This well-kept hotel is very clean and in a super-convenient location very close (less than a half-block walk) to the Munich Hbf train station, the public transportation system and the Old City (easily walkable to everything from the hotel). Staff were polite, friendly and super helpful. The room was spacious and well-appointed. Would highly recommend to anyone on a tourism visit to Munich.

This hotel was amazing! The staff was incredibly helpful, patient and so welcoming. Josip at the front desk was exceptional and helped us immensely! Cleanliness of the hotel was 10/10 and our room was perfect with heated floors, automatic window shades, giant bed and very quiet. Dining at the restaurant inside the hotel is a MUST!! We had delicious food paired with delicious wine, a wonderful memory. Room service in the morning as well as breakfast inside the dining room was great quality! We will be back!

Perfect central location and courteous staff. Accommodations were clean and comfortable although the green shag carpet could use a refresh. The area in front of the hotel appears tol be boarded up and going through transition, but would still recommend for easy access to Munich sites.

The property is very nice, large rooms the young women who check us in was very pleasant an older gentleman who was there was a bit crabby, but the restaurant is very good and staff very friendly, we were traveling alone, two freinds and felt safe, it’s very close to train station so it’s convenient but a few sit over kind of rough.
