Bob W, the tech-powered hospitality operator, has signed long-term lease agreements to convert two former hotels and an aparthotel in Munich into Bob Ws as it accelerates its expansion across the DACH region.

Bob W Münchner Freiheit, Bob W Munich Old Town, and Bob W Munich Schwabing will bring the total number of the operator’s buildings in Germany to 15, adding 198 units and a total of 3,948 sqm to Bob W’s portfolio.

The locations deliver a mix of serviced studios, larger apartments, penthouses, and rooms, all showcasing Bob W’s hospitality technology. This includes a digital front desk, seamless self-service check-in, and 24/7 remote guest service.

The lease agreements were brokered by Miles Knoll from the Hotel Services Team at BNP Paribas Real Estate GmbH, while Prof. Dr. Clemens Engelhardt of Trustberg advised Bob W.

Three new properties

Formerly H’Apato Schwabing, Bob W Munich Schwabing, is located at Fallmerayerstraße 22 and was last year presented with a German Design Award. 

The property offers 71 spacious serviced apartments, including a social lounge and coworking space, and is surrounded by a range of independent retailers, vibrant street art installations, and other cultural attractions.

Bob W Münchner Freiheit, formerly H’Otello Schwabing, is located at Hohenzollernstraße 9, offering 71 rooms in a vibrant area that is popular among visitors exploring the city and digital nomads combining work and leisure.

Situated within walking distance of medieval markets, beer halls, shops and restaurants, Bob W Munich Old Town — formerly the H’Otello Lehel — at Baaderstraße 1 in the heart of Munich’s historic Old Town offers 56 contemporary Bobs.

Pushing ahead in DACH

The three new properties – which are owned by a private landlord – further strengthen Bob W’s robust pipeline of signed properties in key German cities including Munich, Bonn, Berlin, Stuttgart, Lübeck, Cologne, Dortmund and Hamburg. Germany continues to be one of Bob W’s most important markets, as the company commits to further growth in this strategically important region.  

Bob W is now operational in 18 cities across 10 countries and continues to seek new partnerships with landlords and asset managers to secure lease agreements for suitable properties across Germany and the continent.
