The 49 best pet-friendly places and activities in Dresden

Loved the experience! The room was great, the staff is super nice and friendly and you cannot beat the location. The spa is an added bonus. Also loved the interior of the gin room. I'll not think twice before booking this next time and it will be my goto recommendation for friends and family.

This is about traditions, this is not a new hotel, but this is its charm! It is very nice that there are places where the standards of service and communication are observed! The rooms are clean, the staff works clearly and respectfully, we witnessed that here they will not look at you that you are of a different nationality. The staff was very nice and polite, small details in the form of coffee, tea and a croissant are very pleasant. I wish this hotel many years of success and prosperity, I fell in love with my room and these windows, the breakfast was excellent. Thank you!

We went Dresden city for our official meeting. At that time our company booked the room for us. Amazing room. Friendly staff. Clean and carm environment. Highly recommended this place.❤️👍🎉

This hotel is fantastic. It has old and modern architecture. The front desk staff is friendly and speaks English fluently. The location is excellent—around all the essential places to visit in Dresden. The Martin Luther statue is close by. Several coffee shops and restaurants are nearby, just within walking distance. The only thing is that the parking is very expensive. It’s 45 Euros per night, which is almost half the price of one night.

Great location supposedly 5 star place. The prices do not match 5 star and you’ll find out why if you book here. They run a bit of a scam on the AC too…. maid slightly unlocks your window so the AC doesn’t turn on.

Unfortunately exposed to scam - thought I had made a reservation through the hotel's website, but it turned out the website was a copy-cat designed to lure customers - and apparently run as a subsidiary of Booking.com. Price on website was debited with additional US$100 service charge, without indicating this prior to charging credit card. I cannot understand how a five-star can co-operate with a company that seeks to cheat customers in such a way. Ruined my day, and staff at the hotel unfortunately unresponsive, blaming me for using the "wrong" website.

Excellent hotel. Every part of it is beautiful. Great location. Perfect place for a relaxing weekend getaway. We’ll be back.

We had an amazing in time in this hotel. First of all, the service was top notch, quick and easy check-in, friendly stuff, they made our room every few hours and a small fix that was needed in our room was dealt immediately. Plus they were comfortable with English! The spa was super nice, great pool and saunas, infra red room, fruit water and tea and come environment in general. Would appreciate a bit bigger saunas, but we went during the weekend at a time I assume most people prefer, and it was fine. Finally, the location is just great, very close to the Elba, pretty architecture around, maximum 10 minutes walk to main attractions, tram station just downstairs, lots of restaurants. Really recommend!

I’m the loyal member of titanium level and unfortunately this was the worst experience in the Kempinski hoteliers. First we got 2 rooms where windows overlooked the stage with techno music and screaming crowds because of some festival in the city. Service at the front desk assured us that the noise and music stops at 11 pm. and it’s nothing to worry about. Well it didn’t. Spooky loud music and screams of enraged youth were until 2 -3 am We couldn’t sleep at all. It was impossible. Why this lie during our check-in? Another thing is service during breakfast. We asked for table for four outside in the patio but nobody paid any attention to set the table, so we had to take the one with the uncomfortable high chairs. For 2 simple coffees with milk we waited 35 minutes so the eggs we ordered got cold. At the end we mentioned that we would pay for our stay different card that the one we gave for security deposit. Nobody respected us also in this case. This is not the experience you expect from 5 star hotel. Service at the front desk and at the restaurant ignores guests.

“HAIRYNSKI” – A Hotel That Disgraces the Kempinski Brand This hotel is a complete embarrassment to the Kempinski name. During two stays in one week, we experienced shocking failures in hygiene, service, and honesty. First stay (Oct 29, 2025): The room was filthy — used toilet paper in the bathroom, used bed with yellowed sheets and foreign hairs. The hotel admitted the mistake but offered only a 10% discount. Second stay (one week later): Despite promises that “everything will be perfect,” it wasn’t. The air conditioning was unbearably loud, and the wardrobe light flickered all night. We were moved twice — both “clean” rooms again had used, dirty sheets. Staff were caught lying directly to our faces. We didn’t get to bed until 2:30 AM. Next morning: The manager promised a refund and compensation, but at check-out we were told “no such agreement exists.” After protest, they offered only 50% off. Worst of all, the manager threatened to call the police if we published a review. Summary: • 3 rooms with severe hygiene issues • 2 night-time room moves • Repeated dishonesty from staff and management • Intimidation attempt for leaving feedback This place is a disgrace to the Kempinski brand. Avoid it at all costs. WE STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST STAYING AT THIS HOTEL. Photo documentation is attached.

Welcome to “HAIRYNSKI” – Nothing Like Kempinski This hotel is a complete disgrace and has nothing to do with Kempinski standards. We stayed twice in one week and experienced repeated failures in hygiene, room quality, and staff honesty. First Stay – October 29, 2025 From arrival, the staff were arrogant and unwelcoming. Our welcome drink came only after a long, unnecessary check-in. Upon entering the room, everything seemed fine—but after returning from sightseeing, we found used toilet paper and a bed with yellowed sheets and various hairs. Bedding was replaced, but used toilet paper remained. The manager offered 10% off the next stay, treating this as a serious issue, which it should have been. Second Stay – One Week Later Check-in was slightly better, and we inspected the room with staff. Later, we discovered technical issues: extremely loud air conditioning and a wardrobe sensor light flickering every 30 seconds. Reception offered to move us to another room. First Move (11:50 PM) The new room was just as horrifying: used bed, stained sheets, hairs everywhere. The staff member saw and documented it. Second Move An upgraded room was promised, but again the bed was dirty with hairs and used bedding. Bedding replacement took 40 minutes, and the staff lied about replacing pillowcases, spending another 20 minutes searching. We finally slept at 2:30 AM, exhausted and disgusted. Morning & Check-Out The manager apologized, promised a full refund, a compensated next stay, and late check-out. At check-out, the front desk ignored this and offered only 20% discount, later 50%. The general manager claimed staff knew nothing and threatened us with police and legal action if we posted a review. Staff lied repeatedly, and we were falsely accused of lying. Conclusion Two stays, three disgusting rooms, two forced late-night moves, repeated staff lies, broken promises, and intimidation. This hotel fails in every aspect and damages Kempinski’s reputation worldwide. Avoid this place entirely—it has nothing to do with Kempinski quality, only the price.

We stayed at this hotel in early July and encountered a shocking situation! We left our car with their valet parking (for which we had paid), and the attendant took our car, inspected it, and ensured that there were no damages. However, when we decided to leave, our car was brought to the entrance, and we noticed that it was scratched! The staff did not inform us about this, and if we had left, we would have discovered the scratches later. We immediately informed the staff, they checked the document on which they accepted the car and said that yes, the car was without damage and the insurance will reimburse everything. In the end, a month later, the insurance sent a letter that they would not reimburse anything, and the hotel itself now writes that these damages were not on their territory. And whose territory is it? We handed over a completely intact car to you, and you saw the damage when you returned it! If we had known that would happen, we would have called the police immediately and documented the damage. You can see your employees in the car's reflection in the photo when we saw the scratches and informed them immediately!

Tucked within the heart of Dresden’s historic center, Hotel Taschenbergpalais Kempinski stands as a breathtaking testament to baroque grandeur reimagined for the modern traveler. Just a stone’s throw from the Zwinger, Semperoper, and the Elbe River, the hotel’s location is as enviable as its architecture. Following a meticulous € 40 million renovation completed in early 2024, the palace has been transformed with sleek, contemporary interiors, thoughtful sustainability upgrades, and a dramatic new lobby that echoes the fluidity of the Elbe itself. Since 1995, the German-founded Kempinski brand has infused the property with its signature blend of European elegance and gracious hospitality. My stay in one of the 60 m² Deluxe Suites was nothing short of exceptional. The suite offered a seamless blend of historic charm and modern comfort, with a spacious living area furnished with multiple seating options, a writing desk, and an oversized flat-screen TV. A separate sleeping area featured a king-size bed, additional seating, and a second TV—ideal for unwinding after a day exploring the city. High ceilings and polished wooden floors lent the space a regal air, while refined furnishings, fresh flower arrangements, and hand-selected décor created a sense of calm sophistication. The bathroom was equally indulgent, with a freestanding bathtub, walk-in rain shower, Salvatore Ferragamo toiletries, and a towel warmer. My suite overlooked a quiet side street, offering a welcome retreat from the lively festival unfolding just outside. Upon arrival, I was greeted with a chilled bottle of champagne, artisanal pralines, a delicate miniature cake, and a beautifully arranged fruit basket - replenished daily, just like the complimentary minibar. Each morning began in the hotel’s Breakfast Restaurant, a refined space with the option to dine al fresco in the tranquil courtyard. The buffet was generous and beautifully presented: fresh juices and smoothies, an array of breads and pastries, jams and honey, cold cuts, cheeses, smoked salmon, salads, yogurt, and hot dishes. À la carte options such as Eggs Benedict and pancakes added a personal touch. While the food was excellent, service during breakfast occasionally felt stretched and less attentive than expected. Beyond breakfast, the hotel’s culinary landscape is impressively diverse. The Palais Restaurant offers seasonal regional cuisine in a setting that marries baroque splendor with modern design. Amalie Pâtisserie & Lounge is a serene haven inspired by Amalie von Sachsen, serving exquisite patisserie alongside premium teas and coffees. Kastenmeiers Restaurant is a standout for seafood lovers, while Bar 1705 delivers stylish cocktails in a chic atmosphere. During the colder months, the courtyard transforms into the cozy Almhütte - a rustic Alpine chalet serving hearty specialties. For wellness and relaxation, the attic-level spa is a sanctuary. The heated indoor pool, kept at a soothing 28°C, is surrounded by elegant loungers and baroque-inspired details. Finnish saunas, a steam bath, an infrared cabin, and a curated selection of treatments complete the experience, with herbal teas and infused water available throughout. The gym is sleek and well-equipped, offering everything from cardio machines and rowing equipment to free weights and stretching mats. Over the years, Hotel Taschenbergpalais Kempinski Dresden has welcomed royalty, celebrities, and dignitaries - including King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands and Robbie Williams. This was my second visit, and while my first stay had already left a lasting impression, the refreshed design and renewed energy of the hotel truly captivated me. Despite a few service hiccups, the overall experience was exceptional. In my view, this remains Dresden’s finest address - a place where history, hospitality, and modern luxury converge in perfect harmony.

