Advantages
wifi accessPrice favourableDisadvantages
Staff unfriendlyUnpunctualityI'll start by mentioning the positive aspects. Wifi access was guaranteed as well as numerous sockets. The price was also very reasonable.
However, the bus arrived at the station much later than expected. There was no explanation for this. The staff were not very friendly either. When loading the suitcases, they did not really want to help the passengers.
There were also no toilets on the bus.
Advantages
InexpensiveQuiet journeyNice staffDisadvantages
NoneAll in all, the journey from Munich to Hamburg by bus can only be recommended. Despite the long journey time, the trip was relaxed. The bus drove quietly and we arrived in Hamburg only a few minutes late. As the seats are very comfortable, you can sit for a long time and make yourself comfortable. There is enough legroom and if you get a free seat next to you, it is even more pleasant. The passengers were friendly and in a good mood and fun conversations ensued. The bus and the toilet were clean. The air was fresh and at a pleasant temperature. I was able to charge my mobile phone with the power socket and the free internet also worked well. Everything is really pleasant and if you consider the good price, the bus trip is simply great and can only be recommended.

NoneThe bus journey from Munich to Hamburg is a good alternative to the train journey. The whole experience is relaxed and hassle-free. Despite the long journey time, it is not exhausting as the seats are comfortable and offer enough legroom. The journey itself was quiet and the atmosphere relaxed.
