The mid-range Holiday Inn Munich - Leuchtenbergring, located in a post-industrial neighborhood down the street from the Leuchtenbergring S-Bahn station, has a plain facade but a colorful and playful lobby and rooms with splashes of yellow and red. It's a 15-minute train ride to the city center, and the airport is a half an hour away with no transfers necessary. The neighborhood is isolated, and apart from a nearby supermarket, there are no shops or restaurants in the vicinity, but the hotel has a bar and restaurant. Some might find the walk from the train a bit desolate at night.
Scene
Six-story glass building with a contemporary industrial chic interior
Fun graphic design pervades the common areas here: A back-lit bar adjacent to the lobby is flanked by bright red leather-embracing easy chairs and tables frosted with the hotel’s name. A similarly cheery restaurant has low-hanging red-lantern lighting and floor-to-ceiling windows looking out onto a patio courtyard. Black-and-white framed photography is hung throughout. The hotel is popular with tourists, as well as with business travelers because of the proximity to a number of large offices in the area.
Location
Down the street from the Leuchtenbergring stop on the S-Bahn near a highway and office parks
The property, surrounded by office parks, office buildings, and the occasional residential building, is situated in a combination post-industrial and suburban area, and abuts a major road. The location is somewhat isolated and does not have a lot of street life, although there is a supermarket within walking distance. The hotel is down the street from the Leuchtenbergring S-Bahn station, which provides an easy connection to the city center and the airport.
Rooms
Modern rooms with dashes of color
The rooms are basic in an industrial chic way, cheery with black walls and black carpets accented by bright primary colors on the headboards, couches, and curtains, giving them a graphic, modern aesthetic. The occasional black-and-white photograph or colorful oil painting hangs on the wall next to a small LCD flat-screen TV. All rooms have coffee- and tea-making facilities, flat-screen TVs, plenty of outlets, temperature control, and minibars. Bathrooms, which are trimmed with playful red tiles, have heated floors, hairdryers, free toiletries, wall-mounted make-up mirrors, and walk-in showers.
