Platzl Hotel
Hotel was excellent!! The rooms were fantastic, the location of the hotel couldn’t be any better. We were able to walk to everything. The lobby bar was a great place to grab a drink at night, and the staff what beyond wonderful. We definitely recommend staying here during your trip to Munich.

Maritim Hotel München
I read reviews, good and bad before we came and it’s all true. The hotel is on a street with strip clubs and casinos and the alley way to the hotel from the street felt unsafe (drunk/ drugged groups of people every time we walked through) and there’s no security in the hotel - you don’t need a key ...
