⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I recently had the pleasure of staying at Excelsior in Munich, and I can’t recommend it enough! As an American citizen navigating my way to a new city, I was incredibly grateful for the outstanding support from the Geisel management team.From the very beginning, they made the entire process seamless. Every accommodation I requested was met with enthusiasm and professionalism. It was a breath of fresh air to communicate with a team that not only spoke excellent English but was also genuinely committed to ensuring my needs were met. In today’s digital age, having the option to discuss my needs over the phone was invaluable, and I appreciated the personal touch.A special shoutout to Andrea and her manager Suraya! Their warmth and dedication made my stay even more enjoyable. They truly went above and beyond, making me feel welcome and cared for. It’s clear they have a passion for providing top-notch service, and it made all the difference during my time in Munich.If you’re a foreign traveler looking for a hotel with a responsive and accommodating management team, Excelsior is the place to stay!

The room is equipped with a comfortable bed and a good shower, the air conditioner also works well. The staff is friendly and ready to answer any question. The hotel is located in the area of ​​the central station so there is high accessibility to diverse public transportation.As mentioned, the hotel is located close to the central station, so unfortunately there is an unpleasant population outside it. In addition, they are not very communicative with messages sent through the booking website (through which we made the reservation for the hotel), I sent them a message about 3 days before our arrival and they did not respond to it.

Pictures make it look much better than it actually is. Service was poor. A staff member barged into our room randomly during our trip without concern for the disruption and invasion of privacy. Front desk staff seemed over worked and were more combative than helpful. Location is right near the train station which was a bit loud and sketchy.

A super nice hotel right in the heart of Munich. The design, the rooms, everything was great. It's a pleasure to be a guest here. The staff in the breakfast room is very attentive and friendly. However, I had to deduct a star from the room. I booked a premium room and saw in the shower that the rain shower (not the hand shower) was full of dust that I couldn't get off. I'm guessing it hasn't been cleaned because the cleaner can't get to it without a ladder? But that was the only thing that could be criticized in the room. Otherwise everything was spotlessly clean! I deducted a star from the service because the employees at the reception don't greet you when you enter or leave the hotel. As a guest, I expect to hear a “hello” on the way to breakfast in the morning. Especially when you greet the employees as a guest.Nevertheless, I can only recommend this hotel.

Stayed for three nights. It is close to the station. Although the sound of trams passing by can be heard from the room on the fifth floor, it does not affect your sleep. It is convenient to walk to the city.

What a spectacular hotel! The staff is wonderful and the hotel is perfectly located between HBF Station and Old Town. Many restaurants and shopping areas to choose from as well. The rooms are updated, clean, and very comfortable. We tried the breakfast buffet which was nice, but a little expensive. I’d recommend exploring the local restaurants and coffee shops. We will stay here again without hesitation!
