My husband and I will be flying into Munich, staying about 4 days, before going on to Prague. I'd like to get some suggestions for hotels in Munich that are convienent to the S1 or S8 coming out of the airport. We'll also need to catch the train to Dachau and eventually to Prague. It'll be our first time in Munich, the airport seems a bit overwhelming so I want to simply this as much as possible. I am hoping the S bahn trains out of the airport are nothing like the Paris metro !
thanks in advance

Hotel Gastoff Maisberger is. One stop from the airport on S1. It is right next to the station.

We were at the Gastoff Maisberger in Neufahrn last month, just prior to flying home. It's a 31 minute train ride to the Hbf. Nice hotel. Without breakfast, we paid only 93 Euros for one night. We've had some very nice meals there. Not much to see in the town though, you'd be traveling to/from downtown each day.
Edit to add:
1. There are quite a few large stationery stores to browse through if you do choose to walk to the town center.
2. Thank you to Carol Now Retired for telling us about the Maisberger so many years ago!

From the airport the S1 goes to the Central Station while the S8 goes to Munich East (Ost). So, I consider any hotel around those stations as convenient. Both stations are also connections into Munich metro, so any hotel that is convenient to a metro stop is pretty convenient. I have stayed at the Moxy Ostbahnhof, about a 5 minute walk from the East station. I have never stayed within easy walking distance to the Central Station.
Dachau, by S-Bahn or train, departs from the Central Station. As do the faster trains to Prague.
Have a great trip.
