As far as I have heared today the lounge will not return to the roof top. And the director is also gone...

Nearly the hole ZEN is used as lounge. Also the old tabbacco lounge. The buffet area is used for drinks, salads, bread, fruit, sweets etc. There is also a coffee maschine. In the evening the show cooking kitchen is used for the hot dishes.

In which way and which Sheraton? Arabellapark or Westpark?

Arabella - the one closest to Westin. General niceness, lavishness, cleanliness, services, etc. Not an elite here.

The lounge is back on the 23rd floor. While when the lounge was on the basement the hot dishes are hot now the hot dishes are sometimes not hot...

Nearly every hot dish last week was with mushrooms. There is no choice. If you want something without mushrooms you have to pay for it...

Any news about the lounge (or upgrade policy in General)? Any improvements since Forstbetrieb's summary?

Do platinums get full breakfast in the restaurant?

Does the SPA / Wellness area have an outdoor area? (I know there is no pool outdoor but maybe some relaxing/sitting area)

Staff in the lounge is quite nice but food quality decreased compared to the time before renovation.

I was offered full breakfast in the restaurant in the past. Breakfast is quite good.

There's also an outdoor area in the spa.

I'm booked at the Meridien for late May, but I've been reading such poor reviews of it that I'm thinking of switching here. I'm going to be here 6 days for fun, and originally chose the Le Meridien since I'll be taking the train a couple of times.

But given the reviews, and my preference for Westin's over Meridien's, I'm thinking of switching. Any recent comparisons that aren't in the summer (I was told that the invading hordes running the hallways wouldn't be an issue when I go, in late May).

Thanks!

Check in today, “ upgrade “ to a higher floor...
All kinds of suites are two hours after check in bookable. No water in the room. Nothing is prepared from the hotel legend, not even the things from the marriott account.
Fish in the lounge was not even warm...

And “ roomnumber? “ is the new greeting in the lounge...

Anoying!!!

You should have replied: "Yes, I have one."

Has anyone stayed at the Westin Munich and have any updates since the last post from 2019?

Thanks!
