2007 G8 Summit Magazine - (Page 27) telephone-/LAN-/modem-connection, TV, stereo system, room safe, mini-bar, coffee- and tea-making facilities in all rooms and suites go without saying. And the individually designed marble bathrooms in warm sandy tones impress with double sinks, exclusive showers with full body spray and most are with a separate bathtub as well as a hair-dryer and make-up mirror. Yachthafenresidenz Hohe Düne provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable stay at the Baltic Sea. And to make sure that no wish remains unfulfilled, the crew at the Yachthafenresidenz does everything to completely impress their guests. That starts with the friendly reception with baggage and valet service and goes much further than round-the-clock room service. Directly next to the unique hotel complex on the Hohe Düne peninsula lies the hotel’s own beach for sunbathing or a refreshing dip into the sea. You can leave the daily stress behind you and go for walks along the kilometre-long beaches to the East or West of Hohe Düne, breathe deeply and smell the salty sea air, look out into the distance and listen to the seagulls squaking and the roaring of the waves. And a walk to the lighthouse at the end of the over 500metre-long mole is a must for a stay at Hohe Düne. For hotel guests wanting to go to the nearby Warnemünder promenade on the Alter Strom Yachthafenresidenz Hohe Düne offers a very special service: the hotel’s own historic Hamburg harbour skiff “Sylvia” shuttles guests between the “Bahnhofsbrücke/Alter Strom” landing stage in Warnemünde and the new “Yachthafen Hohe Düne” landing stage directly in front of the Yachthafenresidenz Hohe Düne gates. Gleeming dark wood and lots of brass provide for a classic maritime atmosphere on board the 15.52 metrelong “Sylvia” built in 1948 in the Jensen wharf in Hamburg, which can carry up to 40 passengers. Despite her mature age the skiff’s technology is completely up-to-date. The world’s most beautiful bathing cultures Wellness lovers also get their money’s worth at Yachthafenresidenz Hohe Düne.
