Excellent service and facilities in a central (5 mins walk to central station, 10 to Old Town) but calm setting. Superb breakfast, great gym and spa, and loved a calm quiet drink in the bar to end an evening.

The Charles is by far one of the best hotels in Munich. I frequently stay there when I’m in Munich for business. It is very conveniently located near the heart of the city. The main pedestrian areas are an easy walk from the hotel. In spite of being near everything, it is located on a quiet street next to a park. Guests get the best of both worlds - near the action but in a quiet area. All Rocco Forte Hotels, include the Charles, have a classically cool Italian vibe. The lobby lounge and cafe are both excellent. In summer, sitting outdoors with a park across the street is perfect. And one can’t go wrong ordering a nice summer drink to relax after a long day. The staff are very responsive, formal (like any tiptop hotel) and friendly. I like the style. When I checked in, I was greeted by one of the managers who wanted to make sure that I was fine after travelling from the Far East. I had to made a change to my reservation, which they were able to do immediately even through it was a busy time. Using WhatsApp to communicate with the staff was a nice touch and made it convenient. The gym has most everything one needs for a solid workout. Sometimes I’ll use the spa. The spa isn’t cheap, but it offers all sorts of treatments. I’ve used it before as has my spouse when she travels with me. Overall, the Charles is a fantastic hotel and no doubt I will return.
