Luxury
Bayerischer Hof
This prestigious residence houses a legendary institution on Munich's hotel scene. Privately owned and run by one family for over 100 years, Bayerischer Hof welcomes an upscale international clientele. The industrialist Ernst von Siemens apparently rented one of the luxurious suites here for most of his life. The grand hotel boasts classical halls and foyers, a swimming pool on the top-floor terrace, designer shops, a theatre and a jazz nightclub all under one roof. Its opulent rooms vary in decorative style - some are very romantic and English, designed by Laura Ashley, others feature a south European country house theme or a French 19th-century palace ambience. Located in the heart of Munich, the hotel hosts many prominent functions and award parties for Germany's high society with conference and events rooms able to seat up to 2,500. Nevertheless, special rates on rooms or wining and dining in its various restaurants and bars are regularly offered.

Olympic
This is where spoilt journalists and actors love to stay - partly because of its beautiful and trendy location and partly because of the combination of English colonial style and traditional Bavarian architecture of this rather unusual hotel. Its 32 rooms are tastefully furnished and follow a unique design scheme throughout. Definitely a hotspot to be seen at but still kept a secret from all but the in-crowd.
