The Property — Numa Stays
Numa Stays in Munich is a streamlined, no-frills aparthotel aimed at independent travellers who value efficiency over pampering. The lobby feels like a co-working space meets airport lounge: clean lines, self-check-in kiosks, and a distinct lack of reception staff. Rooms are compact but functional, with a kitchenette and decent Wi-Fi. It suits short-stay visitors on a tight schedule who want a reliable base near public transport, not a cosy Bavarian inn.
Chronicles of München
Munich was founded in 1158 by Henry the Lion on the banks of the Isar, growing from a monastic settlement into the capital of the Duchy of Bavaria. Its architectural character is defined by the 19th-century royal expansions of Ludwig I, who commissioned the Ludwigstrasse and the Glyptothek in classical style. Post-war reconstruction largely restored the Altstadt's medieval charm, but the city also embraced modernist glass, notably in the BMW Welt and the Pinakotheken. Today Munich is a wealthy tech hub, home to BMW, Siemens, and a thriving startup scene, with a cultural identity that balances beer-hall tradition and avant-garde art.
Best Time to Visit
Full München guide →Best months
May (mild 15-20°C, beer gardens open), September (harvest festivals, less rain than June), and late April (blossoms, thin crowds).
Peak / festival surge
September (Oktoberfest runs late Sep to early Oct) and December (Christmas markets). Hotel prices double or triple. The 2.5mn visitors for Oktoberfest and the markets drive hyper-demand.
Budget shoulder season
March-April and October-November: 20-40% discounts, fewer tourists, moderate 8-15°C weather, but some attractions have shorter hours.
Weather & packing
Munich's climate has quick Alpine shifts — a 28°C afternoon can drop to 14°C with thunder by evening. Pack a synthetic mid-layer and a waterproof jacket, even in July.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Numa Stays, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 to 5 facing the rear courtyard rather than Rosenheimer Straße. These upper floors escape most street-level noise but aren't high enough for lift mechanics or rooftop plant noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor if possible — street-level windows, potential noise from the lobby or nearby street-facing side. Also skip rooms directly above the main entrance where delivery trucks and taxi drop-offs occur in the mornings.
Best views
Front-facing rooms on floors 4+ look over the lively Rosenheimer Straße, with views of surrounding city rooftops and the occasional church spire. Rear views are of the inner courtyard — quieter, but less scenic.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 through 5 are the quietest. They're high enough to avoid street clatter and low enough to miss lift motor hum on upper floors.
🔊 Noise notes
Rosenheimer Straße is a main thoroughfare in Munich's Au-Haidhausen district — expect tram noise outside peak hours, and occasional emergency sirens. The hotel is near the Ostbahnhof train station, so late-night trains and morning freight traffic can be audible. Delivery access for restaurants at ground level may cause early-morning clatter (6:30–8:30 AM).
Insider tips
1. If you have a car, skip the hotel's limited parking (often full) and use the Ostbahnhof public garage, a 3-minute walk west. 2. The hotel doesn't have a 24-hour reception — check-in is via a code system; confirm your arrival time in advance to avoid being locked out. 3. Request a room above the 2nd floor for an extra €10-15 if you're a light sleeper — well worth it.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATM machines at banks or Sparkasse for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the Hauptbahnhof or airport as they take a heavy commission.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants and shops; contactless (including Apple/Google Pay) is standard, but keep €20-50 cash for small bakeries, market stalls and some taxis.
In restaurants, round up to the nearest euro or leave 5-10% for good service. For taxis, round up to the next euro. Give hotel porters €1-2 per bag, and housekeepers €2-3 per night.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A simple filter coffee or espresso to-go from a bakery (Bäckerei) costs about €2.50–3.
A currywurst with chips from a street stand or lunch menu at a simple Gaststätte runs about €7–9.
A main course at a decent Gasthaus or Italian restaurant, without drinks, is typically €12–16.
Head to the Viktualienmarkt or any weekday food market for stalls selling Döner, Leberkäsemmel and Asian noodle boxes from under €6.
Aldi, Lidl and Netto are the budget supermarkets you'll find every couple of blocks.
Primark, C&A and TK Maxx at the main shopping streets (e.g., at Hauptbahnhof or Stachus) offer affordable basics; for second-hand, check the Flohmarkt at Olympiapark on Saturdays.
A single adult MVV day ticket (Tageskarte) for the inner zone costs about €8.80 and covers all buses, trams and U-Bahn. From the airport, the cheapest way is the S-Bahn (S1 or S8) with a day ticket valid for the airport zone (€13.60).
