Hotels in Munich

Hi,

My daughter and I will be visiting Munich for the first time in April. I'm looking for hotels that are not too expensive and in close proximity to most sites. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Any hotel near an S-bahn is a good bet, as you can get just about anywhere in Munich via train.

Motel One is an inexpenisve chain and they have several locations in Munich. I've stayed at the one near Munich Ost train station, and found it very convenient.

Take a look at the Platzl: great breakfast around the corner from the Marienplatz

We stayed at Hotel Metropol about five years ago. The rates look to be about 210 euro a night now, but it was practically across the street from the train station. A good walk to Marienplatz but doable. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Next door was another cute hotel Cocoon, which had a nice bar.

We stayed at the Platzl and thought it very good. Excellent location, good breakfast, close to good spots for lunch and dinner. The room was comfortable and the price was right.

We stayed at the Platzl after Dukey recommended it and it's quite nice with a fabulous location. It might be a whiff over your budget but perhaps nice for a splurge for you.

I went on Booking.com and put in some random dates for April. Found rates from 281-295 euros for TWO nights. So may be more in your budget than I previously posted. Good luck!

All B&B. IBIS, Motel One and Premier Inn Hotels in Munich should be under 200$ per night. Premier Inn Sonnenstrasse is right in the City Center. Maybe the best option for you.

You might also look into Kings Hotel Center and Kings Hotel First Class (which we stayed at in November, under $300 for two nights, great breakfast, booked on Hotels.com, small room, but quite comfortable for a few nights). Both are located an easy walk from the Hauptbahnhof and walking distance to Marienplatz. Check the hotel directly as well as booking sites as prices can vary wildly.

Thanks, I will check these out. I think I've stayed at the Premier Inn in Southhampton, England before (near the cruise port). Might be the same hotel chain.

Thank you for the links! I will look into both of these. Hauptbahnhof is the main train station I believe so that will be very convenient

This area puts you in proximity to many of Munich's key attractions such as Marienplatz, the Viktualienmarkt, and the historic Old Town. Options like Hotel Adria or Hotel Sendlinger Tor offer affordability and central locations. Additionally, the Maxvorstadt district, known for its artsy vibe and close proximity to museums like the Pinakotheken, could be worth exploring for reasonably priced hotels like Hotel Luitpold. I hope you have a wonderful stay in Munich!
Thank you. I'm so excited to be going with my daughter. This trip will be a graduation gift to her. We always have a good time traveling together. Your post is very helpful. Thanks again!
