IconRelatively full
I travelled on the Deutsche Bahn ICE from Munich to Nuremberg and was very satisfied overall. The train was quite full, but still very clean and modern - one of the newer ICE models. The journey only took around an hour, which is impressively quick and a sustainable alternative to travelling by car. I had a seat reservation, which was definitely worth it as many seats were occupied. There was an on-board catering service, which I didn't use, but it was available. Toilets were also open, although I didn't use them. The wifi worked reliably as usual, only occasionally a little slow. In terms of price, the connection is rather expensive - I have a BahnCard 100, but I know the regular prices well. Nevertheless, my overall impression was very positive. I travelled privately in the evening and can recommend this connection.

I travelled to Nuremberg to go on holiday there. The train connection was the best and fastest connection at the time, which is why I didn't look for alternatives. We travelled in the evening and the journey was very comfortable and short. The train and toilets were clean and I felt comfortable. The Wi-Fi on this journey also worked well and the train was on time. We were happy with the service and paid around €100 which was good value for money.

I had to travel from Munich to Nuremberg for a conference on business. I always find travelling by Deutsche Bahn the easiest. You can work, listen to music or make phone calls while travelling. This makes travelling much more relaxed. There was catering on board in the form of food and drink. At quite expensive prices, of course. The toilets were reasonably clean and usable. The ticket was relatively expensive. But the train arrived very punctually and I was there on time. I didn't reserve a seat and still sat comfortably.

I travelled to Nuremberg for work on the ICE 888 in January. The journey didn't start on time, which didn't stress me out too much on a journey of just under 1 hour. To my disappointment, the on-board bistro was not open or in any case was not accessible. I usually do some work in the on-board bistro because the atmosphere there is relatively quiet and relaxed. The wifi worked but was slow as expected. Otherwise I have no complaints and for the price it was perfectly fine

I travelled privately from Munich to Nuremberg today. I decided to take the ICE, as the journey is very fast. If the train is on time, you can travel from Munich to Nuremberg within 1 hour. In Munich, you get on at the central station and in Nuremberg you get off at the central station. Fortunately, my train was on time and wasn't delayed. The staff were friendly and I can only recommend it to anyone.
Advantages

