The one star is there for the good taste. Everything else could not be done at all! I was there with 3 friends for breakfast and we waited 30-45 minutes for the food which is way too expensive!!! 12,90€ for a small avocado bread that doesn't even fill your stomach?!?! My friends and I had to have breakfast again after breakfast, I guess that's not meant to be the case, is it?
So it's one thing if you wait a long time for the food but if it doesn't even fill your stomach then that's an absolute naughtiness for the price!!!

I don't know why some people suggest to come here. It is a dull and boring place compared to the rest of Hamburg. Not even the modern buildings are that nice.

If you find yourself here, stay in Speicherstadt only, but don't bother going to HafenCity unless you are into expensive hotels and restaurants.

The city includes the old warehouse district as well as new developments along the old Harbor like the Elbphilharmonie concert hall. The area offers a striking contrast with old brick warehouses and modern glass fronted developments a short distance from each other. And the many canals add to the charm.

An obvious visit looking through all recommendations of must-sees in Hamburg. We did not see the magic of the area with the main purpose being modern housing.

They really make this part of Hamburg worthwhile to visit, look at impressive architecture, visit restaurants, oor just walk around. Easy accessible by public transport or bike.

The HafenCity has been my favourite part of Hamburg.
It's very modern and it shows how the architects are pushing forward the landscape but maintening perfect harmony with the other areas of the city.

This is the new city in Hamburg but it did not disappoint. The Hamburg feel still there but modernized and more industrial feel. I stayed here for 4 nights and i enjoyed the area of security and so clean and not crowded bec there is not much touristy spots around here. The train station and a small park are just around the corner as well. Quite peaceful place to stay.

The HafenCity is a good place to explore on foot. I was there last week and discovered new areas. I especially liked the exhibition of photos of Iceland, because I was there for one week in April. The photos are super and really portray the atmosphere of the country.
