We stayed at the Leonardo Hotel when we visited Oktoberfest a few weeks ago. It was a nice hotel…read morethat was clean, the desk staff was very friendly, and the rooms were small but accommodating. We arrived about 10:30am, which is way before normal check in time but they had a room that was open and allowed us to check in early. That was really great because I don't sleep well on planes and I really needed a few hours to rest before checking things out. The hotel is conveniently located right by the train station, so getting around is pretty easy. It took about 15 minutes to get down to the toursity area of the city. Not too bad, but we could have been a little closer. The hotel bar downstairs was nice, but a super bright in the evenings. It made it a less relaxing. Overall, this hotel was nice and a reasonable accommodation for the price.

Biggest pro for this location was that the metro stop was literally steps away as we exited the lobby. It was so easy to get to the center of the city and to travel around.

There is a world class spa (largest in Europe in a hotel). There is a nice and generous self-serve happy hour between 5-6pm with free wines and German lager. The rooms were clean and well equipped except the Chromecast function on the TVs didn't work for us limiting us to just a small handful of English-speaking channels (mostly news stations like CNN). Not a big deal since we weren't traveling to watch TV, but it would have been nice to be able to unwind to a movie on Netflix instead of having to face the real world via listening to the news. We were able to sleep well in the beds and the curtains blocked most of the light nicely so we didn't wake up at 5am every morning. There was a decent restaurant but avoid the pricier "dry aged" steaks if you are used to fine American steakhouses. The dry aged steak lacked flavor and could be more tender but was cooked to the right temp. There's a nice coffee shop attached with friendly service, good coffee, and even alcoholic beverages to enjoy in the afternoon or evenings. There's a rooftop bar on the top floor although we struggled a bit figuring out how to get to it. We tried to go to the top from the 5th floor, but it doesn't work that way. You need to go to the first floor then the far-right elevator only can take you up to where the rooftop bar is. This bar is nice with a great view, but a bit pricey so we only sprung for two rounds. We spent most of our time outside of our room in the central hotel bar near the lobby. The bar manager and staff were super friendly and took great care of us during our stay. We'd definitely be back - but wish the hotel was a little closer to the downtown area of Munich.

I got a free breakfast voucher via email and a welcome water which u must collect at the bar (but that's no big deal). I also made a request that I was arriving very late and could I have a room away from the lift lobby and sure thing - they satisfied my request. Location: I had two very heavy cases so needed to take a taxi from the Hauptbahnhof (Main Station). It's about a 10min drive.(sub €20) But my return journey was via S-Bahn. About 10 min train journey from Rosenheimerplatz (that's about 7 minutes walk from the hotel). For guests arriving late in the dark via this route one you turn right past the VW showroom - the hotel is 100m further on into this kinda darkish road - the hotel would benefit from an illuminated sign on the side of the hotel so u can find it easier for the first time - like a shining beacon of welcome. (S-Bahn is the German local train service within large cities and between towns in an area. The central portion (Stammstrecker) of it in Munich is underground too and all the lines link the Hauptbahnhof and key central stops including Marienplatz and the hotel's station - so it's just part of the integrated transport system). Check-In: Very helpful and cheerful receptionist even at midnight. Explained the free wi-fi codes are on the bottom of my bill. Also gave me the voucher for the free bottle of water. Three lifts to the floors - which despite being an eight floor hotel - there was virtually no waiting even at busy breakfast times - and the hotel seemed full (from the breakfast crowd). Bar / oneLounge: I ventured down to collect my free water and was taken back by the vast and intimate space they had created with soft lighting and it was packed out. My 6 hour train journey meant all I needed was sleep and couldn't join the party vibe. The bottle was a nice 0.75l still water. If you wanted more a similar bottle of Gerolsteiner costs €4. Tip: go to ALDI discount supermarket at Rosenheimplatz station and you probably come away with 8 liters! But note, there is a quiet lounge too directly near reception so if you need quiet time - this has big leather sofas and collaborative working space table and plenty of other stuff going on but Friday to Sunday I didn't see it being used. There is also outside seating and tables accessible through the bar. Room: This is not a luxury hotel but then again it's definately not what most of us imagine of a "motel" based on US movies perhaps. Rooms simple: No big wardrobe, a rail by the mirror and a cleverly designed hidden handing space by the window behind the bed/lamp facade. Ingenious for me. There is shelving space which makes up for no desk or vanity unit. There is a little round table and a stool which accompany the very comfortable leather chair. The bed was super comfortable and the sheets are fine. I mean just great (clean and white). Ok but I hear they are Egyptian Cotton if you are into details. There are downlighters in the ceiling but two spots above the pillow area. I found these a bit tricky as i directly the beam away from my face but then had trouble locating the switch in the dark as I felt the rotating mechanism covered it. (Leave that to the designers amongst you to check it out). Nice full length window that opened too. Thick curtains that blacked out the room. TV Enough local channels and dw.de which is an excellent rolling news channel in English. There are radio channels too. I didn't spend much time checking out it's features although I couldn't set up the alarm but I was dead tired :-(There is a warming artificial fire displayed on it when you arrive. Considering it was 22c and sunny - it felt a bit comical and made my friends laugh on Instagram when I posted my feet being roasted by the fire. Bathroom: Very well designed compact bathroom with walk-in shower, storage shelf and two big mirrors, oh and in my opinion very fluffy towels. (C Toiletries: This was a big surprise, organic linden flower face & handwash and 100% mint organic hair & body wash. I didn't want to leave the shower. Quiet: for a hotel of 8 stories I hardly saw anyone in the lifts - or even waited long for one Breakfast. Continental breakfast so meats, cheese, breads. juice, coffee, tea, croissants, cereals, fruit ... basically plenty. And even if you didn't book it it advance you can pay on the day but you need to do this at reception - so could get stuck behind someone checking in. Staff were even wandering around offering expresso. nice touch! I took mine to the bar area and worked well as the overflow place- the space age silver chair really made it! Housekeeping: Totally not intrusive, I'm fed up of hotels that knock too early. Housekeeping even made up my bed when i left it looking "tidy" to me but when i came back they had left all the lights on and the glowing articulated fire on the tv

