you can find almost anything in Karstadt My two favorites…read moreparts of that mall are the Parfumerie/Cosmetics department which is on the ground floor, and their household / kitchen floor (last floor). They have all kinds of designs for the kitchen. I am not much of a cook, but when i see the huge variety (some for VERY affordable prices / some with crazy creative designs) i feel like buying a new home with a 150 sqm kitchen to fit everything in!!! There's a small supermarket in Karstadt, they even have electronics department, bedroom department... They have a restaurant at the last floor. I would really advise you to eat there.. The food is good and it is freshly made in front of u they have everything really I think u need to know, if ur buying a gift from Karstadt, u cant get ur gift giftwrapped anywhere you have to go to the Geschenkservice, and then of course very 'germanly' PAY for your giftwrap, between 1EUR and 5EUR depending if ur adding a flower or a ribbon and on the size of the gift All in all a good mall, wide choice, it has brand names mostly, a lot of variety

The floor with dinnerware and kitchen utensils is fantastic! It's where I go to buy my Kahla mugs.read more

This was my favorite store in Hamburg! Before we left Germany, I bought so many wonderful animals…read moreand buildings, etc, for my train layout, I had to have much of it sent back to California. Unfortunately, many items were still in storage and it was broken into and so much was stolen, I am still sick about it. I was hoping to find circus items again! I miss Hamburg so much and wish I had stayed there! The people are warm and friendly and sooo helpful and polite! Hamburg will always be my favorite city, even though I was born in San Francisco, the people are horrible today and I go out as little as possible. Hugs to all of you!

Probably the ugliest building in this otherwise fairly well-designed neighbourhood. Good choice for…read morereasonable prices. Don't go here if you want top quality, but you do get what you pay for.

It's big but it's not great. They almost have a wide range of everything.read more

A very upscale and expensive department store. Back in the States it could be comparable to…read moreprobably Bloomingdales or Saks Fifth Avenue, but when I glanced at the purse selection it doesn't look like they have some of the high end European brands for sale such as Burberry, Chanel, Prada, but luckily those boutiques are a short walk away. They mostly carry European brands but have some American brands such as Tommy Hilfiger, Juicy Couture, 7 Jeans. I did see a decent handful of sales tags on every floor, but some of the items were still just too pricey. However, the Longchamp bags on sale were a deal. They also offer a food court and I picked up a ton of German chocolates to bring home in their basement confectionary department. This department has a variety of candies from some you can find at their local grocery and department store such as Kinder to Niederegger to California brand Jelly Belly. Overall I would recommend a stop by Alterhaus just to check it out. At least you can buy some chocolates if nothing else catches your eye. Alterhaus and another department store, Karstadt seem to be the one of the very few stores in the area that close at 8 instead of 7.

Alsterhaus is what Illum is in Copenhagen, but with a niceness scale that is way beyond Illum…read more A rather upscale department store that houses big famous designer brand and interesting decorations inside. It stocks everything from cosmetics (on the lower ground) to home decoration and even cafes, restaurants and food shop. I must add that I love their food shop, especially during Christmas times. Oh, I wanted to buy everything on display. Chocolates, cheese, wine, you name it. There are also areas where you could sit down and enjoy champagne *ahem* or just coffee. Customer service is friendly as far as I have encountered and they have gift-wrapping service on the home decoration floor (can't quite remember which floor was that - 4th?) and it's just located right in front of the lake, hence the name. This place was thoroughly thronged during Christmas shopping season, though - just so you know
