Near Munich Airport: Gaestehaus Huber
We just had the pleasure of spending three months at Gaestehaus Huber in Schwaig. When unloading our bikes from the cargo terminal my R100GS fell on my knee and ruptured the patella ligament. An operation and then the recovery time meant we got to spend much more time in Bavaria than originally planned.
The guest house is run by Frau Huber and is about 3 years old (in 2007) but looks brand new. It is absolutely spotless and has kitchenettes in the rooms. Parking is out back. Bus 512 runs from the airport to Erding every 40 minutes and the Schwaig Mitte stop is a 5 minute walk (10 minute hobble with crutches and a knee brace) from the guest house. The S-8 and S-1 run from the airport to Munich and the S-2 runs from Erding to Munich.
Frau Huber gave us an extended stay price which was well below all the big hotel chains near the airport. I think her nightly rates are also quite reasonable.
Herzlich Willkommen

Why not ask then? The link to the gaestehaus is included in post. You'll be able to get current rates (thereby not dating the post) and rates for your particular situation (with breakfast, one night or a week or three months).
We paid 30 euro per night for the extended stay without breakfast. Your mileage may vary.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