1) Buy your groceries at Aldi/Lidl, not the convenience shops (Späti) or mini-markets near tourist spots. 2) Use the 'App-Ticket' option in the MVV app to avoid queuing and get slight discounts on short trips. 3) Avoid eating in the immediate vicinity of Marienplatz; walk 5–10 minutes into the Altstadt side streets for cheaper, better-quality lunches.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Find train tickets →Munich Airport (Central Area) → Hauptbahnhof (Arnulfstraße stop)
💡 Luggage space is generous, and it's cheaper than the S-Bahn but slower due to traffic. From the drop-off, walk 5 mins south to Goetheplatz – no tube needed.
Munich Airport (MUC) → Munich Central Station (Nord)
💡 Drop-off is at the north side of the Hauptbahnhof, a 7-minute walk to the hotel. Cash only on board, but contactless works if you buy online in advance.
Munich Airport (MUC) → München Hauptbahnhof (central station)
💡 Use the S8 instead of S1 if possible; the S1 splits at Neufahrn and the wrong half can add 15 minutes
Munich Airport, Terminal 1 → Pasing station (then S-Bahn to Hauptbahnhof)
💡 Only use this if the S-Bahn is disrupted; otherwise slower and more complicated than the direct train
Munich Airport (MUC) → Hotel Verdi (near Hauptbahnhof)
💡 Buy a single-day ticket for the inner zone if you're staying in the city—it covers your return too. The S1 splits at Neufahrn; make sure you get on the branch going through the main station, not the one via the east.
Munich Airport (MUC) → Pension Haus Wendelstein (U-Bahn Münchner Freiheit)
💡 Buy a single-ticket for the airport (Kurzstrecke won't work). The S1 splits at Neufahrn, so ensure you're on the right branch for city centre—S8 is more straightforward.
Munich Airport (MUC) → Hauptbahnhof (Central Station)
💡 Bypass ticket machine queues by buying via MVG app or DB Navigator. Validate ticket at platform stampers before boarding.
Munich Airport (MUC) → Hauptbahnhof (main train station)
💡 From Hauptbahnhof, take the U-Bahn U2 (direction Messestadt Ost) one stop to Goetheplatz, then walk 3 mins to Hotel Goethe. Buy a day ticket for €15.50 if you plan more trips.
Münchner Freiheit → Pension Haus Wendelstein
💡 Honestly, skip the bus—it's a 5-min walk. If you're arriving with heavy luggage, the walk is flat and pavement is good. Bus 142 runs in a loop from the station stop to Dietlindenstraße, one street over.
Hauptbahnhof → Goetheplatz station
💡 This is the quickest hop from the main station to the hotel. Use the exit 'Goethestraße West' – it's a 2-minute walk to the hotel entrance.
Hauptbahnhof → Pension Mayr (stop: Schwanthalerhöhe)
💡 Scenic route if you're not in a rush. Get a day ticket (€8.80) if doing multiple trips — good value. Tram stops are less crowded than U-Bahn.
Hauptbahnhof (Central Station) → Theresienwiese station (5-min walk to Pension Mayr)
💡 From Hauptbahnhof, take U5 direction Neuperlach Süd; avoid U4 during Oktoberfest as it's packed. Exit at Theresienwiese not Hackerbrücke.

Top Attractions in München
💡 Walk through the Hofgarten behind it for a quiet spot. The main entrance is free but the treasury costs. Stick to the courtyards.
💡 Don't pay for the tower climb—the free view from the nearby Petersplatz steps gives a nearly equivalent panorama. The crypt is often empty and serene.
💡 Grab a cheese or sausage snack at one of the standing tables – no cover charge. The beer stand near the maypole is run by local breweries and pours cheaper than tourist spots.
💡 Go early on a weekday for fewer crowds. Don't buy bottled water here—it's cheaper at any supermarket nearby. Try the Obatzda cheese spread.
💡 Thursday evening after 5pm often has free entry to the main collection. The film museum downstairs is separate and cheap, not free.
💡 Enter from Odeonsplatz. Bring a picnic and sit by the central fountain — free and rarely crowded.
💡 The free museum shows a 10-minute film about Munich's history in a restored vault. Best part: the courtyard has a free public toilet and a nearby bakery for cheap pastries.
💡 Avoid the upstairs restaurant. Head to the main hall downstairs – it's rowdy, authentic, and you'll share a table with strangers.
