The Super 8 Munich West (by Wyndham) is one of two Super 8 hotels in Munich. The hotel is not located in the inner city, but has  a very good connection to the city centre as well as to Munich International airport, as the urban rail station is around the corner. The hotel has double rooms, a rather small lounge with a coffeshop and a quite huge breakfast room. The Super 8 is located in Munich’s west, a mostly residential district. It’s clear this hotel is made for business travellers and travellers on a budget.

There are only double rooms available, which can be also used for single occupancy. The hotel is mid sized compared to the number of rooms. All rooms feature en suite baths with a shower, a hairdryer, and bath amenities (bulk).

The Super 8 Munich West Hotel doesn’t feature a full restaurant, but there is a small coffeeshop in the lobby, where you can order a beverage and a snack. Ideal for business travellers to meet after a day full of work and have a drink before going to bed.

  • Trivago: 8.3 out of 10.0 (Very Good)
  • Tripadvisor: 4.0 out of 5.0 (Very Good)
  • Hotelscombined: 7.8 out of 10.0 (Good)

What people like:

  • The close proximity to the urban rail station Laim (good connections to the city centre and Munich International Airport)
  • The breakfast
  • The cleanliness of the rooms and the good work of the housekeeping staff

What people dislike:

  • the loud and sometimes crowded breakfast room
  • visitors sometimes indicate that the reception staff is not always 100% polite and courteous
  • The lack of parking possibilities (on-street metered parking; too few parking spots available)

What to know:

  • The Super 8 Munich West doesn’t have a full restaurant. But you can order drinks and snacks at the lobby coffeeshop/bar.
  • The district around the hotel is a residential district so there are not as many possibilities to go out dining around the hotel as you would get at a more centrally located hotel.
  • Bar/coffeeshop
  • Restaurant
  • 24/7 reception
  • Free WiFi in rooms and lobby
  • Breakfast available (ca. 9 EUR / 10 USD per person and day)
  • Bath amenities
  • Iron/Board
  • In-room safe
  • Free coffee/tea
  • Air conditioning & heating
  • Cable/Satellite TV

Laim district:

Laim is located in the western part of the city and mainly a residential district. Additionally there are some industrial/commercial areas (mainly car garages, car dealers) along Landsberger Street. This street (also named Bundesstraße 2 – Federal Road No. 2) is a major road for commuters. So expect lot’s of rush hour traffic during weekdays.

Dining out:

restaurants and bars are available but limited. Most of the restaurants and bars can be found in Fürstenrieder Street.

The best options for dining out in walking distance to the Super 8 Munich West are a steakhouse (Asado), an Italian restaurant (Il Cortile), a Greek restaurant (Tou Bakali), and a Chinese restaurant (Hakeyo House).
Fast food options are also avilable. Within walking distance you will find Mc Donalds, Döner Kebab (Beste Döner) and a bit further a Subway.
Coffeshops: There is a coffeeshop (San Francisco Coffee Company – SFCC) ca. 350 metres / 380 yards from the hotel.

Supermarkets:

There are supermarkets within walking distance. You will find a REWE (normal supermarket) and an ALDI (discount supermarket) ca. 700 metres / 770 yards from the hotel near the commuter station.

Is the area safe?

Yes, the area and quarter around the Super 8 Munich West is generally a safe area. Yet its is not a prosperous quarter with wealthy inhabitants. Further uptown Landsberger Street (approx. 700 metres / 770 yards) there is a brothel and a nightclub/table dance club. This area might not be suitable for children and families during the nighttime.

The Super 8 Munich West (by Wyndham) is a good business/mid-range hotel. As it is located in Munich’s Laim district you can expect lower prices than for hotels in the inner city of Munich. Prices per double room start at ca. 55 USD per night in the low season and can reach approx. 150 USD in the high season. Of course there are some dates thoughout the year where Munich hotels are nearly fully booked (e.g. trade fairs). Prices can then rise to ca. 220 USD per room and night for the Super 8, too.

You can book directly via the official website:

Getting to the Super 8 Munich West is really easy. You can get there

  • By public transport
    The urban rail (S-Bahn) station “Laim” is literally just around the corner. From there you have direct connections to the Main Station and City Centre (Lines S1, S2, S4, S6, S7 and S8) and Munich International Airport (Lines S1 and S8)
  • By taxi/limousine service
    Choose your favourite transport service and the driver will bring you to the hotel.
  • By (rental) car
    The hotel is quite easy to reach. Be aware that the parking situation is quite bad. Only on-street-parking (metered), but often you won’t find any free space.

