  There is also a Mandarin Oriental offer that runs until next year (£100 back on £500 by 28/02/22).

  I had been booked to stay in that Hilton Curio in Hamburg at the beginning of October this year. Hilton informed everyone with a forward booking via email on 27th July 2021 that the hotel would be leaving the chain.

  Hamburg’s population is 1.85 m. So I would characterize Hilton’s remaining presence (one Hampton) as very weak.

  IHG has good coverage, albeit mainly in the midscale segment. Radisson has decent coverage (only one hotel in the city center, but it has 556 rooms, waay more than the Hampton).

  Accor has excellent coverage. So does Marriott. Premier Inn recently gained a few hotels.

  Hampton is probably a no-go. The many Hilton afficinados will ensure elevated prices and poor availabilities.

    Agree. Bummer.

      Get down the Park Hyatt. Very cheap, high quality and Emyr can get you €85 food credit and free brekky even on a one night stay.

    There’s only one other Hilton, the Hampton in Kiel, within a three hour drive range from Hamburg. The closest Hiltons are in Berlin and Dusseldorf.

  We stayed at that Curio with friends for the Christmas markets and really enjoyed it. The hotel cocktail bar was quite something. I was taken by how little they made of their Hilton affiliation though (even for a curio) so not that surprised they left.

  The annoying thing about the Reichshof is that I assume because it left Hilton it can no longer be booked in a BA holiday.

  Usual answer – totally depends whose credit card machines they are using. As STK is a totally separate company I reckon this does not get processed as Melia as so won’t count. You have more chance on the roof but still not certain.
