A step towards normality - hardly any other topic has been discussed as extensively worldwide as the Corona pandemic. Now it's time for a change. That's why we are very pleased that this is a step in the right direction. The Bundestag (German Parliament) and the Hamburg Senate have decided to reintroduce the 3G regulation and thus to partially abandon the 2G-Plus regulation that has been in force up to now.

What does this mean?

A hotel or restaurant guest must either be fully vaccinated, recovered or tested. This means that guests who have neither a vaccination nor a convalescent certificate will need a negative Corona test certificate in order to stay with us or visit our restaurants and bars.
All those who can show one of these three documents can stay with us. A valid proof is equivalent to any document accepted in the EU, whether paper or digital.

If you look around and take a look at our party mile, the "Hamburg Kiez" or the trendy "Sternschanze" district, you will already see the first partying people on the streets again. Many clubs and bars have already reopened, bringing a bit of normality into all our lives. Going to the bar without a mask - an idea that may soon become reality. It hasn't been imaginable for a long time, so we're all the more pleased that the hustle and bustle we love about Hamburg is slowly getting going again.
