The Excelsior interprets the concept of a typically Bavarian hotel not in a rustic or rural way, but in an elegant, urban, and tradition-conscious manner. It combines country house style, genuine hospitality, regional cuisine, and personalized service – all at a level perfectly suited to an international city like Munich.
1. Bavarian country house style in an urban setting
A key feature is the traditional country house style, characterized by warm colors, high-quality wood elements, and partly antique furnishings. This design deliberately conveys “a piece of Bavaria,” even in the heart of the city.
It reflects one of the most important Bavarian design traditions: coziness, natural materials, and artisanal craftsmanship.
2. Blend of tradition and modernity
The hotel combines classic Bavarian charm with contemporary comfort. Modern amenities meet traditional design elements – a hallmark of high-quality Bavarian hotels that preserve their roots while meeting international expectations.
3. Bavarian hospitality & personalized service
A defining element is the genuine hospitality: personal, attentive, and individual.
The concierge service (including membership in Les Clefs d’Or) exemplifies the high standard of care and local expertise.
This reflects the true Bavarian understanding of hosting culture.
4. Culinary enjoyment with regional roots
With its adjoining vinotheque and a high-quality breakfast featuring regional products (e.g., from Munich bakeries), the hotel emphasizes its culinary offering – another key aspect of Bavarian culture, where food and drink play a central role.
5. Central location with strong regional identity
Even though it is not an Alpine hotel, the regional connection remains clear:
Located in the heart of Munich, near Karlsplatz and the Old Town, the hotel combines an urban experience with Bavarian culture and history.
