We stayed here one night as a layover between cities on our trip. It's a very short walk (roughly 2-3 blocks) to the train station-- super convenient. As everyone said, the surrounding area is somewhat questionable at first glance, but it ended up being fine. We walked around past sunset and felt safe. The hotel itself is in between two strip clubs and looks like it might be a bit shady itself, at first, but inside was really nice, our room was fairly big and very clean. The furnishings were pretty new and the whole effect was rather nice. The breakfast is expansive, so come hungry!!! Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would stay again. By the way--we asked for a room in the back of the hotel, away from the street; they were happy to accommodate, and we didn't hear any street noise.

Our first night on our 3 week trip to Munich, Germany, Austria & Italy started at the Hotel Astor. The hotel was great, walking distance from the train station and close to the Munich city walk tour.There are lots of good eating places around the hotel. Employees all spoke English and were very helpful & friendly. They had free internet complete with a computer for the guests in the lobby of the hotel. The room was very clean and had everything that we needed, like a hair dryer, shower cap,etc.The breakfast was the best breakfast we had on our trip. It included fresh fruit & fruit juices,coffee,tea, milk, cereal,nuts, pastries, breads, chesses, salmon, lunch meats, bacon, sausage, eggs(boil & scrambled), etc. With a breakfast like that all we needed is one meal at the end of the day. We paid 80.00 Euros each night (April 30 & May 1/08). Fantastic place and excellent value.

The hotel is in a very good position, near the railway station and 5 minutes' walk from the city centre; breakfast was really great, continental and German at the same time; very good relationship price/quality.

Our reservation was not correct, we ordered 2 triple rooms, had to pay for extra room the first night. Not happy at all.

My wife and I (from USA) stayed at the Hotel Astor for 4 days in November 07. This hotel is an excellent deal. The room was very clean, the bath/shower excellent, and the beds provided a good night's rest. The breakfast was unsurpassed in any hotel we've stayed at in Europe (about 6 countries). Having read the reviews, some people take exception to the neighborhood. My advice: you won't find trouble in this neighborhood unless you're looking for it. If you want a nicer location, pick the Hilton up on the Franz Josef Strasse and pay accordingly.

Hotel was perfect for the price and within waking distance from the train station and the pedestrian zone. Very helpful and friendly staff took care of all our questions and needs. The room was a bit small but clean and safe, which is all we had hoped for. The best part was the breakfast. Wide variety spread and very good; much better than any other place we stayed by far. I would definitly go back here when staying in Munich.

The location was great as only a few mins walk to the main train station and the underground so it was very easy to get around Munich. Breakfast was excellent.

Muy buen hotel. Excelentemente situado, cerca de la estación central y a 5 minutos del centro histórico. Aunque alguien se queja de los alrededores no tiene razón: es una zona muy tranquila con sex- shops y muchos hoteles. No hay ningún problema. El desayuno, muy bueno y las habitaciones espaciosas y limpias. Muy recomendable

This was an ok stay. It was very close to the train station which was great for us but we think the area was a bit seedy. It was a resonable walk to all the attraction which were across the other side of the main shopping centre. The breakfast was great and was included in the price. Be careful of which days you plan to be here and what you want to do as not all trips or attractions are open or on every day. We had a Sunday and Monday and this was very limiting. This is probably the same for most places so just be aware of this when making your trip plans.

Excellent hotel. Clean, comfortable, welcoming, with great breakfast.. The only bad point for some people will be the location, which is very convenient (5mins walk from station and 10 mins walk from the centre), but rather down-market, with a lot of striptease and lap-dance clubs etc... not very refined, but the area still feels quite safe.

Hotel is opposite to and adjacent to all-night strip-clubs. Noisy if the windows are open. Take earplugs.

Great location near the main train station. It is a red light area, but didn't feel that it was dangerous at all. The staff were super friendly. My sister came up to visit us in Munich and they arranged for an extra bed in the room at a cost of 25 euros which was very good. Breakfast was lovely.

The breakfast was extremely good! I have never have better anywhere! The room was not as lovely as it seemed in the internet picture. The staff was very polite and nice and the location of our room, to the back yard, was excellent since it was very quiet even if the window was open all night.

A very clean hotel with nice staff and a perfect quality to price ratio: for 75 Euros I've got a very good room with everything (TV, Radio/CD player) and a clean, freshly refurbished bathroom bathroom. The breakfast served in the morning started from 6:30 (!) and will satisfy anyone.
