The hotel stands on Promenadeplatz in the historic center, and its restaurants and cultural venues are part of Munich's public life.

Different wings and interior styles give the accommodation variety, while the Blue Spa occupies the upper levels above the old town.

Room choice here involves both layout and design. Standard Junior Suites measure 45 square meters, with a king or twin beds, an integrated sitting area, a writing desk, and a natural-stone bathroom. Axel Vervoordt's seventh-floor Deluxe Junior Suites range from 45 to 55 square meters. Linen upholstery, reclaimed wood, and earthy colors define these rooms; their Valverde-stone bathrooms have a bathtub and separate rain shower.
The 85-square-meter Bavarian Suite takes a different direction. A wood-paneled salon overlooks Promenadeplatz, and the separate bedroom has a canopy bed. Its marble bathroom includes a Philippe Starck bathtub. On request, adjoining rooms can extend the arrangement to two or three bedrooms, making this a concrete option for a larger family. The broader collection includes Panorama suites and suite ensembles in the historic Palais Montgelas. Babysitting and laundry services can also be arranged.
Atelier holds two Michelin stars and is led by chef Kevin Romes. Its cooking follows seasonal ingredients, with carefully composed menus and a restrained presentation. The dining room, designed by Axel Vervoordt, has the intimate scale and spare furnishings of an artist's studio. A movable wall by artist Dirk Vander Eecken conceals a private dining area, and the small Silent Garden terrace sits among maple trees.
Dinner follows a set-menu format rather than an à la carte selection. A vegetarian menu can be prepared by prior request. The combination of a compact dining room and a menu-led meal gives Atelier a particular place within the hotel's much wider restaurant collection.
Garden centers on brasserie classics and contemporary dishes, with seasonal vegetables and fresh herbs. Its winter garden is another Vervoordt interior, with industrial accents, an adjoining terrace, and a fireplace separating the restaurant from the Garden Salon. Lunch and dinner are served here. The conservatory brings daylight into the meal, while the summer terrace takes tables outdoors. This is also a setting for business lunches, with the same menu identity carrying through the day.
Palais Keller brings Bavarian character beneath a historic vaulted ceiling. The stone chamber dates to 1443 and was once a salt storehouse. Regional produce shapes its contemporary Bavarian cooking, and the open kitchen lets diners see dishes being prepared. The vault remains the defining feature of the room, with Vervoordt's interiors working around the old masonry. Its substantial walls and low arches make the restaurant feel closely connected to the building's earlier life.
Trader Vic's follows its own long-established Polynesian theme. A beech-wood oven is central to the cooking, while the winding dining rooms contain carvings from Tahiti and Hawaii, shells, and handmade Fijian tikis. The adjoining Menehune and Trader Vic's bars serve South Pacific-style cocktails. The bar setting continues the dining rooms' carved-wood details and South Seas decor.
The Roof Garden is the hotel's breakfast setting, with a buffet and freshly prepared dishes. Jouin Manku's design opens the room toward Munich's skyline, and the lounge has a fireplace and terrace. Breakfast is served to hotel residents as well as outside visitors, so the room forms part of the hotel's connection to the city beyond overnight stays.
The Blue Spa Lounge and Winter Garden has a separate role, serving lighter meals and drinks. Andrée Putman's glass-enclosed room frames views over the rooftops around an open fireplace. In summer, drinks extend onto the Blue Spa terrace. The enclosed winter garden preserves the elevated setting when an outdoor table is less appealing.
Designed by Andrée Putman, the Blue Spa covers 1,300 square meters across four levels. Its pool measures 6.5 by 14.5 meters and has a sliding glass roof, which opens in suitable weather. A fireplace beside the pool and a sun terrace give this rooftop space a character that changes with Munich's weather. The spa welcomes hotel guests and day visitors, with reception on the seventh floor.
Facilities include a mixed Finnish sauna, a bio-sauna in the women's area, an aroma steam bath, a plunge pool, and a separate relaxation room. Massages are available by appointment, and there is a fitness studio. A beauty center and hairdresser operate within the hotel as well.
Falk's Bar occupies the hall of mirrors, a room dating to 1839 that survived the Second World War intact. Ornate stucco overhead contrasts with colored lighting at the bar. Cocktails include familiar classics and the bar team's own recipes, with small dishes from Garden. The cinema is adjacent, making the bar a natural meeting point before a screening without leaving the building.
The astor@Cinema Lounge has 38 seats arranged on lounge sofas. It screens films using digital picture and sound equipment, including support for 3D presentations. Tickets are available through the hotel shop or online, and the room can also be booked for private screenings. The sofa layout keeps the screening intimate, whether attending the public program or arranging a private event.
The Komödie im Bayerischen Hof is a 560-seat theater with a program of comedy and drama. The Night Club adds jazz and blues concerts, with party bands on selected evenings, while the associated Piano Bar provides another setting for live music. These venues run their own programs. Alongside the hotel's screening room, they make performance an established part of the address, with audiences arriving specifically for the evening's entertainment.
For meetings and celebrations, the hotel has 40 function rooms. The Art Deco ballroom ensemble includes a sliding glass roof, while Palais Montgelas contains classical salons such as the Königssaal. A shopping and art passage runs through the property, and practical services include a business center and 24-hour room service. The range of spaces allows public entertainment, private gatherings, and everyday hotel life to coexist under one roof.
The Frauenkirche and Bavarian State Opera are a short walk from the hotel, with the Residenz and Hofgarten also within the old-town area. For public transport, Marienplatz serves the S-Bahn, while Marienplatz and Odeonsplatz are nearby U-Bahn options. The nearest tram stop is Theatinerstraße. Munich's main railway station is about one kilometer away; the hotel lists Munich Airport at approximately 35 kilometers. Road travel depends on traffic. Underground parking and limousine services are available, and the hotel entrance is at Promenadeplatz 2–6.
We value the hotel's layered history: Palais Montgelas brings classical architecture into a city-center stay, giving the property character beyond its scale.
The Blue Spa gives a central Munich stay an unusual rooftop pause, with a pool beneath a glass roof that opens in good weather.
falk's Bar occupies the hotel's historic hall of mirrors; its surviving stucco setting makes an evening drink feel rooted in the building's past.
