Munich Citytrip

In tune with the city & right on the Isar River —

A weekend in Munich – 48 hours, endless possibilities

Two days in Munich – that sounds like a concentrated dose of sightseeing, strolling and enjoyment. From the JAMS Boutique Hotel you can reach the city’s highlights on foot or by e-bike, for example, to enjoy a relaxing cappuccino at the Viktualienmarkt, a shopping trip around Marienplatz, a detour to the Pinakotheken museums, or a sundowner on the Isar. To help our guests keep track of all the diverse possibilities and temptations, we have put together a few city trip tips for every taste. And the soundtrack to the perfect city trip weekend? It comes live from the Fat Cat (formerly Gasteig), the Blitz Club, the vinyl-paneled JAMS Restaurant & Bar, or, for a touch of nostalgia, from the record players in our rooms and suites!
