Motel One Am Michel

Motel One Am Michel Review

Part of the Motel One chain, this hotel is ideal for those looking for a trendy, design-minded, yet inexpensive base from which to explore Hamburg. Bed linens are sumptuous, towels are lush, and the bed is crowned with real leather and dark wood. The bathrooms have rainfall showerheads, and the shampoo and conditioner are made from organic ingredients. There are also flat-screen TVs. However, the rooms are small and lack basics like telephones, chairs, closets (there is a bar for hanging clothes), and information about the hotel or the city in the guestrooms (you can't call anyone to ask a question, either). The coffee machines and juice dispenser used at breakfast are hidden behind panels in the lobby, which is a breakfast room in the morning and a bar at night. Despite this efficiency, there can be chaos at breakfast. This central location—there are four Motel One's in Hamburg—is close to the convention center, Reeperbahn, St. Michaelis Kirche, and Planten un Blomen.
