Hotel Torbrau

Hotel Torbrau

The first thing that strikes you about this hotel is its location. It is just inside Isartor (one of the old city gates) and only two blocks from the colourful Marienplatz in the heart of Old Munich. As an added bonus, the Isartor railway station is close by and this provides easy access to almost all of Munich including the long-distance railway station and the airport, without having to change trains.

This is a first class, family run hotel with 92 rooms and suites. We were told that the hotel had been operating since the 1400s.The building is a typical 5-storey concrete building of indistinguishable age but the décor is a nice mix of traditional and modern. The lobby is small with a lovely polished marble floor, a small seating area opposite the reception and an enormous chandelier which seems rather overwhelming.

The recently renovated rooms are modern, very clean and comfortable. All rooms are equipped with bath/shower, air-conditioning, telephone, cable TV, radio, computer and fax modem, safe and hair dryer. Minibar and coffee making facilities are free of charge in all deluxe rooms and suites. Non-smoking rooms are available and I always appreciate these. There is nothing worse than getting that smoky odour when you first open your hotel door.

Room rates include a breakfast buffet. Everything imaginable was served - cheese tray, meats, Danishes, fruit salads, and we especially enjoyed the smoked salmon. During the rest of the day, a selection of scrumptious pastries is served in the café and, during summer, also on the balcony over-looking the street. There is also a restaurant (run by an outside organization) and a business center. The hotel has outside parking and garage parking at a cost of around US$15 a day.

Standard room rates are fairly high at around €200 a night but the rooms are newly renovated, comfortable and the level of service and friendliness is high. The Torbrau is family owned and we were treated like such during our visit from the friendly staff at the front desk to the host at the sumptuous breakfast in the morning. The beds were very comfortable for a great sleep after a full day of walking! We used their service of dry-cleaning and found it excellent. The room had lots of space for your clothes. The staff were extremely helpful with all our questions and offered to arrange our tours. We would definitely return to this most hospitable hotel.
