About
Superior Hotel Praesident
Superior Hotel Praesident sits on Schwanthalerstrasse, about a 5-minute walk from Munich’s central station and roughly 15 minutes on foot from Marienplatz. The area is busy with hotels and budget eateries, and the city centre is reachable without public transport.
The hotel keeps things simple: soundproofed rooms, free Wi-Fi, a bar-lounge, and a breakfast spread that guests frequently describe as very good for the class. Staff are the standout, with an 8.8 rating and recurring mentions of personal help, from finding lost items to printing return tickets.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Staff go out of their way for guests — Rating 8.8, the highest category. Reviews mention help finding a lost necklace, printing return tickets, and solving problems on the spot.
- Breakfast is a consistent highlight — Guests repeatedly describe it as very good with a big choice, including hot options like pancakes and eggs. Several chose the hotel partly for the free breakfast.
- Unbeatable proximity to the station — About a 5-minute walk to Munich central station, and roughly 15 minutes on foot to Marienplatz. Ideal for airport connections and day trips.
- Clean, quiet rooms in a chaotic area — Soundproofed rooms and courtyard-facing options keep noise down. Guests note the hotel is clean and tidy despite the busy station district.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- The station area isn’t the prettiest — Guests describe the surrounding streets as typical of station districts, with a mix of budget eateries and occasional street activity. It’s not dangerous, but it’s not charming.
- Rooms facing the street can be noisy — A reviewer specifically noted that rooms with street-facing windows may get noise, though their courtyard room was quiet.
- Value rating is the weakest point — At 7.6, value for money is the lowest category. A few guests mention the price-quality ratio is good, but it’s not exceptional for the class.
- Limited on-site facilities — No restaurant beyond a bar-lounge and snack bar. Meeting rooms are available but basic. Some guests may need to step out for fuller meals.

8Verified guest“Great Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception and a comfy lounge. The staff once helped me track down a lost necklace on my first visit. Highly recommend.”
8Verified guest“Breakfast had a bit of everything and was very good. Friendly staff printed our return tickets and sorted any problems. Arun, the night clerk, was nice and friendly. Location is ideal – no more than a 10-minute walk to the main square and 5 minutes to the central station, which connects to the airport and excursions. The area isn't the best – typical of station districts – but we had no issues.”
8Verified guest“Booked on the go, needed a triple near the station. Welcomed warmly with a bottle of water. Room was large and warm – Munich was cold that day. Breakfasts tasty with a big choice. There's a nice pub, Schiller Braeu, nearby – good beer, moderate prices, though busy on Friday night; we found a table in 5 minutes. Only had one night; would love to return to both the city and this hotel.”
8Verified guest“This is Munich's station hotel district. We chose it for the free breakfast, which was very good for 3 stars – apple pie and red fish included. Otherwise straightforward – clean, tidy, small. Plenty of restaurants nearby, mostly oriental, but a nice beer hall with good beer around the block. Chain stores close by, and the city centre is walkable.”
8Verified guest“10 minutes from the station. Despite reviews mentioning homeless people and migrants, we didn't see many. Calmer and cleaner than neighbouring streets. Marienplatz took exactly 15 minutes at a leisurely pace. Breakfast good, everything needed. Staff friendly. Good price-quality ratio. Our second-floor room faced the courtyard, so it was quiet – there were comments about street noise, but November evenings were not crowded.”
8Verified guest“Good location close to the railway station.”
