Expert reviews
“The 72-room Louis Hotel offers a Japanese-themed restaurant and a bird’s-eye view of the Viktualienmarkt.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Munich.
“No other hotel in Munich manages to combine the subdued elegance of a design hotel, first-rate service, and perhaps the best Old Town location, overlooking Viktualienmarkt, as this hotel.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Munich.
“This chic Altstadt hideaway is the only hotel in Munich that has rooms overlooking the lively Viktualienmarkt. But despite this marquee location it truly is a hideaway, because the hotel entrance is so unobtrusive that you pass right by and never know it’s there.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Munich.
“The Louis Hotel has made a big impression since opening in 2009 – it’s location at Munich’s Viktualienmarkt alone saw to that. Very much a design hotel, its high-class rooms, bars, rooftop terrace and excellent Japanese restaurant ensure its continuing popularity for a high-end stay.”

Best Hotel in Munich
I liked everything about this property.. I felt like home.. Mr Erdem, the front office manager has ensured that my expectations were met precisely. We had two interconnected rooms overlooking the market. The rooms are spacious and very well appointed. There is a minibar included in the room rate. High quality coffee and tea making facilities. The location couldn’t be better. Breakfast is lovely. Everyone working in this property is friendly and courteous.

Beautiful, small hotel in perfect location
The location between Marienplatz and Viktualienmarkt couldn't be better. Wonderful room overviewing the market. Very quiet and yet central to most sights. The staff is friendly and helpful and they rent bikes, which we loved.

Wonderful place, it gets better each time.
It is great to just walk to the Christmas markets right outside the hotel. The Frauenkirche is also within easy walking distance. The room temperature was easy to control. The room was quiet. Second time staying here this year, great pleace.
There are two entrances to the hotel, and it is confusing to figure out which one to use. It would be nice if you had a specific address for both entrances, so that you head for the closest one when walking in from the cold snow and wind. I got lost twice and went round and round. Maybe have Google Maps indicate both entrances?

Beautiful and well designed luxury accomodation
Well designed and beautiful accomodation with views over the lovely markets below. We loved our stay here. It was so close to the Christmas markets and yet was very quiet. The restaurant was amazing - we enjoyed breakfast there every morning.

great hotel ... for many years...
as i'm a regular in Louis hotel, we've got room upgrade to my favourite one, with the small balcony overlooking the market. it's fantastic: spacious with all the nice amenities.... and everything of a top quality in materials and design. generally, Louis hotel is my favourite place to stay in Munich for many years (once in a while i'm staying in other places to make sure nothing gets better, but so far Louis Hotel is the best. it's not overly designed, not too poshy, or pretentious, it has everything you expect from a truly luxurious place - but everything to a proper extent. Quality, Taste and Modesty - key features of this place. the only pity is the old restaurant which is no longer in this place - despite many years it has been replaced, i'm still missing it.
the weather could be better )))

Beautiful hotel, great location, terrrific staff.
Our room had a great view of the old city. It was close to everything, yet quiet.
Like many hotel rooms, there weren't quite enough places to put our things on.

Great getaway spot i the heart of Munich
Very comfortable room with great view. Very welcoming and helpful staff.
The climate control system could not cool, but we managed by opening windows. All internet connections were down in the morning.

Home away from home!
From check-in to check-out everything was great. The whole team made me feel like I was home. Thank you for a wonderful stay and cannot wait to be back next year!
You could put toiletries in the bathrooms.

Beautiful property that needs better housekeeping service
Beautiful property in the city center.  Room was a large, sweet with windows overlooking the plaza.  Big room gorgeous.
The room was never cleaned when I was there for four days after I requested  I found a hair from the previous guest in my tub.  Some of the guest pushed me trying to get on the elevator and were extremely rude.  Luckily, one of the chefs saw me and took me up the elevator to take me to my room, which was very nice.  Went to the rooftop to have dinner which I thought they were supposed to reserve for hotel guest.  They turned me away which is fine but had to go back to room.  They did call after 30 minutes but at that time it was late.

A happy stay marred by small things which are easily remedied.
The location, the spotless cleanliness of the rooms.
The plumbing could be much better. The shower head would not slide on the rail. Since it had been fixed at a low height I had to crouch under it. The single lever controller of water flow and temperature was quite sticky. Hence difficult to control. The hotel management needs to service the plumbing more often to ensure effortless movement.

Fabulous
Perfect location for exploring Munich. Room was very clean, comfortable and quiet. Staff very helpful and friendly.
Would have preferred a buffet breakfast every day, not just at the weekend. Room needs more and easier to use storage - there were no drawers and a small, half length wardrobe.

Gorgeous design on the Markt
Amazing location right on Viktualienmarkt! Gorgeous interior design; very Scandinavian or Japanese minimalist rather than classic Bavarian. Nice breakfast. Lovely staff and service. Super comfortable bed and French balcony door for fresh air. Nice nespresso machine in the room.
Seemed overpriced for the actual amenities offered: no fitness or sauna, for example. Breakfast was nice but not the best hotel frühstück choice I’ve ever had. The water pressure in the shower was quite weak and it was difficult to figure out how to switch from shower to bathtub. The mini bar was complimentary, but there was no alcohol in it.
