Just hopped on a train from Berlin 🚄 (under 2 hours!) - DB actually delivered on time despite a delayed start. 🏨 Accommodation: Hamburg's lodging options are pricier and fewer than Berlin's. 🌟 Best pick: Quiet Altona district ⚠️ Pro tip: Visit in good weather - rainy Hamburg feels like London's moody twin! ❤️ Why I Loved Hamburg Been dreaming of this city thanks to Hamburg-based influencers - and it totally lived up to expectations!
