Yoho Ho(tel) - Where Santa stays in Hamburg?

Advantages: Something a bit different from your regular German city hotels
Disadvantages: Limited choice in the restaurant

Yoho is the abbreviation for the 'Youth Hotel' and it's located in Hamburg. I'll admit that when I was told to book it for a visit earlier this week, I did worry that it might be like a youth hostel. Perhaps before I checked out in the morning they would make me clean my room or wash the dishes. Fortunately neither was the case, and despite the strange name, I found a rather charming modern hotel located in a nice old historic building. The main criteria by which they justify the name is that they offer slightly lower prices for guests who are under 26. Sadly nothing I can benefit from any more. It's not - so far as I can tell - in any way linked with the Yo! Sushi brand so that may be a relief to some and a disappointment to others.

Review of Yoho, Hamburg

HAMBURG MARRIOTT HOTEL

Advantages: Lovely hotel, excellent rooms and service
Disadvantages: None really!

~~~HAMBURG MARRIOTT HOTEL~~~ As well as having stayed at the Renaissance Hotel in Hamburg several times, I have also stayed at the Renaissance sister hotel, the Marriott, located on ABC Strasse in the exclusive shopping and dining part of the city of Hamburg. The hotel is well located and transfer time from the airport (Hamburg) is under 20 minutes or so with taxi fares also being under 20Euros (£13-£15). Just outside o f the hotel you will find a glittering array of upmarket shops and small boutiques and the hotel is located in a very quiet area and all of the rooms are exceptionally quiet. Arriving at the hotel: As you enter the hotel, the lobby is sumptuous and well-kept, and there are always plenty of bellhops to help with your bags. Check-in is always smooth and painless, and there is a good selection of local interest ...

Review of Marriott Hamburg Treudelberg, Hamburg

Harvest: My introduction to Neil Young

Advantages: Alternative country/rock classic
Disadvantages: none

From the delicate opening bars of "Out on the Weekend" till the closing sunrise of "Words", Harvest paints an emotional portrait of the post 60's world as seen through the eyes of Neil Young, godfather of alternative rock and grunge. Harvest is Neil Young's biggest selling album that still resonates today. It is a must have album for Neil Young fans and fans of alternative music across the world in this post grunge post britpop era. It is an unashamed alternative country album with contributions from notable country singers James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt, with further involvement of NY stalwarts David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash. A gentle melancholia fills each song, and is one of the first things which strikes you about this record. Although this may have been due, in part, to the heavy medication which Neil was ...
