Reference excerpt

Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg is a hotel in Hamburg, Germany operated by Radisson Hotels under the Radisson Blu brand. At 108 meters, it is the tallest hotel in Hamburg and is on the list of tallest buildings in Hamburg and the list of tallest buildings in Germany. It has 32 floors and 556 rooms. The hotel is at the edge of the Planten un Blomen park and is connected to the Congress Center Hamburg and near Hamburg Dammtor station. The hotel also has 2,122 m2 of meeting space in 12 conference rooms on a separate floor.

History The hotel was designed by architects Jost Schramm and Gert Pempelfort. Construction began in 1970 and the hotel opened in April 1973 as Loews Hamburg Plaza. It was renamed Hamburg Plaza Hotel when it was managed by Canadian Pacific Hotels. In 1988, it was acquired by SAS Group and renamed the SAS Hamburg Plaza Hotel. When SAS Group's SAS International Hotels created a co-brand with Radisson Hotels, it was renamed Radisson SAS Hamburg Hotel. In October 2009, a €48 million renovation of the hotel was completed. In November 2009, a European hotel fund managed by Invesco acquired the hotel for €155 million. The hotel was renamed the Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg in 2009. In November 2015, Azure acquired the hotel. In March 2017, Wenaasgruppen acquired the hotel.

In popular culture The final episodes of the ZDF television series Timm Thaler were filmed at the hotel.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg

In research: Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1973 establishments in West Germany, Buildings and structures completed in 1973, Buildings and structures in Hamburg-Mitte, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Radisson Blu Hotel Hamburg outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