Thank you for the lovely stay at your gorgeous hotel. I was treated like a queen by the staff. Dresden is also the one my favourite cities in Germany. Your hotel absolutely exemplifies five star service and accommodations. Special thanks to Erich who went above and beyond and was welcoming and gracious.

I would book direct next time (not through 3rd party). It might have been cheaper but the request for “2 people, 2 beds” did not get forwarded to the hotel reception. So there was some scrambling last minute for staff to make the adjustments. However, the hotel is beautiful, fabulous location. Staff was exceptional.

Very comfortable and quiet hotel. Across the street from the old Lutheran church. Bed was comfortable, room was clean. Very nice walk in shower

In my opinion, this is one of the best Steigenberger hotels. Perfectly located in the very heart of Dresden, directly overlooking the Frauenkirche. The rooms are spacious, quiet, and elegantly furnished, offering a high level of comfort. The breakfast buffet is outstanding – extensive, fresh, and beautifully presented with regional selections. Service is consistently professional and courteous. Overall, a truly exceptional hotel that represents the Steigenberger standard at its finest.

Great location close to all the places you want to see in Dresden. Great service at the front desk; they stored my bike for me just off the lobby so I didn't have to deal with it. The room was nice, fancy modern design, everything in the bathroom is very modern and works well. Good lighting on the bathroom. Some of the furniture (bedside table) is a bit scratched up, presumably because it wasn't designed with durability in mind. One of the light switches doesn't do anything so it was a mystery what it's purpose was. Same for volume control knob in the bathroom - usually those are for a speaker that relays the sound from the TV but in this case it did nothing. The small fridge is totally silent when running, which I appreciate. There is an electric kettle with instant coffee and several kind of tea bags. The curtains keep out all the light when closed. The mattress is comfortable, the down comforter is very good, just the pillow is not what I'm used to - filled with feathers and squished down into an odd shape. Theoretically you could request one of 3 kinds of alternative pillows from the front desk but that seemed a bit complicated. There is an air conditioner control panel and it worked well. The controls are Un-intuitive but I found the explanation in the TV system / guest services info. The room is quiet. No noise from other guests, just a bit of noise from cars in the cobblestone street below, but there are very few cars.

Excellent hotel in the historical city centre. Very good & absolutely clean rooms, comfortable & monumental classical styled. Location is beautiful - you will be live in the middle of historical centre. Take off 2 stars, because despite the fact our room-number was preliminary fully paid they took 58 euro from my card (don't why & for what, may be safety deposit ?) & after 2 months I still don't get it back 🤷

We were upgraded as soon as we arrived by the lovely lady working there. Great room, perfect location. We will return. A great hotel in a beautiful city.

Central to city centre. Very clean and tidy. Rooms spacious and well laid out. WIFI good. Breakfast very good and plenty full.

A flawless stay defined by impeccable service. The hotel is charming, quiet, and exceptionally well-appointed. Its location offers the best of both worlds: a pleasant walk to the Old Town and a taste of modern Dresden. I felt genuinely appreciated and will be a loyal guest for all future visits. Thank you for the generous upgrade!

I have had a very enjoyable stay, i needed a couple of days to rest, have a nice bath and it was all meet. Bedroom linen is very soft, room spotless clean and all staff is very attentive and friendly. I came because of the weekly discount. Probably wouldn't be able to come in full price but rather than that I cannot fault anything.

Great hotel with an amazing breakfast! Room was spacious with a great bath. Attention to detail was here and well done. The location is perfect, in a nice quiet neighborhood with nice buildings and close to the old city centre too. Perfect hotel overall!

Warm, welcoming and professional staff. The hotel is historic and beautiful. Our room was memorable, well appointed, very clean, large and quiet. We appreciated the location in a quiet neighborhood with a good selection of restaurants nearby. It’s an easy walk into the main area of the city. Another visit to Dresden would mean another stay here—top choice.

Really great place to stay, and St Nicolas visited on 6th! Very helpful staff, lovely breakfast. Very close to Christmas Markets, although there are many nearby restaurants, when the markets are on they can be booked up. Think about it before starting the day, the reception team would have helpful advice, they felt that they may have been able to help, but we’d already used the markets!

I've mixed reviews about this hotel. My biggest complaint is that they didn't have a receptionist on Sundays or after 5pm. I had to use the intercom to the sister hotel to get in. No, on-site gym or even a bar. Not what I would call 4 star. However when staff where their, they where very friendly and helpful. Lovely rooms and internet worked well enough for me to do my work. Nice location with good options for places to eat. Would I stay here again? Yes, if the price was rite.

Huge rooms and a big bathroom. It's definitely not new but very well maintained. Friendly staff. Almost no noise! Good price for what you get. Can highly recommend. Nice hotel in the baroque quarter, just a few steps away from the Augustus bridge and the old town and all of the great sight seeing Dresden offers. The area offers a lot of nice little shops where you can find unique stuff like old books, tailored suits and antiques.

Yes, this hotel is extremely dated, and the rooms and beds are not terribly comfortable. But it's a great value, the location is very convenient both to the Old Town and Main Station, and the Soviet-era architecture is really something to behold. It's clean, safe, and gets the job done. 4/5.

The location of Ibis Dresden is definitely its strongest asset,central, easily accessible, and perfect for getting around the city. However, I found the rooms and service to be underwhelming and not quite up to expectations. If convenience is your top priority, this place delivers, but don’t expect much in terms of comfort or hospitality

Use this for a few days in Dresden where you spend your time exploring the lovely city. Only reason for 4 star is the price/value ratio. Rooms were clean, but as small as you'd expect at this price range. Nice and comfortable beds, but AC was a joke. Luckily the windows can open and at 10th level the noise from the streets was low. Breakfast was a nightmare. Crowded, very noisy and the food was quite bland. Cheaper and better to get downtown (and not included by default). Friendly staff at the reception.

This hotel is UNCLEAN. There were multiple hairs on the pillow, hairdryer, and in the shower, as well as a mystery sock under the bed that neither belonged to my roommate nor me. After leaving this hotel, my hair started falling out and I was diagnosed with ringworm (fungal infection of scalp) a few weeks later. I’m not sure if I picked it up from the pillow or shower but I’m pretty confident that it originated here. I understand that Ibis is a budget hotel, so I wasn’t expecting anything except the bare minimum clean room (which I did not receive.) Unless you want a bald, oozing head and some new fungus friends, stay far away from this hotel.

(Germany) Well well...the classic rude reception service, that seems to be a national sport. Besides that, the hotel itself needs renovation. It is not necessary a place to feel good, but more like 'somewhere to sleep overnight and leave soon'

The only good thing about this hotel is that it’s in the centre, 10-15 minute walk to the river. Our receptionist was very rude when I came to ask for help because the card didn’t open my room. We’ve been in the restaurant for dinner for 1,5-2 hours, we only got the soup in the first hour. Waiters were understaffed. The food was boring and had no taste, but the breakfast was great. I don’t think I would come back.

Its budget hotel, good position in the city, but small rooms. No surprise. But better rooms, way better compared to Ibis Paris.

Clean and nice, felt luxurious after several hours in the car. For an extra fee, access to a spacious pool, which was appreciated by the whole family. Within walking distance to beautiful Dresden. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

A perfect hotel to explore Dresden by foot. So close to the old town. Comfortable rooms, amazing breakfast buffet. Would most definitely stay here again.

The hotel is truly in the heart of the city — an excellent location! It’s within walking distance of both the Old Town and the New Town, as well as museums and churches, which makes it perfect for exploring Dresden. I didn’t have the chance to try the pool or fitness center, but everything else exceeded my expectations. The rooms are spacious, and the minibar selection is surprisingly good. Cleanliness was outstanding, and even the guest slippers were of high quality. There was also a coffee machine in the room with plenty of complimentary coffee options, which was a nice touch. I made my reservation through lastminute.de and had no issues at all. The reception staff were all very friendly and welcoming, which made my stay even more pleasant. If I ever visit Dresden again, this hotel will definitely be at the top of my list

The whole hotel and the rooms are maintained very well and in good condition. Housekeeping service is impeccable as well. Enjoyed the view and proximity to the town centre, as well as numerous dining options around the hotel. The tram service is just two minutes away, very convenient for commuting. I will return!

This hotel’s glory days are long gone. There is no real restaurant, just a bar pretending to be one, serving simple dishes on bare tables without tablecloths. I wouldn’t choose it again for 150 euros. I expected much more from a hotel like this. They didn’t bring our luggage. To get to the parking, you have to walk 100 meters along the street. Overall, I do not recommend it at this price.

The hotel is beautiful, very spacious and the location right across the river from the old Town with all it's glory. Rooms are modern, clean and comfortable, breakfast buffet is very good. Lots of variety and good quality foods.

Very nice hotel, great location on the Elbe river, close to Altstadt (historical centre) and to Neustadt (bars/restaurants). Rooms are modern and clean, very bright and comfortable.

I'm staying at this hotel for a few days at the hotel and I wanted to share my experience. First we wanted to have lunch at the hotel restaurant. While the atmosphere was pleasant, there were a few aspects that left me disappointed. At the start of our visit, we asked a waitress for the menu rather than waiting for someone to approach our table. I admit this might not have been entirely appropriate, but what stood out—and not in a positive way—was that another waitress responded with a clear head-shaking gesture, which came across as unwelcoming and a bit unprofessional. The most uncomfortable part of our experience occurred when paying the bill. Our own room number didn’t work for payment, so we had to use the room number of the person who had paid for the rooms. However, that person wasn’t present to provide a signature, which led to an awkward situation. One of the staff members audibly sighed, which felt dismissive and unprofessional. I eventually paid in cash, which I had to go back to my room to get, but by that point the whole situation had created an unpleasant atmosphere. Due to this experience, I am hesitant to dine at the restaurant again during my stay. I hope that this feedback can help improve the service for future guests That being said, the food and drinks arrived quickly, and everything else was fine. Still, paying €27 for two currywurst and two sparkling waters felt excessive and unreasonable. Throughout the visit, we couldn’t shake the feeling that we were treated differently because we weren’t German. This added to the sense of discomfort and left us feeling unwelcome. Apart from the restaurant experience, the hotel itself was great—our rooms were clean and comfortable, the location is beautiful, and everything was well-maintained.

