I stayed at Hotel Königshof for three nights when I visited Munich. It's a luxury hotel located right in the heart of Munich. I had a great experience here and it was definitely one of the best hotels from my entire trip. The service, room, location, amenities, food and bar was excellent! The hotel is extremely luxurious. I have no complaints and would highly recommend it.


The welcome chocolates



I had one of the Deluxe rooms. It was quite large, very clean and beautifully furnished. I'm not a huge fan of chocolate but I loved finding truffles on the pillows every night after coming back to the hotel. The room comes with free satellite TV and Wi-Fi (with a good/fast connection; one of the most important things for me in a hotel room). If city noise is a problem for you, the windows here are all sound-proof.



From past experiences I realized the toiletries/personal care items that come with each hotel washroom are small but significant factors that influence my opinion of a hotel. The washroom here came with pretty much everything I needed and more. Bathrobes and slippers were complimentary, there were lots of (monogrammed) towels, heated towel racks and a wide range of Etro products - including what you see in the photo + shower cap, soap, body lotion, sewing kit, shoe polisher, comb, etc..



My absolute favourite thing about this hotel was the breakfast. It was included in my room rate but by itself, it costs about €30/$38 which I think is well worth it. There's a wide selection of delicious food from the buffet, and there's also a lot of things on their a-la-carte menu you can order, which is also included in the price. Breakfasts are one of my favourite parts of any vacation and hotel stay. So naturally, a good hotel buffet breakfast is very important for a memorable hotel experience. I probably would think twice about returning to a hotel if I didn't enjoy their breakfast.

I didn't get a chance to try it but if you're ever staying at this hotel or in Munich, you might want to try Königshof Restaurant, their Michelin Star restaurant. (& 18 Gault Millau points!)


Here's their bar. I came here one night for a bellini. The service was really good and I loved the atmosphere. It was really relaxing and the perfect place to have a nightcap.


& lastly, some photos of their lobby in the evening.

All in all, it was a great hotel and I highly recommend it if you are visiting Munich.
