Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms had a very convenient and interesting design with a separate shower, WC, and washing basin. They were spacious, with a big rain shower and modern interior. The only downside was that I found them a bit cold.
The hotel is conveniently located near a subway station, making it ideal for sightseeing. The rooms, while lacking a kettle and safe, are clean, updated, and cleverly laid out. The service was friendly overall, although some staff appeared uninterested. Breakfast is great, and the staff is very nice. The facilities are satisfactory, with the dining options being worth the cost.
The hotel had a cozy atmosphere, and the staff was attentive and friendly. The rooms, though compact, were well-designed but lacked scenic views. The location was convenient with easy access to public transportation. The dining experience was satisfactory, with a good selection of food. However, the morning cleaning noise was a bit disruptive.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and excellent; spacious and quiet, with large windows overlooking a peaceful, treed courtyard. The modern decor added to the overall nice ambiance. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff always more than happy to assist. The location was central, allowing for a convenient walk to the city center, and close to various restaurants. While dining was disappointing, the breakfast was okay, and the option to sit in the courtyard outside was a bonus. The facilities were top-notch, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant stay.
The hotel surprised us with its boutique feel despite not looking like one from the outside. The rooms were lovely, clean, and comfortable, though the design of the open-plan bathroom wasn't our favorite. Overall, it was a great stay.
The hotel is ideally located near the subway, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are modern with a nice balcony view, although street noise can be heard at times. The service is friendly and professional, but there were some concerns about additional charges. Dining was good overall, especially with the option to sit in the courtyard. However, some found it slightly overpriced. The hotel offers convenient facilities and is great value for the price.
The hotel is ideally located, close to various restaurants and an easy walk to Munich's attractions. While the rooms had unique wooden louvers instead of curtains, they were cozy despite the July heat. The service was impeccable, perfect for short stays. The dining options were of high quality, though slightly overpriced. The hotel's historical building contributes to its charm, and the breakfast was satisfying.
The hotel's rooms are small but cleverly designed with plenty of storage. However, they can feel tight and bright due to the lack of blinds on some windows and ineffective air conditioning. The service was friendly and helpful, though there were delays for room service. The location is ideal for both business and leisure, close to public transportation and key areas in Munich. The dining experience was average, with reasonable options. One downside was the extra charge for parking. Overall, a suitable choice for those looking for a well-located and reasonably priced stay.
The hotel is conveniently located near public transportation and popular attractions, offering great comfort and service. However, there were some issues with room readiness and price transparency that affected the overall experience.
The hotel is in a superb location, near Oktoberfest and just a short walk from the city center. The rooms have immovable blinds fitted the wrong way round but are quiet and comfortable despite the layout with steps to reach them. The service is top-notch, with a helpful and friendly staff always ready to assist.
The hotel rooms were big, modern, and had balconies, but the cost was higher than expected and not justified due to misleading information about the bed arrangements. The service was a bit strange with inconsistent availability and some staff being rude, even though others were helpful. The location was convenient with easy access to the old town and nearby attractions. The dining experience was mixed, with a variety of dishes but limited choices and replenishment issues. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory but could be improved.
