Holiday Inn Express - Hamburg South A7-AS42, an IHG Hotel, Эгесторф, Германия

The reception with the red-harired young woman was super friendly and helpful. We felt at home, thanks to her kind presence. The hotel should feel lucky and proud at having such excellent staff. In addtion, the breakfast was excellent - there ewas even a bag placed at the counter, so that we could take a sandwich and fruit with us on our travels.

This was a last-minute choice based on it being in the right place at the right time. We usually like to stay in older, charming hotels, but this was quite the opposite. It’s right near major roads and is very modern. However, we discovered that it met our needs given how tired we were of driving the autobahns. Everything needed for convenience is there, even a real craft brew pub and a modern restaurant with decent food. Though we didn’t have any children with us, we noted that it would be great for families.
