Tengo hambre. Use estar when you are describing your location or any temporary characteristic. Like estoy triste or estoy a mi casa.
The literal meaning of tengo hambre is I have hunger.

You have to say tengo hambre, if you say estoy hambre you will probably get looked at funny:-)

"Tengo hambre" to have hunger. In spanish, some phrases don't directly translate into what we would say in English. You just have to learn from experience which ones are different. For example, you would say "tengo 20 anos" to say that you were 20.

Tengo hambre.
Hambre literally means hunger, so you HAVE (tener/tengo) hunger, rather than you ARE (estar/estoy) hunger.

Tengo hambre is the correct way to say it.
Also tengo sed = I am thirsty.

Tengo hambre always. Literally means "I have hunger" if you said "estoy hambre" it would translate as "I am hunger".
