Check in here if you want an up-to-date hotel that's strewn with antiques, fine paintings, good oriental carpets, and a sense of Munich's sometimes gracious 18th- and 19th-century past. The venue is an elegant 19th-century town house, fronted with chiseled white stone blocks, in the upscale neighborhood known as the Lehel district. Inside, an attentive staff welcomes you into a small, boutique-style hotel replete with a library-style bar and many of the decorative accessories of an upscale private home. Bedrooms are cozy, colorful, and well maintained, each with a different decorative theme and good reproductions of antique furniture. Literary enthusiasts appreciate the fact that these premises, in an earlier incarnation, sheltered the noted (within Germany) writer of novels, poetry, and children's books, Erich Kästner (1899-1974).
