About Sofitel Munich Bayerpost
If you appreciate architectural history, the Sofitel's location in the historic Bayerpost building is notable - this 1876 postal headquarters now houses French elegance with distinct Munich character. The 15-minute walk to Theresienwiese through the city center is one of my favorite pre-Oktoberfest rituals. My personal recommendation: grab breakfast at their restaurant before heading to the tents - French pastries are surprisingly good Oktoberfest fuel.
