The house
Motel OneSailing-themed budget tower
The twenty-story tower strips hotel stays down to modern essentials, borrowing its nautical look from sailing on the nearby Alster.
What it’s good at
Listed
Wavy wooden ceiling slats and maritime graphics recall sailing across the nearby Alster.
Listed
The ground-floor One Lounge serves northern German gins around Arne Jacobsen Egg chairs.
Listed
Lohmühlenstraße station sits at the doorstep, minutes from St. Georg cafés and Alster rowing clubs.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
In St. Georg beside Lohmühlenstraße station, a short walk from Hamburg Hauptbahnhof and the Alster.
The rooms
Rooms are compact and no-frills, with comfortable beds and uncluttered layouts updated during a recent renovation.
At the table
The morning buffet serves organic continental fare, and the bar pours drinks beneath monochrome sailing murals.
How it began
The tower replaced Hamburg's infamous Horrorhaus, a derelict office ruin that sat abandoned on Steindamm for fourteen years.
