About Platzl Hotel
My favorite thing about the Platzl Hotel is stepping out the front door and immediately hearing the oompah music from the Hofbräuhaus next door. This charming Bavarian hotel captures authentic Munich atmosphere better than any chain property, with rooms that blend traditional Alpine touches with modern amenities beautifully. What makes it perfect for Oktoberfest is the genuine gemütlichkeit - that cozy Bavarian warmth you can't fake.
