Grand Elysee Hamburg is one of the city's largest and most fully equipped five-star hotels, privately owned and operated for more than forty years, with 510 rooms including 18 suites spread across the elegant Rotherbaum quarter. The scale is unusual for a German five-star, and it lets the property run a wellness floor that few competitors can match.
Elyseum Wellness & Spa is the centrepiece: an indoor swimming pool, a sauna complex, a steam bath, a shower grotto, a whirlpool, and a Kneipp pool for hydrotherapy round out a properly comprehensive wellness offering. The fitness studio is free for guests and the treatment menu covers massages, facials, and body scrubs in the same calm environment.
For travelers who want sauna depth rather than a single hotel sauna as an afterthought, Grand Elysee is the Hamburg pick. Five restaurants and three bars cover the dining side — from European specialties to a patisserie and a steakhouse — and the position gives easy walking access to Alster lake, Jungfernstieg, and the city's culture and shopping quarters.
