The three-star Hotel Wallis offers comfortable rooms a few blocks south of the station, very close to the Old City “Ring”. The location, along busy Schwanthalerstrasse, makes it a convenient, if busy, home base.

From the street, the three-star Hotel Wallis looks like a throw-back to the 1970s, with a somewhat brutal facade and the mid-century font to go with it. Inside, however, things are a bit more up to date, with a gold-and-marble lobby and six floors of rooms that are either renovated or unrenovated.

The more expensive renovated rooms sport a trendier decor, with striped carpets, modern furnishings, giant wooden headboards, and nice blue-tiled baths (not to mention a Nespresso machine). Unrenovated rooms have more typical (and snoozy) desks, tables and beds. All bathrooms have a combination shower/tub.

Rooms facing the street will be brighter, but they do pick up some noise--light sleepers should absolutely ask for one of the rooms facing the back courtyard. (Extra bonus: All rooms facing the back have a small balcony, as well!)

A large, splurge-worthy breakfast buffet (with salmon, shrimp and sparkling wine) is available for an additional fee.

Location: Very central

1.8km to city center

The blocks south of the Hauptbahnhof, or main train station, feature a staggering number of hotels. Many of Munich's sex shops can also be found here, as well as a dizzying range of shops, restaurants, bars, and cafés. Far to the south, this area morphs into a genteel commercial district speckled with green boulevards and quiet side streets. The hotel-heavy part of the area is conveniently located next to Stadtmitte and very well served by public transportation nonetheless, allowing for easy escapes from the hectic tourist-oriented atmosphere.
