Opened in 2018, The Fontenay is a work of art in itself and a tribute to the city of Hamburg. This luxury design hotel welcomes you to a lush park on the Outer Alster Lake and captivates with its visionary organic shapes, semicircular walls, light-flooded rooms, and exceptionally high ceilings. With a view of the Alster, you can relax your body and mind in the Fontenay Spa or swim laps in the infinity pool, work out in Hamburg's most beautiful gym on the latest Technogym equipment, or indulge your palate with the haute cuisine of Michelin-starred chef Julian Stowasser in the Lakeside Restaurant. A luxury vacation at the Fontenay puts all the best aspects of the Hanseatic city at your feet – with fascinating architecture, contemporary lifestyle, modern art, and world-class service.
The Fontenay offers 130 exquisite rooms and suites that stand out from the competition with their exceptional room concepts. Marvel at the semicircular walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, light-flooded open spaces, and ceilings that, at a height of 2.85 meters, conjure up a uniquely spacious feeling. The beautiful oak parquet flooring comes from the forests of Fontenay Abbey in France and is perfectly complemented by stylish decorative objects and warm colors such as turquoise, light blue, beige, and royal blue. The Alster and Fontenay suites offer the ultimate in luxury with two bedrooms, huge balconies, and an incomparable view of the Alster.
The gastronomic offerings are equally matched by the unique creativity and exceptional nature of The Fontenay. For breakfast, lunch, and dinner, the Parkview garden restaurant welcomes you with a magnificent summer terrace and a box seat view of the park and the Alster, while at Lakeside, with its spectacular panoramic view of Hamburg, you can enjoy the Michelin-starred haute cuisine of chef Julian Stowasser. Last but not least, The Fontenay also shines with its Atrium Lounge, a 27-meter-high room decorated with 198 satin-finished and scaled panes at the top. If you simply can't get enough of the Hanseatic city, toast your luxury vacation with excellent cocktails in the Fontenay Bar on the sixth floor and fall in love with Hamburg's 320° panorama.
Like no other luxury hotel, The Fontenay effortlessly bridges the gap between wellness, design, and city hotels. The magical spa overlooking the Alster invites you to relax and enjoy yourself. Recharge your batteries in the panoramic relaxation rooms, swim a few laps in the elegant indoor and outdoor infinity pool, or book a private spa suite for plenty of privacy and your own amenities such as a sauna, steam bath, whirlpool, TV, and sensory showers. A modern fitness studio with Technogym strength and cardio equipment is also available around the clock. Last but not least, the Hanseatic city of Hamburg is at your feet: stroll along the Alster hiking trail to Eppendorf, shop on Neuer Wall, drink a coffee in the hip Schanzenviertel district, or explore the legendary Reeperbahn.
A luxury hotel like a sculpture, embodying modern classicism in the heart of northern Germany's metropolis. An individual retreat for individual guests. A declaration of love and homage to the city of Hamburg. Wellness, city, and design hotel all in one. There are many ways to describe the unique concept of the Fontenay, but hardly any do justice to the spectacular building. "Hotel im Park" was the name of architect Jan Störmer's initial design – ultimately, it became an amorphous design hotel with 14,000 square meters of glass surfaces and no front or back. During your luxury stay, experience a true architectural dream at the prestigious address Fontenay 10, located directly on the Alster hiking trail and leading you straight to the hippest neighborhoods, shopping in the city center, or the new HafenCity – if you ever want to leave your elegant domicile.
