I just feel like Hamburg is not well located for tourism. Düsseldorf/Köln/Bonn are at least very close to France, Holland, Belgium, etc

Hamburg is also quite rich. It used to have the same GDP as Berlin with half the population. Hence fostering tourism wasn't a priority. But I guess with the harbor losing value (the harbor is quite a bit inland and the river Elbe that leads to it isn't deep enough if ships continue to get larger) and Berlin actually becoming the largest German economic center, that's going to change.
