Unlike other major Jewish destinations in Germany, Hamburg currently has no kosher restaurant or hotel. The practical option is the kosher shop next to the Chabad house (which also offers catering) or lunches through the Jewish community - best arranged in advance.
Stay in the kosher area of Hamburg
Hamburg does not have one obvious Jewish quarter. Chabad Lubawitsch Hamburg (Chabad house listed on the site) is the anchor - book a hotel within walking distance of it rather than picking a random part of Hamburg.
If you complete your booking there during this same visit, we earn a small referral commission from the partner - at no extra cost to you.
