Hamburg, April 2025: The employees of Hamburg's sister hotels Empire Riverside Hotel and Hotel Hafen Hamburg are now wearing new, modern uniforms. This innovation further strengthens the feeling of togetherness that has grown over the years - more modern, more functional and more stylish than ever. With their new uniforms, both hotels have opted for a successful combination of functionality, comfort and classic design, with the uniforms being individually tailored to each member of staff. The aim was to create a look that combines elegance and comfort - with an individual touch for each hotel.
A fresh, fashionable look arrives
From now on, reception staff at both hotels will be wearing dark blue two-piece suits with a modern fit, combined with classic white blouses or shirts and clean white sneakers. For the summer months, the jacket is replaced by a matching vest. Small details on the uniforms, which are individually selected for each hotel, emphasize the hotel's affiliation. While the Empire Riverside Hotel relies on patterned, purple-colored pocket squares, the staff at the Hotel Hafen Hamburg wear a lapel pin in the shape of a steering wheel on the collar of their jacket. The bar staff at the Tower Bar in the Hotel Hafen Hamburg were outfitted with dark blue pants, white shirts and blouses as well as grey aprons with high-quality genuine leather straps and bronze-colored details. The bar team at the Skyline Bar 20up at the Empire Riverside Hotel, on the other hand, combines the basic outfit with black suspenders with gold and bronze-colored details.
The chambermaids at both hotels wear plain black uniforms. An internal guideline also supports the correct and stylish wearing of the new outfits - so that everyone feels comfortable in the new look and the common appearance remains consistent.
Long-standing employee loyalty as a success factor
While the Hotel Hafen Hamburg looks back on a long history and lives up to it, the Empire Riverside Hotel impresses with its timeless elegance and Hanseatic understatement. Most employees, especially at the Hotel Hafen Hamburg, can look back on a long working relationship and look forward to an even longer future. "Employee loyalty is very important to us. Responding to the needs of our employees means a lot to us and we see it as one of our success factors. Because you can only build on good, long-term relationships. We are very proud of this," says Enrico Ungermann, Director of the sister hotels Empire Riverside and Hotel Hafen Hamburg.
