Appart – Aldars 8

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first walked up to Appart-Aldars 8 on Landwehrstraße, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the unassuming spots end up surprising you. This little apartment hotel sits right in Ludwigsvorstadt, which honestly is one of those neighborhoods that locals love but tourists haven’t completely overrun yet. You’re literally a ten-minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with all that train station chaos and the somewhat sketchy vibe that comes with it after dark.

The apartments themselves are… well, they’re exactly what you’d expect from the name. It’s not fancy, but everything actually works, which I’ve learned not to take for granted in European city hotels. The kitchenettes are small but functional – I mean, you can make coffee and heat up some Leberkäse from the market down the street, which is really all you need. What I really appreciated was how quiet it gets at night. Landwehrstraße isn’t a major thoroughfare, so you’re not dealing with constant traffic noise, though you will hear the occasional tram rumbling by on nearby streets. The 7.8 rating makes sense to me – it’s not going to blow your mind, but it does what it promises without any major disappointments.

Here’s what sold me on the location though: you’re right in the sweet spot between the touristy Altstadt and the more authentic Munich neighborhoods. Walk fifteen minutes north and you’re at Marienplatz doing the whole glockenspiel thing with everyone else. But walk ten minutes south and you’re in areas where actual Müncheners grab their morning coffee and read the paper. There’s this great little Turkish place around the corner that I stumbled into – can’t remember the exact name, but it’s got those red and white checkered tablecloths – and the döner was better than anything I found in the city center. Plus, if you’re planning to do any day trips (Neuschwanstein, Salzburg, whatever), being close to the Hauptbahnhof without the noise and crowds is actually pretty perfect. The S-Bahn connections are right there when you need them. I stayed here in late September, and while the area definitely gets busier during Oktoberfest season, it never felt overwhelming the way some parts of Munich do. It’s the kind of place that works well if you want to experience Munich like you’re temporarily living there, rather than just checking boxes on a tourist itinerary.

Reviews

• All in all, not the best experience, but nothing bad happened. I think with some attention to detail it could be a bett – Hoebbel from United States – August 7, 2025 (5/10)

  Location is very convenient and though we did not interact much with the manager or owner, they were responsive. A/C in each room.
  
  What could be improved: Disappointed in the cleanliness of the bedding. The duvets were clean, but if they come off they expose comforters that are not suitable for guests. Shower curtain has mildew. Kitchen supplies are not adequate (broken and dull knives). Apartment has a very distinctive odor (not necessarily bad, but like an Arabic restaurant). One bed was broken, but thankfully we didn’t need it. At no time did I feel unsafe, but it is street is dark and has some a sketchy neighbors (betting parlors, strip clubs). All in all, not the best experience, but nothing bad happened either.

• Bad experience – Hossam from New Zealand – June 27, 2025 (4/10)

  The property was in the city center where everything is very handy. A lot of restaurant and cafés around . And it’s 5 minutes walking to Marienplatz. Very big apartment with a lot of beds and AC in every room. The staff were nice.
  
  What could be improved: No windows or any kind of ventilation .the apartment smells bad.The kitchen was not clean . Old and cheap furniture. No hood in the toilet. No free parking and the parking nearby costs 4€|h . The overall experience wasn’t good. I don’t recommend it.

  Sehr gute Lage, große Wohnung, Ausstattung reicht aus, zwei Bäder mit Dusche, zuvorkommender Gastgeber, guter Kundenservice, großer Kühlschrank, auch für lange Aufenthalte geeignet, man kann alles besorgen was man braucht in unmittelbarer Nähe.

  What could be improved: Heruntergekommene Möbel, Wohnung sehr sehr schlecht gereinigt, kein Parkplatz vorhanden weit und breit, Parkhaus kostet 35€ über Nacht, Türen schleifen am Boden, extrem schlechter alter TV.

• Der var masser af plads til en store familie. Meget centralt og pengene værd – Mohamoud from Denmark – July 29, 2025 (9/10)

  Det var nemt at finde. Nemt at komme i kontakt med værten. Det lå meget centralt og det var billigt.

• Struttura consigliatissima – Ciccione from Italy – August 7, 2025 (10/10)

  Vicinanza dell'appartamento al centro, alla metropolitana e ai vari supermercati.
  Proprietari della struttura gentili, cordiali e sempre disponibili ad esaudire ogni piccola richiesta.

• Struttura super consigliata! – Ciccione from Italy – August 5, 2025 (10/10)

  L'accoglienza e la disponibilità del proprietario della struttura.

• Es war angenehm günstig und praktisch. – Anonymous from Germany – July 29, 2025 (7/10)

  Die Lage von der Unterkunft war super.
  Es war alles gut zu Fuß erreichbar
  Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich.
  Wir waren zu 7 und hatten genug Schlaf Möglichkeiten. Auch war es dann zum schlafen sehr angenehm da man kaum etwas von draußen hören konnte.
  
  What could be improved: Mir war die Sicherheit schon wichtig daher fand ich es schön das zur der Haupttür ein Tor davor war bloß war er leider kaputt und daher für jedenen zugänglich. Leider waren auch nicht alles in einem guten Zustand zb Türe oder das Sofa hat etwas eklig ausgeschaut mit den Flecken.
  War aber nicht so schlimm da es auch andere Sitz Möglichkeiten gab. Der Geruch war aber sehr unangenehm in der Unterkunft
