For sure in the top 3 landmarks of Hamburg. Beautiful combination of old and new architecture. Definitely worth visiting. Special thanks for the free entrance for the observation deck i.e. plaza. You just collect tickets and go up by awesome 80m long stairs. View is for sure the best one in Hamburg.

Beautiful architecture. A must visit place in Hamburg. Do take tickets downstairs it's for free (atleast for now) and go up with escalators. One of the coolest escalators I saw. Nice view of ships and jetty from the top. The top view of churches adds to the beautiful view from here. Have a coffee and enjoy the scenery. PS: The tickets to see concert hall are different.

A work of art to see the architecture is very beautiful. If you you drive directly to the Elbphilharmonie and from the water you have an unobstructed view, It's a good thing that visiting the plaza is free. But not inside.

The building is very beautiful. You need to go to the ticket counter and say that you want to go to the observation point. They will give you free tickets there. Then you go up two escalators and some stairs. And voila, you are on the observation point. Be aware that there is a strong wind, but the views are incredible. There are also restaurants and a restroom in the building. A great experience, thank you!

A must see if you visit Hamburg. Its nice to look at from the outside, but also the inside has much to offer. The escalator is a masterpiece, the platform for public visit is beautiful and the hotel rooms, the Hotel itself and the concert hall are all a architectural masterpiece as well.

Went to 2 concerts during a 4 day visit Pros: The large hall is quite impressive. The visibility to the stage was great even though I was sitting at the upper levels. Supposedly, all 2100 seats have maximum distance of 30 meters to the conductor. The acoustics were great as well. Beethoven's violin concerto performance was very nice. The smaller recital hall good acoustics. Visibility of the stage was good even from the back. Website was easy to use and book tickets. Allocate extra time to enjoy a walk around the Hafencity neighborhood as well as the 360 view from the main floor of the venue. Cons: There are a lot of steps after the two escalators. If you are mobility challenged, then arrive early so that you can queue up to take the elevators. The bathroom at the main floor (after the two escalators) is inconveniently located. There are additional bathrooms as you enter either the two concert hall areas.

A great place to be. Alone the architecture is worthwhile visiting. A seemingly endless moving stairway brings you to the Foyer. From here you can ascend to the entrance doors to the concert hall and to the windows from where you have a beautiful view over Hamburg in all directions. The music performances which take place in the concert hall truly are world-class.

As part of Jerusalem symphony orchestra I performed two concert there. The prestige and luxury of this place is unbelievable. As a player I felt proud to play in this great facility. Most advance, secure, beautiful and built to the needs of music and musicians. Bravo

Beautiful building, you take a tour of the deck for free. Amazing view from the deck, best view of Hamburg in my opinion! Definitely worth a visit. If you want to go to a concert you need to book early (2 weeks) tickets are sold out quickly. Very accessible by car (big parking lot).

You can visit the building for free, you just need to go to one of the offices outside to get a free entrance ticket. The building's architecture is amazing and you have a great view over Hamburg and its harbour. There is also the possibility to drink and eat and have a great panoramic view. Be aware that it is a very crowded place with hundreds of people visiting it in the same time. Enjoy!

One of the iconic and uniquely styled Building in Hamburg. We just visited the viewing deck/floor. While you are expected to buy a ticket but you don't pay anything. The view is good, you can spend maybe 20-30 mins here. Nothing great apart from that.

Went here for the observation deck. It was cheaper than I expected and there were some great views all around the 360° deck. We bought tickets in advance and avoided the long queue. The cafe also has some lovely black forest cake and cinnamon buns.

Der kostenlose Besuch der Außenterrasse ist zu empfehlen. Dabei kann man auch den Shop besuchen und einige schöne aber auch unnötige Souvenirs kaufen. Wir waren an einem regnerischen Januartag zur Dämmerung dort. Die Aussicht auf Hamburg und seine Lichter waren einfach schön. Nächster Besuch wird auch hoffentlich einen Konzertbesuch beinhalten.

This is a must visit location for stunning views of hamburg. Completely free and under cover for those rainy day activities. Make sure you take some time out to explore this incredible building .

