🇩🇪 Hamburg Travel Guide: Where to Stay, Eat & Get Around

First time in Germany? Hamburg stole my heart—spacious, clean, and surprisingly safe! 🏨 Stay: IntercityHotel Hamburg-Barmbek ✅ Why we loved it: Spacious & clean rooms Great value: €393 for 2 rooms × 2 nights Convenient location: 2-min walk to U-Bahn (20 mins to downtown, 13 mins to airport) 1-min walk to Aldi for snacks! 🚆 Transport: HVV Group Ticket €13.11/day for up to 5 people (unlimited metro/bus/ferry rides after 9AM). Pro tip: Download the HVV app for easy ticket purchases. 🍽️ Food Heaven! (Coming from Ireland, Hamburg was a revelation!) 1️⃣ Hofbräu Hamburg 🍖 Must-try: Crispy pork knuckle + sauerkraut salad (perfect combo!). 2️⃣ Yin Seafood Restaurant 🦞 Seafood porridge = mind-blowing! Also loved the spicy boiled fish. 3️⃣ Ngan Tinh Vietnamesisches Restaurant 🍜 Pork noodle soup & sour-spicy noodles (#53) = chef’s kiss! 📸 More highly-rated restaurants in my pics—check them out! ⚠️ Safety Note Avoid lingering near Hauptbahnhof Süd (central station’s south exit)—sketchy crowds. #HamburgTravel #GermanyGuide #FoodieParadise #BudgetTravel #EuropeAdventures ✨
