Charles Hotel - Munich
Sophienstrasse 28, Munich, Bavaria, Germany
Neighborhood: Altstadt
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Forget about Oktoberfest kitsch and the cliches of provincial Bavaria. Today’s Munich is a modern, cosmopolitan city — and it’s finally starting to get the modern, cosmopolitan hotels it deserves. It’s still a bit light on the funky little boutiques that a lot of us wish for, but the opening of the Charles means at least the high-end business/luxury guest will be well looked after.
It’s a Rocco Forte hotel, which means it’s already got a leg up on the competition in terms of design; far from being another beige business hotel, the Charles looks crisp and contemporary, and just rich enough without crossing over into excessive opulence. It’s a new build, but constructed in a style that suits Munich well.
Many rooms look out over the Old Botanical Gardens, a surprisingly idyllic setting for a hotel right in the heart of the city center. And all rooms are spacious and wide-open, with all the electronic bases covered and the sort of deeply indulgent bathrooms the luxury customer has come to expect. There’s a fine Italian restaurant, as well as 24-hour room service, and all the facilities you could ask for: spa, pool, fitness, business center, events spaces.

What I liked:
I have been many times and the hotel is impeccable.
What the hotel could do better:
I was at the hotel on business with another colleague, and we also rented a conference room for 4 hours. We each requested checkout an hour later and we were both told that was not possible. That was very disappointing. Most hotels will accomodate at least an hour late checkout and I am SURE the Charles could have done that but they refused.

What I liked:
location THATS ALL
What the hotel could do better:
We did not like the fact that when the heat was not working in our room that we were blamed because we took the key out of the electric holder. We can afford to pay a high price for a hotel room, as we did here, but to have to pay and additional $25+ to use the interned is just not correct. We did like the fact that that when we were finishing our breakfast and it was 5 minutes after breakfast ended, anyone in the dining room, including us, could not get another cup of coffee.

What I liked:
Friendly yet very professional service, impeccable facility (public spaces and rooms), and proximity to the main train station (from which we could easily take day trips).
What the hotel could do better:
I never did figure out how to make the room a little cooler at night (below 20 C) but I just opened the window and was fine.