IconCheap
IconEnvironmentally friendly
Disadvantages
IconMay be late from time to time
Fortunately, my train journey from Munich to Nuremberg went as planned from 17:37 to 18:40 without any delays. I luckily got a seat in the on-board restaurant and was able to eat and drink there. Unfortunately, the wifi did not work on the entire route, but I was still able to work. The route has very good connections that you can't reach faster by bus or car.
Advantages
IconStaff
Disadvantages
IconLegroom
The train journey from Munich to Nuremberg was a pleasant experience overall. The price-performance ratio was good, as the ticket prices were reasonable and the services offered were adequate. The service on board was fine, the train staff was friendly and helpful. The trains were equipped with power sockets and wifi, which added to the comfort of the journey. The seats were averagely comfortable but not exceptional. Cleanliness on the trains was fine, although some areas could possibly be better maintained.In terms of punctuality, most trains on the Munich to Nuremberg route were on time. However, there were occasional delays, which was a bit annoying. Nevertheless, the overall punctuality was acceptable.Overall, the train journey from Munich to Nuremberg was a good option for those who prefer a comfortable and inexpensive way of travelling. There were a few minor flaws, but nothing that detracted from the overall impression. I would recommend the train journey to others.
Advantages
IconSimple
Disadvantages
IconDelays
I like the fact that you just sit on the train and don't have to do anything. So it's very easy for everyone, small or big, young or old. You have your own little table at every seat, a power socket, lots of space and wifi throughout the train. Moreover, everything is clean, even in the toilets. The staff on the train and in the bistro are always nice and helpful. Unfortunately, there are often delays or the trains are cancelled altogether. In the end, it's still good value for money.
Advantages
IconAlways on time
Disadvantages
IconNone
I like to take the ICE because it is so fast and never arrives unpunctual. In terms of service friendliness, the staff are very friendly. In terms of comfort, the seats are nice and clean and there is no unpleasant smell in the train. The toilets don't smell unpleasant either, but they could be a bit cleaner, but I don't mind that because I'm not travelling alone. To recommend.
Advantages
IconFast train connection
IconVery modern train
IconFriendly staff
Disadvantages
IconNothing to note
I found my journey from Munich to Nuremberg very pleasant. The train connection for this route is very fast, so you can cover the distance in under 2 hours. The train itself was very modern and had all the technical equipment you need for such a short journey. We left super punctually, so arrived on time and the train staff on our train were also always friendly and in a good mood. All in all, a very good journey - I felt comfortable. Thumbs up!
Advantages
IconPrice performance
Disadvantages
IconAtmosphere
I took a regional train from Munich to Nuremberg. There were only power sockets at selected seats on the train and no wifi, but this was not a problem for me personally given the comparatively short distance. The staff was very friendly and the train was on time at departure and arrival. Without a seat reservation, I still got a seat and was also able to stow my suitcase well. What made the journey very tiring, however, was that there were relatively many loud passengers sitting around me, which meant that there was a certain level of noise the entire journey. Combined with the fact that the train was heavily heated despite the many passengers, making it uncomfortably hot, the journey was quite exhausting overall. For the price, however, this can be endured on the relatively short route and I would use the ticket again at any time.
Advantages
IconFast, comfortable ride
IconSeveral times a day
IconFrom Munich to Nuremberg without traffic jams
Disadvantages
IconPartial delays
Unfortunately, the ICE trains only have one socket per two-seater to charge your smartphone. Deutsche Bahn's wifi is reasonably reliable. It is really pleasantly quiet in the quiet compartments, care is taken not to be too loud. The toilets are usually only suitable for real emergencies, which I always try to avoid. In general, I travel this relatively long distance very cheaply for just under €11.
Advantages
IconLegroom
IconDirect passage
IconFriendly staff
Disadvantages
IconNo service
Iconunpunctual
The train journey was in first class. Apart from more legroom, I didn't notice any significant differences compared to second class. As always, no consideration was given to the fact that it was a so-called quiet zone. Apart from a piece of chocolate, no food or drinks were served. But there were power sockets and working wifi. That's something. The train arrived 45 minutes late.
Advantages
IconFree seats
IconGood internet connection
IconSockets within reach
Disadvantages
IconDelay
The train was equipped with wifi and power sockets. The seats were comfortable. You could enjoy the journey in peace, without noise, but you could still have a normal conversation. There was an on-board restaurant. The staff were friendly. It was possible to reserve seats for a fee. Information was always communicated by e-mail or announcement. Unfortunately, the train arrived late in Nuremberg.
Advantages
IconPeace and quiet
IconComfort
Disadvantages
IconWIFI
It was actually a really good journey, I would have expected worse. The seats were comfortable, there were sockets for charging and it was relatively quiet. The train left on time and arrived on time. The only thing I have to criticise is that the wifi didn't work, which is to be expected in 2023. After all, the trains in neighbouring countries all have working wifi. But still a very good journey
Advantages
IconFast
Disadvantages
IconPrice
To start with, I have to say that I booked at very short notice, but I still think the price is quite exorbitant, as I've already travelled somewhere else for this price. But everything else was tip-top! Everything was clean, including the toilets. You could buy food if you wanted and the staff were friendly. I didn't have to change trains and the train left and arrived on time. Always make sure you book early!
Advantages
IconShort and quiet
Disadvantages
IconNone
As with my other journey, it was very quiet and, in my opinion, went very quickly. The ticket inspectors were friendly and relaxed. The seats were comfortable and clean, which I was very pleased about. Toilets on the train were not completely clean, but this is not the fault of the staff, but of the passengers. I think the value for money is good, even when you consider the price of petrol.
Advantages
IconCleanliness
Disadvantages
IconNone
I would like to start with the cleanliness and the excellent hygiene, which could be found both in the sanitary facilities and in the compartment. As usual, the staff were always friendly and helpful. As I was travelling on business, I was working during the journey. The fast wifi and the quiet atmosphere were very helpful. The train connection gets 5 stars.
Advantages
IconShort journey
Disadvantages
IconPrice-performance ratio
A very fast journey. The train runs very quietly and has comfortable seats. There is working wifi and working sockets. The staff were very friendly. The sanitary facilities were cleaned and topped up. The journey took about an hour and here comes my point of criticism, namely the price-performance ratio, as I find a lot of money for an hour's journey far too expensive and that is not a reasonable price.
Advantages
IconFast drive
Disadvantages
IconDelay
I travelled on the ICE from Munich to Nuremberg. The train left on time, but it was an old ice train. Unfortunately, the train was delayed by 20 minutes during the journey and other train connections were cancelled. The journey is super quick at one hour and the price is unbeatable. The train was clean, but relatively full. I would recommend travelling the Munich-Nuremberg route by ICE to anyone.
