Hotel Grünwald Garni

Family-run, friendly and efficient, plus it's well-priced and located for travel into Munich and beyond. Hotel Grünwald Garni is a little hidden gem in Munich's suburbs.
Fodor's Expert Review
This charming countryside-style hotel is not in Munich city center, but in a quaint Bavarian suburb about 20 minutes away by easy public transport. It's good for drivers, too, as there is a large car park. Rooms are large and comfortable, if basic, the breakfast is tasty, and the welcome is genuine and friendly. A quiet option for those who are starting a vehicle tour of Bavaria or who want a more gentle neighborhood vibe in their hotel.

Room
Rooms are big and light, with varying designs - some have high ceilings and long windows, others have cute sloping ceilings. The decoration is traditional, with colored carpets and wooden furniture.
You Should Know Considering the suburban feel of the hotel, it's a shame that the rooms are not that quiet when the windows are open - there is some street noise. But in winter this would not be a problem.
Bathroom
Bathrooms, too, are large, and very clean. The showers are hot and roomy as well.
Lobby
Run by the same family for three generations, and you can tell: the welcome at the wooden reception desk is cheerful and professional, and staff are very helpful.
Tip You can buy your ticket for the S-bahn from reception - easier than trying to juggle the machines at the station!
Dining
Breakfast is great, particularly the bread. Eggs are cooked to order. In summer, guests can eat outside on the terrace.
Drinking
Guests can take coffees into the 'relaxation room' but there's no bar as such.
