Come for the design. Stay for the experience.
Come for the design. Stay for the experience.
This is our company philosophy for an unforgettable stay.
Our Vision
To bring the historic brick architecture of Hamburg’s first design hotel to life with a spirit that is tangible for everyone and makes the Gastwerk Hotel truly distinctive.
This requires a way of feeling, perceiving and thinking that goes far beyond standard hotel service – an expression of personal attitude and authenticity in each individual.
The Gastwerk Hotel should be a place where all employees feel at home, valued and understood, and where they can meet travellers and guests with passion and genuine dedication.
Our actions are guided by conviction, sincerity and appreciation – not only towards ourselves and our guests, but also towards our colleagues, partners and suppliers.

Our Mission
Only those who are truly happy and content within themselves are able to genuinely satisfy our guests and meet them with passion and dedication. Our actions are designed to support and accompany our employees on this journey.
Anyone who becomes part of our team, our Gastwerk family, can feel this spirit and lives the values that define our corporate philosophy.