It's a small hotel, but has great attention to detail. First, the design was warm, calming, and overall comfortable. I also liked the aesthetic, which felt a little Parisian (?). It was somewhere between modern and traditional (if that's possible), but most of all was cohesive. Everything just belonged together. The small garden was beautiful and peaceful and well-kept. The premise and staff exuded a pride of ownership and service, which I always appreciate. While the breakfast may not have been as elaborate as some larger hotels, it was fantastic. As an aside, it's nice to have everything included (the mini bar, breakfast, etc.). Even the sauna and steam room were a nice amenity. Other examples of attention to detail... the electrical outlets included adapter for different plugs including USB-C. The bathroom included a table for additional counter space. The front desk included frog gummies (frog was their theme). Who thinks of all this? All these little thoughtful details really demonstrate care. If I had to critique, I would suggest a few more equipment for the gym; it was a little lacking. Overall, great place.

It's not easy to find with a small sign and simple door, but walking in one immediately finds a a modern, well maintained residence. Though compact, the rooms are designed and outfitted with guest comfort in mind. Our room had a large bed with two duvet comforters so two sisters could share easily without arguing over the covers. A floor-to-ceiling book shelf separated the single bed while providing multiple nooks for storage. Storage was ample and well thought out - one wall was lined with hooks to hang, there were multiple small tables and a built in luggage stand with closet rod for hanging clothing just inside door. The toilet, sink and step in shower were all separate from each other making it easy to get ready in the morning. The fitness room was small but clean and we could fit a yoga and strength workout in. The sauna/spa area is a perfect place to hang out and relax, though we were disappointed the jacuzzi closes in winter. And of course, the breakfast. The hotel provided one of the large breakfast buffets Germans are famous for, keeping everything refilled and fresh throughout morning. There are also ample spots to hang out with friends if you don't want to stay in your room but you don't want to go out. You can even pick up a cocktail or bottle of wine at front desk, which is staffed by super helpful employees. The location is perfect- less than a block from one of the main streets Leopold Straße- and easy access to a phenomenal public transit system. An excellent place to stay when visiting Munich

The rooms were small and compact, and they definitely could have used more storage space as we had to struggle to find places to put our clothes in as we unpacked. But the hotel is definitely utilitarian. Although the maid never came to clean out our rooms in all the 3 nights we spent there, the facilities are very minimal yet adequate. I also appreciate that they use organic soaps and shampoos.

