Munich Hotels

There’s an abundance of hotel choices to suit all pockets in Munich, from the very grandest 5-star edifices along Maximillianstrasse, to smaller but no less elegant boutique establishments. There’s traditional opulence and cutting-edge contemporary style, good clean budget options and all the trusted international chains associated with the mid-price and business travel markets. The only thing to really bear in mind when booking a hotel in Munich is that for the duration of the massive Oktoberfest (when over a million people descend on the city), even a broom cupboard can’t be found without advanced booking.

The Munich hotels below have been grouped into three pricing categories:
Luxury (over €200)
Moderate (€100 to €200)
Cheap (up to €100)

These Munich hotel prices are the starting prices for a standard double room per night and include taxes and breakfast unless otherwise specified.

+49 89 21 200.

Privately owned and run by one family for over 100 years, the prestigious Bayerischer Hof welcomes an upscale international clientele.

Its opulent 340 rooms and suites vary in decorative styles - some are very romantic and English, designed by Laura Ashley, others feature a southern European country-house theme or a French 19th-century palace ambience. Located in the heart of Munich, the hotel hosts many prominent functions and award parties for Germany's high society.

Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Kempinski

+49 89 2125 2799.

Possibly the best appointed of all the luxury hotels in Munich, with its imposing 19th-century facade dominating a long stretch of the city’s most fashionable boulevard, Maximillianstrassse, in the heart of Munich. The hotel mixes traditional opulence with a contemporary twist, and the 230 rooms and 67 suites are accompanied by indoor pool, solarium, sauna and spa.

Fleming's Hotel Munich-City

+49 89 444 4660.

Part of the Fleming’s chain of accommodation and restaurants, Hotel Munich-City is centrally located, just a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof.

Eurostars Book Hotel

+49 89 599 9250.

Bookworms will find much to write home about at Eurostars Book Hotel, which dedicates each of its floors to a different literary genre. So whether you’re wandering the corridors with Don Quixote or bunking up with Anna Karenina, its 201 rooms have plenty space for tucking into a good read. Modern and stylish, the hotel doesn’t have the grandiose beauty of a Jane Austen manor, plumping instead for saunas, a lobby-bar, a business centre, meeting rooms for events, free Wi-Fi and small gym.

Hotel Olympic

+49 89 231 890.

This unusual hotel is popular with actors and media types - partly because of its trendy, central location near Gärtnerplatz and partly because of the combination of English colonial style and traditional Bavarian architecture. Its 32 rooms are tastefully furnished and follow a unique design scheme throughout. Definitely a hotspot to be seen at in Munich, yet still kept a secret from all but the in-crowd.

Hans-Sachs-Strasse 4, 80469, Munich, Germany

Creatif Hotel Elephant

+49 89 555 785.

Like someone knocked an array of paint pots over, this cream-walled hotel goes crazy with the bright colours elsewhere, but it works wonderfully. Rooms are basic, but all have ensuites and TVs, and each is dotted with retro furniture. You can’t miss the place from the outside as it’s sprayed with countless colours. Breakfast is included.

Mercure Hotel München Altstadt

+49 89 232 590.

This formulaic chain hotel in Munich, located between the Marienplatz and Stachus squares, is an affordable option right in the heart of the Old Town.

The Mercure Alstadt offers Wi-Fi access, covered parking (a rarity in central Munich) and basic catering, within a short walking distance of all the historic attractions of the city centre.

Motel One Munich-City-West

+49 89 5388 6890.

Located in the western part of Munich, but with good connections to the Old Town, Motel One Munich-City-West brands itself as a ‘boutique mote’, offering functional contemporary and stylish surroundings at budget prices.
