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.”

Lovely hotel in a fantastic setting, perfect base for a really good weekend. Not the cheapest but decent value given the
A1 location, spacious well appointed comfortable room and bathroom, good coffee machine, great views over square - nothing not to like. They even re-stock your minibar with beer, for free. Staff were great.
Nothing major. Room keycard needed to operate lift but the reader repeatedly didn’t work. Bar closed one night at about midnight when we wanted a drink - saved us a hangover at least

A wonderful place in the heart of Munich that offers a complete escape from the tourist crowds. The rooms feature sophisticated interiors, and the rooftop terrace is an unforgettable experience.👌

Very good
Location. Comfortable bed. Tasty drinks in the minibar. Excellent coffee in the room.
The toiletries in the shower didn't work, we had to get the bottles out of the wall holders. The shower curtain fell off. The lifts were old and slow. Breakfast starts only at 7am, we paid for it but didn't get it as had to leave at 7am to catch our flight.

The absolute perfect spot for 5 days in Munich
The Louis Hotel exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect, right next to the Viktualienmarkt. The room was spacious and beautiful. We were facing the interior courtyard, so no issues with noise at night. The staff was helpful when we had questions and gave us an early check in, free of charge, which was priceless to us after a long morning of travel. Overall price was a little high, but we were also there during the 2024 EUFA cup, so all prices were high. However, after our stay, and taking into consideration room, location, service, etc, I think.
The cost and style of breakfast - we only had breakfast at the hotel 1 morning, and the cost was steep ($35/pp). You could order as much as you wanted from the menu. However, I think I would've rather paid a la cart, at a lower cost, since I definitely did not eat $35 worth of food. Otherwise, this hotel was perfect for our stay.

Hotel was just perfect for our one night away without children. We got a very friendly, warm welcome at reception and we were given an upgrade to a Courtyard Deluxe which was beautiful. Fun details like the bathroom having a window into the bedroom, the chrome coffee machine and the free mini bar were a bonus. Roof Terrace bar was lovely, we had a quiet drink up there and then came back later for dinner where the staff were really attentive. Dinner and breakfast were exceptional. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Munich.

Great location, amazing room! Felt like a decor magazine.
Amazing room, feels like a decor magazine. Details, charm, everything gorgeous, and right in the center of the city.
The picture of the room shows a sight that is not from the room. You cannot see the tower it shows unless you lean almost outside the balcony, that opens to an inner court.

Although everyone was exceptionally friendly, some of the front staff could be better trained.

Perfect location and a superb staff who works overtime to satisfy their guests.
The location was truly phenomenal. It couldn't have been better. Yurii, who works at reception, was the shining star who took my initial concerns and went far beyond the call of duty to rectify them. He literally made my stay in Munich a wonderful memory. Thank you! Breakfast is excellent as is the service. George, the chef at the rooftop restaurant/bar, provided me with the most exceptional chicken I've had in decades. Kudos to him!
The only area for improvement would be to have larger TVs and access to more than one English channel (a common issue when travelling throughout Europe.

Would stay here again
Confortable quiet room. Best location. Great mini bar restocked every day. Delicious food and wine in the restaurant.
Breakfast price - there’s lots of competition in the area hence surprising that breakfast is €35

Class and refinement in the heart of the city
This property exudes class and refinement. The staff are professional but friendly. Most of all the rooms are wonderful and tastefully furnished. The bed was super comfy, there was a large seating area and small balcony overlooking a courtyard. Best of all there was a window into the bathroom which had a large soaking tub, robes, and nice amenities. Just overall the whole ambience and layout was wonderful and if you can afford to stay here, definitely try it. Finally, it seems this is a happening place as there were a ton of people in the cocktail lounge and the restaurant has amazing views over the market.
It is a little hard to find as the entry is located down an alley, but it's well signed on both entries (one from the main street not far from Marienplatz and the other right off the Viktualienmarkt).

I highly recommend the rooms overlooking the Market!
the room overlooking the market was BEAUTIFUL, the bedding, view and design was exceptional. The location made Munich very walkable for us.
I would have preferred our rooms be ready sooner and I didn't love breakfast (it wasn't included and I thought the a la cart was very overpriced).

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.

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.

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?

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 )))

Its a nice hotel. Felt at home. Room is comfortable and cozy. Will come back to stay!
The hotel was so close to Marienplatz and the market and bakeries!! Lobe the accessibility to the train station too.
Expensive breakfast but great service Just go to the market for more choices.
