the best thing about this place is the pool/sauna area. very nice, very relaxing. the rooms are standard holiday inn style. nothing special. it is a good 10 minute walk to the u-bahn station, so i took taxis most everywhere. the location is not near any tourist destinations and restaurants near the hotel are not so great, with the exception... more

We chose this hotel because it was close to an event we were going to. This hotel is not close to the main city, however less than 10 minutes walk you can find easily the underground metro, we found transport very good. The hotel was welcoming, clean, the restaurant is bit too expensive, but in general it was a good... more

Its a gloomy hotel with a not too friendly staff, the location is not great either, the other Holiday Inn in the City Center is easier to get to the City from. I don't like the bathroom and the fact there is no place to put anything. The hallways need new carpets and in general it doesn't have a vacation... more

The room was what you would expect of a holiday inn. Poistives include a nice pool, 10 mins walk from the u bahn. No real negatives. Munich is terrific. We went on Mike's Bike Tour & had lots of fun. We eat in an Italian about 8 min walk from the hotel towards city centre, it was called "Italy" [very... more

I have stayed at this hotel on a number of occasions but never written a review. I noticed that there were a few poor reviews and wondered why. I thought I should give you my experiences. The hotel is not the closest to the city centre. However, if you don't mind a walk you can walk to the centre and... more

The Holiday Inn Schwabing appeared to be mainly a business hotel. It is located on Leopoldstrasse on the bus line number 123 which connects to the Munchener Freiheit subway station. Though it is not close to shops, the bus line runs frequently as do the subway trains. The property features various amenities which include on site restaurant, indoor swimming pool... more

Got back yesterday from a 2 night stay at this hotel, which has undergone a total refurbishment of the rooms and bar areas. The staff on reception and in both bars are friendly and efficient, and have good local knowlege of the Munich area. We booked on a room-only basis, but had a meal in the American-themed bar on the... more

Stayed in this hotel back in the 1970's, it was very popular then, it was build for 1972 olympic games. Today, it looks from the outside, like a barcode, 3 identical eastern German style blocks( even if this is in Western Germany). The location is not good, it is 15 miunutes walk to Schwabing the northern Munich city center. Nothing... more

I can't understand the bad reviews - obviously the place has undergone a refit since they were written. Stayed in the Sud (south) wing - room was good, clean - infact everything you would expect from Holiday Inn for 80 euros a night per room. Pool/sauna was excellent. Reception/staff great. Breakfast included and what a breakfast. You'll need a taxi,... more
