Hotel Description
Look, I’ll be honest with you – when I first pulled up to the ibis München Parkstadt Schwabing, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star chain hotel. But you know what? This place actually surprised me in the best way possible. It’s tucked away in the Parkstadt Schwabing area, which if you’re not familiar with Munich, is this sort of up-and-coming neighborhood that locals are starting to discover but tourists haven’t totally overrun yet.
The thing about this ibis is that it gets the basics really, really right. I mean, the rooms aren’t going to blow your mind with fancy amenities or anything, but they’re clean, modern, and honestly more spacious than I expected. The beds are surprisingly comfortable too – I’m one of those people who usually tosses and turns in hotel beds, but I actually slept well here. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays at night, even though you’re still connected to the city. The Schwabing area has this residential feel that’s different from staying right in the Altstadt where you’ve got tourists stumbling around at all hours. Check-in was smooth (the staff actually seemed happy to be there, which is rarer than it should be), and parking wasn’t the nightmare it can be in Munich – they’ve got spots available, though you’ll pay a bit extra for it.
Here’s what makes this location work though – you’re about a 15-minute tram ride from Marienplatz, but you’re also walking distance to the English Garden’s northern sections where it’s less crowded and more like where actual Müncheners go to relax. There’s this great bakery just a few blocks away that I stumbled onto during my morning walk, and honestly, their pretzels beat anything you’ll find in the tourist areas. The U-Bahn connections are solid too, so you can get anywhere you need to go without much fuss. I stayed here during Oktoberfest season (yeah, I know, not the smartest timing for budget-conscious travel), and while the city center was absolutely chaotic, this area stayed relatively calm. The 7.5 rating makes total sense to me – it’s not luxury, but it delivers exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises. If you’re the type of traveler who wants a clean, comfortable base to explore Munich without paying city center prices, this ibis really hits that sweet spot.

Reviews
Vojtěch from Czech Republic – 15 January 2025 (8/10)
This is my favourite accommodation in Munich. The value for money is good enough and the city centre is reachable within 30 minutes.
What could be improved: I visit the hotel regularly, so I would welcome it if the management would invest in renovations and improvements. For example, one of the two elevators has AGAIN (it somehow worked in October) a door that is not opening properly for the third year.Ktis from United Kingdom – 2 January 2025 (9/10)
Clean, warm and comfortable rooms. Staff very helpful.
What could be improved: The only negative thing is that there is a long distance to the metro stationKameliya from Malta – 2 December 2024 (8/10)
Close to my family
What could be improved: They can at least a kettle for cup of tea in the morning if you are not up to going for breakfastSteven from United Kingdom – 1 November 2024 (7/10)
location is fine and accessible by U-Bahn
What could be improved: Upon check in my friend was allocated a random room and then was charged EUR740 to retrieve his luggage (held hostage!) if we didnt pay again for a room we hadnt booked !!! which resulted in my having to have an assertive discussion with nightshift that when we checked in and requested pur room key that we shouldnt have been allocated ANOther room by a contract staff member. This did have a good ending as we received a full refund but the situation was 100% avoidable by the hotel.Vojtěch from Czech Republic – 18 October 2024 (9/10)
My second stay this year and I am happy that they finally managed to fix one of the elevators. This is my favourite accommodation in Munich. The value for money is good enough and the city centre is reachable within 30 minutes.
What could be improved: I have no negative comments.Helena from Portugal – 8 October 2024 (9/10)
All good as expected for ibis
Stefano from United Kingdom – 23 September 2024 (7/10)
Comfortable bed, clean room, nice staff
What could be improved: Power sockets are not conveniently placed in the room. The location is not central, but easy to reach. It should be better illuminated at night.Tueno from Australia – 13 September 2024 (8/10)
The room was lovely and clean. The bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful
What could be improved: Maybe extra pillows would have been nice (but we didn’t actually ask for more so maybe not a fair comment). The door to the bathroom was noisy. The shower head would not stay in place on its cradle and has the be held by hand or it just sprayed the wall. Reported to reception but wasn’t fixed.Jennifer from United Kingdom – 4 September 2024 (8/10)
The rooms and bathrooms were fine.
The café was great and checking in was really straightforward
What could be improved: There were no tea and coffee facilities in the room. This was very disappointing as I had to go to the cafe and purchase a cup of tea for the morning.
The cocktails were not fresh.Dennis from Belgium – 31 August 2024 (9/10)
We had a great stay, the rooms were basic but clean. The breakfast was good. The check-in was quick and efficiënt and the staff was very friendly. Nothing bad to say about this hotel, we had a great stay!!
The room had airconditioning and a good shower.
What could be improved: The location was far outside the city centre and the metro/tram connections weren't that great.
