Thanks for the map; but, could not open the schedule. It looks like #635 from MUC does not stop at the hospital, only at the station. Walkable??

Yes, the bus stops at the station, but the distance is walkable (about 10 min) or ask there which bus goes further to the Krankenhaus - I believe you can use the same ticket you already bought for bus 635.

They want to charge me 11 EUR for the airport shuttle? Are they kidding me?

cur

Not sure if you're into breweries, but as someone noted up thread this one is in Freising.

I stayed in this hotel last week and enjoyed it very much. Granted that it is about 20 minutes away from MUC. I had a rental car and paid the €12 to park in the underground garage.

I found the staff to be friendly and helpful, especially the front desk staff. They were fantastic. The room (executive) was very nice, spacious and quiet. Nice bath amenities along with robe and slippers. Bottle of water in the mini fridge.

Since there isn't an executive lounge, I was given a "certificate" good for a drink and a snack at the bar, which I found useful. Except for breakfast, the restaurants are apparently closed during peak summer time. I didn't find that to be a problem since it is a short walk into the old town. Lots of restaurants to choose from there.

All in all, I enjoyed my one night stay at this hotel and in Freising. I'd definitely stay here again.

Thanks for the update. Much appreciated.

Cheers.

Just saw this thread. I have stayed here many times and REALLY enjoy the hotel and Freising. I enjoy Freising so much I actually have a 3 night weekend booked in the fall. I needed some more miles to make 1k so Freising filled the bill. Breakfast buffet is also very nice. Staff is wonderful. Couldn't believe it when I stayed here the first and saw a Woolworths there! Every time I go always buy some things at Woolworths. There is also a very good Indian restaurant in the town.
BTW, we don't mind the parking charge either.

I just called the hotel to ask about transfers to the hotel in the evening at 6:30pm returning at 10am. She told me EUR 22.50 to the hotel because it was early evening and EUR 10 in the morning. EUR 32.50 round-trip seems steep and they only go once per hour.
I think I'll pay the premium for the onsite Hilton.

That is exactly the reason why I avoid staying here, although the hotel itself is nice. And those transfer rates are per person, so if there are two of you, the transfer cost becomes €65!

How do you call yourself an airport hotel and charge those kind of transfer fees especially when you run once an hour? Okay - maybe and only maybe - if it was on demand, meet and greet.

Because virtually all MUC airport hotels charge for the shuttle; some (e.g. the HIX) exempt elites from the charge, but not the Marriott.
