Hotel Claro garni — Hotel in Oberding (VGem)

We really liked this little hotel but can't give a 5 star because it is not really near the airport, and in small village without a lot of food options. BUT, it is above 4 for sure so should be a 4.50. (Munich airport did not appear to be surrounded by hotels like the airports are in the states though.)||||This is more like we would call a B & B in the states, but appears to be new construction and purposely built to be lodging. Our room was a nice size, very clean with a great bathroom. The décor was minimal but that is okay. The breakdast was fabulous and the desk staff was great at check out and they had a honor system fo an after hours coke, which I appreciated! ||||Getting too and from the airport was pretty easy with a car and it is not too far away, so based on the wonderful rate compared to any hotels closer to the airport, we will stay here again when we go to Munich. Just be sure to budget enough time to get to the airport in case of traffic tie ups. A car or taxi does appear to be needed versus a shuttle as we too couldnt quite figure out how the shutte would work.||||Do be sure to check your email for check in instructions as their desk has limited hours. We stayed here our last night of 14 days and I had not checked my email in days and with a near dead phone had to call and get help to check in. It was my fault as once my phone was charged I found the email which had arrived while we were traveling. Thank goodness my phone hung on long enough or we would have been in a world of hurt!||||There is this little Italian restaurant in this small village that does not take credit cards and we spent our last Euros on an amazing authentic Italian pizza there. Try it if you have the cash handy!!||||This hotel is definately recommended if you are looking for a very clean room with a nice bath, truly fab breakfast and a reasonable rate not too far from the airport, AND if you are driving a car and don't need an...

This hotel gets an excellent rating because it delivers everything it promises as a modest hotel near an airport, not because it is elegant or charming.||||It is a new property built at the edge of a small town, right next to corn fields. It is almost directly under a flight path to the airport, so you will hear planes from 6am-11pm, but with the windows closed that was not a problem. ||||The exterior is very plain, and the inside is rather austere and modern. It is very functional, though, with some nice touches not found in some more expensive hotels. The laminate flooring is comfortable to walk on. The walk-in shower was the safest we saw in Germany in 2 weeks. There are electric sockets beside the bed as well as by the desk, and reading lights on each side of the bed.||||The elevator is large - 4 people with luggage will actually fit in it! There is free parking right by the door. Those two things alone are a rarity.||||The bed was very comfortable; one of the best we'd had. The furniture is minimal but adequate for an overnight stay. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was not extensive but certainly adequate for the price. Fresh cooked eggs are available upon request, and the young lady in the breakfast room was very helpful. ||||There is no minifridge or coffee maker in the room. You do need to have a car to get to restaurants and to the airport. It took us about 20 minutes to get from the hotel to the rental car return area. ||||It's a little tricky to find as 4 streets right by the hotel all appear to be named ReisenerStrasse. And the check-in desk is only staffed from 2-6pm. But if you are looking for a decent hotel at a reasonable price near the airport and are aware of the limitations of the property, you should be...

Close to the airport. Arrived late at night and all the lights were off which was kind of spooky, so I’m glad I had someone with me. No overnight concierge but was able to get keycards. Another review mentioned this too, but the keycards for late guests are just hanging out in the open. If the wrong guy catches wind of this that would be quite concerning. There should be another solution for the QR code lockbox. Even just a manual lockbox temporarily would be better so that random people who aren’t guests can’t just grab the cards.

I booked through hotel.com so perhaps this was an error on their part— but when we arrived there was only one towel and one (twin sized) blanket for me and my partner for a double bedroom. I was not prompted to declare if there was another guest with me and it wasn’t clear that there would only be linens for each guest. At least have an extra blanket/pillow in the closet (maybe in a bag with a seal) if you’re trying to be environmentally friendly. My partner and I came in late and had to share a twin sized blanket and only one pillow.

Also, it was not clear that breakfast wasn’t included in my booking. And it’s not super clear on the website either.

Overall, the room was super clean and the shower was nice, but just disappointed with my experience when we came in late and had some bumps in the road. Would appreciate more...
