How to get around
To get around in Munich, there are lots of tickets (valid for U-Bahn,
S-Bahn, tram and bus), e.g.
Single-Tageskarte Innenraum € 4,50
Single Tageskarte Gesamtnetz € 9,00
(i.e. a day-ticket for a single person)
Partner-Tageskarte Innenraum € 8,00
Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz € 16,00
(i.e. a day-ticket for up to five persons)
How to get from Munich airport to the city and back
1. A taxi from/to the airport costs ca. € 50,-
2. You can take the train called S-Bahn. There are two lines, but
both go to the Hauptbahnhof (Central Station) and to
Marienplatz. You can get off at Hauptbahnhof and take a taxi
to your hotel. This should be less expensive. For the S-Bahn
you can take a "Single-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz" if you are on
your own (€ 9,-) or a "Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz" (€
16,-) for up to 5 people; the taxi then should not be more than
ca. € 10,-.
3. The hotel Maritim is next to the Central Station, so those
staying there can walk there from the station. To the other
hotels, it is a ca. 10 - 15 minute walk (or a short taxi ride).
4. For the hotel Marienbad you can leave the S-Bahn at
Karlsplatz (between Hauptbahnhof and Marienplatz) and then
take the tram 27 and get off at Karolinenplatz.
4

5. For the Pension am Kaiserplatz, take the S-Bahn to Marienplatz
and then take the U-Bahn (northbound – either U3
direction Olympiazentrum or U6 direction Garching Hochbrück)
to Münchener Freiheit. From there you can walk (ca.
10 minutes) or take a taxi.
