It doesn’t always have to be St. Pauli!


Without a doubt, St. Pauli, home to the harbour and the Reeperbahn, is one of the most exciting districts of Hamburg. But there’s much more to the city than St. Pauli. Whether you’re looking for a bar, restaurant or suggestions for a trip to the surrounding countryside, Calido Cumbassa, a page at the ARCOTEL Onyx, always has a couple of good tips up his sleeve for our guests.

Küchenwerkstatt
The name says it all at this restaurant, with its strong emphasis on culinary skills. Moreover, seasonal creations, be they fish, meat or vegetables, really are seasonal. In 2009 the restaurant was awarded a Michelin star. You can simply taste the fact that chef Gerald Zogbaum insists that everything that comes onto your plate is fresh and homemade. And he loves to surprise guests by using traditional, almost forgotten, types of vegetables or herbs in his dishes.

GOLEM
If you are looking for something beyond the Hamburg mainstream, then I would recommend the GOLEM.This is a bar where skilfully mixed cocktails, champagne and draught beer meet in a most unconventional fashion. No one is chasing trends here. But perhaps that is precisely why GOLEM is something of a trend itself. And then there are usually other events going on as well – from music to films. And what about the legendary book shelf? Come and find out!

Altes Land
The "Altes Land" is just a stone’s throw away from Hamburg and is the largest contiguous fruit-producing region in Northern Europe. But it has more to offer than fresh fruit and a charming landscape; the real "Altländer cuisine" is another attraction. A number of restaurants and inns have taken up the cause of regional cuisine and offer tasty specialities like "Diekpedder" or "cherry soup". And you should definitely try a piece of "Altländer apple streusel cake" made with fresh fruit from the region.
