Karlsplatz, Karlsplatz)
The 54 rooms at this quiet sleeper near the Hauptbahnhof
are done out in trendy greys and blacks, accentuated by flashes of lime and purple. Bath-
rooms are a snug fit and staff English is
nicht so gut
, but all in all a decent, if vibe-less,
place for centrally-based snoozing, breakfasting and web surfing.

Flee the urban hullabaloo to an Alpine fantasy land where rooms al-
lure in carved wood, painted bedsteads, woollen rugs and crisp, quality bedding. In one
room a portrait of Ludwig II watches you as you slumber; breakfasts are honestly organic.

Though now not as excitingly different as it once was, Munich's first boutique
hotel is all about understated retro design and amiable service. Rooms won't fit a tonne of
luggage but are nicely dressed in creamy hues, tactile fabrics and subtle lighting. Guests
rave about the breakfast; a smorgasbord of fresh fruit, deli salads, smoked salmon and or-
ganic cheeses.

hotel in a funky location might be for you. Rooms double up as mini art galleries and staff
couldn't be more accommodating. Parking costs €15 a night.
