Munich's Maximilianstrasse is the city's most exclusive shopping street, and the Vier Jahreszeiten has held its position at the top end since 1858. Maximilian II himself inaugurated the hotel, and the location between the National Theatre and the Bavarian State Parliament ensures a steady flow of guests from both the cultural and political establishments. The hotel's restaurant, Schwarzreiter, serves elevated Bavarian cuisine — which sounds like an oxymoron until you taste the Weisswurst. 305 rooms and one of the finest addresses in southern Germany.