I had the opportunity to fully test a standard double room with breakfast. To see if I would recommend this hotel read my full review about the Super 8 Munich West (by Wyndham).

The Best time to visit Munich – May?

The best time to visit Munich - March?

When is the best time to visit Munich? Whenever you go to a destination abroad where you’ve never been before, you will ask yourself: When should I go there? Are there “good” or “bad” months? Of course every city looks far better on a nice sunny day than in heavy rain. There are only a few places in the world where it doesn’t matter when to go, as the weather conditions are always perfect. Unfortunately, Munich is not such a place. Also hotel prices vary throughout the seasons. Here I will tell you about the best months of the year when you should visit Munich, and of course when you should avoid visiting Munich. This time I will tell you about the things you can expect throughout March in Munich.

March in Munich

During March, every citizen of Munich awaits spring. But often winter won’t go and it still stays cold, especially during the night. Snow can still fall in the first weeks of March, but it won’t stay long. After Fasching (carnival) the Starkbierzeit (strong beer season) begins in Munich. This brings the first boost to tourism in Munich, as the different brewery festivals, known as “Starkbierfest” get more and more popular with tourists from abroad. But March can also be the first month of spring, depending on the weather conditions. When there is a dry period or days with a warm wind from the south (called „Föhn“), you may have luck to enjoy a drink in a beer garden. The temperatures then may rise up to 15°C/59°F.

My recommendation: March can be an ideal month for a trip to Munich, but only if the weather conditions are good. Keep an eye on the weather forecast, especially the daily temperature and be quite spontaneus booking a flight and a hotel in Munich.

National Holidays and festivities during March in Munich

Learn about the National Holidays during this month as well as other festivities you will encounter when travelling to Munich in March.

Weather in Munich - March

March is is still a cold month in Munich. You can still have snow in the first weeks. But there are more and more sunny days and, nature slowly (really slowly) beginns to spring. but expect percipitation and very cold temperatures around 5°C / 41° F. But there also can be warm days with temperatures up to 15°C / 59° F. This is usually the case when specific weather conditions like the “Föhn” appear. Föhn is a warm downslope wind, similar to the “Chinook” in the USA. If you’re lucky enough to catch such a weather period, you can enjoy your first beer garden visit in Munich.

Average sunshine hours:
3 hours
Daylight maximum (hours):
11,1 - 12,8
Temperature:
quite cold
Outdoor activities (walking, hiking, cycling, beergardening, etc.):
possible
Tourist Density (tourists in the city):
quite low
Stress factor:
quite low
Hotel prices:
quite low

Would I recommend travelling to Munich in March?

The prices for hotel rooms are still quite low, but the Starkbierzeit (strong beer season) more and more brings tourists to the city. As Starkbierfest is (or was) usually a local thing in contrast to Oktoberfest, the last years show that it becomes more and more popular with foreign tourists. It is still an insider’s tip as you will meet way more locals than tourists. It is still possible to go skiing in the Alps. The Alps are just 1-2 hours away by train or car. In Munich, you can visit Museums, Art Galleries and enjoy Bavarian cuisine in the traditional restaurants. Outdoor activities are still limited due to the quite cold temperatures and weather conditions, but if you catch a period with sunny days and quite warm temperatures, you can enjoy a beer garden or sitting outside in the sun of a Café. I would definitely recommend visiting Munich during March, but keep a close eye on the weather. Don’t come if the weather forecast shows rain and cold temperatures. So March can be a good choice to come, but you have to be quite spontaneus.

COVID-19: Germany, Bavaria, Munich shutdown beginning March 17th 2020

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The public life in Munich and Germany in general is shutting down from March 17th 2020 due tom COVID-19

public life as we know it as travellers will change drastically from today, March 17th 2020.
Germany, and with it Munich, will severely restrict public life due to the growing spread of COVID-19. What this means for citizens but also for travellers, I have summarised for you in the following article.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”1466″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

What does a shutdown in Germany and Munich mean?

On Sunday evening, March 15, 2020, the Bavarian Minister President announced that Bavaria, and thus also Munich, is declaring a state of emergency (in German: Katastrophenfall, literally “catastrophe case” K-case).
The Federal Government followed this decision and decided to implement a complete shutdown for all of Germany.

