This is a beautiful boutique hotel with five-star service and an unbeatable location. You essentially walk out onto the Marienplatz. It's also right near a train station if you need to venture out of the city center. The customer service is impeccable, and the furnishings are modern and elegant. There are some really nice touches as well. Some highlights were fluffy slippers, a good make-up mirror, black-out shades, double sinks, and a motion sensor that activated a bathroom light at night. Also, we were there on December 6, the Feast of Saint Nicholas, and received a little treat bag with nuts, fruit, and chocolate.||Nonetheless, there were a few downsides. (1) Noise. The perfect location means that the hotel comes with some noise. (2) Lack of privacy with the shower. The shower is fine, but it is all glass and is only curtained on one part. This could be really awkward for some travelers. (3) The turn-down service, which was . . . odd. We came back one evening to a bed that had been made up but nothing else in the room had been done, i.e. no fresh towels or amenities or emptied garbage. Not a big deal, but it seemed a bit pointless. ||Finally, (4), transportation. Taxis/Ubers can't go directly to the hotel without permission given zoning issues, so you have to go through a little administrative process at the hotel to make it work. However, the hotel offers pick-up and drop-off service at the airport for 125 euros each way for a car, or 175 euros for a van (pricing as of December 2025). We arranged for the car, but had a van each way for the price of a car. Admittedly, this is expensive but it's also quite convenient. It's worth it if you have any mobility concerns, excess luggage, etc. ||Overall, a five-star stay. Yes, you pay for it, but the hotel really does take care of every little thing so you can relax and enjoy Munich.
