Ok so it's not the prettiest station in the world (although the frontage isn't bad), but it's well organized and the annoucements as you get off a train are great and also in English. If you really like ICE's like me, you'll see lots here!

Hannover Main Station is more like a mall than a station. Lots of shop, food isles and opportunities to grab a coffee to go. Also they have an information desk, lockers for your baggage and you can get to city centre in about two minutes by foot. it's a tiny bit crowded, especially in the mornings, but that's what you can normally expect from a main station.

As another Yelper mentioned here, Hanover is not a super exciting place. We visited with my mother and a friend, because my mother wanted to stay in a hotel (Luisenhof) that she had seen featured on a BBC program or something. The Bahnhof is great for 7 day a week shopping though, and German train stations always seem so clean and well organized, this one being no exception. Beautiful building on the outside, and a nice Ernst August statue out front.

It is a huge Bahnhof. You might get lost when you just arrived. Ernst August statue standing plaza is the front which going to the city, the other end goes differently. Strassenbahns and trains all coming here, so it gets confusing to get a right train. I arrived here with the Strassenbahn and change to the local trains to go to the Steinhuder Meer. I also had to take ICE to Karlsruhe from here. That was not super easy, but I made it. So many shops and eating places, so fun to spend time also.

This place charges you 1 Euro to use the bathroom, what a rip off! If you are not local then you are gonna have a hard trouble figuring out the route and the wagon assignment for the trains. The instructions do not provide too much details and there are too much that you need to know before you end up waking up in another country. I wish they could make instructions a bit easier to understand... For some reason locals already know by heart how the system works, the hours, the A, B, C, D, E sections, and others. I couldn't find any of those information in the available billboards that they have. Wish they could provide those info with more details and more available to the public...

Th city isn't really worth a journey. Except the old town hall and the maschsee, the city doesnt really have that much to offer. However, if one finds himself at the train station in Hannover you can shop here every day of the week even on Sundays. If you think drinks are too expensive which they are go to Lidl in the basement and buy your drinks there. You can safe a lot by doing this. If you have a bit of time due to a stopover you can walk to the Ernst August gallery just outside of the station. Three flours with shops. Definit ely enough to let the time pass by. The only place with free wifi is the Starbucks. Germany still sucks in offering public free wifi. In case your train is delayed...

When I visited Germany this past December, I stayed primarily in Hannover, and practically lived in this hauptbanhof! I'm so glad it was open 7 days a week because I spent many a Sunday here. Since it was the holidays, there was also a Weinachtsmarkt (Christmas market) right outside and I loved getting my glühwein fix before heading out into the cold! For American tourists, a hauptbanhof is a central train station and so much more. Hannover's wasn't the prettiest station I visited, but it was clean and it was home. This particular one has drugstores, grocery stores, clothing stores, flower shops, a Sparkasse (bank/atms), eateries, and even a McDonald's. I completely miss the convenience of t...
