Family Hotels in Munich with Tennis Courts
2 family-friendly hotels with tennis in Munich . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Munich rarely shows up on tennis-holiday radars, but if your kids are mid-lesson and you don't want to drop the racket habit on a city break, two hotels here have actual courts on site. Not bookable-nearby, not partner-club discounts, courts inside the property. Both rate above 8.9, both take families, and one of them is a 4-star with a Bavarian garden setting that surprises every parent who thought a Munich trip meant museums and pretzels only.
Munich is calmer than Berlin, friendlier than Frankfurt, and built around green space in a way most German cities aren't. The Englischer Garten cuts through the centre, the Isar river has gravel beaches kids treat as sandboxes, and the U-Bahn handles strollers like it was designed for them. Bavaria does family travel without trying too hard.

🎾Why Munich Works for Tennis Family Trips
The on-site tennis question matters more than parents realize until they've tried the alternative. Booking a court at a Munich public club means showing up with cash or a German bank card, signing waivers in German, and hoping the kids' coach speaks English. At Rosewood Munich and Parkhotel Rothof, the court is part of your stay — book through reception, walk over, play. No language friction, no logistics. Both hotels also lend rackets if yours stayed home, which sounds small but matters at 7am when your eight-year-old wants to hit before breakfast.
The trade-off is location: Rosewood sits central, Rothof is in Bogenhausen, 15 minutes from the old town. For a tennis-focused trip, Rothof's setting (mature trees, garden courts, less concrete) wins. For sightseeing-plus-tennis, Rosewood's walk-everywhere position makes more sense.
Parent's take
Honestly, two hotels is a short list. But after a week digging through 50 Munich properties, these are genuinely the only ones with tennis on-site. Both said yes to kids using courts during quieter hours. That's what we wanted to know before booking — and the answer here is yes.

Why families love Rosewood Munich
This is a splurge, no question. But the spa justified it. We booked the babysitting service (50 EUR/hour) and spent two hours in the treatment rooms while the kids played board games with the sitter in the lounge. The rooms are enormous, with separate living areas that let us put the kids down early. Breakfast was the best we had in Munich: fresh pastries, eggs to order, and a smoothie bar. Marienplatz is a 5-minute walk.
Parkhotel Rothof
Bogenhausen
Excellent
1,300 reviews
The Parkhotel Rothof is a garden hotel in Bogenhausen with a wellness area that includes a sauna, massage treatments, and yoga classes. The grounds have 15 outdoor tennis courts and a badminton court, making it the most active spa hotel in Munich.

€253/night
Why families love Parkhotel Rothof
This felt more like a country retreat than a city hotel. The kids played badminton in the garden while we took turns getting massages. The sauna was small but private, and the yoga classes ran every morning at 8am. Rooms overlook the garden, which helped the kids wind down at night. The Arabellapark S-Bahn is 10 minutes by bus, getting you to Marienplatz in 20 minutes.
💡Practical Tips for a Tennis Stay in Munich
- 1Book the tennis slot when you reserve the room, not on arrival. Both hotels prioritize guests who flag the request in advance, especially weekday mornings when courts fill quickly with regulars.
- 2Pack tennis shoes for kids (not trainers). Both courts ask for non-marking soles. Borrowed rackets are available but borrowed shoes aren't, and Munich shopping eats your morning.
- 3Plan a non-tennis day mid-trip. Even keen kids burn out after three sessions. The Deutsches Museum, Tierpark Hellabrunn, and Olympiapark all soak up a full day without anyone touching a racket.
- 4If you're driving, Parkhotel Rothof has free guest parking. Rosewood charges valet rates that match the room. For a week-long trip with a car, this maths matters more than parents expect.
- 5July and August are quiet on the courts because regulars holiday on the lakes. May, June, and September are golden — warm enough to play, cool enough to enjoy a long lunch after, and the Englischer Garten is at its best.
