My wife and I stayed here as the first stop on our European honeymoon recently and, what can I say, this was a great start to the trip!

Before booking our accommodation for the trip, I did a lot of research on Trip Advisor. After finding out that much of Munich was quite expensive, I was surprised to find that the Mercure Hotels website was doing such a cheap online deal for their city hotel.

Yes, there may be a couple of sex shops near the hotel but, I find that's the same with most capital cities and their main or central train stations. We never had any problems whatsoever wandering the streets during the day or night, if anything the shops gave the area that extra bit of character. The location of the hotel is perfect, across the road from the main station and only a short walk into the main historical centre of town.

Onto the hotel itself. The lobby is quite small but the people in reception were always pleasant and helpful and always had a smile on their face. There was also free internet in the lobby, although only 1 computer to enjoy this on.

I am not sure if our room was recently renovated but, after hearing about some people's stories in regards to the size and decor of some European hotel rooms, we were very pleasantly surprised! The room was huge, and the bathroom was just as spacious. We had a king size bed as well as a separate sofa and all of it was very new and stylish. The bed itself was ultra comfortable and we found the shower to also be of the highest standards. There is also a safe which is always handy.
We had a window but it really only looked out over the hotel's beer garden, but that was fine as it added to the flavor of it all.
We had a wonderful trip in Munich and the hotel really helped keep our minds at ease.

Overall, we could not recommend this hotel more. If all the rooms were as clean and spacious as ours, you will not be disappointed.

(PS: We also can't recommend enough Lenny's free bike tours which we found from just outside the hotel as well. Fantastic!)
