A white building with Christmas trees and fairy lights.

Your Christmas at Louis C. Jacob

When the fire crackles softly in the lounge, the illuminated Christmas tree glows warmly and the Hotel Louis C. Jacob is aglow with festive splendour, Christmas is just around the corner. Spend the festive season with us on the Elbchaussee and let yourself be carried along by days filled with warmth, style and quiet anticipation.

An evening at a festively laid table, a musical highlight at the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, and in between, plenty of time for what makes Christmas special: tranquillity, togetherness and moments that will last a lifetime.
