Has anyone been to Hamburg recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there 6 months ago and had a mixed time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers
Avoid Herbertstraße? Or is it fine?

I was there in January and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $50/day all-in.
My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to get a local SIM.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
