Empire Riverside Hotel

In the heart of St. Pauli, between the harbor, the Elbe River and the Reeperbahn, the impressive bronze-clad tower of the Empire Riverside Hotel – penned by British star architect David Chipperfield – rises 76 meters into the sky. The timeless elegance and Hanseatic understatement of the design and lifestyle hotel have dominated Hamburg’s skyline and harbor crown since it opened in 2007.
In the 327 rooms and 12 suites, floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows provide a unique view of Hamburg and the Elbe River. Guests can enjoy and linger in the “Restaurant waterkant,” the “Lounge David’s” and the “Skyline Bar 20up.” In addition to a spa area with steam bath and sauna, the Empire Riverside Hotel also offers a training area and event rooms for up to 1000 people.
