Our family including two teenagers stayed here in January. We booked two rooms that were clean, fairly small & great value. It is definitely the charming & helpful staff led by Sebastian that makes this hotel stand out. The atmosphere was most welcoming. There were a couple of other families staying & there was room in the foyer to play cards. As others have mentioned the hotel is not central although a short (10 minute) public transport ride into the historic centre & a 10 minute, easy drive in our hire car from the central train station. Car parks are free & right next to the hotel. Sebastian has all the public transport tickets (day tickets etc) so rather than struggle at the vending machine on arrival - working out what is best for your party/length of stay/planned trips, you may want to just leave that until you get to the hotel. Sebastian kindly made us a couple of life saving expressos after a long day (& stored our luggage) just before we left to wrestle our way through rain & dark on the autobahn. His family also kindly did a bag of washing on that same day, even though we had actually technically checked out. It is these small kindnesses that are remembered & make travelling so much easier.

We stayed at the Laimer Hof just before Christmas and it was a wonderful beginning to our trip through Munich, Prague and Vienna! Sebastian and Alexandra were gracious hosts, assisting us with everything from city transportation passes, checking on restaurant times and train schedules, and advice on gift ideas :) Their entire staff made us feel at home and assisted us with our many questions. Really enjoyed being out of the city center :) Since my daughter had just finished study abroad, she had a huge duffle bag with her. We were not looking forward to traveling with that ! Sebastian kindly stored it for us, even meeting us at the hotel when it was still closed for their family vacation over Christmas, to let us pick it up when we returned. He and his staff truly treat you like family! We plan to stay there again if we are ever so lucky to travel in Europe again!!!

After reading the reviews I had to stay here. It is a gorgeous small hotel with the most lovely husband and wife owners who will do anything to help you. It is located very close to the tram into the city centre and the s bahn which takes you everywhere. It is 5 minutes from the beautiful nymphenburg palace. It is not in the city centre and is in a suburb about 15 minutes out of the centre. Breakfast is €8 an is lovely and all you need. Plus there is an amazing French restaurant at the end of the street. The room is lovely with all the amenities you need and great wifi. I would definitely come
Back!!

My wife and I spent three nights in Laimer Hof Hotel, Munich, and I have to say that it sort of changed my idea of searching for accomodation in the future. As a young traveller I used to get mesmerized by looks and surroundings. Now as I got more experienced I first search for the quality of services provided.

This is where the staff from Laimer Hof Hotel totally met my expectations. Long story short, choosing them guaranteed us a very comfortable stay. Everybody was keen to help us getting around Munich and to make sure that we're ok while inhouse. Friendliest people ever. Maybe a bit too friendly for someone on a holiday, looking for relaxation. For example on the first night we were eager to get out and breathe some fresh air and the host, Sebastian, kept on talking about sights and surroundings for 15 minutes. Despite I was telling him that we only want to stroll a lot and have a relaxing stay... We're not into churches and beer gardens.

There where some other inconveniences too during our stay. The room was incredibly small and looked old. Of course, I wasn't expecting luxury classic furniture. Yet I never thought I would ever hang my shirts on a awkward looking closet, with a roof top that lets you think a mouse should pop out any minute and say "Gutten Tag".

Also, don't expect for a Pantagruelic breakfast. Some poor selection of cheese, salami, eggs, butter, packed croissants (not fresh ones), jams, milk and cereals. Good coffee, though.

Getting to and around the place is very easy, and it's a definite plus. 1 hour from the airport, with S1 and S8 + 2 bus stations. 20 mins for reaching city center. 5 minutes walk + 15 mins with 16/17 tram.

Overall, I feel very sorry that I couldn't write a more positive review. The place is a bit overrated (but then again, maybe for some other people the things I listed aren't that important), yet the staff's behavior totally pays off the money.

Employees all over the world could really learn something about what trying to please the costumer means. As a tourist I prefer being bugged by somebody who wants to be helpful rather than being ignored.
