Baked beans and bacon for breakfast, sushi and sashimi for dinner! Inside Harry Kane’s £3,500-a-night hotel stay in Munich… as manager says he was almost as good a guest as the Queen!
- Harry Kane exchanges his expensive hotel room for a stately villa in the south of Munich
- He leaves the Mandarin Oriental hotel as one of their favorite guests in history
- Has the defeat to Man United exposed a chink in Aston Villa's armor? It all starts
Harry Kane, England's all-time top scorer, eats beans and bacon for breakfast like any regular fan – and is incredibly down to earth.
They are two of the heartwarming revelations that emerge as he leaves the £3,500-a-night Mandarin Oriental hotel where he has stayed since joining Bayern Munich this summer.
Kane is moving into a place of his own this new year with his wife Katie, their four children, his father, mother, brother and his two children's nannies.
Last week he posted a farewell photo on Instagram with the hotel staff, thanking them for their help.
The hotel's general manager, Dominik Reiner, waxed lyrical about the former Tottenham man when asked to reflect on his time at the hotel.
“He was definitely one of the most popular regulars we ever had,” he said Suddeutsche Zeitung through Image.
Harry Kane is described as one of the best guests ever at Munich's luxury Mandarin Oriental hotel as he moves into his own abode
While staying in a room worth £3,500 a night, he ate breakfast of bacon and beans
Reiner described him as “absolutely one of the top five” guests ever – just behind Queen Elizabeth II.
He added: “The Kanes have not withdrawn, on the contrary. They were very open, very approachable.
“He was one of the most down-to-earth guys we've ever had.
According to the hotel manager, Kane “absolutely always” ordered a typical English breakfast of bacon and beans, relying on the comforts of home, although he turned to more exotic sushi and sashimi for his evening meal.
According to Bild, Kane got a discount on a 120 square meter room for £3,500 per night.
Kane, his wife Katie and their family move to a new home in a southern suburb of Munich
After his summer move, Kane lived in the luxury hotel in the center of Munich and was able to settle into his new life well
His new home in a southern suburb of the city will have a lot to offer, according to the German newspaper.
He and his family will be able to enjoy a hot tub, a spa and a terrace with nature views.
The commute to Bayern's training ground won't be too strenuous as it is only fifteen kilometers away.
Club legend Mehmet Scholl and Lucas Hernandez used to call the villa their home.
It can often take a long time for players and managers to settle in after moving to an unfamiliar country.
Even Jose Mourinho was often mocked for living in a hotel during his tenure at Manchester United, with its transience used as a stick to beat him with.
The former Spurs man could choose from a range of luxury meals, often opting for sushi and sashimi in the evening
When saying goodbye, Kane wrote: 'Many thanks to the hotel staff, who made me feel at home since I moved to Munich'
However, Kane has had no growing pains and has scored 25 goals in 22 games, adapting seamlessly to life in the Bundesliga.
In a modest way, his farewell message to the hotel staff paid tribute to those who helped him settle down.
He wrote: 'Many thanks to the hotel staff for making me feel at home since I moved to Munich. They played a major role in making me feel so comfortable in my place.'
