Home to Oktoberfest, the Bavarian capital of Munich is also at the heart and soul of what travelers tend to conjure when picturing Germany. One example is lederhosen: the traditional leather shorts that the destination is known for. And that’s one of the first things I noticed when I entered the lobby at the brand-new Andaz Munich Schwabinger Tor.
Set in Schwabing — a neighborhood that was once the Bohemian center of the city, home to artists and musicians and writers — the hotel has set out to embrace Munich’s creative class, both past and present.
