When I had to go to Hamburg on a business trip my counterpart adviced (and reserved) the Lindtner hotel for me. I was surprised to find such a nice hotel in this part of the outskirts of Hamburg city. Well appointed, with a very good restaurant and an extensive German breakfast buffet. The room was very nice as well wit free wired internet. all in all a great stay. Story has it that the spa is of an amazing quality as well, but I did not try.

We stayed here for a single night as a stop on our trip to Denmark.
The room was large,bright,clean and with a very nice balcony.
We had dinner and breakfast at the restaurant and that was really really good.
Beyond that we enjoyed a massage treatment at the spa which also was quite good.
Overall we had great stay. We highly recommend it

Please note that the WIFI is not free

I stayed in this hotel twice, This is a relatively small (128 rooms) hotel that gives you the experience of a home away from home. located in the middle of a Harburg ( formerly the capital of a district by that name, now a part of Hamburg) neighborhood, this hotel dips in green, has a very pleasant and efficient (well, they are after all German) staff. In addition the rooms have real keys- and I am a big fan of keys (can't stand these plastic cards :-)

I recently stayed at Lindtner for a 4-day business conference. The hotel's location in a quite suburban area just outside Hamburg makes it a perfect spot for business meetings and/or conferences as there is almost no distraction from the outside and the area is very quiet, peaceful and green. There is a beautiful woods just opposite to the hotel's main entrance - perfect place if you like jogging before breakfast.

On the other hand, if you happen to be looking for some action at night, this is not the right place to be as there are almost no bar, restaurants or entertainment spots nearby (unless you're willing to take a 30 minute drive to Hamburg city).

The hotel interior is nice and comfortable without any "extras". Such are the rooms as well. Clean, relatively spacious, with big windows letting in loads of daylight and good (although a bit small) bathrooms. I wasn't very happy with the quality of my pillow, but the mattress was o.k. One strange thing was the minibar - in my room it was built inside my closet and I had an extra key for it:)).

Breakfast was very good although quite standard and without any surprises. Lunch and dinner were o.k. too but again without any thrills.
