Ruby Lilly Hotel Munich

I visited two years ago, and now on my second trip to Munich, I came back again. The atmosphere here is so warm and inviting dim lighting, calm music, and a design that beautifully blends old money elegance with modern touches. The amazing cocktails make it all even better. The staff are incredibly friendly, and Liv especially kept checking in to see if we needed anything. She helped me find a cocktail style that matched the drinks I love! I also had some cocktails crafted by Pierre. absolutely professional. Everything here is both top-notch and genuinely welcoming. And for a hotel bar, the prices are very reasonable. 👍🏼

Last night, I was at the bar of the Ruby Lilly Hotel with some friends. I absolutely loved the decor! The sofas, lamps, shelves, and the bar itself… truly an amazing design. On top of that, the cocktails were fantastic, you absolutely must try them if you visit. Huge thanks to Pia for the delicious cocktail and to Liv for the warm, friendly service and lovely conversation. I’ll definitely be staying here next time I’m in town! 100% recommended!

Wonderful stay at this hotel. Its prime location near the train station made it extremely convenient for travel. Additionally, it's very walkable to the city center, which allowed me to explore easily. The room was spacious, with a chic and cozy vibe. I loved the attention to detail in the decor and the added bonus of having a Marshall speaker to use. Overall, I really enjoyed the vibes and ambiance of the hotel. I would definitely book again and highly recommend it to others.

We had a delightful weekend at the Ruby Lilly last month! A huge highlight was the bar, Liv was absolutely fantastic. Her friendly, upbeat energy and great service really made our nights there special. And to top it all off… we’re pretty sure we met Eiffel 65! 😄 It was such a fun and unexpected twist to an already memorable stay. All in all, an amazing experience—we’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Munich!

Second time staying at this hotel during the film festival. The arrival was promising thanks to the friendly and professional guy who welcomed us. But everything went downhill from there. The rooms are poorly soundproofed if your neighbor plays music or talks loudly, you’ll hear everything. Even with the windows closed, the sound of the passing tram is very noticeable. Resting properly was difficult. I forgot my toothbrush in the shower and realized it at the airport. I immediately called and asked for it to be sent by post (at my own expense). I sent several emails and made follow-up calls, but got no clear or effective response. In the end, they just said it wasn’t found. The tone over the phone was far from friendly, with no real effort to help or keep a returning guest. A real shame , I left with no desire to come back.

Great hotel, comfortable room and good shower. Provided good shower products which was appreciated when backpacking. We opted out of a daily room clean and swapped for a day-3 room clean instead and got a free cocktail each for it at the bar which was a great touch and good incentive to help environment. Good location close to main station, train stops and vegan restaurant.

I honestly can explain how I loved this hotel, the location was PERFECT "for me at least" the clean rooms and the AMAZING and helpful staff at the front desk. the check in was so fast and you just do it by yourself which was so easy. the size of the room was great specially for a solo person. even the housekeeping people were so friendly and nice. so many attraction, stores and restaurants were close by and the museums along with the Marienplatz area was like 10 minutes walking which I was going on daily. I would DEFINITELY recommend this hotel for anyone.

Staying here was such a good experience! The staff was incredibly nice, the head concierge woman and Domi were so friendly and helpful. The hotel is in a great location close to the train and other areas. It’s also modern and clean. Would definitely recommend!

On a recent Trip to Munich, had the pleasure of staying at the Ruby Lilly for 1 night. It is done quite well in an industrial style, beautiful large bar , great rooftop patio. Staff are friendly, helpful and a special mention for Dominic. He made sure the cheese we had bought during our trip was refrigerated properly as the rooms do not have a fridge. The room itself was cozy with large windows , clean and comfortable bed .

We loved our two-night stay in Munich. The bar and lounge area is comfortable, stylish, and inviting. The room was small, but the details and design were very cool. Everything was very well organized and very clean. Most noticeably, the staff were incredibly attentive, very kind, and always accommodating. They went above and beyond for us with every request and made our stay incredibly pleasant. I would come back to the Ruby Lilly next time - no question.

Loved this hotel! Liv is the definition of customer service. She went above and beyond and made our stay so fantastic! Liv I hope you see this. My family and I cannot thank you enough.

Our room is approximately 12' x 18'. If you sleep with a partner, one of you will need to climb up a step to access your side of the bed. It is a platform bed that faces a set of windows. There is no room to open your suitcase(s). It is a "Green" hotel which has a requirement that you insert your room key into a slot to access lights and ac/heat. Not a problem except it isn't clear how to turn off the ceiling lights without removing the key from the slot. I can't express how much this room is uncomfortable, unwelcoming, and confining. I will never stay here again and if I had the option, I would move to another hotel immediately.

Chris! That's all you need to know for the bar. If you are looking for a great cocktail he will point you in the right direction and had a little flair. One of the best espresso martinis I have had

This is a nice hotel for a single or a couple. Technologically advanced with everything from check in to check out. They give you a free smart phone that you can use during your time in Munich which was a very delightful surprise. Room is small but neat with everything in there perfectly spaced out. Watch out though. The curtain was dark so if you are not careful you may end up over sleeping! There is a bus station nearby but that one does not allow you to buy the ticket but most bus has the ticket machine in the actual bus.

