"Hamburg’s Steigenberger Hotel sums up the Fleetinsel district in a single façade — staggered Hanseatic bricks, simultaneously historic and modern, flanked by canals, easily walkable from any city fixture that comes to mind. Inside, it’s sleek minimalism scaled up for the business travel set, with a slight Buddhist theme to the artwork in the public spaces. Rooms make good use of recessed lighting and mid-century-inspired furnishings, especially when the view captures the energy of the Alsterfleet below." - Tablet Hotels
