Review of Hotel Louis C. Jacob

This refined, 18th-century hotel by the Elbe river has art-adorned walls. It's 5.3 miles from St. Pauli Piers and 6.8 miles from the Elbe Philharmonic Hall.

Individually designed rooms feature parquet floors, natural stone bathrooms with marble, and walk-in closets. Some offer balconies (complete with binoculars) providing views of the harbor or garden. Suites, some over 2 floors, add separate living areas, some with antique furnishings.

There's a fine-dining restaurant with French cuisine, plus a wine cellar, a relaxed bar offering high tea, and a river-view cafe serving breakfast and coffee. A spa features a sauna and a whirlpool tub.
