The Hilton Munich Airport is getting a new coat of paint - and thus particularly documents its Bavarian origins.
The restaurant is ready.
Airport - Munich Airport is a classic “hub”, a hub in international air traffic.
Now the Hilton Airport Hotel in the Munich Airport Center also adorns itself with this name.
In future it will operate as the “Mountain Hub”.
The Hilton wants to emphasize its proximity to the Alps - and thus attract customers, but explicitly not with the image of lederhosen and beer mugs.
By 2022, all three wings with a total of 550 beds will be redecorated and renovated in Alpine style - with lots of wood, stone and Alpine accessories.
The atrium with its 24-meter-high ceiling - the live TV program Doppelpass auf Sport 1 comes from here - is also intended to convey alpine flair.
Allresto, the gastro subsidiary of Flughafen München GmbH, has already taken the first step - with the complete renovation of the restaurant.
This is no longer called Charles Lindbergh, but also Mountain Hub.
To be more precise, there are two restaurants, social dining and gourmet.
Halamoda reports that after the closure of Il Mondo in Terminal 1 in 2024, there will finally be a luxury restaurant again at Germany's second largest airport.
As is well known, the temporary relocation of Il Mondo to the MAC convention center in Municon was short-lived.
Now there will also be the popular brunch again.
And the Lindbergh has urgently needed a renovation since it opened in 1994.
According to its managing director Gerhard Halamoda, Allresto used the compulsory Corona break to invest three million euros in the noble restaurant.
At the reopening, the Allresto and Hilton teams were delighted to finally have reason to celebrate again in the extremely difficult times of the pandemic.
This is probably one of the reasons why the entire FMG board of directors with Jost Lammers, Andrea Gebbeken and Thomas Weyer appeared.
“We also want to send a signal that we see a future and that things are looking up again,” said Halamoda.
The restaurant is open to the public.
The menu includes veal cheek with celery puree and root vegetables for 29 euros, truffled black salsify with herb polenta for 45 euros, the Mountain Hub burger for 21.50 euros, but also Wiener Schnitzel for 28 euros.
Social Dining offers breakfast from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m., lunch from 12 a.m. to 3 p.m. and dinner from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
The gourmet restaurant is open Tuesdays and Wednesdays to Fridays from 12 noon to 1.30 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. (last order in each case).
