The hotel is situated just outside of the city but easily reached via the underground train. We found it to be spotless and ideally situated for quieter restaurants, bars and shops if you want to escape from the city buzz.

I stayed at the Nikolai Hotel for two nights. It was a great experience. The location is brilliant, right in the middle of the Schwabing district. Even though it is so central it is surprisingly quiet at night. In fact it was one of the few times that I stayed in a hotel where ear plugs were simply not needed.... More

We stayed here for five days. The owners and staff were wonderfully lovely. We had a few requests, had to do some flight arrangements, had questions about transportation and directions, etc. All of it was done with impeccable courtesy and helpfulness. Jasha and Alexandra were particularly great. The owner even popped out for tobasco sauce one night just to make... More

We had a recent stay at Das Nikolai Hotel and loved it. The Leopold area it is located in is very nice with lots of restaurants and shops, beautiful architecture and right by the English Gardens. It was very easy to walk to many sights and as well the trains were a block away and very convenient. The hotel has... More

Stayed here for two nights this week. Had previously stayed in one of H'Otellos a couple of times but very sterile. Pictures on line looked more appealing from Das Nikolai's website and so it turned out to be. Reception was friendly and efficient. I actually arrived about midnight first evening and was greeted easily and given key with absolute minimum... More

We had a great time at the Nikolai Hotel. It's situated around the corner of Leopold street, a nice street with a lot of shops. Also a very nice biergarten (Bachmaier Hofbräu) is located very close by. The hotel is just great. Nice spacious rooms, good bathroom and comfortable beds. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They do their... More

One of the best breakfasts I've ever had in a hotel. Great croissants (better than in France) and an unbelievable selection of fresh fruits. (only way to improve would be to have fresh squeezed juice). Otherwise the room was fine (a little bit small) and the location was convenient (25m by foot to center and 5-10 by metro). Very friendly... More

I'd forgotten there are hotels like this.. where every detail down to the drinking glass in the bathroom has been chosen with care. I believe the owner of this hotel is on the premises - but even if not, it feels that way. Agree with another reviewer that the entry is off-putting- it is around the corner from the street,... More

This small boutique hotel is a great find offering excellent value. Well trained, friendly and professional staff. Rooms are admittedly small, however, are very comfortable, well appointed and very cleverly designed to maximize use of space. Add in the surprisingly good breakfast (freshly cooked eggs if you so choose) and you have an excellent base for your stay in Munich.
