Breaks In Munich – Munich Hotels

Posted March 11, 2010 by BookingBuddy

s You may not expect it, but Munich is one of the most romantic cities around. What else would you expect from a city that has “Munchen mag Dich (Munich Loves You)” as its motto? Combine that with fairytale castles, crystal clear lakes, towering churches, and scenic villages, and you have all you need for a romantic break with a loved one. Don’t forget to sample some Bavarian beer at one of the city’s famous Bierkellers, where you’re served huge pitchers of beer by buxom waitresses.

See
Nymphenburg Palace – This sprawling palace and its surrounding gardens used to be the summer residence of the Bavarian rulers. Explore the beautifully manicured park, with splashing fountains and hidden pavilions. The Badenburg pavilion boasts the first heated, indoor pool in Europe, and features ornate Chinese wallpapers in some rooms. The Amalienburg pavilion is an excessive, rococo creation, with a circular hall of mirrors decked out in gilt and blue.

Stay
Anna Hotel – You’ll be forgiven for thinking you’ve mistakenly walked into an art gallery when you enter this hotel. Drawings, paintings and sculptures are displayed all over the hotel and in the rooms, and the restaurant boasts a unique and very colourful lighting scheme. The hotel offers a complimentary mini-bar and breakfast buffet, and is located in the heart of the city. Room rates start at about £150, and include breakfast.

Eat

Paulaner Brauhaus – Eat and drink to your heart’s content at this popular old brewery. The building’s interior is filled with a gleaming maze of copper pipes and barrels, serving beer fresh from the tap. Don’t miss out on the edibles here as well – the menu features typically Bavarian meals that compliment the liquid nectar flowing out of the taps. Try classics such as potato soup, pork knuckles, or a wiener schnitzel – hearty and delicious, and you don’t have to be a beer aficionado to enjoy them!
