Spacious and clean deluxe studio with kitchen, good air con and shower, comfortable bed. I also like the great location, near transport and very safe.
The check in was interesting! We managed to come in when other guests opened the door, otherwise we were not sure how to do it, we couldn't see anybody inside and when we rang the office, all lines were busy, that was at 4pm. Once in though, it was all good!

Location of Clipper Boardinghouse-Hamburg Michel is excellent. Many eateries near the premise. It is also well connected to the nearby public transport at Landungsbruecken and especially near to the harbour and ferry for our trip to Heligoland. And the hotel was kind enough to allow us to leave our luggage for 3 days for our side trip to Heligoland. They even dropped our luggage into our room, especially since we could only re-checked in very late upon arrival from the island. Room is fine but we had some trouble managing the air-conditioning system, but we were just not familiar with the technology, nothing major.

Good location. Near to public transport, cafes and restaurants. There is also a well stocked Rewe supermarket nearly.
The bells sounding from St Michael's church can be a little annoying in terms of noise.
Large, will presented room that was well furnished and supplied with crockery, cutlery etc. The room had a good sized fridge, a microwave/grill, electric stove top, a kettle, Nespresso machine, and a toaster. Larger mugs for tea would have been helpful.
There were only really two items that fell short.
The bed was on the firm side for my preference and all the pillows were saggy.
The check in/check out process was reasonably straightforward although you do need to remember your booking reference number to make things a little easier.
I would would happily stay there again.

A very nice place

There are some hotels you stay at out of necessity and then there are the places you are actually looking forward to. This is one of the latter.

I've now stayed in four different rooms (including the suite) and loved them all. All of them have been spacious and the place had all the amenities I wanted.

Love the area it's situated in, that there's a parking garage, the always welcoming staff and the very nice beds.

Often, when on a road trip thru Germany, I'll gladly take a detour just to stay here. :-)

The apartment is located in a very good place where tourist attractions are nearby and a supermarket(REWE) is just 1 min walk.

The room was clean and big enough. Kitchen and cooking equipments were included so we could cook our dinner and breakfast ourselves.

The most disappointed thing is that air conditioning was not installed in the room. Since we arrived at the time heat wave just passed, it was not easy to stay without air-con.

The hotel is well situated close to a train station, the ElbPhilharmonie and the old Hanseatic port. We had a spacious \"deluxe\" room facing the restaurants on the street. It was lovely to have breakfast there in the morning sunshine. In the evenings, we closed the bedroom window to cut down on any sounds from the street. The kitchen was well equipped for a short stay. Note that they only clean the room every three days - you need to wash dishes daily to have enough for the next meal.

Spacious room

Lovely, friendly staff. The room was clean and large with everything we could have wanted. It's in a great place. Only issue was the noise at night as our room was directly above a very popular restaurant. It didn't cause too much problem but we had to play classical music on the radio to drown it out. I would recommend Hans Clipper Haus, maybe take ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

While the room was comfortable and nicely furnished, the service was disappointing. I was there with a colleague on business and from check-in, requested two separate bills as the costs were shared. The day before check out, I reminded the staff I required two bills and they said this would be delivered to my room later in the day. When I returned, they had printed out a single bill with only one name. The next morning, we had to rush to make our flight as we were stuck at front desk explaining that, as requested and agreed, we needed a bill with BOTH names on. It was finally emailed 2 days later. The room wasn't the cleanest (stains on bedroom wall, hair in bathtub, a lot of food crumbs on the sofa) and when the cleaning staff came to the room after a few days, they took the soap and hair shampoo bottles but did not replace them so we had to go buy our own! The location is very good but the Portuguese Quarter is loud and there is a lot of smoking and yelling, etc. so this may not be best for business or family travellers.

Perfect base for Hamburg

The place is really clean and well equipped. The staff are fantastic and really helpful before and during your stay! The apartment was great... really spacious and you absolutely cannot fault it. The only thing that would pull it down is probably not something they can do much about. We stayed during the heatwave and there are no aircon or fans so it was pretty uncomfortable at night. I’m not sure it’s completely fair to hold that against the property. If you visit during a normal temperature, it will no doubt be very comfortable as the bed linen is lovely.
The apartment is really close to a train line and supermarket so prime location.
Would highly recommend!!

Good location close to all tourist spots and harbo

Courteous and friendly reception staff, adequate internet, good location, and laundry facilities. Good location near the harbor and close to the S bahn with direct access to the city center and airport.

Very noisy.. Had to upgrade (€30 daily more) to a duplex business apt (very inconvenient negotiating stairs in our mid to late 60s) with 2 TVs we did not view and a balcony we did use due to the noise outside as the comfort apt we were allocated, although spacious, was not the one in the photo with the sofa adjacent to the bed. Moved in the middle of our stay (as business apt was not available for our entire stay period and my husband fell making the duplex layout inconvenient as the bathroom was on the 1rst floor) to a very nice comfort apt as the one that was pictured when we reserved. It was very nice, although noisy, with the sitting area far from the bed and the bed area offered the privacy we wanted.
I was alerted from the previous reviews and we happily and willingly brought our Nespresso coffee capsules, shampoo, shower gel, shower cap and laundry detergent with us ascthe hotel only privides 2 Nespresso capsules and shampoo/shower gel for one person. The apt is cleaned every 3 days when they replenish the 2 coffee capsules but no shampoo and shower gel.
Additionally, the weather was warm and there was no air conditioning forcing us to keep the windows open to a noisy park full of noisy, homeless people and children
until late (11:00 p.m.).
