Hamburg, Germany | 2020
The historic Hotel Hafen Hamburg enchants with its prime location by the harbor, offering breathtaking views of the port and “Landungsbrücken” (“landing bridges”, i.e. piers), while also boasting a rich history. Originally built in 1858 as a seamen’s home and converted into a hotel 120 years later, it reflects the evolution of Hamburg’s shipping industry and the significance of the Hamburg Harbor, becoming a true symbol of Hanseatic hospitality. The 2019 renovation of the restaurant created a unique ambiance inspired by the harbor. Telescopic lights cast a classic, elegant glow, while wooden elements recall ship planks and decks. Rugged rivets and supports allude to the harbor’s industrial structures and the soft, rounded furniture, inspired by ship cabins, adds a cozy and inviting touch.
