Hotel was very nice and the bed was extremely comfortable. Close to the tram/train central station, a grocery store and near restaurants and sights. However, it's a little sketchy at night as it is near the central station. We had no issues.
great hotel and breakfast buffet--wifi needs to be upgraded

Perfect central location and courteous staff. Accommodations were clean and comfortable although the green shag carpet could use a refresh. The area in front of the hotel appears tol be boarded up and going through transition, but would still recommend for easy access to Munich sites.

Great stay at Excelsior by Geisel
The room was clean and comfortable, and the location couldn’t be more convenient—just a 5-minute walk from the main train station. The on-site restaurant was very nice, but what stood out most was the bed—it was exceptionally comfortable. After a long day of walking and sightseeing, it was exactly what I needed for a perfect night’s rest. Highly recommend if you’re looking for both comfort and convenience in Munich!

Breakfast was great. Was disappointed restaurant wasn’t open on the weekend.
Room with A/C was very comfortable. Family had a room without a/c and it was too hot to be comfortable.
