DECK 4 – YOUR ALSTER RESTAURANT IN HAMBURG: SUMMER TERRACE & GOURMET DINING BY THE WATER
Summer in Hamburg has many facets. One of the most beautiful of these can now be enjoyed right on the shores of the Inner Alster. Welcome to DECK 4, the newly reopened summer terrace of the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Hamburg. With its breathtaking views of the Alster Fountain and carefully curated menu of light seasonal dishes and drinks, our gourmet restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy a sunny lunch or a relaxed summer afternoon in the heart of the city yet far from the hustle and bustle.
A FRESH LOOK, A NEW NAME – BUT THE SAME TIMELESS QUALITY
Over 15 years after the original 'Jahreszeiten Terrasse' first opened, the Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Hamburg is celebrating the return of its lakeside terrace, now under the name 'DECK 4'. Boasting a refined concept and an elegant new design, the restaurant offers direct views of the iconic Alster Fountain. As part of the redesign of the Jungfernstieg promenade, an area has been created that combines northern German sophistication with a maritime atmosphere. A blue-and-white colour scheme, premium lounge furniture and the terrace's proximity to the water create a stylish and welcoming atmosphere in which to enjoy long, relaxing hours. The gourmet restaurant's new menu is equally refined, focusing on high-quality regional ingredients and northern seafood specialities with international influences.

Complete your meal with a selection of refreshing drinks, from chilled rosé and champagne to creative summer cocktails. As well as outstanding cuisine, you can enjoy one of the best views in Hamburg: the gently shimmering Alster Lake and the lively atmosphere of the Jungfernstieg promenade.
