HAMBURG ISSUE 26 Feb 2005

The Gastwerk Hotel, in the west of Hamburg, stands as a model of the city's openness, with its elegant liberality, sleek aesthetics and fusion of the traditional with the contemporary.

It has 135 hotel rooms - 3 large suites, 56 individually designed lofts and junior suites, 34 business rooms and 42 classic rooms - decked in light, harmonious fabrics and natural materials.

Five congress and meeting rooms, up to 250 square metres in size, are equipped with the latest presentation equipment, as well as six smaller workshop rooms and an open business lounge - all available for corporate events and conferences. A light, friendly ambience with lots of natural light makes for a comfortable working atmosphere.

No less inspiring is the restaurant - Gastwerk "Da Caio" impresses with its Italian specialities and extraordinary selection of wines.
