Aparthotels & serviced apartments in Hamburg

50 stays · 33 aparthotels and 17 serviced apartments · from €94/night

Hamburg has Germany's largest port and is home to major media names such as NDR, Der Spiegel and Die Zeit, so it draws a steady mix of business travellers, project workers and families on city breaks. Aparthotels and serviced apartments in Hamburg suit those trips well: a kitchen and separate living space make a week-long assignment or a family visit easier, and longer stays let you settle into one of the city's distinctive neighbourhoods rather than just its centre.

Eimsbüttel is a residential district of tree-lined streets and parks north-west of the centre, popular with people who want a local base. The Isemarkt, one of the city's best-known street markets, runs under the elevated U3 line in neighbouring Harvestehude, to the east.

Getting around Hamburg

From Hamburg Airport, the S-Bahn S1 runs from a station directly beneath the terminals to the Hauptbahnhof in about 25 minutes, every 10 minutes between 6am and 11pm and every 20 minutes outside those hours. Travelling to the airport, board one of the front three carriages, as the train divides at Ohlsdorf.

The HVV network combines four U-Bahn lines, the S-Bahn, an extensive bus network with night services, and the HADAG harbour ferries, which use regular HVV tickets and make a cheap way to see the port. The Deutschlandticket is valid across the network, and the Hamburg Card adds free public transport with discounts on attractions. StadtRAD bike hire stations are spread across the city.

Living in Hamburg for longer

For fresh food, the Isemarkt runs on Tuesday and Friday mornings with around 200 stalls under the U3 viaduct between Hoheluftbrücke and Eppendorfer Baum, and other districts hold their own weekly outdoor markets. A Deutschlandticket subscription is usually the simplest option for a month or more of daily travel.

Residential districts such as Eimsbüttel, Ottensen and Winterhude feel more like home than the centre and are all well connected by U-Bahn or S-Bahn. If you are moving for work, see our guide to serviced apartments for relocation.

When to visit Hamburg

Hamburg has a temperate maritime climate, with average highs from around 4°C in January to about 23°C in July and August, and rain spread across the year. Pack waterproofs whatever the season; late spring and summer have the longest days for walking along the Elbe and the Alster.

The port's birthday, the Hafengeburtstag, takes over the waterfront in May with ship parades. The Hamburger DOM funfair runs three times a year, in spring, summer and late autumn to early winter. The Reeperbahn Festival fills St. Pauli's clubs in September, and Christmas markets open across the city from late November.

Public transport is excellent and even includes the harbour ferries, so you can base yourself in a quieter residential district and still reach the sights quickly. For more German city stays, see Berlin and Bremen.
