4-Star Hotels in Bavaria, Germany

This is our favourite hotel in Nuremberg!! Attention to detail on every step of the experience, their crews were simply amazing! They are happy to serve you, not one person but every staff that I encountered. I got a surprise birthday cake in my room with a hand written note, am truly grateful and heartfelt. So thank you, Karl August your neighbourhood hotel. 5 stars and beyond. We will be back again for sure!

I stayed here temporarily to work on a paper. The footsteps upstairs were incredibly loud, I'm not sure if it was the stairs or something else. The room itself was a nice studio, well-decorated and laid out, but it smelled of new construction and cooking. Check-in was quite easy, but the room didn't even have a deadbolt. People often gathered to smoke outside the entrance downstairs. I wouldn't really recommend it for single women who are easily scared. It's right next to OEZ, so shopping is quite convenient. It's a very cheap hotel, and for the price, the environment was decent. The sheets had some dirty spots, I don't think they'd been changed. I just shook them off and went back to sleep…

This hotel is super close, only about a 5-minute walk from Munich Central Station. The hotel itself is a bit older, but it's very well-maintained and clean. For a Japanese person, the room felt incredibly spacious and comfortable.

At that time, the front desk enthusiastically gave an accommodation guide. I looked carefully the next day and found out that there were free coffee, tea and flying alcohol. Parking is free. There is also a sauna.

The hotel is situated in a quiet and peaceful residential area with just a 10 min walk to Nordfriedhof station and also nearby tram station. The breakfast buffer spread is great, my favorites are salmon + horseradish and croissant. Extensive selection of beverages from juices, coffee, tea and milk. The room provides nice bedding with comfortable pillows and the toilet is spacious.

Overall, a rather average experience – especially for a 4-star hotel. The location is definitely the biggest advantage of the hotel, as it is very conveniently located close to the main train station. The hotel was also flexible and helpful with a few practical things: luggage storage worked without any problems, and getting a second room key was also straightforward. Unfortunately, the actual hotel standards were less convincing. The room was generally clean, but the cleaning felt rather superficial. There was still some dust and dirt in the corners, including in the bathroom. It wasn’t bad enough to make us uncomfortable, but for a 4-star hotel, we expected a higher level of cleanliness. One of the biggest issues was that the air conditioning was not working during our stay. We were not informed about this in advance or when checking in. Luckily, there was a thunderstorm during the night, which cooled things down a little. Without that, the lack of air conditioning could have been a significant problem. The room amenities also felt rather basic. The pillows were far too thin, and the towels in the bathroom felt almost like disposable towels and were not particularly comfortable. Overall, there was a recurring impression that the hotel was providing the bare minimum rather than trying to offer a proper 4-star experience. The breakfast itself had a reasonable selection and was generally fine. However, the breakfast room was located in the basement and felt quite dark and cramped. There was also one unpleasant interaction at breakfast. When I arrived, I was asked for my room number and gave it as requested. A few minutes later, a staff member came back and told me that breakfast was not included in my booking. The way this was communicated felt more like an accusation than a simple question or clarification. I was quite sure that I had booked breakfast, and after checking again, she found that it was indeed included. There was no real apology afterwards. This may well have been an isolated incident, but the interaction was still unpleasant and did not improve the overall impression. Overall, our stay was average to slightly below average. Given the price and the expectations that come with a 4-star hotel, we expected considerably more. The location is really the main highlight.

The location couldn't be better. It's right across the street from the train station, and thanks to that, the convenience store access was also great. All subway lines are connected to the central station, so whether it was the exhibition hall, the airport, or deep into the old town, getting around was very convenient. The bed was very comfortable, and the water pressure and drainage were both fine. The air conditioning was a little bit of a letdown, but it wasn't a problem for use. Breakfast might get a bit tiresome if you stay for a long time, but there's a good variety, making it suitable for choosing what you like. The only minor drawback is that outside noise isn't completely blocked out.

The room isn't huge, but it's sufficient. The bathroom and bedding were clean. They provided a complimentary bottle of water. However, the mattress dipped in the middle, which wasn't very comfortable. The location is incredibly convenient, very close to the subway station. There's a PENNY supermarket just across from the hotel's side entrance. Breakfast was mediocre. The lids on the hot food containers need repair; they wouldn't stay open. I'm quite tall, and even I had trouble closing them once opened. One day, a lid wouldn't stay open while I was serving myself, and it fell and hit my hand. It broke the skin, and seven days later, I still have a large bruise. (The restaurant supervisor gave me some medicine). The room had a balcony, which was lovely, but it seemed unused for a long time. The table and chairs were dusty, and there were even cobwebs. I wiped some of it, but stopped because my arm started to hurt. If you're a solo traveler and don't spend much time in the room, I wonder if the hotel has rooms without balconies, which might offer more interior space.

Location & Transportation: When I was planning my trip to Munich, I spent ages looking for a hotel. I initially wanted something near the train station for convenience, but then I worried about safety. Staying near the exhibition center felt a bit too far out. I stumbled upon this hotel, which was described as being in a safe residential area with a metro station right outside. Plus, I heard KK is a well-known Austrian chain. Indeed, the metro (U-Bahn) is literally right outside the hotel entrance (check the last picture). The elevator takes you directly into the station, which is super convenient. You can't buy tickets directly in the elevator area, but the ticket validation machine is right at the elevator entrance. If you need to take the S-Bahn, it's easier to use a different entrance to avoid getting lost. Getting to major attractions like Marienplatz is quick and easy from here.

Booking via trip meant I got a really good deal on this hotel. I know the chain quite well because I used to live in Germany however I have never stayed at this hotel before and I was really pleasantly surprised. The room was exceptionally spacious and even though we were close to the airport I did not hear any noise outside. The only issue was the showerhead would not stay upright unless the shower was on, it obviously needs tightening from the inside. If I am flying out of Munich airport in the future I would definitely look at this hotel as an option (although it’s 20€ a night to park your car!)
