Guest reviews for The Nikolai Hotel Hamburg - Leonardo Limited Edition

Beautiful boutique hotel in an amazing location, super friendly and helpful staff (I was able to check in earlier), tasty breakfast with a variety of options. Modern room, with an unusual yet comfortable solution for the shower, toilet, and sink. The only issue was that the room was quite loud and acoustic. Both nights I was woken up by very loud clicking/electronic noises in the middle of the night; toilet flushing from other rooms could be heard as well.

Everything about the Hotel Nikolai met our expectations. Staff were friendly and helpful, in particular the bar staff. There was a good selection of food available at breakfast. Our room was tastefully decorated, clean, practical and comfortable. The hotel is in very convenient location for exploring Hamburg. We would most definitely stay at the Nikolai again if we were to return to Hamburg.

She was extremely helpful with directions and general information. Must tell you paying 25 Euros for a taxi from the Hbn was an very disappointing when viewed on a city map. Suggest the management due something about these unethical cabbies.

Beautiful room. Great staff. Excellent design.

Very authentic hotel. It was clean, stuff was friendly, there were welcome drinks

A very nice hotel, quiet and in a great location.

Beautiful hotel, with friendly staff, and nice quiet rooms. Excellent location in Altstadt with everything in walking distance. Breakfast was really nice with great variety.

One of the best hotels ever stayed in..my old favourite, The Library in Manhattan New York is very like this Hotel...both my favourites now Thank you for a great time . We will be back soon.

The Nikolai Hotel Hamburg is a welcoming haven that beautifully combines modern design with a heartfelt commitment to outstanding customer care. From the moment I arrive, they are enveloped in a warm atmosphere created by attentive staff who genuinely strive to meet every need during their stay. With its elegant decor and thoughtfully selected amenities, the hotel offers a comforting retreat in the heart of the city, making it a perfect choice for anyone looking to unwind or for business travelers seeking a supportive environment.

Nikolai Hotel Hamburg is a jewel as a boutique hotel and yet elite and upscale... Your staff are very helpful. Plastic flowers by the window were to my surprise, please change them with real plants and also please do not be a soulless chain hotel in the future. Stay as you are. Thanks !

i would recommend in the future the hotel provides restaurant and food for the evening which would be great for all guests to have this choice.

Modern, fresh hotel with oustanding design elements. Clean rooms, comfortable bed, Loccitane cosmetics. Fast check-in and check-out process. We were lucky to receive our room well before standard check-in time, it was really nice gesture from hotel personnel. Welcome drink as complimentary drink was given at bar - possibility to have either glass of beer or sparkling wine :) Breakfast was exceptionally good with variety of dishes. Additionally cooked eggs are offered from menu (omlette, benedict, florentine etc). Very nice place with convenient location to all sightseeings.

Great experience. Very friendly and helpful staff. The bedroom was spot on. I'll book again of i need to come to Hamburg for business.

Very nice boutique hotel in a quiet but central location. Only reason for the last missing star is, that no Prosecco was offered at check-in, like it was some years ago.

Amazing hotel and friendly staff, room was nice will definitely be back in the future

The staff were all so welcoming, especially the bar tender we had the first couple of nights, he made a stunning French Martini! The rooms were clean and cosy lovely big comfy bed and plenty of room to get ready with nice little extras in the room. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of options and especially the eggs Benedict! Delicious. Thank you for an amazing stay

The hotel is high standard for a pleasant and nice stay in Hamburg. The location is super convenient to visit the city.

Keep bar opened for people who come to enjoy concerts and post concert receptions. You are minutes away from the great Elbphilharmonie!!

You need to change the flow of check in. The dest is positioned in a wierd way and you can as a guest see other persons data

Super hotel, very close to the Old Town and a short walk to the Harbour area. Would happily stay here again - the rooms were high quality and super comfortable. Only thing I'd say is the breakfast is incredibly highly priced - over €30 each which put us off having it, even though we could expense it. There's a semi-decent bakery on the corner that we used instead.

This hotel offers a distinctive architectural design with meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful details. The room was exceptionally comfortable, providing a tranquil sanctuary - particularly those facing away from the street, ensuring a peaceful and restful sleep. The hotel’s ambiance was remarkably warm and inviting, creating an immediately welcoming environment for guests. Its convenient location allows for a leisurely stroll to the city center, making exploration effortless and enjoyable. A charming touch was the daily complimentary provision of coffee and water, a small but appreciated gesture that enhanced the overall guest experience and demonstrated the hotel’s commitment to hospitality.

Loved this hotel. Beautiful interiors, and felt quite luxurious. We didn't like the layout of the room, the half bedroom, half bathroom mix was just weird. But other than that everything was lovely. Would have been nice to be able to have roomservice. All staff was very friendly and the hotel was very clean. We really enjoyed the breakfast service. We will for sure use this hotel again when we come back to Hamburg. Was very close to everything, and still nice and quiet.

Great service from the hotel staff. Lovely hotel and lovely rooms. The only thing la

This was such a modern hotel in the perfect location. The room was spacious and had everything we needed for a romantic couples weekend away. The staff were always helpful and the whole place gave off a really classy feel. We’d definitely stay again.

The hotel is lovely and the location very near to all attractions. I have slightly marked my review down from 10 out of 10, because when returning from an evening meal we wanted a night cap in the bar and it was closed even though the information in the room said it should of been open

I am quite frequently in Hamburg for business, but always stay at Marriott properties due to the loyalty program. Booking.com has suggested the Nicolai hotel to me a few times, and it looked really good in the photos, but I was suspicious of how it could be all that for such a significantly lower price than Marriott. This time I tried the Nikolai out, and I was absolutely blown away – it is beautiful, feels very luxurious, the staff are well trained and attentive with a great attention to detail. Despite the sumptuous furnishings, which can sometimes make a property harder to clean than more utilitarian designs, this hotel is spotless. The beds are comfortable. The breakfast buffet is great. And the setting on the water is very special. I’ll be back.

Wonderful and comfortable stay with everything you need to feel at home.

The Nikolai is such that it is walkable to everything in the center of town. The room was distinctively decorated with a flair for the modern and no luxury was spared. The only imperfection was that the offsite parking ticket had to be turned in to the hotel after the car left the parking. The city center driving made this difficult. Otherwise this hotel was wonderful.

Schönes Hotel, tolle Betten, super Lage.

Beautiful and cozy hotel