There is literally nothing in the room, no iron, no robes no way to make tea/coffee. When we asked for robes, they said it would be five euro each. Sauna access is also five euros. They charge for everything as even the basic service is considered extra, which is not inline with the stars the hotel claims to have. I would not recommend as customer satisfaction seems not to be their priority.

After mediocre experience in Titisee we were hesitating to take this hotel and we loved it! Very good facilities for a family! Even if the hotel is huge and full of guests, the staff is extremely professional and provides personalised advice and guidance in a very friendly manner. We had a good dinner and wonderful breakfast. They also have a very interesting loyalty programme. Bravo!

Excellent hotel in a perfect location by the river and close to the old town. Spacious and clean rooms, rich and tasty breakfast, and very friendly staff. Highly recommended for both business and leisure!

Excellent experience we too the family suite which was big and comfortable. The hotel is right at the edge of the old city 5 min walk. Still Some room for improvement- in the order there were bath tub and shower but didnt mention these are in the same wet room . No much sense having it together so we couldnt take this in advantage. The bed matress was too hard and shame tbat we did not get queen sized bed for parents , and they cant have sepatated beds for kids only a large sofa bed. Which .is weird since room is set for 4 adults. Breakfast was great but poor lunch/dinner / room service menu

We had to cancel our stay (Booking DRE60429, July 8–11, 2025) because our child suddenly became seriously ill. I informed the hotel immediately and asked for a cancellation out of goodwill. We didn’t use the room, but the full amount (€278.72) was charged, and my follow-up messages were ignored. Very disappointing and not family-friendly.

Very nice hotel. Only bad thing was the sauna was additional charges and the car park was 4 times more expensive than another within a 1min walk. Other than that it is an exceptional hotel.

We booked a day spa package. There was no pool or hot tub which I find odd for a spa. The place itself was pretty and relaxing. We got massages and facials. The massage felt like the woman had never massaged a person in her life before, but she had good intentions. The facials were advertised as optimized for your skin but no skin analysis was made, not a single question asked, but the products were very good, so I'd say the facial was acceptable as a spa treatment. Afterwards, we got hunted down on the sofa by the staff to pay immediately and not when we'd be ready to leave which left a weird feeling. Won't return, but not the worst place out there.

This hotel is in a great location with excellent service, and the minibar was a great. A few details kept this from being a 5-star experience. The pillows were extremely flat, and the towels were basic not that good quality—more like what you’d expect from a 3-star hotel. On top of that, all the towels had a strong Clorox-like smell, which is hard to ignore. Cleanliness overall was fine, but not outstanding.

Great hotel, very friendly and professional staff, perfect location to explore the city!!! Minibar is for FREE!!

Great location, comfortable room! Did not partake the 29 Euro per person breakfast, as that is very steep.

Absolutely gorgeous hotel from the outside, corresponding to the beautiful city center. Parking and subsequent check-In was quite uncomplicated and the staff were very welcoming. The room was just perfect, the bathroom being integrated openly into it. Included in the price is a mini-bar that‘s being filled up daily. It was quite nice to get back and just pop open a coke or a beer to relax. The only down side was, as in many other hotels, the carpet floor in the room, which obviously shows signs of it‘s age. A hard flooring would be much more welcomed. Breakfast didn‘t disappoint either, with a variety of tasty options. The hotel also offers dinner and bar options, I did not use those though.

Very nice hotel and the open bath room with frosted glass doors to the toilet and shower was not a problem for us! The TV was old and small though, but over all a nice and comfortable room. The breakfast was superb! Very nice location and surrounding areas and easy to park in the hotel garage.

We stayed here a couple of times, even as it was still Swiss Hotel. Perfect location and supportive staff. Great rooms and really good breakfast.

A great hotel in the very center of the city. Within walking distance from the sights no more than 10 minutes. Also near the hotel there are public transport stops. The railway station is 14 minutes leisurely. And easy to get from the airport. A huge shopping center is a five-minute walk away, as well as many cafes and restaurants around. The room has everything you need. I was very pleased with the presence of a mini-kitchen with a kettle, coffee maker, refrigerator, oven and mini-bar, every day they reported a sufficient number of capsules for the coffee machine, daily cleaning and change of towels. Cold drinks and sweets were offered every day in the hotel lobby. A small thing but very nice. We will be happy to stay at this hotel again. Everything was great.

One of the best hotels in Dresden, Germany 🇩🇪. I really liked this place — the rooms are spacious, and the staff, especially Bernard, was very friendly and knew exactly how to take care of guests. I will definitely come back again. I’m a very detail-oriented person who likes everything to be perfect, and that’s exactly what I found in this hotel. It’s a budget-friendly hotel but with excellent service. Truly a great experience. Thank you 🙏 There was small issue for shower but that's no matter for me if everyday good perfect.

I had an excellent stay at NH Collection Dresden Altmarkt. The room was modern, spotless, and very comfortable. The staff were consistently friendly, helpful, and professional, making the whole experience feel effortless. The location is perfect — right in the heart of the city with beautiful views and everything within easy walking distance. Overall, a great place to stay in Dresden. Highly recommended.

We recently stayed here for our wedding for which we had friends and family also staying due to location (close to the Kreuzkirche). Service at the front desk was wonderful- they were flexible and made concerted efforts to make sure we had everything we needed, especially on the day of the event. Our room was great. Breakfast was excellent! We will definitely stay there again in the future!

We had a great time staying at NH Collection Dresden Altmarkt. Our room was perfectly clean and cozy. The location is unbeatable. We also enjoyed the wellness area. I would only recommend.

Great hotel right in the heart of the city! The location is perfect - everything is within walking distance, which made sightseeing really easy. The rooms are nicely decorated, clean, and well-maintained, and the beds are extremely comfortable - we had a great night's sleep. The staff were very friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. A big plus is the free access to the gym and sauna - a great way to relax after a day of exploring the city. We only stayed for one night, but we already know we'll be coming back. We're very happy with our stay and highly recommend this place! 👍👍👌👌

Super location! Walkable to so many historic sites, restaurants and shops, and it’s only about a 15 minute walk from the train station. The view from our window is of the Kreuzkirche, an 18th century church.

Lovely, clean and well located hotel. Easy tram to the main train station. Staff were very good, and my room felt spacious and even had nice views. FYI, I didn’t partake in the breakfast so my review doesn’t reflect that.

If you are looking for the perfect hotel at a great price, then Hotel Penck is definitely the place for you. The friendly and helpful staff, absolute peace and quiet, and first-class design will make your stay an unforgettable experience. The city center is just a few steps away from the hotel, the tram stop is a stone's throw away, and thanks to Dresden's excellent transport infrastructure, you can easily get anywhere from the hotel. Brilliant location, professional staff, beautiful design. I will definitely be happy to return to this hotel.

Just don’t go here. You are wasting your time even considering it, unless you’d like to have a disappointing experience. This hotel is outdated hospitality at its finest. The decor is weird, and excessive. There is a strange atmosphere given with the promiscuity of many things in the washroom and bedroom. The cleaning of the rooms is horrible. They were dustier and dustier after each day despite “cleaning”. There is no parking available, unless you pay an additional €18 a day. The desk was incredibly uninformed about the details of our stay which was booked with them as the official accommodation for a a large event. This makes no sense as they had 200+ people residing in their hotel for over a week, you think this would be organized and coordinated well with the employees for top quality service. We had called and notified their team well in advance of our arrival about our service dog, as well as upon our arrival we had given the front desk all the pertinent information, requesting they inform their team regarding our service dog, who would be well marked at all times as a medical alert response. We live in 2025 and I was verbally harassed by an employee for not staying away from other guests because I use a service dog. She approached us in the dining hall telling us to go back the other way and that we needed to sit elsewhere with 0 explanation other than saying the dog cannot come here. We asked her to please go and get clarification from her supervisor or the front desk as we had already informed them about the dog. We had been eating in this dining hall for the last 4 days straight without a problem with the other employees. As someone with a disability, who uses a medically trained dog to most easily function in society, I felt totally singled out and embarrassed as this employee began raising her voice and shouting “No” at us as we asked her to speak outside the restaurant. Several of my colleagues were all around watching this situation occur just to add to the discomfort. As my husband simply began telling her to please come with him to discuss the situation else where the employee began throwing her hands in the air and shouting “HEY, STOP, get back here now”. I followed my husband outside and she ended up trudging behind us while making a scene with her stomping and puffing. No sooner another employee interjected as the previous employee kept yelling from behind. We explained that we were here to be working and have already made the hotel aware of the service dog multiple times. We were going to sit with our colleague which ironically ended up being near the table she demanded we sit at, so had she of just not said anything the issue would have likely not even happened. After all of this; if you are still following my situation you will be horrified to know that I asked to speak with the manager to no response, as I wanted to discuss their disability policy and how they strive to accommodate guests with disabilities. Since we live in the 21st century and this is basic, non negotiable philosophy for the hospitality industry businesses. After following up several times with the front desk I received no response or contact from the manager, despite the multiple requests and providing my contact details for convenience. The front desk even questioned my request after the second time saying the problem is solved, no? I take their lake of care and concern as further prejudice towards individuals with disabilities. It was a completely horrific situation that should never happen and should have been immediately rectified. The worker at the very least should have had to apologize. At the very very least. Soooo, unless you want to support a business that doesn’t have basic care or decency for human beings, you should leave a 1 star review in the name of forcing them to do better and confront their mistakes. I would like to add there was one very kind woman at the dining hall who made the experience less painful when we had look at the other woman or should we say aggressor.

The Staff and Hotel are wonderful! Mrs Wagner was especially kind and welcoming, she helped with directions, suggestions and making my first day wonderful. I’m visiting from Chicago.