I've stayed here twice approximately one year apart and have always had a great experience. This is my go-to hotel in Munich. The rooms are clean, trendy and modern. There are good amenities: the in room toiletries smell amazing, take along handy (cellphone), in room safe and tablet. I've stayed in both the cozy room and the lovely room, and for two people the cozy room is just a bit too cozy if you're used to American-sized hotels. I would definitely recommend getting the breakfast. It is excellent, mostly organic and "typisch deutsch" without being too traditional. Late night bar is great. Good cocktails and good service. This is an interesting area, as Dachauer Straße has a lot of restaurants and clubs but is definitely not touristy. It's a short 10 minute walk from the main Bahnhof, 2 minutes to the subway and a 5 minute subway ride to downtown.

This is not a bad hotel, matter of fact, it has a very modern/hip lobby that reminds of me citizenM at the Amsterdam airport when I had a long connect flight. The front desk staffs are layback and friendly. Hotel is a block away from the subway that's convenient, the area has some selections of restaurants in the walking distance. So, why the 3-stars? Reason #1, The room is TINY!!!!! Maybe if you are one person in this room, you can leave your luggage out in one corner that you don't really use. If you have two people in the room, you really can't leave any luggage open unless you want to walk on your bed cuz you won't have a walk way at all. The room is so small, you have to walk through the toilet room to the shower. And the sink is next to the bed and TV, as crazy as that sentence sound, if you see the photo you'll understand the whole set up in this room IS THAT CRAZY! There is no closet to hang your cloth, you have 3 hooks on the wall right next to the door right next to the sink! They are so close to each other you can't even properly hang your coats without them overlapping each other. They have a tiny safe that's attached to the table that the sink is sitting on. They also have the smallest side table I've ever seen next to the bed, it's about 2 1/2 iPad mini and only one side of the bed has side table. The rooms I had in the middle of Shinjuku Tokyo were bigger than this!!! Ok let's move on from the tiny room situation, I think you get the picture. Another reason why I rated this cool hotel only 3 stars because THERE IS NO PRIVACY! I'm staying with my husband which I basically seen everything that I could see for 4 years. But I really don't need the glass shower area to see him or myself to be seen when him or I trying to clean myself. Remember I mentioned that you'll have to walk through the toilet room first to get in shower? The toilet area is also about 2 feet away from the bed with a thin glass door. It might as well has no door cuz you can hear the other person breathing let alone using the toilet. Reason #3 why this place only gets 3 stars - there is no phone in the room for you to call the front desk. I literally have to go to their site and find the hotel phone number and dial with the mobile phone they have in the room. And the TV broke twice tonight and we just checked in couple hours ago. (Update: the TV is broke again this morning after maybe 2 hours of it working last night) Reason #4, the shower is strange. You can choose from rain head or hand held, but your handheld actually have to be hold by hand because it doesn't sit at an angle, also the water would stay at the temperature that you set for about 2 minutes then it drops about 10° for about 5 seconds that makes it really cool and then heat up for about 20° and burn you for 5 seconds then go back to the temperature you set! Real fun for my 15 minute shower let me tell you. If you are single traveler, enjoy cool hotels, like to hang out at the bar and mingle, I think you would like this place a lot. If you prefer a comfortable room that you can leave the luggages out without tripping over it or not feeling claustrophobic, I suggest you look somewhere else. I usually stay at Aloft near the Haupbahnhof which is about the same price, twice as big nice rooms! It's right across the main train station which could seem a little seedy but it's actually fine inside the hotel and super convenient if you want to get food/shopping later at night or take train to work or travel, that's the main station that goes to all kinds of places. Ok let's wrap this review up with some nice words for this hotel - it is quiet inside the room and mattress is queen size which is kinda small but it's comfortable! They also offer breakfast buffet from 6:30-10:30am for €17 if you don't feel like going out.

My husband booked our stay here for the first part of our honeymoon trip and we loved our stay! The staff is so friendly and helpful. I believed we stayed in a lovely room which was great for our 5 night stay. The breakfast was amazing and so helpful when we had such busy days planned. I wish we could visit more often! Thank you Ruby Lilly for the hospitality:)

No iron in the rooms, tablet is waking up the guest. The lights control is not logical, not clean at all. The design does not compensate for the other issues. The mattress is good though. Not recommended for business stays.

Got the chance to stay here for my last night in Munich. Loved it! The staff was super nice and helpful. They make awesome drinks at the bar and the decor is super hip. Can't wait to stay here again!

Such a super cool bar. We went on a Thursday so it wasn't too crowded. Love the whole decor. Great place to meet friends for a drinks. Will be definitely going there for sure.

Great little find in Munich. It's close to the city's central attractions and is very easily accessible by public transportation. 24-hour bar/lounge and a nice casual-chic vibe. Smallish rooms but they're cleverly appointed. I also appreciated the complimentary Handy smartphone--a smartphone with a data plan is placed in every room. It's an incredibly convenient perk for foreign travelers.
