While the Hotel Mirabell’s facade is bland and gray, the interiors lighten the mood, starting with the small lobby. The palette is white, black, and neon pink, which is sprinkled about in ottomans, barstools, and a giant drum chandelier. A tufted leather sofa and a dark-wood front desk keep things contemporary and chic. There’s a small three-stool bar attached to the front desk that pours drinks 24 hours a day. Given the lack of on-site amenities and the hotel's location, it ends up attracting tourists on a budget or business travelers sweeping in from the train station.

Located on a main business street, guests are in the thick of Munich’s city center the second they step out the lobby door. Surrounding streets are full of other hotels, eateries, drug stores, and banks. The hotel is a six-minute walk from Munich's main train station, Hauptbahnhof, making the hour-long train ride from Munich International Airport an easy, transfer-free trip. For guests hoping to take in the city’s top sights on foot, the hotel is a 17-minute walk from the main square Marienplatz and 10-minute walk from Karlsplatz Square.

The decor in Hotel Mirabell’s 69 rooms differs by type. Superior Rooms have dark-wood furniture, bright pink throws, and whimsical floral carpeting, but lack any artwork. Suites are more up to date, with light-wood furniture, black-and-white prints on walls, and an uplifting color scheme of white and gray, with royal purple and pink accents. Minibars stocked with beverages, free Wi-Fi, electric kettles, and flat-screen TVs come standard, while Suites also include iPod docking stations, Nespresso coffeemakers, and furnished terraces. Brown-and-white tiled bathrooms are basic, with small sinks and showers, chrome accents, hairdryers, and bath products delivered via mounted dispensers.

While there’s no restaurant on-site, visitors can take advantage of the free breakfast buffet with fresh juices, coffee, cereal, and fresh breads served in the large dining room each morning. There’s also a small three-stool bar in the lobby open 24 hours, where visitors can pull up a stool for a drink. An Internet workstation with a computer and printer is also available for guests to use.