Beautiful hotel, Penck's fans will love it. Unfortunatelly not super comfortable or functional for the quality of the bed and the disposition of spaces inside the room that sacrifice the comfort for the tasteful interior design. Internet absent or slow, not a lot of soap in the room, gardrobe quite difficult to reach, no sitting place and a bathroom full of mirrors (some in odd positions) with a quite uncomfortable round sink. Still, 3 stars as the design is really something unique.

Hotel was not clean. Room and toilet were dirty, bed linen had stains and was yellow. Definitely not up to 4-star standards. Staff were nice and friendly, but we were given a room next to the elevator so it was very noisy. On top of that, the hotel is close to train tracks, so constant train noise makes it hard to sleep. Wouldn’t recommend if you are sensitive to noise. The hotel is within walking distance to the city center so that was the only good thing about it.

Be aware! Our room was almost blooming with mold. Mold in the water kettel, under the shower, some stains next to bed with their own Universum growing on. What a dissapointment and health hazard.

Only stayed for one night, but very enjoyable. The room was huge. We were at the back, so had a nice view without the noise of the traffic outside. Staff were very helpful and spoke excellent English. There is coffee and water in the room. Shower was very efficient. It's a great central location to allow you to explore the historic city.

Nice location, friendly staff, and with rare exception nice rooms, but I cannot recommend this hotel for families. We stayed in a family room (room 414 with two king beds), but there was no door between the shower and the room. Worse, there was a mirror on the opposite wall so even if you were looking away, you could see into the shower. Although I could understand this layout if there was only one bed for a couple, we stayed in a “family room” with children. Very odd. We also had to get a new body wash in the shower, which was empty, something housekeeping should have caught when turning the room over.

We spent a pleasant night at the Star G Hotel, which is located right in the heart of Dresden, close to all major sights. We conveniently parked our car in a clean parking garage beneath Altmarkt, less than 100 meters from the hotel. As the hotel is in an old building, there’s a long staircase from the lobby to the check-in area, but there’s also an elevator that goes directly there. Checking in was a bit of an odd experience—the receptionist asked us to enter our details ourselves on a provided tablet, and didn’t do anything while we awkwardly filled them in. Our room was clean, modern, spacious enough, well enough soundproofed, air-conditioned, and had a comfortable bed. We slept well. We found the hotel breakfast rather expensive, so we opted to have breakfast at a nearby café instead. The lobby café-bar of the hotel is nice. We’d be happy to stay there again because of the location and quality of the room.

AC settings don't work so you're stuck with whatever default temperature they've set up. Found cobwebs in the room. Location is pretty good, hotel within walking distance of most attractions.

I enjoyed my stay at the Star G Hotel but there’s always room for improvement. I didn’t find the mattresses to be comfortable, it was painful and I woke up sore from them. Also, I’d love to have two pillows per person especially since the pillows were very flat. This is probably something that can be requested for your stay. I’d recommend anyone staying to request that. The hotel has the heat on very high for what would be spring or autumn weather back home. I just left the windows open each day since you can’t lower or raise the room temperature by anything more than 3°. That being said, I found the staff there to be lovely and very helpful. I think the hotel itself looks very nice. I think it would be great if the bathroom had all of its walls and not a big window in between but at least there is a shade. The area is pretty close to perfect especially for the Christmas markets but if you have any luggage, bring it in early morning so you’re not wheeling it in between people on the street. All in all, I had a great stay, I’d gladly come again (especially if the mattresses are different). The breakfast was also very good, have the eggs, they have cheese with them, but bring your own hot sauce.. if needed

The room was clean but not well designed. The bathroom was split. Toilet and shower in separate locations. The shower was small and no door for shower room so no privacy. There was little light in the room, so bedroom was dark. It could use a lamp on the desk. Outlets on one side of the bed, which makes it difficult for CPAP users or those needing outlets on both sides for other devices. Room service was not great. They didn't replenish coffee in the room and there is no phone in the room to call to request. They did tidy up but they should have replenished the coffee. It did take 2 lifts to get to the room. One lift to the reception desk and another one to the rooms. They did have a very steep ramp to pull luggage up to the first lift, but because it's so steep it makes it difficult to use. It wasn't a bad stay, so please do give them a try. I like to give ample feedback so you know what to expect. We were on the 6th floor and were so lucky to have the view of the Christmas market outside of our room. The staff at the desk did speak English which was very helpful. They were very kind and courteous.

My room was facing the courtyard and could enjoy on the huge balcony. There is a fridge but no microwave. I like the shower. Location is amazing, next to the old town and right next to the light rail, but unfortunately there are no direct tram lines to either of the major train stations. It is 3 star but it was better than the other 4 star hotels I stayed in Germany. The only con is you need to transfer elevator to get to the room and there are a few steps.

We visited as it’s our last day, it’s pretty impressive how much money, time, and effort to rebuild all these historic buildings, including this Church of our Lady. Inside still haven’t had much to see but still nice to visit. Free entry but if you wish to climb up to the viewing tower over 100 steps then have a fee.

This is a beautiful church that is the jewel of Dresden. I loved visiting the church as well as sitting outside in one of the many cafes and restaurants and taking in the view. Church entrance is free. It’s gorgeous inside. If you want to climb up the dome, you need to go around the back. I think it was €12 entrance. The views are great from the top. There are a good few steps going up to start and then there is a ramp around the dome which makes it far easier to ascend.

Brilliant history! In the final days of WWII, the whole city was bombed including this church which was a very important part of Dresden. Following the reunification of German, it was rebuilt using some of the original stone! The building is incredible and there is a stunning view from the top. A must visit!

Frauenkirche Dresden, A symbol of peace and rebirth. Destroyed during World War II and rebuilt from its original stones, the Church of Our Lady stands today as a powerful reminder of faith, resilience, and hope. Its magnificent dome shines once again over the heart of Dresden

It's free to walk into the main part of the church where you can see the beautiful interior, and 10€ per person to climb to the top of the church. The stairs are pretty easy most of the way up, and up until after you finish walking up a big sloped ramp near the end you must also get up some VERY steep and skinny stairs (so beware, if you're a claustrophobe or don't like heights). But the view of Dresden is so worth it if you do it.

The magnificent Frauenkirche! When I last visited decades ago, the church was nothing but a pile of rubble—or more accurately, a heap of stones—serving as a stark reminder of the devastation of war. Reconstruction began in 1994, and on October 30, 2005, it was officially reopened. The church hall is impressively tall and richly decorated. You can climb up to the dome, but we didn’t have time for that on this visit. I’m sure the views from up there—both into the church and across Dresden—are breathtaking. If you only have time to visit one attraction in Dresden, I’d choose the Frauenkirche.

We came for a Mozart concert. It was fabulous. This rebuild baroque church is bright and beautifully grand. It holds around 3000 guests and is decorated with much gold and adornments.The seats were comfortable not like other old churches.it was warm and without drafts.

Magnificent Baroque palace, initially build by August Strong as a an orangery and gardens, destroyed by the ally bombings in 1945, restored in 50s and 60s . You can walk on the roof of the galleries and admire the beauty of it. It's open till late evening and the entrance is free.The inner garden part is currently ( as of August 2025) under renovation. The galleries house 2 museums - one of mathematical instruments and another is porcelain gallery ( which I highly recommend). When we were there in one of the towers a classical music concert was held. It was beautiful to listen to music in a such beautiful place.

I visited the Zwinger in Dresden and really enjoyed the experience. There is a lot to see here, and the place itself feels quite special. The architecture is impressive and honestly a bit overwhelming – you can just stand there and keep looking at all the details. Every corner has something interesting, from the buildings themselves to the sculptures and the way everything is arranged. It was a bit crowded when I visited, but that didn’t really stop me from enjoying it. You still have plenty of space to walk around and take your time. I found myself slowing down just to notice the small details, and it was worth it. Overall, I think it’s one of those places you shouldn’t miss if you’re in Dresden. It’s not only about seeing a landmark, but also about the feeling of being surrounded by such a unique piece of history and design.

This is an absolute must-see in Dresden. There’s no need to explain why — just go. The palace offers much more to see than you might expect, so make sure to allow plenty of time for your visit. It’s truly worth the admission fee. The art museum was particularly impressive !

Dresden Zwinger is an absolutely beautiful place—one of those spots where you instantly feel like you’ve stepped into another century. The architecture is breathtaking, with elegant palace buildings, detailed façades and peaceful courtyards that make the whole complex feel almost magical. It’s the kind of place where you can just stroll around, soak in the atmosphere, admire the gardens, and truly appreciate the history and beauty of Dresden. A must-see when visiting the city.

What a beautiful palace. Baroque at its best. Apparently nearly completely destroyed during world War 2 it now shines once more. Different exhibitions at the 4 wings with porcelain, old master and physics. Close to all the downtown historic buildings. In walking distance to the Frauenkirche. A definite must see.

We walked here to do something. It was pretty. We went across the street to rooftop bar pretty good view and sunset was pretty.

The Zwinger in Dresden is one of the city’s most stunning Baroque landmarks. Its elegant courtyards and ornate pavilions make it perfect for walking around and taking photos. The Old Masters Gallery, home to the “Sistine Madonna,” is a highlight, along with impressive porcelain and scientific collections. The site is well-kept, atmospheric, and beautiful both day and night. A visit truly feels worthwhile.

Fun terrace and great viewing platform to see the Elbe and the city as a whole. Great point in the city to figure out where to head next, amazing architecture with some beautiful flowers and fountains. You may even be able to find a chimney cake!

It's not called The Balcony of Europe for nothing. Breathtaking place to spend some time admiring the views and peace watching. Very positive energy.

wow there was mesmerising view to enjoy. easy to access. from central station i took tram 3 (waider man) direction and get down in theatreplatz. Here there are two spots to explore. One is palace the dresden zwinger and the terrace view of city and river. Evening time very pleasant time to enjoy here.

It's very beautiful views of a part of the city on the other side, to the river itself with ships floating on it, and with various beautiful historical architectural buildings on the other side (on the terrace). There are also several cafeterias and one very good restaurant. This place is very beautiful and interesting for walking so I highly recommend visiting it just for walking.

Balcony of Europe. A perfect place to wind down and enjoy Dresden's beauty. Sit down on one of the benches and relax without knowing the time passing by. River Elbe flows in front of you and sunset offers beautiful views. It's worth noting to go to the opposite Neumarkt to get great views of the terrace.

