How come Lübeck and Hannover lost their city state status but Bremen retainer it?
Hannover never was a city-state, Lübeck was given to Prussia in 1937 to compensate enlarging of Hamburg at its expense. After the war referendum for re-establishing the city-state wasn't allowed as Lübeck had already lost it's independence before 1945.

Didn't Hitler have a personal hatred of Lubeck or something, which is why it lost its independence, or have I just made that up?
I think that's mostly a myth, supposedly the city prevented his appearance there in 1932 though actually city voted to allow the rally and it was moved outside the city due to local NSDAP being unable to pay for the usual safety requirements and fees. I think it's bit unlikely that Hitler somehow acquired some eternal hatred for the city from that.
