elaya hotel munich city

Excellent location in an area that is quiet yet right next to the U1/U7 metro, the Löwenbräukeller beer hall, a Penny market, the 20/21 tram... Even the Hauptbahnhof (Munich Central Station) is not too difficult to reach by foot. Comfortable and convenient review all around. Good bathroom with all the required amenities and plenty of space. Room is pleasant overall, no issues or weaknesses really. Evelator present in the building for those that need it.

Easy to reach, the Elaya is in a district close to the main railway station. Because we were only in transit we failed to see much of the surroundings, but we took a stroll and marvelled at the huge brass kettles of the Löwenbräu brewery across the street - very instagrammable, if you are out for nice pictures. Even though we arrived close to 23.00 and everything nearby was closed, we managed to get a decent pinsa right at the hotel. And kudos for the receptionist, who printed out our train tickets for the next morning long after midnight (I even woke the poor guy up). The room itself was small but comfy and clean. The pillow spray was a nice touch.

The staff was great, very attentive, kind and always ready to assist. The location was amazing too - not far from the main station thus traveling from and to airport as well as to every part of the city was extremely easy. On some days, when we wanted to see more of the city, we went everywhere on foot since the hotel is quite close to the old town. It was a quiet, calm and safe neighbourhood and nothing like the surroundings very close to the main station. The breakfast was to everyone's taste and we liked it a lot, from warm meals to mueslis, pastries and a wide range of cheese - the breakfast buffet was great. And the coffee machine accessible 24/7 was a huge bonus for us. When coming back to Munich, we'd be happy to stay here again.

This is a superb city hotel, only 3 metro stations from the city center, with its underground garage, which we found very useful because we were there during the snow storm and you don´t want to have your car outside during something like this. Rooms were small but fully functional with spacious bathrooms (perfect water pressure even on a higher floor). Our rooms faced the inner courtyard and were very quiet. Breakfast is superb (smoked salmon included) and you can have coffee/tea/hot chocolate anytime during the day, which is a very nice touch.

The breakfast was copious and of high quality. Although the hotel if 30 minutes' walk from the city centre, the museum area is slightly closer and the tram & U-Bahn connections are good. There are also 2 different but excellent restaurants within 5 minutes' walk: the Löwenbräu beer cellar & garden and Da Rosario (Italian). The staff were all very friendly and helpful.
