Hotels near Muenchen Ost Train Station, Munich

The Gambino Hotel is a charming Hotel away from the hustle and bustle of Munich City. Situated in the Artistic and Bohemian Environment of the Ost Bahnhof. A very welcoming receptionist and quick check-in. I booked the Speciale Grande Room. The actual space of the room is somehow constrained by a separate bed in the room. If there's just one person in the room why should there be another bed turning it into a family room? I was told that is the normal set-up of such a room. The pictures on the website do not depict an extra bed. I did not like the bedding - the duvet felt as if washed wrongly instead of dry-cleaning. The feathers formed little bundles in its pockets. The flat sheet moved with every twist and turn throughout the night. Annoying fixing the bed during the night. What happened to the good old fitted sheet? Lovely fluffy white towels and cleaning service each day. The bathroom is very spacious and super clean. No breakfast is offered here, but there are coffee-making facilities in the room. The Hotel encourages visitors to support local businesses where one can get breakfast. Unfortunately, everything in that area was closed. Also adjacent to Lobby, there is a coffee machine and a snack machine. The latter accepts only card payments. The sandwich I bought from the snack machine came straight from the freezer and was tasteless. The Hotel is within walking distance of the Ostbahnhof which mainline Trains and SBahn frequent. Plenty of shopping opportunities are situated within the Ost Bahnhof. All in all a pleasant place to stay for 2-3 days in Munich.

Super clean and tidy, the whole hostel is cosy and chill. The hostel locates at a modern community for youth, so that you can find everything nearby. Check-in procedures is quick. The only thing is that storing luggage (in a locker) needs 5 Euro.

It’s very good, but enough issues to knock a star off. Lots of good things - very clean, modern room. Great shower. Good lighting. Comfortable bed. Fabulous breakfast, with omelettes to order. Every sort of milk you could imagine (though except, oddly, we couldn’t find fresh - the one we thought was it was UHT!). Great gym on 14 floor. Internet lightning fast. The staff were friendly and gave you full attention when you were with them. Issues. Short staffed. On checkout, for example, only two staff, one of whom was on the phone … then the other could not get round an issue for a couple checking online, so had to be helped by the first. When a place is this swish, check in and out should be fast and slick. It wasn’t. Short staffed in the restaurant too: we’d booked a table but were ignored by the two staff who were covering the bar and the tables. A lot of tables and a long wait to be seated. Better training needed: at least greet and acknowledge the waiting guests. Restaurant food was ok. In the room: no access to the online hotel directory: reception didn’t really understand the problem and sent a spare remote up to us, then guessed maybe a software issue. No USB ports in the sockets, and none to loan (you could buy them apparently). (Tip: actually there there are two USB ports - on the back of the TV! They’re fiddly to reach but it can be done, and they charged a phone overnight).

Breakfast is included, and the breakfast is rich and good. There is a small cooking table on the side of the entrance. Although the sparrow is small and complete, it has pots, pans and dishwashers. The parking lot is the one with the big hertz written on it. The hotel sign is relatively small and I didn't see it. It was only found on the day of picking up the car. We parked by mistake and parked in the parking lot of the next motel 1, but when motel 1 paid the parking fee, the enthusiastic brother at the front desk said it was okay. He paid the parking fee and gave the ticket. The parking fee is much cheaper than the designated parking lot of the hotel. Piece

One of the best hotel in Munich city area. Reasonable price. 1st floor is connected to markets and there is also nice pizza restaurant.

Amazing service and amenities. There are even activities for residents to join for free, eg Yoga class. The lobby is well decorated with a coffee shop/bar, and working space. There is also a rooftop bar. Best part of this place is there is a washing + drying machine in room, with free detergents given to us. 100% recommend.

Everything is good, it is too difficult to find. But it is not the fault of the hotel, it is Google exhaustion. I saw a construction site before I left. I deliberately went to Trip.com to see the opening time. In 2019, I thought Google was not updated in time. When I was carrying a big bag at night and was guided to a wasteland by navigation, I felt like a German version of Liaozhai. Take a taxi? No. Uber? Location is not allowed how to call? Inside collapse. There are almost no pedestrians around, calling the hotel front desk, and it is difficult to locate for a while. When she was desperate, she saw two old ladies and hurried over to ask, and they were in-house guests, and the day before they had gone through the same thing. Remind two points, if you use Google navigation: first, get off at the East Station do not exit, take the tunnel, otherwise you will find you turn the place without road, like the road place will never get through; second, tunnel out left turn 20 or 30 meters, first turn right, then, the focus! Navigate you to turn right, go to the Ferris wheel when the direction, ignore it! Continue on for a hundred or two meters, turn left at the end of the road, suddenly open, is the location of the hotel!

We stayed in July 2023 The hotel is in a charming area. Lots of eateries around. And a pleasant 20 minutes walk to the Old City. Our room was fairly spacious. Don’t trust the SBahn trains. We waited 1 hour for a train to take us to the airport. It never arrived. Despite the display screen continuously showing that a train was due in a few minutes. In the end we had to get a taxi and just avoided missing our flight.

I had the misfortune of staying at this hotel from 10 October to 15 October . During my stay, I encountered a number of unsatisfactory service levels. First, I could not proceed check in at 3PM and took almost an hour to complete even thought I had a confirmed reservation with my reservation printout. When I asked the reception staff on duty about the reason of the delay, they said it was because the reservation system was down but they could actually find my reservation from the tray on the front desk! Second, when I entered the room, I realized there are dusts inside and dirt on the outside of water kettle; also, mold is found at the ventilation in the toilet. I asked for a clean kettle before noon on the 14 Oct before I left the hotel for lunch; and when I returned my room at 5PM, the same dirty kettle was still in my room. I have brought the dirty kettle down to reception and ask again for a clean one. Staff on duty refused to change for me until I insisted a clean one is a must. I don't think their staff treated my request seriously. Third, as we all know the deposit of empty plastic water bottle can be refunded from supermarket in Germany. I have placed 3 empty bottles on the desk, not in the bin from the 1st day of my stay. When I returned to my room on the 3rd day, all empty bottles were gone while the trash in the bin were still there. Lastly, according to their laundry service request form, regular laundry (NOT DRY CLEANING) service is available from Mon to Sun 8.30AM-7.00PM. I have placed my order with the form completed as ”Laundry Service” before 8.30am on 15 Oct. Nothing has returned until 7PM. I was told by the staff on duty the information about service time on the form is incorrect for more than a year. She did not offer any help. She just kept asking me why the staff did not tell me no laundry service on Saturday in the morning. Her attitude was so bad and kind of blame on me. There was no customer service at all. I am sure this is my worst hotel stay experience so far. I am extremely disappointed from this bitter experience.

Loved staying here. Really nice room, loved being able to connect to Netflix. Beds are so comfy!! Nice bar and restaurant. There's a tram just outside hotel which takes you to the centre in 10 minutes. There's an Aldi next door, a Domino's up the road and a lovely little Italian nearby called Bella Rosa. Highly recommended hotel.
