That's pretty much in the centre, S-Bahn 'Donnersbergerbruecke' is just next to it. Take any train in direction Hauptbahnhof and change at Marienplatz into U6 (downstairs) in direction Garching/Forschungszentrum.
Guestimate is a 40min ride - and likely a very crowded train.

My question is, is there a 24 hr pass that will let me go to/from the airport as well as to Dachau? Or is it better to buy a r/t LH Bus tkt 17E to the main station get a local 1 day pass to go to Donnersbergerbruecke and later that day to Dachau
That said what would be best if I make it a 2 nighter still at The Hampton, reason for The HI is least amount of pts needed for the room, toying with a 2nd night in order to walk around and checkout the city , most likely late May

Tried finding the actual costs nowadays for each and wasnt successful except that the LH Bus is 17E r/t , since the SB has a stop not far from my intended hotel that would be great but if the savings are enough I dont mind the extra time especially with a 7am arrival no hotel will let me in anyways most likely. So to save 2 E probably not worth it but for 5E + its worth the savings

The entire network 24h ticket costs 22.90EUR: https://www.mvv-muenchen.de/en/ticke...ard/index.html
Thats cheaper than the LH bus or a bunch of one way tickets for sure.

I was there just last month. Pretty impressive breakfast for a Hampton Inn. Photos of the property in this gallery: https://tom911.smugmug.com/Travel-Eu...y/2018-Munich/
Nice breakfast spread but due to a special diet all I will beable to do is look
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

Arriving very early in the morning and was hoping to grab a noonish flight out , so that Pass wont help me to get back to MUC , while the LH Bus doesnt have a limit on the return portion, or just make sure Im on a train to the airport before the clock strikes 12 or whatever time it was used 1st. Or is the Pass a calendar thing and not a 24 hour thing which would mean having to be on a train by 6am
Will probably stay 2 nights and knock Dachau off the 1st day with having all an all day pass and fend someway on day 2

never mind, plans sort of changed again as the day for the event in ZRH was changed again, so now it will be 2 nights MUC and 5 ZRH. Was suppose to be 3/3 since ZRH has to be 4 nights might as well make it 5 since its pay 4 get 5th free on the hotel
Will use LH Bus and on day 2 a XXL to get to Dachau+ (arriving early morn and wont beable to get into my room so early so the bus will be cheaper and OK with it being slower especially dont want to deal with morn rush ona train
