Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten

Hamburg is the centre o Germany’s musical universe, thanks to its unique Elbphilharmonie and Laeiszhalle concert halls. I was heading for this culture, and the city’s famous outer and inner lakes and harbour. I also was drawn to a treasure trove of eating and drinking offerings, the 1897-vintage Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten, and staying there turned out to be theatre all the way.
