Floating Hotels in Hamburg

Unusual accommodations on houseboats and floating hotels in Hamburg.

Although houseboats are more associated with Amsterdam or Copenhagen, there are museum ships, hotel ships, barracks and even a floating church in Hamburg. The Department of Urban Development and the Environment has published a map of suitable areas for houseboat moorings. This is intended to give Hamburg new urban accents and make it even more attractive as a waterfront metropolis.

A piece of the hamburg harbour panorama Cap San Diego

The White Swan of the South Atlantic - The "Cap San Diego" was built in 1961 as a cargo ship and has been a museum ship with a fixed berth at the Überseebrücke in Hamburg since 1986.

Museum ships as floating hotels in Hamburg

In Hamburg, up to 30 historic sailing and steam ships are anchored. On some of them, e.g. the museum ship Cap San Diego, you can spend the night in the cabins. The Cap San Diego is the largest seaworthy museum cargo ship in the world. The ship can be visited during a guided tour; the tour leads up to the command bridge, into the engine room, the shaft tunnel and the cargo hatches. You can book the saloon or hatches for celebrations or readings; hatch 3 can accommodate 500 guests on three decks. Four single cabins, four double cabins and the captain's suite for one to two persons are available for overnight guests. The cabins are equipped with two beds or one bed, a secretary, two armchairs, a sofa, table, wardrobe and a small refrigerator. Each cabin has its own bathroom. An additional bed can be placed in the cabins on request. The portholes of the double cabins are directly on the Elbe, those of the single cabins on the land side. The on-board bistro offers snacks and Hanseatic cuisine between 10:00 am. and 18:00 pm.

Pensionship Pippilotta

The Pippilotta is a freighter built in 1906 that was bought in 2006 by the journalist and editor-in-chief of the 'Segel Journal' Detlef Jens. After living on the ship with his family, he had it converted into a floating mini hotel with three double cabins and a captain's cabin in 2010. HafenCity is located opposite the berth at Sandtorkai. After a stroll, floating hotels in Hamburg invite you to relax in a stylish ambience.
