Upon entering the lobby one is tempted by the smell of chocolate and coffee wafting from the café - a good omen. All rooms are incredibly spacious, decorated in subtle tones with the odd oriental vase as a kind of subliminal branding. In addition to cable TV, climate control, dataport and video or DVD players in standard rooms, suites have the added benefit of stereos, play stations, great views and a special button to summon housekeeping. Perhaps the best aspect of the hotel is the fact that it's right next to the Hofbräuhaus.

Breakfast €24.
