captures Hamburg’s vibrant energy, while also offering our guests the
reassurance and benefits that come with the Hilton name and HHonors

Hamburg. The hotel also boasts a 250 meter recreation and fitness
facility, where guests can access the fully equipped gym or indulge in

“The Reichshof’s 20th century charm was meticulously
preserved during the hotel’s extensive renovation by leading artisans,”
said Folke Sievers, general manager, Reichshof Hamburg. “Modern
technology and amenities have been seamlessly blended during the
restoration to ensure guests enjoy both the hotel’s historic character
and contemporary comforts. We are delighted to return the hotel to its
‘Roaring Twenties’ prime and as a Curio – A Collection by Hilton hotel,
look forward to sharing it with an extended reach of guests.”
Renowned local gastronomist Frank Bertram joins the Reichshof as chef de
cuisine, moving his restaurant slowman to the hotel. The hotel
offers guests and locals a variety of dining options including an à la
carte menu in the hotel’s dining room, handmade sushi and delicious
cakes in the lobby, and the best club sandwich in Hamburg at the hotel’s
legendary bar. Bertram is famed for his dedication to high-quality
