Holiday Inn Munich - Schwabing

Everything in the hotel is at least 20+ years old. If you just want a bed to sleep over for night or two then it's okay, otherwise look elsewhere. It's an older model hotel, and so amenities, restaurant, and extra are very expensive. Because it is old, it doesn't have much to like. It's an old hotel, it smells a bit old. The hotel needs to at least repaint the walls and replace carpets to get the cigarette smoke out. read more

Hotel is on the northern outskirts of Munich. 15 minute walk to the nearest subway station although very easy to get to. If you are conducting business in Munich or going to the congress center this hotel would not be high on my recommendation list. The hotel front-desk staff seemed less than friendly although the waiter and room service staff were very cordial. Overall the cleanliness of the room was suspect and the cost of internet serviced was outrageous, ~$30 per day. This hotel, while billing itself as business traveler friendly was far from it. read more

This hotel was pretty good. One good feature is that, unlike most European hotels, three internet-connected computers were provided in the business center and there was normally no or a short wait to use them. This was nice since although I had my own laptop with me, I refuse to pay the exorbitant internet-connect charges that most European hotels charge. There was a mouse in our room one night - discovered at 2 AM - and we had to change rooms which was a hassle and which resulted in us being very tired the next day. For our inconvenience, the manager on duty comped us for breakfast, which we didn't plan on purchasing anyway since it was way overpriced. The breakfast was very nice even if overpriced but, being light and simple breakfast eaters, we did not get the full value of the breakfast. Anyway, we both thought we should have received more consideration for the trouble of having to move to another room in the middle of the night due to a mouse in the room. read more

Overall, the hotel served the purpose well. The trip was entirely leisure and I just needed one night so overall it was a pleasant experience at the Holiday Inn.

If you want a place outside the crowds of the Marrienplatz and are willing to walk 4 blocks to the subway, this is a great place. Nice cafes, near the theater district, and friendly staff.