(Translated by Google) In Hamburg they are happy that, with the construction of the so-called Elphi, the tourists are finally away from the street and, in connection with the visit to the Miniatur Wunderland, they are finally only in the Hafencity. (Original) In Hamburg ist man froh, dass durch den Bau der sogenannten Elphi, die Touristen endlich weg von der Straße und sie sich, in Verbindung mit dem Besuch des Miniatur Wunderlands, endlich nur noch in der Hafencity aufhalten.

(Translated by Google) This beautiful building has become the symbol of Hamburg. The visit to the viewpoint is free, although you must obtain a ticket at the window. The views from there are fabulous and you go up a very long parabolic escalator. Upstairs there is a souvenir shop and a cafe. (Original) Este preciosos edificio se ha convertido en el símbolo de Hamburgo. La visita al mirador es gratuita, aunque hay que obtener un ticket en ventanilla. Las vistas desde allí son fabulosas y se sube por una larguísima escalera mecánica de forma parabólica. Arriba hay una tienda de souvenirs y una cafetería.

Irre Gebäude, waren schon einige Male auf der Aussichtsplattform, heute war nur leider eine so lange Schlange, sodass wir uns entschieden nächstes mal wieder hier hinauf zu gehen. Im Konzert waren wir noch nicht, das steht noch offen, wird aber kommen. Schon ein Abenteuer mit der langen Rolltreppe hinauf zu fahren. Da wir in Hamburg zuhause sind, können wir jederzeit wiederkommen. Oben befindet sich auch ein Café und Toiletten. Für den Aussichtspunkt braucht man keinen Eintritt zahlen, nur ein Ticket für die Besichtigung wird benötigt.

To enter, you get a QR code and scan it. The queue is crowded, but your turn comes quickly. Once you go up the escalator, Hamburg and the harbor are under your feet. The view is worth seeing. We hope to come for a concert next time we come

Der Harmonie war wirklich majestätisch, ich würde auch empfehlen nur an sonnigen Tagen und gegen Sonnenuntergang dorthin zu gehen. es gibt eine Fähre in der Nähe die man mit dem Deutschlandticket nehmen kann, da kann man viele gute Fotos machen. Außerdem gibt es am Ende der Fähre eine U3 Haltestelle.

Auf der Plaza mit Blick auf den Hafen waren wir schon öfter. Aber erst jetzt haben wir Tickets für ein Konzert im Großen Saal bekommen. Allein der Treppenaufgang und der Zugang zum Saal über 6 Etagen ist beeindruckend. Auf jeder Etage befinden sich Bars und Toiletten, so dass keine langen Wartezeiten entstehen. Und wenn man dann erst im Saal ist … einfach toll und auf jeden Fall ein Erlebnis.

Schönes Bauwerk das man auch von Innen sehen kann. Tickets vorab besorgen. Auf dem Handy am Eingang selbst einlesen. Man kommt per Rolltreppe und per Treppe nach Oben. Mit dem Ticket kann man auf die Außenseite gehen und die Aussicht genießen. Hafen, Speicherstadt und zum Beispiel Michel zu sehen. Eintrittspreis dafür eher niedrig.

One of the amazing opera in Germany and in the world. Well situated. The building from outside is really nice. I love the top, I mean the roof of that opera (waves design). My German friend told me that building was so expensive for Hamburg city anyway it look very nice. You must to enter and go up to the huge balcony of the building. The view looking to the old city and to the port is lovely. The design inside is also beautiful....

Views are pretty awesome, and a stunning piece of architecture to say the least.. You can walk all the way around the observation plaza, so 360 degree views across the Hafencity, Port and beyond! It's free entry up to the first plaza, it has toilets, shop and a restaurant, so some great facilities if your unsure if it's worth the trip. A great little place to take some pictures if your on a budget, want to kill some time or just love ships and dockland. You might also be able to catch an orchestral view 😉. Recommended.

Beautiful architecture in the heart of Hamburg city. Most visited tourist spot with a beautiful architecture. You can go up to one point and can have a circular view of the Hamburg city and the lake. Enjoy watching large ships, top view of different chruches and city structures. If you have time try to learn about the history behind it, then i will recommend to go through. It has a enriched story behind it. This building is a wonder to the city and to the world.

