XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

For more than 200 years, the Hotel Louis C. Jacob has stood for exclusive pleasure, the charm of private atmosphere and excellent service. In a unique location on the banks of the river Elbe and within easy reach of Hamburg’s city centre, it is comfortably removed from the hustle and bustle of the city; tradition and modern hotel comfort have been successfully combined.

Timeless elegance and hanseatically reticent design are characteristics of the style of the hotel, which allows the guests to immerse themselves in an unforgettable world. The hotel has 85 exclusively furnished rooms and suites, some of which have spectacular views over the river Elbe.

A unique view of the Elbe is afforded from below the fresh green canopy of the famous lime–tree terrace. From there, guests can enjoy the summer at its most unforgettable. The modern kitchen of the chef, Thomas Martin, is creative and refined but not over–fashionable. Critics tend to classify the Jacob’s Restaurant as the best address in Northern Germany.
