My girlfriend and I really enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Monaco. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our room was great! We had a double with twin beds and it was very clean and spacious. The beds had comfortable pillows and comforters. The deco was simple which allowed us plenty of space for our luggage. The windows even opened easily for some fresh air. The bathroom was also spacious with a wonderful shower with lots of hot water and good water pressure. It is in an easy to find location close to the train station and a short walk to many attractions. Highly recommended!!
Munich has so much to do, I wish we had longer to stay. We were here only 4 days and that wasn,t enough There are so many wonderful museums and shopping. There are also so many places to take side tours to – it is such a convenient location! We took side trips to Dachau and Salzburg wish were well worth the time. We are the typical Americans who went on the sound of music tour. I will have to return to see ll that i missed!

Munich, a convenient location

Munich, Germany
Some years ago now, I was born and bought up in Perth, Western Australia.
For some many years, I have made Scotland, my home.
Along with my passion for all things Celtic CFC, My family, my career, my life, is all in Glasgow.
Today I am in Munchen, capital of Barvaria. Residing at the warmest, sweetest and most friendly little hotel in Munich, The Hotel Monaco.
I have stayed here previous, hence my return. A lovely feel, a genuine warm atmosphere about The Monaco Hotel.
Thanks to Christina, the proprieiter and her wonderful staff.
Great not only for the tourist person, like me, but also the familly, the business person, couples, lovers.
If you ever come and stay, you will see!!
Today the weather not so bright. Pity, for it has been recorded the sunniest and warmest April in many a year for Munich.
I love Munich, the bars, the shops, the people, thier friendliness and ever so keen to assist you, always prevailing.
I love her culture, her museums and galleries. So, so much history here.
Munich is not a large city, with an excellent public transport infrastructure. Trams, U bhan, S Bhan. And cycles. I have borrowed a friends cycle these past 2 days, and it is really quiet amazing the ground, the places you can get to, at easy reach with very few hills. a flat inner city.
Today I am going back out to the Olympic Centre, the holding of the Olympic Games 1972.
A swim awaits me in the original Olympic swimming pool. Normally I swim like how Schumacher use to drive in the wet, fast! But today, I will swim slowly, casually and savour every moment of just being there in the fmous Olympic Swimming pool and listen out for the roar of champions past.
Anyway, I am on my Holidays. Serious sports begins again on my return to Glasgow!
By then I will be missing Munich and The Monarch, yet looking so very much forward to returning again.

Stay in Munich
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009I have had a great time on my trip to Munich. I highly recommend the Hotel Monaco in the city center. It is incredibly convenient to everything….the train station, shopping and historical sites. Plus the staff are very helpful and the breakfast is well worth the money. I went to Salzburg on my first full day.
Easy two hour train ride. I took the Hop On Hop Off bus which gave me alot of flexibility to see many sites in a brief time. I hiked the hill to the Fortress. But you can choose to take the elevator. I was in need of exercise after all this great food! Today I rented a bicycle and enjoyed circling the English Garden. Very flat and tons of trails. Easy to go in circles….but can’t really get lost. I also enjoyed the open air market and a little shopping. That could be overload! My first night I ate at the famous Hofbräuhaus. But tonight I enjoyed the Hofbraeuhouse just down the street from the Hotel Monaco and highly recommend it (same street and head toward the City Center). Tomorrow I head back to Frankfurt. Hope you have a good time here, too.
