Holiday Inn Munich – Westpark by IHG

Hotel Description

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much when I first pulled up to the Holiday Inn Munich – Westpark, but honestly, this place surprised me in the best way. It’s tucked away in the Westpark area – and I mean properly tucked away, not just “oh it’s five minutes from everything” tucked away. The thing is, that actually works in its favor because you’re getting a genuine Munich neighborhood feel without the tourist circus that happens closer to Marienplatz.

The Westpark itself is right there (hence the name, obviously), and I’ve got to say, having that green space so close is pretty fantastic. You can actually hear birds in the morning instead of just traffic, which is rare for a city hotel. The building has that clean, modern Holiday Inn look – nothing revolutionary, but everything feels fresh and well-maintained. Check-in was smooth, and the staff genuinely seemed to know the area well. I asked about getting to the U-Bahn and didn’t get the usual tourist map pointing – the guy at the desk actually walked me outside and showed me the quickest route to Partnachplatz station. Takes about eight minutes on foot, maybe ten if you’re hauling luggage.

What really sold me on this place was the attention to details that matter when you’re actually living somewhere for a few days. The rooms are proper four-star standard – spacious enough that you’re not bumping into your suitcase every time you turn around, and the beds are honestly excellent. I’m usually a light sleeper, but the soundproofing here is solid. You might catch some street noise if you’re facing the main road, but it’s not the kind that keeps you up. The shower pressure is what you’d hope for after walking around Munich all day, and there’s actually enough counter space in the bathroom to spread out your stuff. Little things, but they add up. The breakfast spread is pretty comprehensive too – proper German breads, decent coffee, and they don’t run out of everything by 9 AM like some places do.

Location-wise, you’re in this sweet spot where you feel like you’re experiencing real Munich life but can still get to the tourist spots easily. The U3 line gets you to the city center in maybe fifteen minutes, and honestly, I found myself enjoying the neighborhood walks. There’s a great little bakery about two blocks away that locals actually use, and the evening crowd at the nearby beer gardens is more mixed with actual Munich residents rather than just tour groups. Parking is available if you’re driving, which isn’t always a given in Munich, and the rates are reasonable for the city.

I mean, it’s still a Holiday Inn – you’re not getting boutique charm or historic character. But sometimes you just want a really solid, comfortable base where everything works properly and you can count on consistency. For the price point and that 8.3 rating, it delivers exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises. If you’re looking for somewhere reliable in Munich that gives you good value and puts you in touch with how the city actually lives beyond the tourist center, this is a smart choice.

Munich’s hotels showcase the perfect blend of Bavarian tradition and modern comfort, with many featuring brewery tour services and authentic Alpine hospitality.

• Kristina from Lithuania – 30 December 2024 (9/10)

  The room was very spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. It had a large balcony, and our windows faced a quiet courtyard rather than the street. There were plenty of built-in wardrobes for storing belongings and hanging clothes. Whether it was due to considerate guests or excellent soundproofing, it was remarkably quiet, even though the hotel was fully booked.
  
  Breakfast was very good—hearty, with a wide selection, though the coffee was average. While the hotel could use some updates, I must commend the staff for creating a very cozy and warm atmosphere. It was lovely to spend the evening in the hotel bar or at the seating area.
  
  Getting to the city center and the airport was straightforward, with a metro station just 400 meters away and a bus stop right next to the hotel. Highly recommended!
