What they say
Michelin Selected

Also in Forbes Travel Guide.
Housed in the early 20th-century Levantehaus, once a Hanseatic office building, Conrad Hamburg brings contemporary hospitality into a landmark setting.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Mönckebergstraße's shopping promenade sits right outside, and the Binnenalster is a five-minute walk away.

The rooms
Rooms take their deep navy and copper palette from maritime Hamburg, and large windows look across the city.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Blue mosaic tiles line the vaulted pool hall, where upholstered daybeds rest between glowing green columns.
The spa and gym
Treadmills and weight benches fill the gym, and the spa includes a Finnish sauna and longevity treatment rooms.
GRETA OTO Bar
Bartenders shake Greta Oto Pisco Sours at the central oval counter, set beneath an illuminated canopy.
Housed within the storied 1912 Levantehaus building, the luxury hotel marries the building’s art nouveau grandeur with sleek copper accents, maritime-inflected palettes and an eye-catching lead-glass ceiling that spans every floor.
At the table
GRETA OTO serves Latin American cuisine indoors under an illuminated column, or outside on the timber-decked courtyard terrace.
How it began
The building was constructed in 1912 for the Deutsche Levante shipping line, and the founding Bach family still owns it.
