SPECIAL ADVERTISING SECTION Hotel Bayerischer Hof Munich offers lots of tourist attractions. You can even spend the night in this one © Daniel Schvarcz © Benjamin Monn © Benjamin Monn SINCE 1841, the privately managed, award-winning Hotel Bayerischer Hof is valued internationally for its elegant atmosphere and the amiable, highly personal service. Here, the highest levels of luxury come as standard, with its stylish 337 rooms, including 74 suites, set in the heart of Munich, within walking distance of the renowned museums, art galleries and the Opera, as well as the finest shopping areas. The hotel offers a choice of five restaurants (Gourmet, Mediterranean, Polynesian, Bavarian and Spa Cuisine), among them Atelier (3 Michelin stars) and Garden, restyled by Axel Vervoordt, the renowned Belgian interior designer. Guests have a choice of 40 function rooms with a capacity of 10 up to 2.500 people, six bars and the Night Club with live jazz. French architect Andrée Putman designed the Blue Spa, the wellness area on four floors, with a panoramic rooftop terrace. You will also find a 38-seat luxury cinema, the astor@ Cinema Lounge (Axel Vervoordt, 2011), which can be rented as a screening room. Vervoordt also designed the multipurpose function room Palaishalle in 2016 and the “South and North Wing“ – with 28 rooms and the luxurious 350-square metre Penthouse Garden Suite – was opened in 2018. In 2019, 47 years after its grand opening, the Palais Keller underwent renovation. With a sensitivity for historic building structures as well as his intuitiveness for form, colours and materials, Vervoodt created energy and new dimensions so that traditional Bavarian cuisine can be served in a venue of peacefulness and simplicity. And then in 2020 he completed his latest project – the renewal of the function rooms in our historic Palais Montgelas, in which he emphasised the individuality of each room and at the same time artistically combined it with the historical character of the Palais.
