In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Set directly on Marienplatz, the hotel looks across to the Glockenspiel, with the open-air food stalls of Viktualienmarkt just steps away.
The rooms
Soundproof floor-to-ceiling windows look onto the New Town Hall, paired with brushed bronze fixtures and deep soaking bathtubs.
At the table
Private chefs cook bespoke meals at the open kitchen counter, and tables look out toward the Neues Rathaus.
How it began
Architects Nieto Sobejano transformed the building's top floors in 2017 into an exclusive penthouse residence for the Geisel family.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