Such a beautiful place to savor Elbe River and many other buildings of Trieste along with the Augustus Bridge. One can walk and reach there from Dresden Railway Station (Hauptbahnof) via Prager Straße.

A good stroll along the Elbe River with the majestic structure on the other side. Take your time and enjoy your walk along the river, Elbe.

Had the chance to visit this bridge here is a view from the bridge. Also the view of a street musician playing at the foot of the bridge on the south side. During one of the videos you can hear her music.

It's top place for any tourist visiting dresden. It connects historic beautiful places on one side of bridge and take you to old city on another side. Views you get from standing in bridge are so mesmerizing.

The central position of this bridge connecting north to south is a must visit when in Dresden. Well worth the walk. I think the only disappointment is that the river looks to have shrunk a lot over the years. Shame it’s not and proper looking river.

The Augustus Bridge is one of many bridges that connect the north bank with the Old Town of Dresden. But it's probably the only one with perfect views of all of the old town, not to mention the great views over the River Elbe. From afar, the bridge looks magnificent by day and beautifully lit up at night. Close up, it's not so nice because of renovation work that cover virtually all of the bridge.

Really beautiful bridge, coming to the old town from this bridge is the best!

It’s so nice to walk along this bridge, especially in the evening, because you have an amazing view of the architecture and the river. There are also musicians a long the path.

Still under renovation but a great bridge to see all the old buildings. It's a pity that only one side of the road is open to public. Can't take photos from another side.

Learning about Dresden’s history before visiting made the trip even more enjoyable, and we were lucky to be there during a local festival, which made our experience more special. Most of the hotel staff were kind, and the location is excellent — very central and convenient for sightseeing. However, we had a few issues during our 2-night stay. The daytime temperature was over 30°C, but the air conditioning in our room was not working. On the first night, it was so hot that we couldn’t sleep well. When we asked the staff, they said it was an automatic system and would turn on once it got hotter. Unfortunately, it turned out the AC was broken. On the second day, it got even hotter—to the point where it was difficult to breathe, and even after taking a shower, we were sweating again. We informed the staff once more and were finally told the AC was malfunctioning. Although they offered to move us to another room late at night, we were already exhausted from a full day of sightseeing and had too much luggage to move, so we ended up staying in the same room. We couldn’t sleep well either night due to the heat. Also, the swimming pool is too deep for children. I would not recommend this hotel for families traveling with young kids who enjoy swimming.

As my friend is a member here, we stayed for 3 nights during our visit for the first time. The hotel looks nice from outside, inside the room is simple as pretty old hotel. However, the bed is comfortable, same as at other Hilton brands as the Hilton standard. The service is nice at the reception upon check in throughout checking out. The executive lounge is small but nice, happy hour is from 6-8pm, the food and drinks are adequate. The breakfast is good, however, the Asian breakfast is minimal. Otherwise all good. The facility like gyms, hot&steam sauna are good, the swimming is ok. The location is good, just in the center of the old town. Many restaurants surrounded by and great sunset spot by the river. Overall we had a good experience here.

stayed at the Hilton Dresden for about five nights for academic reasons, as I had to take an important exam. I chose this hotel because I wanted a comfortable, quiet stay with modern facilities and service that matched Hilton’s international reputation. Unfortunately, my experience fell far short of these expectations, and I feel it is important to share my feedback. Although I appreciated being assigned a room with a nice view, my request for a higher floor was not met, as I was placed on the second floor. This would have been a minor issue if not for the more serious problems I encountered. The bathroom was particularly disappointing: the toilet had a strong smell of urine, indicating a lack of proper cleaning, which is unacceptable for a hotel of this standard. Additionally, the shower experience was poor, with fluctuating water temperature and pressure making it uncomfortable to use. Overall, the bathroom facilities felt outdated and unworthy of Hilton’s brand image. Another major downside was discovering that access to the pool comes with an additional €3 per day charge. I find this policy unreasonable and disappointing, especially for a hotel of this category, and it was the first time I had ever been charged to use a pool after staying in dozens of hotels worldwide. This practice, along with other extra charges —such as for umbrella rentals—, left a negative impression. Breakfast also failed to meet expectations, offering limited variety and basic presentation for the price charged. As for the hotel bar, while the atmosphere was pleasant, the cocktails were underwhelming; for instance, the caipirinha lacked flavor and the Cuba Libre had little alcohol. Overall, Hilton Dresden does not live up to the Hilton name. My stay felt comparable to a standard three-star hotel, yet at a much higher price point. I would not return to this property and cannot recommend it.

I've stayed at a few Hilton hotels but I have to say this was probably my least favourite. The room was okay but the staff were not friendly. We paid to have access to the lounge which was nice but the staff not so much The location was lovely and I enjoyed the many restaurants and shops around the hotel. Disappointingly I did have some items taken from my room, I'd bought a few keyrings and bracelets from a local shop and after the first day the cleaners had been in they were gone. Obviously I have no proof as these were left in the cupboard above the fridge rather than the safe. Very annoyed as the bracelets were for the evening event that was taking place that night.

Old non renovated rooms. Air conditioning non existent. Untrained staff struggling with most of the things. Shower water temperature keeps fluctuating between hot and cold. Rooms need deep cleaning. Great location and the building looks great from the outside. Everything else is rotten.

just have to come to Dresden for business very often and I do want to enjoy the gold membership benefits…but you don’t feel the staff treated you differently. Even coming here so often they stay insist to see my ID…I just wonder if they couldn’t see me visiting here every week in the system? The reception might have the worst attitude I have seen among all the hiltons I have seen .. two starts for breakfast and fitness team..they are very friendly…

Excellent location in middle of old town, gym has many different static machines. Rooms a little cozy but bed and pillows are excellent. Room controls actually say "cooling only", but the entire building is kept at a good warm temperature. Got a good deal on the business floor as well.

The good things are the location, convenient, if expensive, parking, fast lift, reasonable rooms with some drawbacks. Conversely, staff could do with a course, colour scheme will make you a manic depressive if you are not one already, WiFi lousy, no power points by bed, heating not controllable, no kettle, tea or coffee, mini bar free but nothing much in it, bathroom OK but fittings loose. Avoid the over priced and not good breakfast and go to a local cafe. Bar on 6th floor not very comfortable and the surly bar man adds nothing to the atmosphere.

The location and design of the hotel were both excellent — clean, modern, and very pleasant. The room felt stylish and comfortable overall. However, the bedding was quite dusty, and one of the reception staff was rather unkind. I had to repeat myself several times because they didn’t seem to understand what I meant, which made the interaction quite frustrating. For someone working at the front desk and dealing with many guests, empathy and attentiveness felt lacking. The fitness room had good equipment, but the lighting was too dim. If it weren’t for that one unfriendly staff member, I would definitely want to stay here again.

Had a wonderful 2 night stay at the property. The location is excellent and the rooms very spacious and comfortable. The staff were always super friendly and helpful. Staying at the Townhouse made our stay In Dresden perfect

Excellent location in the middle of old town. The rooms are clean. One suggestion is more vegetation/vegan options for breakfast. Also having a toaster for bread would be good

Tiny room in the middle of the old town. Very convenient location facing the square with plenty of bars and restaurants. Occasionally, you may hear the chattering of late returned visitors in the square. You cannot make a cup of tea in your room. TV won't connect to the internet therefore the Chromecast was useless. Breakfast is decent though. The room was cleaned daily. Won't rate it as 5-star.

We were so impressed with this place - the location, the staff, the breakfast were all incredible. We couldn’t throw a rock without hitting a point of interest - the walk ability to shops, restaurants, and sites is unbeatable. Would absolutely stay here again, and highly recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Dresden.

Our lovely, clean, modern, spacious room overlooked the Neumarkt Christmas Market. The staff were very polite and helpful, check-in and check-out were a breeze. The room was very clean and well tended to our entire stay. Would most definitely choose this location again for any travel, not just Christmas.

Had a fantastic stay in the Hotel Bulow May 2025. Location is ideal, near train station and a few minutes walk from centre. The staff are super professional and super friendly. Rooms lovely and comfortable. We had some fabulous meals, the food is of a very high quality. We thought the breakfast was the best we had seen in any hotel, anywhere. A really special place.

Wonderful Stay at Hotel Bülow Palais We stayed a few nights at Hotel Bülow Palais and had a very pleasant experience overall. While the building has a classic, historic exterior, the interior is beautifully maintained and feels recently refreshed. Breakfast offered a variety of healthy choices and was complemented by friendly and attentive service. The bar was also a nice spot to relax, again with excellent service. One of the highlights was the spacious sauna and wellness area – very clean, well-maintained, and perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return. Highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a truly wonderful stay at the Relais & Châteaux Hotel Bülow Palais. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The suite was beautiful, with elegant furnishings and a carpet that was clearly well maintained—nothing felt worn or outdated, which made the space all the more comfortable and inviting. While the hotel itself is gorgeous, what made our stay unforgettable was the staff. They were absolutely top-notch—friendly, professional, attentive, and genuinely warm. They remembered us during our stay and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Their hospitality really set this hotel apart and made us feel at home. The location is also ideal—just a short walk to many of Dresden’s main attractions, yet tucked away on a quiet street in a charming neighborhood, which made it the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility. We also enjoyed dinner at the on-site restaurant, which was fantastic and an experience we would highly recommend. Although we didn’t get a chance to visit the spa or try the breakfast buffet this time, we look forward to both on our next visit. This is without a doubt a 5-star hotel in every sense. We cannot recommend it enough and will certainly be back!

A wonderful hotel with the friendliest staff I've ever seen in Germany as well as luxurious conditions. We had 5 people across 3 rooms and everyone was impressed. If I had one complaint (a minor one) it's that the young lady taking breakfast orders didn't seem to understand us very well and didn't always bring what we asked for, but it was close enough. Everything else was superb. Highly recommend.

This hotel deserves a 5 star rating just on the basis of excellent customer service. It is located 10 mins walk away from the center of Dresden, but the area around it is also pretty great. They have underground parking. The rooms are finished in an older style, but everything is super clean. The only con is if you open the windows, it gets kind of noisy at night with vehicle noise. The customer service aspect is incredible. They provided a turn down service, the person who did that went the extra mile and placed my luggage on the luggage stand, put a nice towel on the washroom floor. When checking out, the person offered me a bottle of water for the road. Small touches like these are absolutely incredible. They also had a pair of slippers, along with individual bottles for lotion, shampoo and body wash (such a rarity and breadth of fresh air when every other hotel puts gross reusable ones in the washrooms).

