The first thing to say is that the hotel is near the airport it is NOT at the airport. However having said that, it is a short bus ride (No.512) from/to the airport - fare (cash only) is €2 each way. The bus takes a route which allows some of the biz jets to be seen so stay on the lookout. The bus stop for the hotel when coming from the airport is 'Sportplatz'.
The hotel is a good standard Premier Inn with an excellent car park (charges apply). I had Room 237 for both of my stays. If runways 26R & 26L are in use then the room is excellent for views, with those for 26L coming directly over the hotel. The outlook from the hotel room is across open rural fields so nice and quiet. My understanding is that Rooms 201-237 (odd numbered) which offer these views are all 'Double Rooms' - I think twin rooms are on the first floor but clarification on this point should be sought from the hotel. Knowing that I was returning after a previous visit I asked to be allocated 237 for my second stay. This was done for me by the excellent Reception staff.
The hotel has an adequate bar, and the breakfast is good including Continental & cooked options. A limited evening bar meal service is available, but if something better is required then there is an excellent Italian Restaurant (Il Casale) about an 8 minute walk from the hotel. Those interested in beer will, perhaps, note that the village of Oberding is near the town of Erding (the home of Erdinger Bier - there's the brewery and also a company shop). Erding is about a 10 minute drive from the hotel.
If you have a car, then as I said, there is an excellent (and safe) car park. In addition it is only a very short drive from the hotel to one of the excellent 'mounds' which overlook the airport and allow for great photography. From the hotel, exit the car park and turn right. Then take the first turning on your left - Hallbergmooser Strasse, follow the road for about 2 miles until you see a sign on your left for the 'Tierhotel' (Dog Hotel), turn off here and there are plenty of parking spots (free). Then its up the steps and 'pick your spot'. Here, you are alongside r'way 26L/08R and with views across the airport to 26R/08L, means (if you are alert) nothing can be missed. There is a further viewing area along the road but a ladder is required for shots 'over the fence'.
If you prefer to view from the airport itself, then there is a good viewing area in Terminal Two (https://www.munich-