Very nice and modern building with a free entry terrasse for view 360 of city. Don’t forget to visit the souvenir shop! 🤩

A modern opera housu that you can visit for free (only visit the main hall, restaurant and coffee shop). Howewver you can have a kind of panoramic view to Hamburg city from this building.

This is a must see when in Hamburg. You can get onto the platform which is half way up the building for free, but you have to get a "ticket" to get through the entrance. It's a stunning building with the most amazing views! Try out the Stoertebecker bar when there, lovely beers and very good food!

I flew here from Belgium to hear Joshua Bell perform the Tchaikovsky violin concerto and Mahler symphony 5. It's a concert-going experience that I've never expected to have in my life. The building is magnificent both inside and outside. The view from the plaza makes it very worth it to arrive one hour early just to enjoy all the lights of the city & harbour as well as the calming sight of the water. The acoustic of the grand hall makes me feel like my previous classical concerts were a bit... muddled? Every sound in the hall was clear, I think it definitely amplified the performance perfectly. Joshua was... a beast. Since every sound can be heard so clearly I truly admire how he was able to articulate the music so beautifully and accurately from the beginning to the end. I'm glad I travelled a long way for this live classical music experience...

Very beautiful interior and exterior. Entrance to the outdoor balcony half way up the building is free although you do need to pick up a free ticket at the entrance. Not much to do other than enjoy the view and take pictures. The escalator upstairs is recognized by many tourists as it is a long beautiful ride up.

It's not a mere concert hall, it's a spaceship! Absolutely worth visiting just for experiencing the stunning visuals and view of the port, but acoustics is out of this world too. Can't recommend enough. If you came unprepared, check the concert tickets on the day you are visiting, they usually keep some for the last moment.

Elbphilharmonie Hamburg is an architectural marvel! From its stunning glass exterior to the breathtaking views of the city and harbor from the Plaza, it's a must-visit attraction. The acoustics inside the concert halls are exceptional, making every performance a memorable experience. The combination of modern design and musical excellence creates a unique cultural destination in Hamburg. Don't miss the chance to catch a concert here – it's worth every moment!

It has a great view and great acoustics. When you go up to the terrace, Hamburg is at your feet. It is almost the meeting point of the rivers coming from all over the city. You can also see the liveliness of the port and shipyard around.

Amazing building. What an asset to Hamburg this fantastic, unusual, strange and special building is. So much more than I expected and so beautifully detailed. The free public plaza half way up offers phenomenal views of the Elbe river and of Hamburg. It’s free, so do it. You won’t regret it!!

(Translated by Google) The Elbphilharmonie is very beautiful. We looked around independently without a guide. The escalator is very nice and you have a nice view of the harbor. The souvenirs are very expensive, but you don't have to buy them. (Original) Die Elbphilharmonie ist sehr schön. Wir haben uns selbstständig ohne Führung umgesehen. Die Rolltreppe ist sehr schön und man hat einen schönen Ausblick auf den Hafen. Die Souveniers sind sehr teuer, doch man ist ja nicht gezwungen sie zu kaufen.

Architectural gem. I highly recommend going to the visitors‘ terrasse.

Beautiful place, beside this building is the harbour view. You can go to the viewing gallery free of cost, just need to take the plaza ticket( no charges) and climb the elevator to reach the viewing platform.

Super toller Klang. Wir waren das erste Mal zum großen Konzert und bestimmt nicht das letzte Mal. Durch die Einführung eine Stunde im Vorfeld kann man sich gut auf das Stück vorbereiten... Auch der Ausblick auf die Elbe in den Pausen ist grandios.

Fantastic place. The concerts were sold out for my time in Hamburg. You must book in advance. But also the visit of the building and the view from the top floor overlooking the port are worth it.

There's free admission into the plaza but that requires you to get a ticket first at the booth. Wait time is little so don't worry. You get to walk around the outer plaza and see different views from Elphi. Even better if you arrive via water taxi so you could see the beautiful building from sea level.

Good place to come for the Hamburg city view, you will see 360° view. You can't go inside the concert hall though, only at the first part of the building. And the escalator is probably the longest one that I ever ride to get up there. It's free to go in, but have to get a QR ticket first before enter.