If a disaster is declared, the government is authorized to restrict public life. In the present case, this has an impact on schools, restaurants, museums, leisure activities, but also on public transport and cross-border traffic.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”656″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

Many of these businesses will not open to protect their own employees.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”1469″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

Changes at national borders

The borders to the following countries are basically closed:

  • Denmark
  • France
  • Luxembourg
  • Switzerland
  • Austria

Still allowed to cross the border are vehicles/persons transporting goods, especially food, commuters and Germans returning home from abroad.

All other travellers, regardless of their nationality, who have no valid reason to enter Germany will be turned away at the border.

What are “valid reasons”?
Valid reasons include for example medical treatment, funeral of a family member, a required professional activity in Germany (e.g. commuters, seasonal workers, diplomats, etc.) or the delivery of goods.
The valid reason must be proven to the border officials by carrying suitable documents (employment contract, employer’s certificate, order documents, cross-border commuter card or similar).

Is transit through Germany permitted?
Persons who live in a third-party country and only travel through Germany for transit purposes (e.g. from Italy to the Netherlands) are generally allowed to pass through.

Each individual border official is responsible for deciding on entry. He or she decides at his or her dutiful discretion.

Changes in flight and ship traffic

The German Federal Ministry of the Interior, Building and Community created a specific website for all such travel related questions. Information in English can be found under the following link:

Natural hazards you can encounter in Munich and southern Bavaria

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Every place you travel to, has specific natural hazards you can encounter during your visit. Some places on earth are safer than others and some natural hazards can really be a pain as they occur often. Here you will find out what to expect in Munich and southern Bavaria and what to do if you’re affected during your stay. But don’t worry. Munich and southern Bavaria are very safe regions concerning natural hazards like floodings, thunderstorms and severe downpour.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”80″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

Storms and severe winds

Germany can encounter storms with wind speeds up to 64 knots (12 bft, 120 km/h, 75 mph). Fortunately, severe storms only occur every 5-10 years. The last severe storms that hit southern Germany were in 1990 (storms „Vivian“ and „Wiebke“), 1999 (storms „Lothar“ and „Martin“), 2007 (storm „Kyrill“), 2015 (storm “Niklas”) and 2020 (storm “Sabine”).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

Different storm-names

Like Hurricanes, the European windstorms get names. The European windstorms usually appear during late winter (January – April) or autumn (September-November). An interesting fact is, that the different European weather services name the same storms differently. So if you travel across Europe and you watch the media in different countries while there is a storm going on, you’ll notice that the name changes from country to country. For example the 1999 December storm was called „Anatol“ in German speaking countries, but got the name „Adam“ in Denmark, „Carola“ in Sweden and „December hurricane“ in Great Britain.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”1478″ img_size=”large”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In contrast to Hurricanes in the USA, European windstorms (German: „Orkan“) usually appear without rain or thunderstorms. It is actually just extremely windy. Sometimes there can even be a clear sky. Usually, these storms last for one to four days and therefore not that long.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30″][vc_column_text]

What to do?

Fortunately, severe European windstorms are rare, but there can still be mediocre storms that affect for example air or rail traffic.

There is actually not much you can do as a tourists when it’s stormy. Try to check the local media before travelling. If possible, try to rebook your flight to another destination near Munich like Milan or Zurich and take the train from there (if these airports are not affected).

When you’re about to travel to Munich or Bavaria or more destinations in Germany and Europe and you’re unsure about severe weather, get as much information as possible.

But how to get detailed information about the weather situation, when you’re not able to speak or read German? Just follow these few steps:

  1. Check Meteoalarm.eu. Meteoalarm is a website run by EUMETNET, a network grouping the different European National Meteorological Services – https://www.meteoalarm.eu/
  2. Check the official German Metereological Service (DWD) website for severe weather warnings: https://www.dwd.de/EN/
  3. If you’re a weather geek and need some in depth analysis of European severe weather, navigate to severe-weather.eu, where you can find lot’s of articles about ongoing and coming weather phenomenons.

Deal: BlaBlaBus cheap bus fares (travel Europe by bus)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Travel Germany and Europe by bus starting at 0,99 EUR oneway

BlaBlaBus, the Europe-wide operating long-distance bus company and competitor to Flixbus, is currently again offering extremely attractive oneway fares for long-distance bus trips. If you book at least one week in advance, prices are available from 0.99 EUR (approx. 1 USD, 0.85 GBP). And this on long distance routes such as Munich-Berlin or Munich-Cologne. Europe-wide connections are available from 4.99 EUR (approx. 5.50 USD; 4.30 GBP), for example Munich-Paris or Munich-Amsterdam.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”1421″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

What is BlaBlaBus?

