About

Hotel Gaestehaus Forum Am Westkreuz

Hotel Gaestehaus Forum Am Westkreuz sits in Munich's Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied district, roughly 5 minutes by car from Pasinger Stadtpark. The property is a three-star guesthouse that keeps things simple: a lift, vending machines, and a range of self-catering touches across the rooms.

Guests consistently rate the staff highly (9.1) and rooms well (8.9), and the free on-site parking is a genuine perk in a city where parking is often tight. The hotel is a 15-minute S-Bahn ride from the centre, which suits travellers who want a quieter base without sacrificing connectivity.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Check-in window is tight — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 19:00. If your arrival is later, you'll need to plan ahead – the hotel doesn't advertise a 24-hour reception.
  • Comfort scores lower than other areas — The Comfort category sits at 6.2, noticeably below the rest. A few reviews mention noise or a less plush feel, so don't expect a luxury bed or silence.
  • Facilities are basic — The Facilities score of 7.0 reflects a no-frills approach – vending machines rather than a bar, no restaurant, and limited on-site extras beyond the essentials.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel explicitly does not accept pets, which may rule it out if you're travelling with a dog or cat.
  • Location is out of the centre — The hotel is in the west of Munich, roughly 15 minutes by train from the centre. It suits those who don't mind a commute and prefer a quieter neighbourhood.

“Breakfast was solid with plenty of variety, and the location right next to the U-Bahn and S-Bahn felt safe. The Aubing-Lochhausen-Langwied area was worth exploring.”

8.5Verified guest

“The room was large with a good bed, a laptop-sized safe, central heating, and an iron. Breakfast had a wide selection, and the location was handy for a supermarket and a 15-minute walk from Sea Life Orlando Aquarium – though that's a bit odd for Munich.”
