"It’s a bit like a microcosm of Munich itself, the Sofitel Munich Bayerpost: at first glance conservative, traditional as can be, but upon closer inspection surprisingly modern, even hip." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Just a three-minute walk from the central train station, the Sofitel Munich Bayerpost hotel is housed in a 19th-century building that previously served as the city’s main post office." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This five-star hotel has been created behind the historic façade of a former postal building: an elegant setting for banquets and conferences, accommodating up to 750 participants."
Star Service "The hotel brags that every corner is a "masterpiece of contemporary design." And with its multilevel lobby enthralled in a very Prince-like purple light, this attitude is clear from the moment you walk in." Full review
Afar Magazine "Housed in a former Bavarian Royal Post Office building, the swank Sofitel Munich Bayerpost oozes upscale class from its neoclassical facade right through to its contemporary interior." Full review
Gayot "Gazing up at the Italian Renaissance facade of the former Royal Bavarian Post Office, guests to this hotel can imagine they're in another era."

The Oktoberfest’s Theresienwiese station is one U-Bahn stop away – to avoid the proverbial sardine-like trains and platforms, it’s a much more pleasant 10-minute walk.

Ask for a room facing the courtyard.
Rough Guide "Elegant, long-established, family-run four-star hotel right next to the Isartor."
Star Service "Cleanliness and economy are what lie at the heart of this modest midrange Bavarian hotel for business and leisure travelers." Full review

Many of the rooms sport showers only, so request a tub if that is your preference.
Fodor's "The welcoming Torbräu has been looking after guests in one form or another since 1490, making it the oldest hotel in Munich, and it has been run by the same family for more than a century." Full review
