"Why book? For the best location at the best value in Munich.Set the scene A block of prime Munich along the cobblestoned Sparkassenstraße functions, almost, as a campus for Platzl Hotel and its sister businesses—restaurants Pfistermühle and Ayinger Am Platzl and bars Platzl Karree and Josefa. But nothing about it feels developed or artificial. Rather, there’s a feeling that this space has been carved out over centuries. Here, fine businesspeople milling about before heading to whichever conference has brought them to town while their families gather for their concurrent day trips and tours.The backstory This is an independently-owned property, founded in 1956 as a 3-star hotel by Franz Inselkammer—an entrepreneur with his own Ayinger brewery and beer tent in Oktoberfest—above its namesake, the bygone Platzl stage. While that theater shuttered in 1995, the hotel rages on—a 1988 rebuild brought it to 4-star status.The rooms Old-school Bavarian brass—dark wood paneling melds seamlessly into built-in wardrobes and shelving for your belongings, with cream-colored walls and clean white linens offering the perfect balance. Some rooms are bigger than others, so be sure to upgrade if space is a priority. Food and drink Options on the premises are boundless, ranging from a comprehensive buffet breakfast to those aforementioned affiliate establishments. Coffee and cocktails in Josefa, the lobby bar, require the least steps from your room, but venture further to Ayinger Am Platzl for that classic Bavarian beer and schnitzel. One would be remiss, while staying here, not to dine at Pfistermühle, which earned its spot in the Michelin Guide by serving divinely modern twists on those Bavarian classics beneath the vaulted ceilings of its 16-century mill setting. The neighborhood/area Right around the corner from Marienplatz, Munich’s Central Square, the hotel is walking distance from many of Munich’s most heavily-trafficked sites and from a major hub of public transit. Despite its proximity to the bustle, however, Platzl’s immediate block is narrow and quiet—one might mistake it for a small stretch of village.The service Lovely, demure, and comprehensive. Be sure to book a bicycle to ride around the city at your leisure. Accessibility Accessible rooms are granted upon requests, and the hotel keeps its own wheelchairs to transport guests who may need them."