(Translated by Google) I had an excellent visit to this building, the whole city can be seen from there, it was a great view (Original) Ich hatte einen ausgezeichneten Besuch in diesem Gebäude, die ganze Stadt kann von dort aus gesehen werden, es war eine großartige Aussicht

Great architecture by the water, different views from different angles. The platform is a nice concept to have 360 degree view of the harbor. No admission but just need to line up for free ticket for the purpose of traffic control.

One of the largest Concert Halls of the World. The architecture is world famous and was built by one of the best architects of the world. Situated at the edge of River Elbe, it is a must visit to all the people who live or are travelling to Hamburg. Unfortunately I could not go in, but I know that there is an observation deck at the top of the structure with is a must visit. If you are able to go then please go ahead else at least take a ferry (Included in Zone Ticket) and reach at the foot of the structure.

(Translated by Google) Admittedly, the building is impressive. With all the positive reviews you read here, you shouldn't forget: Completed 6 years after the planned date, construction costs of 886 million, 11.24 times as planned. Isn't a project like that in our capital just being brought to an end with an enormous amount of taxpayers money? One can argue about taste, futuristic or illusionary is not for everyone either. (Original) Zugegeben, das Bauwerk ist imposant. Bei all den positiven Rezensionen die man hier liest sollte man aber nicht vergessen: 6 Jahre nach geplantem Termin fertiggestellt, Baukosten mit 886 Millionen das 11,24-fache wie geplant. Wird da nicht gerade noch so ein Projekt in unserer Hauptstadt mit einer schieren Unmenge an Steuergeldern irgendwie zu Ende gebracht? Über Geschmack lässt sich dann auch noch streiten, futuristisch oder illusionär ist auch nicht jedermanns Sache.

A mesmerizing architecture. A must see place's top ranking is Elbphilharmonie. The entry ticket is free. At the top you can see both Elbe docks and the city view.

What a lovely place! Remarkable architecture, spectacular views from both inside the Plaza (make sure to catch the sunset or a night-city view from there) and to the building from the city & ferry. Take a ferry #72 to enjoy breathtaking views of the building - with the nice weather, the clouds & the sky seamlessly continue through the building, it's amazing. :)

When in Hamburg the Elbphilarmonie is a major highlight. Firstly because of the extraordinary architecture of the building, set on an island of the river in an area of recovered storage houses and port infrastructure. Then the concert hall itself, a marvel of acoustics. The stage is surrounded by public so it's possible to see the orchestra from all points of view. All the seats have great visibility of the stage.

(Translated by Google) Just wonderful (Original) Einfach wunderbar

Overall a 10/10! Must Visit in Hamburg! Parking space is more than enough and organised with perfection. It even is free of charge when attending an event in the hall. There are plenty of food oppertunities and areas to sit down, they seem all spread out which is nice for some privacy. Places are well organised and you dont feel stuffed to others. Probably the cleanest Toilets you will find in Hamburg!! Inside the hall, the sound is amazing and it is a true one-of-a-kind expirience to listen to music here! Employees are all helpful and friendly. Defenitely recommending a visit, maybe even without a concert!

You need to get a ticket to go on the curved escalator but it’s for free. I liked this place and the view from the balcony. They have a souvenir shop with some nice gadgets. The surrounding area is pretty calm as well.

Auch wenn man aktuell nicht rein kann, tolle Kulisse und beeindruckend.

Very modern building with great views from the balconies over the river. Free to visit when there is not a concert. Looking forward to the next concert season, the quality of the acoustic is amazing making the experience of assuring to a concert unforgettable.

I went just to visit the Lookout. free entrance, you just need to get a ticket right next to the entrance. an amazing view of the harbor and city, very impressive architecture. I think it's a must when visiting Hamburg.

Wonderful view of the port. Free ticket for entry. Long Escalator for the 14 th floor.

Incredible place in Hamburg. The visit to the plaza costs only 2€ per person and it's well worth the money. The view from the observation floor is stunning and you can truly experience Hafencity and Hamburg in general in 360⁰. The bonus is the tube, this particular escalator that is beautifully designed and takes you up directly to the eighth floor of the building. On the plaza you have a one hour window to visit and "relax" with a beautiful view. I recommend coming here when the sun sets for an even more beautiful experience🌆

Very interesting architecture down town Hamburg. Has a nice view from the top of the building. It is just 10 minutes from the Shopping street Hambueger mile and Europa center.

