Hotels with a Bar Near Munich Central Station
Arriving at München Hauptbahnhof late in the evening often means you want a drink and a quiet seat more than a night out. Our listing counts 18 hotels around Munich Central Station with a bar on site, from the piano bar of Maritim Hotel München to the wine bar of Hotel Excelsior Munich near Karlsplatz. Several of them score 9 out of 10 from guests, and most are a short walk from the platforms, so you can step off a train, check in and settle at the bar without crossing the city in search of a table.
Munich keeps a strong Bavarian identity alongside its role as a business and rail hub, and the area around the Hauptbahnhof shows both sides. A few minutes away, Karlsplatz opens onto the pedestrian streets that lead to Marienplatz, while the Theresienwiese, home of the Oktoberfest, is within walking distance to the south. Beer halls and beer gardens are part of daily life here, and a hotel bar near the station often feels like a quieter version of that tradition.
A Drink Steps from the Platforms
The streets around the Hauptbahnhof are busy at all hours, with traffic, trams and late arrivals from across Germany, Austria and Italy. A hotel bar gives you a calm place for a nightcap, an informal meeting or a light meal after a long rail journey. The hotels below range from lobby bars in business hotels to a beer garden serving Bavarian food and a piano bar beside a rooftop pool, and many combine the bar with a restaurant, a terrace or a garden, which is welcome in Munich's warmer months and long summer evenings.
The best-rated hotels here pair a strong guest score with a bar that has its own character. Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center, a short walk from the station and rated 9 out of 10, adds a beer garden serving Bavarian cuisine. Hotel Cocoon Hauptbahnhof, also rated 9, has alpine-inspired rooms, a trendy bar and a garden. Bayer 89 Vi Vadi Hotel combines a lobby bar with a trendy Italian restaurant, while Flemings Hotel München-City adds a spa area with a sauna. Any of these makes a relaxed first evening possible without leaving the building after a long train ride.
For travellers who want more than a single counter, a few hotels offer a fuller evening on site. Maritim Hotel München, near the station, has two restaurants, a piano bar and a rooftop pool, along with a fitness centre and parking. Hotel Excelsior Munich, a short walk from Karlsplatz, pairs a Bavarian restaurant with a wine bar and soundproof windows that keep the rooms quiet. KING's HOTEL First Class adds a lounge serving light bites and room service. These three suit a stay where the evening starts and ends at the hotel rather than in the old town.
Business travellers have solid options with lobby bars and work facilities. Hotel NH Collection München Bavaria, rated 8.8, offers a stylish bar, a terrace, a restaurant and a fitness centre. Courtyard by Marriott Munich City Center combines a Mediterranean restaurant and bar with business facilities and parking on site, and Eurostars Book Hotel, a polished 4-star near the station, adds a lobby bar, a restaurant and a fitness centre. Boutique Hotel Atrium München brings a bar, a garden terrace and a business centre. All of them keep an after-work drink within a lift ride of your room.
Simpler hotels with a bar are also part of this list, and they suit travellers who want breakfast included and a quiet drink before bed. AWA Hotel GmbH offers a casual bar, complimentary breakfast and parking, and Brunnenhof City Center Hotel has a simple bar, a garden and breakfast included, a short public transport ride from the station. Leonardo Hotel München City Center pairs a bar with a terrace and parking. These options are relaxed rather than polished, which is often exactly what you need between two trains, especially when you arrive late and leave early the next morning.
A traveler's perspectiveIf I were arriving in Munich by train in the evening, I would choose a hotel within a short walk of the station with a bar that serves food. My shortlist would be Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center for its beer garden, Hotel Cocoon Hauptbahnhof for its relaxed alpine style, and Hotel Excelsior Munich for its wine bar and quiet rooms. I recommend checking bar opening hours if you arrive very late, since they vary from one hotel to another and the descriptions do not give them.

- 3Choose Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center if you want Bavarian food with your drink, since its beer garden serves regional cuisine.
- 4Ask for a room facing the courtyard in hotels on busy streets, or choose Hotel Excelsior Munich, which mentions soundproof windows.
