Meetings for up to 60 participants, team-building days and Christmas parties can be organized at Hotel Hafen Flensburg, a hotel on the harbor side of the Flensburg Fjord at Schiffbrücke 33. Several meeting rooms, a glass atrium for breaks and 69 rooms and apartments sit in a mix of listed historic buildings and new wings, a short walk from the city center.
Seminars and company events
The hotel presents itself as an award-winning conference hotel in Schleswig-Holstein and sells half-day, full-day and multi-day packages with catering. Seating is set to the client's brief, and every room has a projector, free Wi-Fi, up to two flipcharts and two pinboards and a moderation case. Team programs run from team painting, a pub games championship and KAPLA tower building indoors to conference golf, team sailing and raft building on and by the water. The Captains Lounge doubles as a remote workspace with fast Wi-Fi that needs no booking. In December the hotel prepares Christmas parties with a festive menu, a drinks package and a punch reception in the courtyard.
Rooms and capacities
The Schiffbrücke room, 50 square meters with a maritime interior, takes up to 36 people. Herrenstall 1 and 2 combine into one room for up to 60, shown set in a U-shape. The Captains Lounge, furnished like an English living room, seats up to 30. The Kaysers Suite has a 42 square meter meeting area within 103 square meters, for a board meeting of up to eight. The hotel describes the rooms as quiet and bright, and breaks can move into the glass atrium.
Accommodation
The 69 rooms and apartments fall into categories named after ship types: Brigg rooms face the inner garden, Bark rooms sit in between, Fregatte rooms look over the harbor, and Quartier apartments have a kitchenette. The Kaysers Suite sits above the rooftops. For assignments of three weeks or more, a boarding house rents apartments with separate living areas. Reception is open 24 hours, rooms are dog-friendly, and parking, bike rental and EV charging are available.
Catering
Restaurant Columbus cooks with regional produce, with vegetarian dishes on the seasonal à la carte menu, and the bar serves wine, beer and cocktails. Cake is served in the atrium or on the terrace in the afternoon. The hotel handles conference catering itself and runs culinary evenings such as barbecues with live music and holiday menus. A wellness deck offers a Finnish sauna, massages and cardio equipment.
History and setting
The historic buildings hosted the Danish King Frederick VII in the 19th century. Today the protected houses on the harbor side are joined to modern buildings around the courtyard. The Museumshafen, with its historic ships and wooden huts, is less than a minute away, and the cafés of Norderstraße are close by. A storm surge in October 2023 damaged the hotel, and it documents the reconstruction on its website.
Getting there
The city center is a few minutes on foot, and the hotel points to connections by car, train, bus and plane. Guests arriving by car can park on site and charge electric vehicles.
