Bordering the Sachsenwald, Schleswig-Holstein's largest forest, this privately owned property offers 49 individually styled rooms and suites.
Run by the same family, Waldhaus Reinbek furnishes each room and suite differently, and every guest is welcomed with a complimentary 750 ml bottle of mineral water.
The restaurant, with its open show kitchen, serves creative, seasonal dishes, while the American Bar is the place to wind down over a glass of wine or a cocktail in the evening.
Reinbek S-Bahn station is about a 15-minute walk from the hotel, with trains reaching Hamburg's main station in around 30 minutes.
