Scandic München Macherei

The place

An irregular brick facade in eastern Munich — architecture worth the detour on its own. Inside, the monotone breaks: the lobby greets you with splashes of color.

The pet-friendly rooms lean Scandinavian. Neutral hues, minimal furnishing, wooden floors, black metal accents. Blackout curtains, a work desk, a TV and free wifi cover the basics without fuss.

A 24-hour gym keeps its own schedule, and there is an outdoor terrace and a handful of meeting rooms. At Zieglerei, the in-house restaurant, seasonal dishes are prepared the Scandinavian way. The bar keeps to the classics.
