The Renaissance Hotel is housed in a traditional Hanseatic red brick building, which is integrated into the elegant 'Hanse Viertel', Europe's longest shopping arcade. The 205 guestrooms and suites are spacious, comfortable and appointed in a contemporary Anglo Hanseatic theme. Their subtle tones offer a sense of elegant yet functional refuge to both business and leisure travellers. Many rooms have attractive views of Hamburg's bustling city centre. The subtly lit restaurant, which is located on the ground floor, is decorated and furnished in different brown shades, partly featuring bare brick walls which lend it a very traditional atmosphere. It entices with its excellent cuisine underlined by regional flavours. The elegant bar has the same colour scheme as the restaurant and a piano for live entertainment.
