 | Hotel Kurpfalz: A relatively inexpensive and good place to stay.

The hotel is tucked in a side street along the main road (Landsberger Straße) leading to the city centre. It is relatively quiet, and very clean and comfortable. The toilet and bath is sufficient and clean, hot water with head & body shampoo is provided. In the room I stayed, there is a small desk and a chair, a big wardrobe, a double bed, telephone, bed light, and a TV (the only English channel is a movie channel that screens about 4 new releases). The floor is tiled and not carpeted, so it could be cold during winter and autumn. Heating is via a radiator. One thing I appreciate a lot is the free wireless internet access available in the room (with a password provided at the reception). The staff is skeletal but friendly and efficient.
There are several convenient stores within walking distance. This includes a bakery and meal places. Out on the main road which is Landsberger Straße, the Augustiner Brewery is 5 minutes walk away, at the side of the this brewery is a very good dining hall or bierhalle (that says it all), serving very good German and also Bavarian fare, with all sorts of Augustiner Beer, of course.
It is easy to connect to the airport from this place. It is a 15-minute casual walk (dragging your wheeled luggage) to the Hackerbrucke station where the S-bahn S1 or S8 will bring you to and fro the airport, at the cost of 9.20 euro, single trip (April 2009).
And walking 2 minutes to the main road, Landsberger Straße, is a tram strop with line 18 and 19, bringing you to the city centre, just to the side of Marienplatz, the central tourist attraction of Munich.
I paid 45 euro for one Saturday night. Breakfast was extra, but one could always go to a nearby bakery for something in the morning. I was quite happy with it.
Free wireless internet access is not available in every hotel in Munich, so I am very pleased with this service. The hotel is not new, but it is still very clean and the bed is very comfortable.