BlaBlaBus is a French company providing long distance bus services throughout Europe. The owner is the ridesharing company “BlaBlaCar”, which is well known in Europe.

After the German company Flixbus has gained a large market share in Europe, there is little competition. BlaBlaBus is one of the competitors and offers from time to time very reasonable long distance fares. If you as a traveller through Europe have the time to sit in a long distance bus for several hours, you can travel cheaply by bus throughout Europe. This is ideal for travelers on a tight budget, students or backpackers.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”1427″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_circle_2″][vc_column_text]

How big is the BlaBlaBus network?

From Munich you can reach all major cities in Germany and western Europe such as Berlin, Cologne, Straßbourg, Paris, Amsterdam, Luxembourg or Milan. See the whole BlaBlaBus network.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]

Cheap fares with BlaBlaBus?

During March you can find very cheap fares to German cities starting as low as 0.99 EUR oneway.

These are the cheapest routes for 0.99 EUR oneway:

Munich – Berlin

Munich – Ulm

Munich – Nuremberg

Munich – Würzburg

Munich – Frankfurt

Munich – Leipzig

Munich – Cologne

Munich – Mannheim

 

Other cities in Germany can be reached for 1.98 EUR:

Munich – Stuttgart

Munich – Heidelberg

Munich – Düsseldorf

Munich – Dortmund

Munich – Münster

Munich – Bielefeld

Munich – Osnabrück

Munich – Hannover

Munich – Bremen

Munich – Hamburg

What is included in the cheap fares?

Often such offers are just bait and switch offers or you have to book every little thing extra in the further booking process. But not here!
The following things are included in the special rate:

  • Two pieces of luggage/person (max. 20kg/44lbs per piece; LxHxW = max. 200cm/78.7in)
  • Two pieces of carry-on baggage (must fit in the overhead compartment)
  • Seat reservation
  • Air Conditioned bus
  • In-seat Power-Outlet and USB-Outlet
  • Toilet in bus
  • reclining seats
  • free Wi-fi (restricted to network coverage. There may be areas with no mobile signal)

But there has to be a snag to it, does it?

The only thing I found was the fact that the fares couldn’t be booked short-term (tomorrow, day after tomorrow). Also, the fare was linked to a certain connection. Usually one or two early connections (in the morning) and a late connection (in the evening).

How to book?

Go to the BlaBlaBus map. There you can choose your departure and arrival city and filter for prices. BlaBlaBus offers the following payment options:

  • Credit Card
  • PayPal
  • SOFORT (German customers only)

The Munich taxi system – The complete guide for travellers

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Learn how to use a taxi in Munich and find out about the costs

Getting around in Munich is easy. The most relaxed and convenient way is using a taxi. But how does the Munich taxi system work and is it expensive to ride in a cab? There are often questions like these popping up in traveller forums. Also there is a fear to get scammed by taxidrivers. So here is a complete guide on using taxis in Munich and Germany.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][dt_quote background=”fancy”]

  • how to get from and to the airport/station/my accomodation?
  • Are there “good” and “bad” taxi companies?
  • Do they all have the same prices?
  • How is the tariff calculated?
  • May I take every taxi, or are there differences between the companies?

[/dt_quote][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_column_text]I travelled a few countries and realized, that using taxis is something that tourists do more regularly than citizens and they often have questions like these. As a local you know what to to and how to use taxis in your hometown. But especially for first time visitors the taxi system in Germany may be new.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The different taxi companies in Munich

Actually there are more than 1.500 different taxi companies in Munich, but you usually won’t notice a thing, as most of them are consolidated in taxi offices. With about 4.000 Taxis Munich has the highest density of taxis per inhabitant in Germany (2.5 taxis per 1.000 citizens). Even the capital of Germany (Berlin) has a lower density (2.3 taxis per 1.000 citizens).

There are two taxi offices in Munich, which manage nearly all taxis in Munich.

Taxi-München: One of the oldest taxi offices in Germany, founded in 1917. It is a mutual company with about 3.000 members (taxis) and therefore the biggest taxi office in Germany.

