We were looking for a hotel near Hamburg Hauptbahnhof and we found this hotel more economic than the other ones. Actually, if you will use the hotel only for sleep and you are a deep sleeper, this hotel is worth to stay. 

The hotel employees were smooth-faced and helpfull. We asked for an extra pillow and they give us more pillows.

But even we were one step up to the reception, the internet connection was horrible... Even if in corridors, the wifi signal was weak.

Also, the security is not so good as the position of the hotel.There were some clubs which have big fights in front of them.

Good position with bad hotel conditions

We stayed here for two nights (Friday and Saturday). The hotel is nothing special but it's also not as awful (in my opinion) as the other reviews might suggest. I'd break down my experience as follows:

Positives:

1. Excellent location really nearby to the Hauptbahnhof (so great when coming from and going to the airport);

2. There's actually a lovely pub at the end of the road on the corner, heading in the direction of the Hauptbahnhof, which stays open til quite late and has a nice, friendly atmosphere. Tasty draught lager;

3. We had an ensuite shower and toilet, both of which were very clean. Decoration nothing special, but it was definitely clean; 

4. Bedroom also really clean, as were the beds and the bed sheets, and nicely ironed. We got 2 towels each, nice and clean;

5. Nice thick curtains which blocked out the light; 

6. There's shampoo/body wash available in the shower; and

7. Quiet at night - no disturbances. 

Negatives:

1. Don't expect good customer care;

2. Our room did have a musky smell, a bit like maybe someone had smoked there before, but can't be sure;

3. It's not 'pretty' - it's just a bog standard hotel with rooms. That's it;

4. The 'double bed' is actually two twin beds pushed together, so there is the separation between the two mattresses;

5. Be careful when booking as on the hostel.com website, as we thought we had booked two doubles for four people, but we had actually only booked one bed for two people. When we called the hotel in advance to sort this out, they weren't very helpful and *said* it was sorted, but when we arrived it hadn't been! Luckily they had another room free; and

6. You can leave your bags there after checking out (some hotels have lockers). However, just down the road at the Hauptbahnhof there are loads of lockers where you can leave your bags for 24 hours. A big locker costs €4 and a small locker costs €6. As an example of size, we fitted in the small locker a large bag, one rucksack and a small suitcase (like easyJet hand-luggage size). 

So overall, if you're just looking for a well-located room where you will be spending very little time, this hotel is fine, but certainly no frills! 

 No frills but OK

We arrived in Hamburg late night without reservations, only to everything was booked! The Nord Hotel kept us from sleeping in the train station. Our room was clean, quiet & cheap. There is no elevator and the bathroom is down the hall.
The common bath and shower rooms were spotless! No breakfast was offered. In a pinch we'd stay there again without hesitation.

Good stop for one night

Apart from the location 2 mins walk from the main train station, this hotel was pretty terrible. My room was less than 8 m2 with shabby quality of sink and cupboards. The first other occupant I saw on arrival was a mouse. No joke. There was a small shared toilet for too many people. Not nice when you're sitting there, doing your 'business' and people move the door handle several time. Wifi was not available in my room, only downstairs next to the reception. 
      

Only location was good

First of all, the location of the hotel is not in the safest area. Though the police regulates the streets at all times, I did not feel too safe. That happened anyways to be the least of our problems with the (short) stay, as we - after we shut the lights to sleep - heard strange noises and discovered mice in our room. We had to leave and find another hotel. In addition to the smell of strong smoke and poor service, I would definitely not recommend this hotel. 

Mice in hotel room

As a whole this was quite an experience, that I am not going to repeat, ever again! The hotel demanded a cash deposit of 30 euros for the room keys. The room smelled like a storage for dirty clothes. WLAN did not work in my room, the signal was too weak. TV was installed on the wall in the height of about 2 m from the floor. So, it nice to watch it standing up. Shower and WC were shared. The lights were broken at the shower, so I had to be showering in the dark. The hotel staff refused to answer my questions about how to find some Hamburg addresses and how to find the public transport going there. The German man working at the check in desk had no manners and he had no idea how be friendly nor polite! So, I got to be bullied and insulted while I was leaving the hotel. This is the hotel where the customer is not right! On top of this I was harassed by prostitutes each evening when I was returning back to the hotel. So, avoid this hotel like the plague!
