The Fontenay
Outer Alster · Rotherbaum · Hamburg
A sculptural, curving hotel on the shore of the Outer Alster, opened in 2018, with a rooftop bar and a pool overlooking the lake.
Book direct
The best rooms and upgrades usually go to guests who book with the hotel itself, by phone or through its own website.
Ask for the history
Grand hotels are proud of their past. Ask the concierge which suite was whose; the answer is often worth the question.
Dress for the public rooms
Bars and restaurants in palace hotels expect smart dress in the evening, and a few still ask for a jacket.
