My review doesn't differ much from the one provided by escape4, but you all know that I still have photos to share. Overall, I enjoyed the Courtyard Hamburg Airport, especially the shower, but still dislike the lack of food and beverage benefits at breakfast for the Courtyard chain. Here are my pros, cons, and photos:

Note: There didn't seem to be much competition other than the Hotel Kocks next door (I'm not joking) and the Radisson Blu at the airport.

Pros:

• Upgraded to a suite several days prior to arrival, which was a full suite with separate rooms
• Living room and desk furniture were generally comfortable
• Bed was generally comfortable - it was two twins pushed together, but the mattress was firm foam without being hard, the pillows were plush, and the covers were fine for the warm room temperature - no problem sleeping
• Shower pressure was amazing - the best I have had in Germany so far - really awesome
• Left a welcome gift of a pepper blend - interesting and a nice thought, but I didn't take it as I worried airport police might think it was drugs
• They proactively asked if I needed late checkout, which seems rare in Germany and which I didn't need
• Very walkable to Hamburg Airport
• The property has a cute "little house" aesthetic
• Service had good happy attitudes
• Enjoyed the touch-sensitive buttons in the elevator

Cons:

• Room was warm, and leaving the windows open at night wasn't an option as a bright blue light was on the side of the building, and you couldn't open the windows and keep the curtains closed
• Wi-Fi was finicky - especially later on at night
• Had to ask about welcome gift choices and was told I would get 500 points - no offer of a F&B credit (and I didn't push)
• No breakfast for Elites due to brand issue

Overall, I wouldn't have an issue returning here before another morning departure from HAM. Better than saying I stayed at Hotel Kocks...