This is a beautiful five star hotel that offers unmatched service in a pleasant atmosphere. It so happened that they also offered unmatched prices for their rooms this holiday period of July 2025. I had booked a superior room which was indeed superior to any of the 18 hotels rooms I had lived in for the past 18 days of my roadtrip to the sub-arctic areas of Scandinavia from Switzerland, except that it opened on the inner court yard. There is everything you need for a comfortable life including a fruit basket and a Nespresso machine, and at 6 p.m. you will hear a knock on your door; it's the maid who arrives to organize your room for the night. After check-in you are offered a glass of well chilled crémant d'Alsace and if you are a cigar smoker there is a cigar room with plush English leather sofas in which youn can enjoy life without disturbing non smoking guests thanks to a potent roof aspiration fan. A nice bar and a restaurant completes the picture so well you do not need to go out to survive. Breakfast is up to the star rating with the best possible black teas, various egg dishes and good bread and freshly pressed orange juice. There is a lot to learn here for other hotel owners. Highly recommended.

This review is long overdue, but I am only now catching up on my reviews after months of travelling since February. This has to be one of my top five favorite hotel stays ever. When an establishment is great it delivers without pretentiousness. Everything hit the mark here, and without a big announcement. This is a stay for still elegance. I am in my late thirties and found the crowd to be more mature. No one is shouting anything. It was a nice five days of enjoying life in Dresden. The Room: I had a deluxe room. The bathtub was perfect, and I loved that they had Molton Brown soaps and bath salts. Also a proper hairdryer. The room overall was spacious, and relaxing with a decent minibar and thoughtful furnishings. Everything was the extra mile and noted. The Location: Just a short walk to Old Town, but you're right there. It was a great way to be centrally located whilst experiencing a calm only a few extra minutes tucked away can provide. The Food: The main restaurant provided an exceptional dining experience. I had the onglet (I still remember even now despite it being 7 months ago), the oysters, and a regional wine that I wasn't expecting to like but did. The bar made one of the best negronis I have ever had. On the weekends they had a pianist, and I am always a sucker for a piano bar. The atmosphere is relaxing, classy, yet chill. I only had the breakfast one day out of my stay, but the head chef who runs the operation makes it her world for those few hours. It was a wonderful experience eating and drinking there over five days. All the staff involved were lovely. With every glowing five star review, I want to offer some constructive feedback as someone who travels all over the globe. So two points: 1. The bed labelled as a king or queen bed was a conjoined bed that didn't remain conjoined at all. I would fall through the middle if I rolled over. If I come with my partner next time, this would be an issue; but honestly a solo traveller shouldn't have to deal with this either. For a hotel that has all their boxes checked, this was one miss. The bed shouldn't float apart. 2. The gym is really nonexistent. The machines barely worked, are old, and it feels like it's in a cluttered room as an afterthought. My suggestion would be to just admit defeat unless you are going to expand the area and / or upgrade the equipment. Get rid of the machines in this space and have a small stretch, yoga, meditation type area. This would compliment the spa area more than what is there now and make more sense to the image. I wasn't in Dresden for the gym so I didn't care much, but it's just an observation. Regardless of the two points above, I cannot imagine giving the rating of my experience of this hotel anything but a 5/5. I look forward to returning in a few months. The food, room, and atmosphere really made it a top experience in my travel history.

The location of this hotel is absolutely perfect, just a short walk from stunning churches and beautiful architecture, which made exploring the city very pleasant. Room was spacious and very quiet, had a great view and the bed was comfortable. We liked the designer furniture. Blackout curtains were really blacking out the room. However, the bathroom was a letdown. There was black mold in the shower, which is just unacceptable. The concept of having sliding doors that could open to the bedroom was nice, but in reality, the doors didn’t close properly, which made it frustrating to use. Breakfasts were disappointing. They were definitely not worth the price, the coffee was very bad and the selection of food was very limited, with almost no vegetables. Service was good, but we didn’t like that the receptionist invited us to park in the garage without mentioning that it came with an extra fee. We were surprised with this fee and we didn’t know about it until we wanted to leave. We would probably park there anyway, but it definitely should be more transparent. Overall, we liked the hotel, but the mold in the shower was a deal breaker. We wanted to stay longer in Dresden and ended up switching to another hotel instead.

Super disappointing. I booked a room with two beds which this hotel offered. That was the reason I picked the hotel over others. During check in I was told a larger group of people checked in and they could not honor the booking of a room with two beds. We were told they would upgrade us the second night and we’d have a room with two beds and we never heard back about it. The room was fine other than that it was not what we booked. The soap dispenser didn’t work and I requested a new one but only got refill soap with no dispenser. I shared that this didn’t help and they said they had no more soap dispensers. Hard to believe for a Hotel. The room was not cleaned until 4:30pm when we were getting ready for dinner which was another inconvenience. Spa area was nice. Breakfast had variety but nothing was great quality, very basic also the breakfast area was overcrowded. Would not recommend this hotel or stay again despite the great location and nice gym and spa.

Great place and beautiful and clean hotel. Had a decent breakfast and was in a great location. A/C could not go lower than 20 degrees so that made it warm in the room during summer but overall a great hotel experience.

We stayed two nights in this lovely hotel and enjoyed each moment. The friendly service, very well equipped and clean rooms not to forget to mention a delious breakfast for a good start into the day framed the visit of this nice town. The tram is close by, but a number of tourist features are within walking distance.

The location of the hotel is very central and you can walk to many of the city attractions. The rooms are alright but far from a four star hotel. The breakfast buffet is mediocre and the staff at the buffet were everything but friendly.

Right in the Altstadt. Short walk to Frauenkirche, Neumarkt, Zwinger, Brühlsche Terrasse and the Elbe, and also to the trams and shopping to the south. We liked our room very much, it had plenty of seating to relax in, enough room to move around in, and outlets for our chargers. Bathroom is nice, too. The beer, wine, water and juice in the refrigerator mini-bar is complimentary, and they restock it when they do the room. Breakfast is good enough and the staff keeps the buffet stocked. The staff is very helpful and friendly! There were a few steps to our room right before the door, and between the entry and the bedroom, but other rooms are more accessible. If that's an issue for you, be sure to ask about it. It wasn't for us. The steps in the room have subtle red lighting so you know where they are in the dark. My point is, sometimes you get a room and you think they never tried living in it, it's so poorly planned. This was not one of those rooms.

On arrival (15:00) my room wasn’t ready. Wifi not available, airco doesn’t cool, bar closed, restaurant closed and no lights in the corridors because they have computer problems. So. Great location in the city center.

The hotel was well located as it was in front of the train station. Made my travel easy as I had a heavy bag in tow. Public transport was practically at its door steps and it made our travelling to the various attractions so much convenient and easier. The rooms were clean and comfy. Staff were attentive and friendly. Special shout out to reception staff, Ms.Chenvako who made our check in seamless and provided us with all the necessary information. Always wore a permanent smile on her face, she attended to our various request and even provided us with free coupons for the public transport. The cleaninessof the rooms, exemplary services, and convenient location are what made our stay at the hotel fantastic and wonderful. We loved everything I highly recommend Intercity Hotel, Dresden for its clean and cozy rooms, friendly staff, serene atmosphere and customer service

Original review: DO NOT STAY HERE, THE MANAGEMENT WILL SCAM YOU. I booked this hotel for summer travel with friends and family due to the property listing saying air conditioning. None of the 3 rooms I booked had fully functioning air conditioning so everyone was constantly hot. I requested new rooms from the staff and was told that they will put in a ticket for maintenance to check the rooms. Maintenance never showed up once over my 3 day stay and the staff could not have cared less. I requested some type of refund for this obvious failure by the hotel, the management did not care about my concern and eventually stopped communicating. You can not list air conditioning as a feature if it is not functional in all of our rooms, that is fraudulent. Outside of the hotel are various groups of people smoking marijuana, drinking, breaking glass bottles, yelling, and playing loud music. We were constantly walking on broken alcohol bottles and trash outside the hotel. THIS AREA IS NOT SAFE FOR TRAVEL. The only good thing about this hotel is the close proximity to the train station and to shopping. Response to management: The management team has replied stating something about a gift card being offered. This never happened. I stayed there for 3 nights. Management did not speak to me a single time after the first night where I made the issue known to their staff. I was not offered any compensation for the disfunctional AC, I stayed at 4 other German hotels for 2-3 nights each during my trip (Cologne, Kassel, Gremsdorf, and Frankfurt) and their rooms would actually cool down unlike Intercity Dresden. The management has stated that a gift card was given to me a checkout??? That's a blatant lie, they may want to check their employee's pocket for the gift card because neither myself nor my guests were offered anything for the hotel's false room descriptions. If they wanted to give compensation in some form they should've done it through Expedia who I also filed a complaint with. The hotel management denied my complaint and refund request to Expedia and told them that everything is working perfectly, which is far from the truth. During and at the end of my trip, nothing was offered to me for the lack of functioning AC. The fact that the hotel management has lied about this shows that they should not be trusted and their property should be avoided.

A great hotel for a business trip. The location is excellent, just 300 meters from the train station. Unlike Frankfurt, this area is much cleaner and safer. There are plenty of bars, shops, and cafes nearby, and the Altstadt is also not too far away. The hotel itself has pleasant, fairly spacious rooms. However, my room wasn’t very clean; I found a hair that didn’t belong to me (and no one else enters the room), but I didn’t make a fuss about it. Otherwise, the room was acceptable. The hotel serves a pretty good breakfast, though the area is quite small, and during my stay, there were always lines for breakfast. Nevertheless, the staff handled it wonderfully.

Good decent standard business hotel. Quiet, not very busy, with restaurant/bar. Nothing special but also nothing bad. Good price and great location - next to the main train station, large underground parking and right on the edge of the city center. Walkable, a lot of stores everywhere.

