A beacon of refinement in a storied European city, The Charles Hotel Munich is a taste of upscale luxury in Munich. Established in 2007 and built by architect Christian Sattler on the site of a former university library, this tasteful hotel is part of the new Lenbach Gardens. The walls within display a large collection of original paintings by the celebrated Franz von Lenbach, a 19th-century German artist, blended dynamically with modern elements and Art Deco-inspired shapes. Individual character and charm grace each of The Charles Hotel's 160 rooms and suites, many of which offer views of the city or surrounding gardens. Among the most spacious in the city, the guest abodes here are outfitted with top-of-the-line features like Bavarian limestone finishes, towering picture windows, French balconies, flat-screen televisions, and wireless internet access. A further welcome in the midst of a lively city, The Charles SPA offers an indoor pool, heated mosaic lounge chairs, a Finnish sauna and aromatherapy steam bath, and a fully equipped TechnoGym fitness center - not to mention the menu of invigorating and relaxing treatments. Start with a Surrender Massage and then try the Detox Body Ritual to refresh and renew like never before. This is your time, at The Charles Hotel.

Location is excellent, rooms lovely, staff fabulous but the restaurant when busy lets itself down. Either not enough service staff or the kitchen is understaffed as the wait on the night we arrived was ridiculous! Not very family orientated… over an hour for kids to be served a simple meal that was dried and very ordinary! The adults food came out over an hour after entree… they did apologise but for kids being fed, very, very slow! The rest of the hotel is exceptional!

We just returned from a truly memorable stay at The Charles Hotel. From the moment we arrived until our departure, the staff took care of us with genuine warmth and attentiveness — the kind of service that makes a stay unforgettable. A nice touch: being able to reach the concierge directly via WhatsApp made communication easy and seamless throughout our stay. Our suite, with its beautiful rotunda windows, was stunning — bright, elegant, and with a gorgeous view. Breakfast was equally impressive: a truly delicious and generous spread that set us up perfectly for the day. Dinner at Florio restaurant was a real highlight of our stay: the soft ambiance and carefully chosen music turned a simple dinner into an intimate, romantic evening. The location, quiet yet close to the Old Botanical Garden and Königsplatz, is a real plus. A hotel that fully lives up to its 5-star reputation. We will definitely be back!

We stayed 4 nights in June 2026 on the 7th floor. The room and amenities were of a very high specification. The view was excellent and there was no traffic or disruptive noise whatsoever. The room was beautifully kept and the cleaning staff were wonderfully thoughtful and attentive to detail. Throughout the hotel staff were friendly, welcoming and professional. The location of the hotel is very central with easy walking to many shops and attractions. The Hauptbahnhof is only 5 mins walk which easily opens your options. There is a good quality tour company only 2 mins walk away. This is a superb hotel in every way and I would highly recommend it..
