MOTEL ONE MUENCHEN-EAST SIDE, Munich

The hotel sits in the popular Haidhausen neighbourhood on the eastern bank of the Isar, known for its cafés, shops, and the French Quarter character. The Haidenauplatz stop (bus and tram line 21) is directly outside, providing a direct link to the city centre in about 10 minutes. Ostbahnhof station is a 5-minute walk away, with S-Bahn, U-Bahn, and national rail connections to Marienplatz, Munich Central Station, Messe exhibition centre, and Munich airport. For drivers, the hotel is easy to find and offers on-site underground parking. The area also features several restaurants within a 5-minute walk and a Lidl supermarket nearby.

Rooms are designed in a modern, minimalist style typical of the Motel One brand. They are compact but functional, with carpeted floors, a desk, heating, and a safety deposit box. The private bathrooms feature a large walk-in rain shower, hairdryer, and complimentary toiletries. All rooms are non-smoking and include allergy-free and soundproofed features. Some rooms have extra space and clothes storage, or a desk. Request a courtyard-facing room for quietness; street-facing rooms can pick up noise from the tram and railway lines. Windows are double-glazed, keeping the room quiet when closed. No kettle, coffee machine, or telephone is provided in the room.

Breakfast is a self-service continental buffet offering a selection of organic and local products. Options include fresh pastries, boiled eggs, fruit, vegetables, and vegan cold cuts and spreads. No hot dishes such as scrambled eggs or bacon are served. The breakfast area is the hotel lounge and bar, which can feel cramped at busy times; seating includes low tables and bar stools. Coffee is available at breakfast, but take-away coffee requires purchasing a reusable cup. The bar is open 24 hours for drinks and snacks. There is no restaurant on site, but several dining options are within a 5-minute walk, including pizzerias, bistros, and a café.

No wellness facilities are available on site. The bar provides a comfortable evening setting, and the hotel has a small sun terrace. Outdoor furniture and a sun terrace can be used when weather permits. The nearby natural reserve Isarauen and the Werksviertel district offer walking and exploration options. Bicycle rental is available at an additional charge for those wanting to explore the city on two wheels.

The hotel offers a 24-hour front desk, free Wi-Fi throughout, and luggage storage available at any time. A safety deposit box is provided in each room. The lift provides access to all floors, and the property is wheelchair accessible. The on-site underground garage costs €15 per day and cannot be reserved in advance; it can accommodate larger vehicles. Pets are allowed for an additional charge. The hotel also offers bicycle rental. There is no airport shuttle service. Daily housekeeping is available but may be limited; the property focuses on sustainability, reflected in the use of disposable cups in rooms rather than a coffee machine.
