That's the Rathaus (Town Hall) with the Glockenspiel just across from Marienplatz station. Can't recall the times when the figurines move, but do recall reading it was twice a day. I just stumbled into that when I was in the area.
Does the hotel have a shuttle into downtown, I doubt it , is it walkable or just jump on the train for 1 stop to the Main Station
I didn't see a shuttle. No, not walkable. It's right across the tracks from the train station - you'll see that in the photos - maybe a 5 min walk and there's a walkway down stairs just off the overpass. It's one stop from Munich Hackerbrucke station which has a Vapianos (a chain with salads, pasta and pizza) and two stops from Munich HBF, the central train station. Continue on two stops from there and you're at Marienplatz.
