The luxurious Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten is the epitome of a European Grand Hotel. Ever since 1897, the elegant hotel by the Inner Alster Lake has provided guests from all over the world with charming luxury and timeless elegance in the heart of the Hanseatic city, close to several cultural and architectural sights, a number of shopping opportunities and the Hamburg Messe and Congress Centre. No two rooms are alike; each one is a unique masterpiece. The jewel in the crown is the Bel Etage: after all, the rooms and suites on the fifth floor boast balconies with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Alster lake and are the perfect place to relax and unwind. The new and contemporary design in keeping with the aura of a grand hotel creates an exceptionally refreshing appearance, with different colour schemes brought to life in an effective yet subtle manner in the rooms. Light cream shades harmonise beautifully with splashes of gold, kiwi, bluish grey, crimson, blackberry and lilac. Sophisticated materials and expert craft smanship do justice to even the most exacting demands.
