The Empire Riverside Hotel was a great option for a first time visit to Hamburg! Located in St Pauli between the Reeperbahn and the St Pauli Piers, you had walking access to not only St Pauli itself, but also Altona, Neustadt, and the City Centre, all within roughly 20-30 minutes. Having easy access to the Piers, made it easy to see the area by water, on either a local city cruise or a river cruise of the Elbe. St Pauli is also full of shops and restaurants, which means you have easy access to food. And, the hotel itself was great, offering amazing views of the surrounding area. The staff were great and able to accommodate any issues that came up. Highly recommend staying at the Empire if you’re visiting Hamburg or St Pauli.

The property is located near the port however directly behind the hotel is the St Pauli area which is what we would consider the red light area. A lot of strip shows and appeared to be girls working on the side street. Probably not a family area. In saying that it was close to the Beatles walking tours and close walking distance down to pier and back into the city centre. The hotel was good expensive for what we got and the air conditioning not working so room was 26 degrees and it was only 28 degrees outside so was not comfortable coming in from the heat. We did eventually get moved to another room which the air conditioning was set to 23 degrees so better. The cocktail bar on 20th floor had a nice view over the port at night.

Staff was very friendly. Needed an early check-in and wad able to get it for an additional cost (worth it). View and the room was great! Only thing that was tough to figure out was the AC unit. Location of the hotel was great. Once of the nicest hotels I’ve stayed at and would stay here again.

The architecture of the building is very beautiful, the room itself is small considering the price of stay. You are only paying for the view from your room and some freebies provided. For a 4 star hotel, the service I experienced was poor. I requested room service and was promised that they would arrive at a specified time, however they did not arrive. The toilet in my room was clogged and I was not able to use this during my stay.

Lovely hotels with wonderful rooms and all the basic amenities. Would recommend staying as long as you like exercise because the key cards demagnetize if you look at them wrong — they must be praised and cajoled and need never be near anything that lets off the slightest electronic signal or you’ll be back downstairs to rekey the card yet again — 3 night stay and I think I had to do it about 8 times this trip. Staff is wonderful and lovely and the sushi is divine

This hotel was a lovely option near the river. There are loads of dining and drinking options nearby. The room was lovely and the view, amazing! We didn't opt for breakfast but the sushi made to order was outstanding!!! The roof top bar on level 20 is wonderful for an evening cocktail and hotel guests are given a priority are.

Upgraded to a premium room with king size bed……what we got was 2 single beds pushed together and 2 single duvets! On the 19th floor with great views…until the nightclub on the 20th floor kicks In until 1am every night. Prices on drinks lists were different to the bill, so check all your receipts before you pay! Espresso martinis advertised at €11 and charged at €12. Restaurants closed on Saturday and Sunday nights to residents. Stay at a lot of hotels and this was not one of the worst but wouldn’t stay here again.

Construction was going on above our room for two hours after we arrived, exceptionally loud. The room was exceedingly hot and the air conditioner also was quite noisy. Staff provided us with a room fan during the night. The view was amazing, but we had to keep the curtains closed in the morning due to the sun shining into the hot room. The breakfast buffet was superb, and we also enjoyed our dinner in the hotel .
