Hotels with a Restaurant Near Munich Central Station
München Hauptbahnhof is the main gateway into Munich, with ICE trains from Berlin, Vienna and Zurich, regional lines into the Bavarian Alps and the S1 and S8 S-Bahn lines to the airport. Karlsplatz, known locally as Stachus, lies a few minutes east, and the Theresienwiese, home of the Oktoberfest, is a short walk south. The hotels in this selection all keep a restaurant on site, from Maritim Hotel München with two restaurants and a rooftop pool to Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center and its Bavarian beer garden. I looked at which kitchen suits which kind of stay near the station.
The area around Munich Central Station is the working side of the city center: hotels and offices along Bayerstrasse, the Augustiner brewery tradition a little west on Landsberger Strasse, and Karlsplatz opening onto the pedestrian Neuhauser Strasse that leads to Marienplatz. The Theresienwiese lies to the south, quiet most of the year and crowded during Oktoberfest, and the Messe trade fairs bring business travelers through the station all year round.
Bavarian tables a short walk from Hauptbahnhof
Arriving at Munich Central Station often means a late ICE or an early S-Bahn to the airport, and the blocks around Bayerstrasse and Schillerstrasse are practical rather than charming after dark. A hotel restaurant lets you eat well without walking through the station district, and several here serve Bavarian food, so a first or last evening in the city still tastes of Munich. For trade fair weeks and Oktoberfest, when tables fill quickly, dining under your own roof is a real advantage.
For Bavarian cooking without leaving the hotel, two addresses stand out. Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center, rated 9 by more than 2,500 guests, is a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof and runs a restaurant and a beer garden serving Bavarian dishes. Hotel Excelsior Munich, also rated 9, sits a short walk from Karlsplatz and pairs a Bavarian restaurant with a wine bar, while its soundproof windows help on the station side of the old town. I recommend either one for travelers who want their first evening in Munich to feel local without taking a tram.
If you prefer an international menu, the choice widens. Bayer 89 Vi Vadi Hotel, rated 9, has a trendy Italian restaurant and a lobby bar near the station, and Courtyard by Marriott Munich City Center serves Mediterranean food with a bar, a fitness center and business facilities. Hotel NH Collection München Bavaria, rated 8.8, offers a restaurant, a stylish bar and a terrace, and it is described as pet friendly, family friendly and ready for business stays. My advice is to choose among these when a group has different tastes or when you need a working dinner after a day at a trade fair.
Maritim Hotel München is the most reviewed hotel in this list, with close to three thousand opinions and a score of 8. It is the one to pick if you want more than one dining room: it has two restaurants and a piano bar, plus a rooftop pool and a fitness center, which makes a longer stay near the station easier. KING's HOTEL First Class, rated 8.8, takes a more traditional approach, with a restaurant, a bar, a lounge serving light bites and room service, a useful option when a late train leaves you too tired to go out.
Smaller hotels also keep a kitchen close to the platforms. Flemings Hotel München-City, rated 9, combines a restaurant and a bar with a spa area that includes a sauna, a good way to recover after a long rail journey from Berlin or Vienna. Boutique Hotel Atrium München, rated 8.6, adds a garden terrace to its restaurant and bar, and Eurostars Book Hotel, rated 8.4, has a restaurant and a lobby bar for business, family or leisure stays. I would choose one of these for a calmer base that still lets you walk to Karlsplatz and the pedestrian streets toward Marienplatz.
A traveler's perspectiveFor one night before an early S-Bahn to the airport, I would book Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center: it is a short walk from the Hauptbahnhof, guests rate it 9, and its beer garden serves Bavarian food. For a longer stay with more choice, I would pick Maritim Hotel München, with two restaurants, a piano bar and a rooftop pool near the station.

Local tips
- 1During Oktoberfest and the large Messe trade fairs, book a table at your hotel restaurant as soon as you arrive, since city restaurants fill early.
- 2The S1 and S8 S-Bahn lines run from the Hauptbahnhof to Munich Airport; check breakfast hours if you have an early flight.
- 3For a walk after dinner, follow Neuhauser Strasse from Karlsplatz to Marienplatz; it is pedestrian and takes you through the old town.
- 4If you want Bavarian food in the hotel, Mercure Hotel Muenchen City Center and Hotel Excelsior Munich both serve it on site.
- 5Light sleepers should ask for a room away from the tracks; Hotel Excelsior Munich mentions soundproof windows.
- 6Travelers with pets will find that most hotels in this list, including Maritim Hotel München and Flemings Hotel München-City, accept them.