This experience was brilliant! The acoustics was sooooo great, the atmosphere was sooooo insane! I am so in love with what happened here. I never heard something like this before. You felt so tiny in this huge room. And the view when we went up there was sick!

Definitely one of the most beautiful places in Hamburg. The view over the city is breathtaking especially at night.

(Translated by Google) When I was there it was shortly after the building was completed and it looks super modern and beautiful. Unfortunately, the building is moldy in some places because the construction took so long. But I have to say that I think it was really worth it and it has a great view of the North Alster and the harbor as well as the musicals The Lion King and Aladdin. In addition, there are delicious chocolate cakes upstairs in the bar es and it's very cozy. I definitely want to go back in the near future (especially because of the infinitely long escalators that you have to go up) and can only recommend it! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ (Original) Als ich dort war war es kurz nach der Fertigstellung des Gebäudes und es sieht super modern und schön aus.

Zudem gibt es oben in der Bar sehr leckeren Schokoladen-Kuchen 😋🍰und es ist sehr gemütlich. Ich will in nächster Zeit unbedingt nochmal hin (vorallem wegen der unendlich langen Rolltreppen die man hochfahren muss) und kann es nur weiterempfehlen! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Beautiful view! We got to see Hamburg from a different perspective ❤️ The cafe inside is cosy and the entire design inside the building is really exceptional 👍

A very nice experience. It's very windy out there, so take warm clothes! (:

(Translated by Google) Beautiful building. (Original) Wunderschönes Gebäude.

Fantastic venue. Even the highest seats have a good view and audio quality. Fascinating curved escalators on the way up and some wonderful viewing platforms to explore pre-show and during the interval. Very helpful staff.

One of the main attractions of the city to visit. We went up there to have a view on the city and harbour. It must be special during sunset and sunrise time. But I would love to come back for a classical music concert.

It's one of good place for 360 view of Hamburg. You can also go for many concerts. If you like to get good photos of elbphilharmonie Hamburg than i would suggest you to cross the elbe tunnel from landusbruken to other side and take you camera with good zoom lens. It's a must visit place in Hamburg for tourists visiting for short time period. 3 photos from other side of elbe tunnel and 2 photos from elbphilharmonie Hamburg.

(Translated by Google) Hopefully we can enjoy one of the wonderful concerts again soon! Who hasn't been there: once in a lifetime you should have seen the "Elfie" and enjoyed the fantastic acoustics !!! (Original) Hoffentlich können wir bald wieder eines der wunderbaren Konzerte genießen! Wer noch nicht da war: einmal im Leben sollte man die „Elfie“ gesehen und die phantastische Akustik genossen haben!!!

One the best buildings in Germany all over. Must see in Hamburg. I enjoyed a concert there 2019. It was great, great and great.

Thankful for the free entry but very disappointed guests have to pay a tour guide to see the concert halls. I just want to see the beautiful architecture but both halls were blocked off. If you’re in Hamburg on a budget, only check out the Elbphilharmonie if you’ve nothing else to do. The scale of the industrial port is impressive but still nothing to shout about.

Absolutely gorgeous. The architecture of it is impressive. We've come here for the second time and now we also got tickets to visit the inside. The views from the terrace were amazing but you should be aware that there is a chance that you, like us, might get there on a windy day and hardly find your balance there. Otherwise just beautiful. Hopefully next time we visit we will do it for a concert.

(Translated by Google) Great acoustics. Really artistically valuable from the outside, but the longer you think about it, the uglier it looks. (Original) Super Akustik. Von außen wirklich künstlerisch wertvoll, jedoch umso länger man darüber nachdenkt, desto hässlicher sieht es aus.

My favourite building in the world. I cannot describe how beautiful the building is. Amazing form and a spectacular landmark for the Hamburg city. You can vist it from inside as well. Have a paranomic view of the city and the ports. Must must visit.

It’s a great experience to appreciate the view of Hamburg including the city view and the view of the port. We didn’t pay any entrance fee for visiting the plaza. It’s free and we only need to go to the information desk to ask for the ticket. It definitely worths visiting!
