The Fontenay Hamburg

Hamburg, Germany

The Fontenay Hamburg

On the banks of the Alster, The Fontenay winds its way around a tree-lined, glass-enclosed courtyard. At the spa on the upper floors, guests swim from the indoor pool to the outdoor one before heading to the sauna overlooking the lake. In the Atrium Lounge, pastries created by Mike Kainz, the hotel’s head pastry chef since February 2026, have enticing names like Eclipse, Zylinder and Roll, referencing a geometric theme that echoes that of the building itself. On the seventh floor, Julian Stowasser cooks at Lakeside, a Michelin-starred restaurant overlooking the city and the lake, whilst the circular bar offers a 320-degree view of the water.

Accommodations

What we like

The design

The sweeping circular walls, and that feeling of stepping aboard an ocean liner.

The panorama

From the infinity pool, the Alster flows past as though you were immersed in it.

The comfort

The signature touches of the Senator Suite: a private chef in the kitchen, a study for reading Hesse.
