Hotel for World Cup?

Myself and three other guys will be staying in Hamburg as it is where the USA will be staying during the World Cup.

Have read that the Reeperbahn (sp?) is where the nightlife is, but would like to know any hotel recommendations that are close to this area?

We will look at any range (1 to 5 star), so any recommendations are appreciated..

Thanks!

There is not only the Reeperbahn.

Hamburg has - like all bigger German cities - an excellent public transport network

For hotels see the Hamburg Tourism site or check

Recommendations won%26#39;t help much. You have to find a affordable hotel with free beds in first place.

The situation won%26#39;t get any better after the drawing on 9th December. Guess that many who have not booked yet will start to book when they know where their team is playing.

The lower star rated hotels are the easier to book as most of the big ones are booked already!

However the draw did not provide Hamburg with especially attractive fixtures so some of the bookings may be cancelled.

Try the usual websites advertised on Trip SAdvisor. As Alabada says, there is an excellent train and bus network so as long asyou are near a U or S bahn then you will get about Hamburg easily enough.

Thanks for your help and the websites.

I have actually found a few reasonable hotels available, but now the challenge will be for Gelsenkirchen, Kaiserslautern and Nuremberg---but those are whole other posts!!

Good luck to USA in the finals and enjoy the German bier!

I fear that the USA won%26#39;t do as well as Germany given the groupings...