The location is extremely close, less than 5 minutes walking to Munich Central Train Station. About a 20 minute walk to Marienplatz. Room: We showed up a little early but got lucky with an early check-in since they finished cleaning our room early. It was really clean! Not a single suspect hair leftover that I could see. Everything in the mini-fridge is complimentary. There was still and sparking water, beer, cola, and either apple or orange juice. The room was also stocked with Ronnefeldt brand tea (German made and the same they have at breakfast) and coffee. There were also gummies left on the pillow. We had two twin beds and our room was configured so these were tucked back into an alcove which was nice and snug. The mattresses and duvets were pretty amazing. Insanely comfortable. The duvet was incredibly warming, so much so that we were able to leave the window open a smidge in the winter. All of the lights in the room can be controlled by the bed. The bathroom toiletries were mostly of the Rituals brand which smelled great. A rainfall showerhead and handheld shower were available. There was even a heated towel rack! The room was big enough for us to have both our suitcases open and still walk around comfortably. Front-Desk: The front-desk staff were all very helpful. They helped us map out routes to points of interest, deciphering our tickets and coordinating with our tour groups, and helped us with getting supplies when we ran out (tissue and water when it wasn't restocked). There was usually fruit (either apples or oranges) available at the front-desk. Sometimes there were chocolates. Breakfast: The breakfast staff were realllly amazing. A special shoutout to Merita (I hope the spelling is correct)! I think she managed the breakfast service. She was so friendly and after a few days remembered my coffee order! She always made my latte with a chocolate stencil which made it extra special. It was really chaotic in the mornings with everyone coming and going, but she managed to keep the buffet stocked and spotless. The actual breakfast itself was actually very good for a free breakfast. The menu changes a tiny bit each day but you'll find a hot food section with eggs and protein, granola and yogurt bar area, charcuterie area, and pastry area. The croissants were amazing! Honestly better than any I've had in Canada. The pretzels they had were also a sleeper pick. They managed to be soft even though they kinda just hung out there. I'd 100% recommend this hotel and definitely stay here again for my next trip!

A single staff member manned the desk when I walked in and he continued talking on the telephone for many minutes before finally hanging up to check me in.

The mini fridge contained still and sparkling water, orange juice, Coca Cola and a beer, all gratis. The room was plenty warm and the window opened completely such that I was able to climb out and see the city's snow-covered roof tops. That was probably my favourite bit about my stay at the Schiller 5. The wifi, while free, was not intuitive to connect to and fairly slow. The neighbourhood is a touch seedy (strip clubs, sex shops and the like line the street) but it is very central and if you arrive late in the evening there are still plenty of quick options for food. All told, Schiller 5 was solid enough for me to consider returning. And if you can get it for under €100/night, it's good value too.

In addition I came down to the lobby with a glass of wine and my phone to catch up on emails in was asked to leave because it was a working restaurant in the entire lobby was a place that you couldn't bring your own drinks to. The kid running the bar at 1 a.m. is not too blame but that is something that is totally ridiculous. I recently joined their rewards Club I don't anticipate becoming a top member by any means. Read into that as you will.
I travel frequently to Munich for work. The Ibis in Garching is located very close to my office. I…read morefind it clean efficient and well priced. The staff recognize me and call me by name; even though I'm only here about four or five times a year. It's these little touches that make it a hotel worth keeping. It is located in a growing business campus, that has amenities like food in the grocery store that are quite accessible during the week. Perhaps the only drawback is that on Sundays it is pretty dead around here. That's fine if you want peace and quiet and just want to get work done but but means you generally have to travel by U-Bahn or taxi to leave the area. This is not a super drawback because there's a U-Bahn/taxi station right next to the hotel. They offer free Wi-Fi in the hotel which is suitable for most purposes except extremely large downloads. For that you can purchase a premium service at six euros per day. Or just wait till you go to the office as I do. As for the restaurant on site it offers a surprisingly large array of menu items. The standard menu is also complemented with the daily specials pages. Perhaps not the cheapest restaurant around but all considered, if you have to travel and go somewhere else it works out to be a good value. So all in all I give this hotel four out of five stars. Please understand that in North America I am a devoted Marriott Hotel user but in Europe I have used many Ibis hotels in this ranks among the best of them for being clean convenient and value priced. Lastly there is an Ibis budget hotel next-door I've never stayed there but for the few extra euros I don't see why I would. The convenience of having the full-time hotel staff on the site is worth far more than a few euros; at least to me.
