Munich is compact, orderly and easy to get around, which means the usual advice about staying central matters less than the calendar does. The S-Bahn and U-Bahn run late and reach everywhere, so a room three stops out is a real saving with no real cost. What does matter is the fair and festival schedule, which can triple rates overnight.
Per night for two adults, taxes and fees included where the property reports them. Based on the 345 bookable properties we found for a two-night midweek stay a month ahead.