Very bad service! An old man working at breakfast time mocked me directly on the face saying “haha it’s 10 o clock no more breakfast “ shrugging but were 9:55 and there was 5 people still having breakfast at that moment.. very sad that an human don’t give a fuck about another human; I’m paying for it! Very very bad service I don’t recommend it!

Great hotel near the main train station. Beautiful room, got nothing to complain.

One of the best places to stay, opposite the train station, close to the city center, excellent service

The room is clean and confortable. The breakfast is good and quite wide selection available. The parking lots underground are very tight. There is a good quality shower gel and liquid soap in the toilet, but there is no slippers in the room. Internet is fast and free. No laundry service available in the hotel.

The room was clean and the lady at the front desk was helpful by trying to contact housekeeping to see if our room was ready since we arrived before check-in time. Parking across the street was a cheap 6€ per night. The room was super basic, very empty, with no amenities (save for a tablet with hotel and local information). The tablet came in handy because we couldn't figure out how to turn on the ancient air conditioning unit. The A/C did end up working, but the controls are not clear and it was very weak. The location is just okay as it's a little bit of a walk into the city center. The room itself was expensive, over $200 for one night in their most basic room, and breakfast was over 20€ per person.

The hotel is a good choice if you want to stay relatively close to the city centre. The room is clean and quiet, the breakfast is amazing! I give 4 stars though because the WiFi is horrible and I couldn’t even work from my room due to the very slow network. I think it is not acceptable in 2024.

Actually at check in it was disaster. The lady had a chat either her friend was missing out everything, hot happy . Other guys later and in the morning were much welcome. Rooms are big but old fashion, and cold. Heating was starting snd working , but too noisy. Missed breakfast so will not comment. One of the not nice ones across Radisson group :(

Wi-Fi was extremely slow on the 5th floor and constantly drops to the point of being useless. It took the hotel 3 days to fix it. The staff is very helpful. There’s beer in the reception 24/7. It’s a little isolated and takes about 15mins to the old town and the cool bohemian neighborhood north.

Three star is too much for this hotel, at best it should be a 1 star hotel. First of all there is basically nothing in the room, not even a kettle. You don't get a bottle of water even... Also the INTERNET speed is disaster! I couldn't even open a website. The breakfast is ok. Location is nice. The rooms are quite spacious. The toilets are very dark with smelly showers. The staff are not the nicest as well (they forgot how to smile). All in all for its price it's not worth it at all.

We were only staying one night in Dresden, so not much time. The font desk staff were really good. On arrival, you need to obtain a pass to enter the car park. If you are on your own, it's a pain as you need to go into the hotel and get a pass. The street is busy, so it's not easy. The rooms are a good size and well finished

I stayed at this hotel for just one night on my way back home. It is perfectly located with immediate access to lots of bars, restaurants and entertainment. The room was clean and same applies to the bathroom. I wasn't happy with the pet fees (+30€ for a tiny dog!). But most importantly, the beds were quite small, definitely not king size. My kids (15 and 8) had an average night as they had no room in their tiny '2-people' bed. Another (bad) surprise was the breakfast, first time I had to queue to access the restaurant... which wasn't as clean as the rooms... And there was no 'warm' food, no scrambled eggs, no bacon...

Location, location, location, that is the strong point of this hotel right in the middle of the action and a 10 minute walking from the flix bus and train station. Especially in a city were uber and bolt don't operate. Whilst the lift areas and corridor are hideous, the room was renovated and a pleasant surprise, with a sofa, small chair, chair, table, iron and ironboard. Whilst the room is on the small side, it is more than enough to not be uncomfortable. WC spotlessy clean. First night there were noise, there were a lot of kids hosted on our floor, and drunk people knocked on our door. The AC first night seemed not to work, though this more hotter night is colder. Breakfast nothing stellar, but well organised. While basic, not bad as others reviews say. Overall we are happy we selected this hotel for the location, it made our time in Dresden much more enjoyable.

Holiday Inn Express hotel, Dresden. I have stayed worldwide in many IHG hotels. This one in Dresden is a good hotel. The room I was put up in was a standard room with a comfortable queen bed, spacious enough for single occupancy. Two people here would make it crowded. All the amenities in the room were well placed. The bathroom was good too, although a bit confining. Water pressure was adequate. Breakfast was very good and the staff were welcoming and smiling. Now the downers. The wifi was unstable with frequent disruptions. However, the wifi security was reported as strong - something rare for public networks. No slippers were provided, nor was there a safe in the room. The air-conditioning was worth the name only. I wonder how someone occupying the room in peak summer days will bear with such a pathetic aircon. And the worst, they don't provide any telephone in the room. How would one cope if an emergency arises? This one deficiency blots all the good things about this hotel. Recommended if you can bear with these deficiencies. I stayed in room number 220.

Hotel was okay. You get what you pay for and reception is not top but not bad. The rooms were clean and no concern. Breakfast was okay, north american like breakfast with sweet items (waffles and Nutella, chocolate croissant). There are limited healthy options. Dresden is small and this hotel is walking distance from everywhere you want to go. 10 mins from central area.

We stayed for a night, but we loved it,, must say how wonderful it is to have walking distance to everything,, our room was cosy and clean. As a big breakfast guy, I enjoyed every bit of it, and the restaurant staff were outstanding 👌..

Great location. Has a bar and the breakfast was good. We arrived early and room was ready. We only spent the night. Plenty to see and do with many restaurants and bars to choose from. Highly recommend.

The reception staff was really unfreindly and forced me to pay twice. She finally checked that it was the hotel‘s mistake however she never said sorry to us. It was the worst experience in germany. I spent more than 30 minutes for her wrong direction and ruined whole day.

The hotel is more of a good 3* in terms of facilities, definitely not a 5* Unfortunately, the room was in very poor condition - the toilet control did not fit, the curtain rail was peeled off, which made it difficult to shade, I was given a blanket with a hole in the bed linen. I reported everything to the reception, unfortunately I did not receive an apology. At the same time, I was told that they did not have a room to change - even though it was available on booking. Our room also had a view of the construction site - fortunately there was no noise from it during Easter. As for other hotel facilities, we used the pool. Unfortunately, not all the facilities worked here - jacuzzi, heating etc. At the same time, it happened that the sauna was not turned on or that the drinks ran out and no one refilled them. The only thing that seemed okay to me was the breakfast. But I wouldn't say it was fantastic, just up to the standards of a 5* hotel. Small variety of pastries, no spreads, no desserts... At the same time, I would expect that if you live near a construction site, someone would warn you. I did not find this information anywhere on the website before arriving, nor did the sales representative warn me over the phone. I would not visit this hotel a second time.

The hotel is a spectacular historic building not too far from the main train station. The walk from the station takes you through an interesting shopping district with lots of food outlets. The hotel itself is very quiet, very well equipped and the staff were extremely helpful and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was excellent, and there are several good restaurants within 50 meters of the hotel. The hotel is within easy walking distance of the main attractions of the city and the tram stops are close to the hotel. When we return I have no doubt that we'll stay here again.

Everything was perfect! The room was very clean and comfortable, although not particularly spacious. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and everything went smoothly during our stay. I gave one star less because of the location — there is no parking at the hotel anymore. You can still see the old parking area in the photos on Google Maps, but it no longer exists, as a new building has been constructed there.

Reserved a large king room, the room was still kind of small. The decoration is a five star hotel but the detail is like a four star hotel. There are signs everywhere asking for being environmental friendly. There’s no sanity supply, no soap bar. Coffee pod doesn’t have brand. Swimming pool is ok. Breakfast is good comparing to other hotels I stayed. Based on the price, it’s good.

Enjoyed my week-long stay here very much. Ideal location and a fantastic, attentive staff. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is very good (free as Bonvoy Platinum, but no room upgrade).

Stayed here in May 2025. The weather outside was cool and pleasant, but the rooms on the top floor of the building were quite warm. The HVAC could not keep up even during cool weather, so I would not want to stay here during the summer. Unfortunately the small single window in the small room did not really allow any air to circulate to cool the room down. The water in the shower awkwardly pulses hot and cold instead of maintaining a temperature. The location is excellent. Staff is polite and helpful, but I wouldn't want to stay here again.

The best thing was breakfast and restaurant staff. Reception staff needs serious professional training except Cecile and Anna. We reserved a ride through hotel to Dresden Hauptbahnhof the night before for the morning departure. Next morning, taxi was late, a female staff in black outfit, who seemed to be kind of busy, running around, wasn’t trying to help until Cecile showed up, and took care of our ride. Fortunately we made it in time for our train departure thanks to Cecile. Well the point is we counted on hotel staff to assist us with our travel plan, and running into a staff who is not as efficient and helpful as Cecile or Anna brought about an unnecessary unpleasant experience. Another issue was the maintenance quality, the AC didn’t work, the shower leaked, the fridge door turned loose, we managed to fix the fridge door but neither the AC nor the shower, so we had to move to another room. Dresden is absolutely lovely, and worth another visit, but probably not another stay at Gewandhaus “Autograph” hotel.

These are the amazing view I saw from my room No.119’s window. The location is in the heart of the beautiful old town area. This is the best place to stay in Dresden.

Nice room, nice breakfast, but I couldn't use HDMI-ports on TV for my chromecast due to some old hotel-OS, and there was only 2 english channels (CNN and BBC World)

We booked this place specifically because it was downtown, had parking, laundry, large rooms, and hardwood floors. Parking was full. Usually if this is likely to happen, the listing will say "limited parking", but it did not. There was no public laundry room. You could give your stuff to housekeeping but they wanted to charge per item, between 4-11€, which is an extremely high price for a full bag of laundry. We booked the comfort room plus, but they gave us the twin room, and said it would still be the same price. Supposedly they are allowed to give you a room with a higher ceiling and charge for a larger room. They said only the corner rooms look like the photos. The hardwood floors were very nice and it didn't have the usual hotel stink, but the pillows had a light scalp smell and there were a few small hair clippings under the blanket. Also, the hair dryer shuts off after about a minute of use and you have to wait 5-10 minutes to use it again.