IsarFunk: Another big taxi office with lots of members (taxis)

 

Taxis in Munich and Germany

Colour: All taxi cars have to be couloured in the same colour-scheme in Germany (exceptions in a few German states, but not in Bavaria). Every taxi has to be painted in „bright ivory“. Actually it looks like cream white or a very bright yellow.

Advertisements: Some taxis have advertisements on their doors. There is no difference between taxis with or without advertisements, so no worries about that.

Taxi signs: All taxis have a specific yellow/black taxi sign on their roof.

Car brands: taxis are often Mercedes-Benz’s but there is no rule that taxis must be Benz’s. You will also find VWs, BMWs, Chryslers, Toyotas and even Porsches or a Maybach.

As mentioned, there are many taxi companies in Munich and most of them are consolidated in the two taxi offices Taxi München e.G. and IsarFunk, but of course it is possible to call the taxi companies directly if you wish. To be honest this is something mostly residents do. As a tourist, I recommend hailing a taxi, or order a taxi through the taxi offices or mobile apps, which is much more convenient.
If you wish to contact the many taxi companies directly, you can search the web for those companies.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50″][vc_single_image image=”1397″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_empty_space height=”80″][vc_column_text]

Finding a taxi in Munich

When you’re in the inner city, you usually won’t have a problem to find a taxi as there are many of them driving around and there are also taxi ranks (cab stands) near main attractions and areas where lot’s of pedestrians are (e.g. rail stations, subway stations and tourist hotspots). But when you’re a bit off in the outskirts, you will have a hard time finding a taxi. There, you usually have to call a taxi office or use a mobile app for ordering a taxi.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30″][vc_tta_tabs][vc_tta_section i_position=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-hand-paper” add_icon=”true” title=”Hail a taxi in Munich” tab_id=”1582703698497-5bcfbb3a-48c8″][vc_column_text]When you’re in the inner city or a quite touristy area, you will see quite a lot of taxis passing by. If you like to use a taxi, you can hail one. If the taxi is free, the driver will stop for you (or will show you he/she will stop for you in a few meters, where the traffic allows stopping). During the night, you can see if a taxi is free or not, because every taxi that is free has to illuminate the yellow taxi sign on the roof of the car. Taxis without an illuminated sign will not stop for you, as they already have guests or are on their way to pick up guests who ordered a taxi.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30″][vc_single_image image=”1364″ img_size=”500×500″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_empty_space height=”30″][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_position=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-walking” add_icon=”true” title=”Go to a taxi rank (cab stand)” tab_id=”1582703698542-b80c4ef5-f631″][vc_column_text]When you don’t see any taxis in the street, try walking to a taxi rank (cab stand). You can usually find cab stands in Munich near sights, bigger squares, subway stations and rail stations. It is also possible to call a taxi rank, as the most taxi ranks have a special telephone booth for the taxi drivers who will hop out of their car and answer the call when the booth rings.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_position=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-phone-volume” add_icon=”true” title=”Call a taxi office” tab_id=”1582704018324-78d3263a-c817″][vc_column_text]You can call the two taxi offices (Taxi München e.G. and IsarFunk). These taxi offices operate 24/7 and can send a taxi to you.

– Taxi München e.G. phone number is: +49 89 21 610
– IsarFunk phone number is: +49 89 450 540[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_position=”right” i_icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-globe” add_icon=”true” title=”Order a taxi online or with a mobile app” tab_id=”1582704019951-a504cc8d-b071″][vc_column_text]You can easily order a taxi online or through a mobile app on your mobile phone.

At the moment there are two major mobile phone apps for ordering a taxi in Munich:

– Taxi.eu: With this mobile app it is not only to order a taxi in Munich, but in most European cities (about 100 cities in Europe). You can download the app for Android phones and for phones using IOS (Apple). Or order directly through the website itself. For more information check out the multilingual website www.taxi.eu.

The taxi tariffs in Munich

The taxi tariffs in Munich are regulated and supervised by the City of Munich. The taxi tariff is set by a specific taxi tariff decree, therefore you can be sure that every taxi driver will charge you the same price for the same route.

The tariff system seems quite easy, but most citizens will agree that the prices using a taxi are somehow not predictable. This because of the fare per kilometre is added to the waiting time fare. The waiting time fare always takes action, when the taxi doesn’t move. This is the case when the taxi is stopped by a traffic light, traffic jam or similar things. Every minute the taximeter will then add 0.50 EUR (approx. 0.60 USD, 0.40 GBP). Thats 1/60 of 30.00 EUR waiting time fee[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][vc_column_text]
