Understated Altstadt refuge
Unfinished flagstone walls and rich wood paneling set an understated, retreat-like tone just steps away from vibrant city squares.
“The Cortiina, a stone's throw from the Viktualienmarkt, offers swank rooms with iPod docks.”
Where it shines

What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The Cortiina’s rather serious approach has proved to be eminently suited to Munich, and it’s managed to be awfully hip... and at the same time completely dignified, even grown-up.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Tucked onto Ledererstrasse, the hotel sits moments on foot from the Viktualienmarkt food stalls and the central plaza of Marienplatz.
The rooms
Parquet floors and Swiss stone pine furnishings frame beds dressed in unbleached cotton, paired with spacious Jura stone bathrooms.
The gym
Parquet floors and a green turf sprint lane line the 24-hour gym, equipped with Hammer Strength weight stations.
Dogs stay too.
Bar
GRAPES Weinbar
More than 1,000 bottles stock the cellar, served beside an open hearth and plush velvet banquettes.
At the table
Breakfast brings produce sourced from Viktualienmarkt stalls, with tables set in a quiet, ivy-walled courtyard.
How it began
Architect Albert Weinzierl and restaurateur Rudi Kull designed the interior using principles of Feng Shui and tactile natural materials.
