Flemings Hotel München-Schwabing

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about Flemings Hotel München-Schwabing? It’s got this understated confidence that feels very Munich – not flashy, but you can tell they know what they’re doing. I mean, Schwabing itself is one of those neighborhoods that locals love but tourists often miss, sitting just north of the city center where the university crowd mixes with artists and longtime residents who’ve watched the area evolve over decades.

The hotel sits in this sweet spot where you’re close enough to walk into the heart of Munich (honestly, it’s maybe 20 minutes on foot to Marienplatz if you’re feeling energetic), but you’re also right in the thick of Schwabing’s cafe culture and nightlife. What I really appreciated was how the staff seemed to actually live in the city – they’d give you directions to places that aren’t in guidebooks, like this tiny bakery around the corner that opens at 6 AM for the best pretzels, or which U-Bahn entrance to use to avoid crowds during rush hour. The rooms have that clean, German efficiency thing down pat, though I’ll be honest – they’re not huge. But everything works exactly as it should, and there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that doesn’t try to wow you with unnecessary frills.

Here’s the thing about this place that really won me over: it feels like a proper Munich hotel, not some international chain that could be anywhere. The lobby has these leather chairs where you’ll actually see locals meeting for coffee (always a good sign), and the breakfast spread – well, it’s serious business with local breads and meats that taste like they came from the neighborhood markets. The 7.9 rating makes sense to me because it’s not trying to be a luxury palace, but for what it is, it delivers consistently. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle in Schwabing (honestly, it’s easier to just use public transport), and if you’re a light sleeper, maybe ask for a room facing away from the main street since the area does come alive at night – though that’s part of its charm. I’d definitely stay here again, especially if I wanted to experience Munich like someone who actually lives here rather than just hitting the tourist spots.

To book hotel in Munich during the famous Oktoberfest season, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts beer enthusiasts and cultural travelers from around the world.

• Radek from Czech Republic – 24 February 2025 (8/10)

  Good for business travel. It was all I needed. Wifi worked as expected, beds were clean and comfortable. The bathroom is clean with amenities. so nothing was missing. The hotel corridors are a little bit dark and the carpet can be changed, but it was just my perception.
  
  What could be improved: The self-check-in process is ok but would be better to do it online in advance as so many questions take time..

• Patrick from United Kingdom – 24 January 2025 (9/10)

  Spotlessly clean. Excellent location and quiet in garden facing room (406)
  
  What could be improved: No kettle for making tea in the room. No English language programmes on the television.

• Valerie from United States – 22 December 2024 (8/10)

  GM was so nice. I liked the restaurant, the fitness room.
  
  What could be improved: I think the decor needs more updating in the rooms. It was a bit depressing and it needs more light.

• Emir from Czech Republic – 2 December 2024 (9/10)

  The guy on the reception was helpful when I was checking in.
  
  What could be improved: System need to be improved when it comes to characters. If you have name with "ć" – like mine Heljić and I do booking reservarvation, then when I want to check in I can not use the character and I can not check in.
