Hotel Atlanta is one of the Munich hotels near the Christmas market: from our house on Sendlinger Strasse it is a five-minute walk along the pedestrian zone to the Christkindlmarkt on Marienplatz. In Advent you stay right in the old town, and the way back into the warm is short.

Christmas market in Munich's old town

The Christkindlmarkt on Marienplatz

In Advent the Munich Christkindlmarkt fills Marienplatz. From 2026 it opens earlier: on the Friday before Totensonntag, which this year is 20 November 2026, and it runs until Christmas Eve, 24 December 2026; on Totensonntag itself it is closed. Opening hours and the programme are published by the city on muenchen.de.

From the hotel it is five minutes on foot to the first stalls, or one stop by underground (U3 or U6 from Sendlinger Tor). What else lies around Marienplatz is described on Hotel near Marienplatz.

More Christmas markets

Besides the Christkindlmarkt, Munich has further Advent markets, in the old town and in the neighbouring districts. The city publishes their dates for 2026 as they are confirmed. Ask us at reception – we will tell you which market nearby is open.
