History
The Hotel Atlantic was built for 14 million gold marks on Hamburg's Außenalster to house first-class passengers of the Hamburg America Line and the Hamburg South America Line. Chancellor Bernhard von Bülow and HAPAG director Albert Ballin opened it on 2 May 1909. After World War II the British Armed Forces used it as Hamburg headquarters until the house reopened on 1 March 1950. Kempinski bought it in 1957. German financier Dieter Bock kept the building when he sold the Kempinski chain in 1994; Bernard Broermann acquired it in 2014. The Kempinski flag came off on 13 January 2021, and the hotel joined Marriott's Autograph Collection. Scenes from the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies were shot here in 1997. The five-star house now holds 221 rooms and suites, with a private screening room among the meeting salons.
