Mandarin Oriental, Munich — A Luxurious Getaway

The Mandarin Oriental, Munich is a world class hotel where luxury and elegance are matched by impeccable service and attention to detail. It is no wonder that this was the first hotel in Germany to be awarded a Five-Star rating by Forbes Travel Guide.

LOCATION

The hotel is tucked away on a quiet street in Munich’s old town, in a Neo-Renaissance building dating back to 1880. It is within walking distance to the city’s heart, Marienplatz, and a block away from the swank Maximilianstraße, the city’s shopping Mecca. It is also adjacent to Hofbräuhaus, the city’s renowned beer garden, and is close to the magnificent National Theater. The hotel is surrounded by fine restaurants, gourmet markets and bustling pedestrian streets.
