Hotel Maximilian's

Hotel Maximilian's

On the glamorous Maximilianstraße boulevard, Hotel Maximilian's sits a few minutes' walk from the Roman Museum and the town hall square, with the Fuggerei and the main train station reachable in about fourteen minutes on foot. The five-floor building holds 131 rooms across Classic, Superior, Executive and Suite categories, ranging from 20 to 85 square meters, air-conditioned and finished with the kind of detail that rewards a longer look rather than a quick scroll: some come with kitchenettes for stays that run past a week, others are built for allergy sensitivities or wheelchair access. What sets it apart from the rest of the city's hotel roster is the Sartory Restaurant, where Executive Chef Simon Lang runs a Michelin-starred kitchen of French haute cuisine, backed by a considered wine list; for something looser there's maximilian°s for creative dishes inspired by global cuisine, and Bar 3M for cocktails and regional spirits. The 360-square-meter spa carries an aroma-sole-steam bath, a bio sauna, a Finnish sauna and a separate ladies' sauna alongside the gym, and twelve function rooms spanning 26 to 538 square meters give the property real capacity for weddings and conferences, with a courtyard terrace as a fallback for both. This suits someone planning a proper dinner as much as a meeting, or a dog owner who doesn't want to choose between the two, given the property takes both pets and business travelers in stride. It will do less for a guest chasing bare minimalist design or a late-night scene; the mood here runs toward tailored formality. Book the table at Sartory before the room. On Augsburg's Maximilianstraße, this five-floor, 131-room hotel pairs a Michelin-starred kitchen at Sartory with a 360-square-meter spa and event space for up to 538 square meters. It suits food-focused travelers and meeting planners alike, less so anyone after minimalist design.
