A Munich hotel in winter

It is 7.00 a.m. in the morning at the Freisinger Hof Hotel and Restaurant in the English Garden. I rub my eyes in amazement. Was that a rooster that crowed? I can tell through the gap between the curtains that it's getting light outside. We are here for two days during the Munich Holiday Fair and spend two nights at the Hotel Freisinger Hof. The hotel and its restaurant are located in the Unterföhring district and are directly adjacent to the English Garden Munich.

From our superior room on the first floor, I look out over the snow-covered trees and meadows of the large Munich city park, on whose northern edge we are located. In summer, you can definitely hear the birds singing here. However, it is still too cold for them in the winter park. But the rooster from the yard, which lies in the park below the hotel, begins his daily work in time for sunrise. He loudly wakes up his hens and the people in the surrounding houses.

 

 

The evening before I had noticed how quiet it is here. I don't feel like in a big city Bavaria to be. On the contrary. When I look out the window, I feel like I'm in a beautifully located hotel in the country. Our sleep during the first night was not disturbed by any noise. Neither car nor aircraft noise broke the silence of the park. On the second morning the wind was different at the airport. I heard the planes take off and land from a distance. However, these were so far away that they did not interfere.

Freisinger Hof Restaurant and Hotel

The Freisinger Hof is both a restaurant and a hotel. It belongs to the Freisinger Hofbräu brewery, hence the somewhat misleading name. Freising is still a few kilometers away from here. Hotel and restaurant are managed by the Wallisch family. We realize quickly that passionate hosts are at work here. Everywhere I recognize the love with which both hotel and restaurant are run. It starts with the setup.

Country-style Hotel

We are accommodated in the newly built hotel wing, which is right next to the traditional guesthouse. Both buildings are furnished in country style. What I particularly like is that they do not just use the traditional Bavarian country style. Nothing seems overloaded. A wooden bed and friendly curtains are enough to give our room a rural charm. Otherwise, it's nice little things, that make up the charm of the room. The little heart of paper, on which the hotel wishes us a good night. In addition there's a red chocolate heart as a Betthupferl.

In the bathroom, the bath utensils are stowed in a glass container made of cut glass. This lends the bathroom a touch of nobility. The white washcloths are lovingly folded in rose form, which enhances this impression. It is little things like these, that show that the Freisinger Hof values ​​the well-being of its guests.

I really like the sitting area in front of the two elevators on the first floor. With its red couches, the white orchids on the lattice windows, the embroidered linen pillows, and the elegant candle holders on the sideboard, with thick, long candles, this corner is very inviting. On a table on the back wall of this room, guests are offered sweets in beautiful glass carafes. Apparently, the guests like to use it, because on the second day we find different treats in there.

A great Breakfast

A breakfast buffet rarely delights me as much, as what we find in the breakfast room the next morning. Its size is amazing. Granted, we only get into the breakfast room shortly after nine o'clock. Another couple is sharing the breakfast room with us. It is possible that most of the guests have left the hotel already. Still, I am amazed at how diverse the food offered here, is.

It starts with the types of bread that are arranged in baskets. When I lift the lid of a bubbling pot, I am amazed to see that there are white sausages floating in a herbal broth inside. The selection of breakfast cereals is just as varied as the homemade jams. Among them I see such unusual spreads as a very appetizing-looking walnut spread.

The same applies to the selection of juices. From cloudy (homemade?) apple juice to freshly squeezed orange juice and homemade juice cocktails, guests are spoiled for choice. Those who prefer their fruit in solid form can choose between melons, pineapples and other types of fruit.

Great Selection for Breakfast

The selection of sausages shows that they like to serve Austrian specialties. Many of the sausages come from the nearby Innviertel. There are delicious salads made from sausage and seafood. A selection of cheeses, beautifully decorated with walnuts, extends the offer. And if you are not satisfied, you can still get a piece of the homemade pound cake, which is so tempting at the other end of the buffet between the boiled eggs and the yogurt varieties.

Coffee or espresso are served fresh at the table. If you want, you can infuse your tea with hot water from the samovar, which stands on a table by the window. A very friendly girl in a charming dirndl delivers it and makes our morning perfect.

I like the lovely decor in country house style in the breakfast room. Bread, tea and sausage slabs stand on decorative crochet blankets. Our breakfast table is decorated with a set of four rose petals and a burning candle. The furniture is done in light wood and complemented by colored curtains, which make the room cheerful. In this hotel you like to get up and look forward to the great breakfast that awaits you.

Delicious Dinner in the Restaurant Freisinger Hof

No wonder then that the two dinners that we eat in the restaurant Freisinger Hof next door, also are great. While we find a free choice of tables in the restaurant on the first evening, we are glad that a table is reserved for us on the second evening. On that evening the restaurant is jam-packed. Reservation is therefore strongly advised.

Courteous, the friendly waiters take off our coats and lead us to our table. The first evening I am curious. Therefore, I order an appetizer and main course. I do not know the size of the portions yet. But you should not underestimate them.

Austrian-international cuisine in the Freisinger Hof Hotel and Restaurant in the English Garden

The menu selection reminds me a lot of our trips to Lower Austria. From boiled beef to apricot dumplings, I discover many Austrian specialties. But there are also exotic starters such as salmon tartare or scallops.

As a big fan of Canadian seafood, I order fried scallops as a starter and boiled beef as a main course on the first evening. Petar chooses boiled beef bouillon with the daily addition (semolina dumplings) as a first course and fried chicken with rocket salad as a main course. The scallops perfectly satisfy my cravings for Canadian delicacies. They are well seasoned and taste exactly how I want them to. The same goes for our Austrian main courses.

On our second evening in the restaurant Freisinger Hof we are a little more careful and refrain from appetizers. The amount was more than enough on the first evening. Therefore, this time we only take two main courses. Petar chooses pork from Innviertler Schwein with sweet potato puree. My choice is an onion roast with fried potatoes. Once again, the culinary art of the chef in the Freisinger Hof delights us.

Apparently, he succeeds in doing so with the guests at the neighboring tables. Because we only hear satisfied approval to the waiter's question, if the food tasted well.

      We especially liked it, because we enjoyed the tranquility of the English Garden and at the same time only a few minutes away from the fairgrounds and the city center. In addition the good food and the hospitable service. That makes an overnight stay there pure pleasure.

      Best regards,
      Monika

    1. Liebe Sabine

      Thank you very much. We lived in Munich until a few years ago and did not know any hotels. It is all the more interesting to get to know them slowly now. Although the Freisinger Hof is not in the city center, it is easily accessible via a tram connection. The quiet location, the good food and the hospitable service more than make up for the journey. We really liked it there.

      Best regards,
      Monika

  5. Hello, I lived in Munich myself for many years, but then you are not in a hotel. All the better that you can now recommend one to me. The next visit to Munich will definitely come;) I am not only convinced by the location (and yes, it is very nice in summer), but above all by the good breakfast. I am an absolute morning person and like to have breakfast extensively. Many thanks for the great tip!
    Vg Simone

    1. Hello dear Simone,

      then you will probably like the hotel. We travel a lot in the hotels of the world, but rarely have I seen such a varied and great breakfast as in the Freisinger Hof. There were even white sausages there. ❤️ Let us know how you liked it when you were there.

      Best regards,
      Monika
