Why It Matters
Locke's first mainland European property and the brand's most central Munich location. Interior design by Fettle references the proto-Bauhaus Deutscher Werkbund movement that was literally born in Munich, making this one of the more thoughtfully site-rooted aparthotel designs in the city. The art collection features work by local artists including illustrator Veronika Grenzebach.
Schwan Locke is Locke's most central Munich outpost — 151 studio apartments in the Theresienwiese district, steps from Munich Hauptbahnhof and a short walk from the Oktoberfest grounds. The design, by London-LA studio Fettle, takes the Deutscher Werkbund movement as its starting point: think bespoke mohair-upholstered furniture, two-tone painted walls, chrome and steel details, and artwork by local artists celebrating the women of Werkbund. Every apartment has a full kitchen, dining table, and either a balcony or private terrace. No pool, no spa — but the coworking lounge, courtyard, and gym cover most bases.
Where You'll Stay
8 room types available
City Studio
A no-nonsense city studio with a private balcony. Compact but functional — everything for a short Munich stay without the frills of the suites. Good value entry point for those who just need a kitchen and a proper bed.
Locke Studio
The workhorse of the lineup. Around 26m² of open-plan space with a full kitchen, lounge area, and proper dining setup. Two-tone painted walls in either green or blue with contrasting mohair upholstery on the headboard and sofa. A 150cm x 200cm king-size bed. No balcony in base configuration.
King · 26 sqm
Locke Studio - Accessible Twin
Specially designed 32m² accessible studio with two single beds in an open-plan layout. Wider doorways, roll-in shower with support rails, emergency pull cords, and accessible light switches. One of the few Munich city-centre aparthotels with properly designed accessibility features.
Twin · 32 sqm
Locke Studio with Balcony
The same 26m² Locke Studio but with a private balcony complete with table and chairs. The extra outdoor space makes a meaningful difference for longer stays or anyone who likes morning coffee with some air.
King · 26 sqm
Ludwig Suite
The top-of-the-range option. 37m² with as much outdoor space as indoor — a spacious roof terrace with al-fresco dining table and panoramic city views. Inside there's a bespoke drinks cabinet, full kitchen, and a 150cm x 200cm king-size bed. A dining banquette adds entertaining capacity. Fettle's interior uses soft pink walls transitioning to deep pink on the ceiling, with deep blue mohair on the headboard and sofa. Can interconnect with adjacent Locke Studios with Balcony to create a two-bedroom arrangement.
King · 37 sqm
One Bedroom Open Plan Suite
A 32m² suite with an open-plan layout and a balcony overlooking the leafy internal courtyard. More space than the studios and a better living area configuration for longer stays.
King · 32 sqm
Terrace Suite
32m² with a private furnished terrace. Designed for longer stays, working trips, or anything that calls for outside space you can actually use. The terrace overlooks the courtyard.
King · 32 sqm
Terrace Suite – Panoramic View
Same 32m² layout as the Terrace Suite but positioned for sweeping panoramic views — including the Alps on clear days. One of the most appealing rooms in the building for the view alone.
