The Hotel Atlantic in Hamburg is being renovated. However, panic rocker Udo Lindenberg does not have to move out of his residence.
The Hamburg Hotel Atlantic is keeping its most famous resident: musician Udo Lindenberg (78), who has had a long-term residence there since 1995, will be able to continue living in the building despite renovation work.
The luxury hotel, which is celebrating its 115th anniversary this year, had announced that “from the beginning of 2025 and until mid-2027, all 221 rooms and suites in the Hotel Atlantic will be gradually redesigned”. All renovations and new buildings are to take place “while the hotel is still in operation and we will ensure that our guests can still enjoy the comfort of our grand hotel during this time”.
“Most famous guest” remains
Despite the renovation work on the Grand Hotel at Alster 72-79, “its most famous guest, Udo Lindenberg, is not thinking of giving up and changing his long-term residence,” says a statement from Lindenberg. It speaks of “certain cosmetic interventions in the winter of 2024” that the hotel will have to undergo. “It only affects the hotel wing in which I have housed my painting studio,” explains the musician in his own statement.
His suite, however, will not be affected by the work, the statement continues. Regarding the studio in question, the statement explains: “If Udo feels like creating new liqueurs with a brush, canvas and colorful liqueurs, he will also move into a panic annex in a nearby hotel so that he can paint there undisturbed in the meantime.”
