A Royal Masterpiece Since 1858

King Maximilian II's Grand Vision on Munich's Premier Royal Boulevard

Commissioned in 1858 by King Maximilian II of Bavaria with the ambition of creating "the most beautiful hotel in the world," Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten Kempinski Munich is an enduring symbol of European grand hospitality. Occupying a commanding position on Munich's regal Maximilianstraße, the hotel stands surrounded by world-renowned haute couture houses, art galleries, and the Bavarian State Opera.

Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into the grand lobby—affectionately celebrated as "the most beautiful living room in Munich." Soaring above is the protected 19th-century stained-glass dome, masterfully depicting the four seasons (Vier Jahreszeiten). Each of the 297 rooms and suites has been carefully renovated to pair historical grandeur with modern Kempinski luxury, adorned with museum-curated artworks from Munich's Alte Pinakothek.

Gastronomic tradition flourishes at Schwarzreiter Restaurant and Tagesbar, named after the alpine char smoked over beechwood that was famously favored by the King's son, King Ludwig II. On the hotel's sixth floor, Kempinski The Spa offers an oasis high above the city roofs, with a heated indoor pool beneath skylights, a panoramic Finnish sauna framing church spires, and restorative botanical wellness therapies.
