Reeperbahn was bustling with bar, clubs a real party hotspot, but if your in a large group i.e stag party don't try to go to the clubs together split up as we were refused all the clubs because we were English, even with our german tour guide, we found some great bars though Like London bar & O'Reillys, and opersite...

There are of course some good music venues around Reeperbahn, like Freiheit 36 and of course Schmidt's and Schmidt's Tivoli and also St.Pauli Theater, all showing musicals and comedy. Avoid the "erotic" clubs at all costs! just a tourist trap. More

We were staying dwn the road so gave it a go for a drink on our first night. Found a nice quirky pub called 'Sommer something'. Lots of pubs and theatres, and also the sexshops etc. Plenty for anyone looking for a night out. More

Perhaps this place was interesting 50 or 100 years ago, but not now. It is a neon street populated by tourists and lowbrow fun seekers. It is not worth the time or cost of public transport. More

I come from New Zealand and I've been here on exchange for almost a year now. I've been there several times and In my opinion the Reeperbahn is what YOU make of it! During the day you can find some really good, reasonably priced restaurants and have a peek (and hopefully a laugh) at the sex shops. Sure, there are... More

I agree with many posts below - nothing special here in Hamburg. On my visit (en route to Beatlemania) I was accosted endlessly by peep show barkers and yelled at by a drunken fool who was on a corner yelling at everyone ( at 3 pm). Many 'homeless' with dogs and tin cans If you are in Hamburg, ya gotta... More

Went there on a Saturday night with a bunch of friends who were locals. The clubs have no ventilation whatsoever therefore if it's freezing cold outside the clubs would be a perfect spot for you to keep warm. You have to try out this shots they serve called the "Mexicana" ! It tastes like gespacho but has a zing to... More

My husband and I visited Hamburg due to attending a concert. We coudn't not visit Hamburg and not take a walk down the Reeperbahn. First impressions were that it was not as long as we expected. Almost all of the strip consisted of Sex and souvenir shops. Plenty of Wurst stands, bars and some great places to eat too. If... More