Overall this is a good choice and I would recommend without reservation given price via booking dot com, excellent location for tourists, very helpful staff and size of room. There is an excellent, good value breakfast available in the Eiscafe at the bottom of the building as well as many other nearby restaurants so don't book the rate that includes hotel breakfast. There is a car park but it's very expensive and needs to be booked in advance. Order a P card from Contipark and park in the Semperoper car park for a fraction of the cost. There were a few very minor things that could be easily improved with slightly better attention to detail e.g. small area of skirting board not clean, loose handle on bathroom door missing the rose, insufficient cups and spoons. There was no compendium/hotel information obviously available, which was problematic because we had difficulties that needed to be solved by asking staff, which was annoying, such as the airconditioning/heating is totally unintuitive so we needed a lesson on how to use it and no one told us that it doesn't come on if the balcony doors are open. There's no kettle in the room - you have to ask for it but you wouldn't know to ask because it doesn't say anywhere what's available on request. We were given some ice as someone in our party had an injury but we didn't know that was available. Who knows how many other things we could have had upon request.

We visited Dresden at the cultural summer highlight - the Dresden festival Canalleto! The hotel is at the heart of the old town and is one hand distance away from all major sightseeing and the evening programme of the festival! We checken in earlier as our room was ready for us at lunch time with no additional hustle of a fee or eyebrow from the staff! The frienldy excellent staff at the registry desk accommodated us with all requests- from change of pillows to getting an iron for our clothing and in 5-10 minutes time! Our room was overseeing the inner court yard making this hotel peaceful and quiet paradise to rest amidst the night crazyness of the festival! Really happy with this hotel and its effective helpful staff ! Of course that comes at the corresponding price.

Amedia hotel is very well situated in the heart of Dresden. It has nice and modern style room and really good inner terace where you can sit outside but in the quite of the building block. On the other hand the price for all the amenities on hand or in the price is too high and was for us over the expectation. And we had 50/50 good and bad experience with reception attitude. We were eating out so cant say anything about the dining. So for the location great but against other hotels we have the experience with it is overpriced

The hotel is in a very good location but there were a number of problems with the room. The toilet paper is of the poorest quality, there are lights in the room you cannot turn off, the shutters/curtains are not blackouts, thin pillows, soap runs out easily and there was also building work across the street so difficult to sleep (although that was something out of their control)

Next to the church is a good place to stop and have a beer and light food before heading on to visit the church, museum and palace. Food is good but the service this time is not good at all and it is terribly busy sitting outside. Bus boy and girl’s service is much better… Sad. Of course still tip but not cool. Comes the food. The raw pork with onions, pickles and horse radish is awesome. Gotta try. The schnitzel with asparagus is very nice. The meat is well seasoned , tender and juicy even my wife can finish one herself. Hope they improve the service.

Great service, thanks for guy from Ukraine who recommended drinks. We recommend to take dark beer and beer radler. Duck was great, position is fine, not very big. Rolanda as well.Schnitzel wasn’t the best one with price 29 euro, unfortunately

Delicious food in a classic German pub environment. Excellent beer and wine, we really loved everything! (Beef goulash is excellent as well as the cheese spaetzle and baked potato with salmon). Only wish the pretzel was served hot :))

Because of the pleasant sunshine of the afternoon and the softness felt in the clear sky after the rain, the taste of dark beer was perfect for sunshine, temperature and humidity. The schnitzel and jam was a strange combination for me, but it was fresh, The sausages were not salty, but the potatoes that came with them were like soft velvet. I would much rather drink dark beer here than beer in Prague.

Really nice place in front of the cathedral. The food is awesome, the stuff is really nice and friendly! Aaaaand of course Augustiner beer perfect as always!! A small Bavarian place in the hart of Saxony 😉

This is an excellent restaurant in an excellent location in the heart of the Dresden Old Town. We were served by Luke, a very nice Vietnamese guy, who was very helpful by suggesting which beers we might like and which food to order based on the preferences we mentioned. All the beers were very good indeed, we’ll definitely come back for more! ( Erdinger Hefeweizen, Augustina Helles, Augustina Dunkel ). The food was superb too, we have a variety of sausages followed by a wonderful home-made Wiener ApfelStrüdel. Check out my photos, this was a really good lunch and we’d highly recommend it to our friends and you.

Had the pork schnitzel, which was quite good—soft, juicy on the inside with a nice crispy coating. Service was average, nothing special, but the location has a pleasant atmosphere. Worth a try if you’re nearby.

Really liked the ambience of this restaurant and their service. Tried their Schwein au pour and Suppe among other dishes.

The haxe was great! We also had the suckling pig, for me a bit on the saltier side, but overall good!

Delicious food and friendly service. With traditional accordion music played around, bring us good mood along the dinner.

We had a good time at this restaurant. The restaurant was full when we arrived, but we were seated quickly. They really tried hard to serve their customers. Other than that, the food was perfect, too. I have no doubt to recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Just awesome. Typical food with awesome atmosphere. Food is great, beers too! Prices are really worth it. I tried ribs and I was stunned by the quality of the sauce and meat. As for the restaurant you have old weaponry around as well as some old-fashioned dressed people wandering around: pirates too! Try it. It's really worth it. Definitely not a tourist bait, but legit quality original restaurant.

I'm from Singapore, first time visiting Dresden, and the food, service and beer are absolutely excellent. Might be the best suckling pig I've ever had.

Told , must have a reservation but then was led to a table and seated. The service was superb the food was great and the atmosphere was special. I will always put Pulverturm on my list whenever I return to Dresden. But will be sure to make a reservation first.

Did a veggie burger and Aperol Spritz for a late lunch. Very nice burger. Sat outside and enjoyed the view. Great place to people watch, eat, and drink. Really nice outdoor seating!

We came here because of a recommendation and the location is close to our hotel. The environment is really cool and we ordered the conductor's favorite plate which has all the famous local dishes. The food is good and the service isn't as bad as what some reviewers have experienced even though I'm Asian too. I would recommend anyone to come and we did enjoy ourselves here.

I stayed outside with a nice view of the Frauenkirche😊. I ordered capuccino and apple strudel. Not that spectacular but the price is surprising for not a great apple strudel and normal coffee.

Main con is the waitress didn’t even give us utensils. The dishes were finally out after maybe 20 minutes. Had to get her attention and ask to get utensils. Also when paying by card the waitress can’t get machine to work. I believe she selected wrong option in cashier machine because another waitress had to help her cancel the original input and redo, then the card worked. Decor is very interesting. Had a street car purported from 1898 in middle of inner space where ppl can actually dine in. Food was decent. I would recommend going here for the decor and atmosphere and the decent food. The service is probably dependent on who does your table.

Very good food, great atmosphere Child-friendly restaurant.

This is my least favourite place to dine in the entire Germany. First of all, the food taste was just okay. The service was average. Expect a crowded ambiance as it has large seating areas. Prices are in the higher range but it's understandable due to its prime location.

10/10 German restaurant. Will definitely dine here everytime I’m in Dresden!

Food was fine, nothing to get real excited about but you won't leave hungry. Our starter came with "toast" and I was looking forward to a hearty, rustic bread and got cafeteria white bread-rather disappointing. The dish was delicious but needed more and better quality bread. Salmon was good. I would try other places before coming here again.

Good hearty food and a pleasant lady serving us. For an 11:30am early lunch we shared a goulash soup, and a Pork Schnitzel- both were very good, and the beers too!

The menu leans heavy, so if you’re after something light or refreshing, this might not be the place for you. The food was good, not mind-blowing but comforting and well-prepared. The main downside was the long wait, almost an hour for the food to arrive, which felt a bit too much, especially for dinner. On the plus side, the space is generous, both inside and outside. The terrace is heated, and they even have blankets available, which makes it a nice place to linger on colder evenings.

This is my favourite restaurant in Dresden, every time I go I leave satisfied both from the food and the well cordinated service. The prices are a little higher than I would expect but justified considering the central location.

Very nice traditional German restaurant, cheap prices and kind staff. I recommend if you want to try good local food and beer.

I tried to visit this restaurant tonight but I was actually turned away at the door. In my entire 62 years of living I've never been turned away from a restaurant before. The woman who greeted me at the door was both rude and dismissive. I told her that I was dining alone and I think that was my death sentence. She said I'm sorry we're full. I asked, can I wait? She replied, no and then she just proceeded to completely ignore me. In my opinion this is the worst kind of business, one that prioritizes money over service I guess. Not only will I never visit this restaurant again I will make it my personal mission to ensure that I let the there's no about the type of service that I received.

The atmosphere is amazing, the lighting, decorations, the seating areas are nicely spaced and cozy. Friendly kind staff. The burger tasted fine and didn't live up to the high price. The other dish was tasty. The prices are very steep tho. Location in the centre is a plus

Vibrant, quirky, and full of artistic soul. Each courtyard surprises you with its own unique theme, from singing drainpipes to colorful mosaics. Worth a visit if you love art .

Fantastic place - it was surprise for us to see something so interesting, like that, in the new part of the city. The old sightseeing is always good - I mean castles, Rathäuser, etc. But you can find things like that in a lot of cities. But this quarter is something, like you can see only in few places in Germany. Like!

Interesting but better for summer time I think, it was empty and many closed shops

If you have no other specific place to visit and in Dresden for long stay, visit this place. I suggest not to visit if you are in Dresden for a day or two. There differently decorated buildings. Good for instaworthy photos.

Not too impressed, I have to say. Two colourful houses that's about it. The shops are quite trashy and overpriced because it is mostly hippie stuff. The neighbourhood reflects this "Kiez" style, go vegan posters everywhere, graffiti, stickers, really dirty and neglected vibe. Beautiful art nouveau houses and hallways are vandalised. Students and Ökos live here. In Berlin this would be hyped to oblivion. In Dresden, not sure if this fits the local vibe. If you value art, culture and a touch of sophistication you should avoid this place at all costs.

It was dark when we went and there was not enough lighting, so although it was not very clear, it is still a passage worth seeing.

Quirky and diverse part of Dresden “Neustadt” dotted with colorful buildings, open air art displays and creativity all around

The place is original and pleasant, with friendly and polite service. The food, however, seemed average to us: the fish fillet and roast beef were, in our opinion, too salty, and the portions a bit small for the price. On the terrace, the presence of numerous flies also partly spoiled the meal.

The glowing reviews for this place really speak for themselves. We decided to stop by without a reservation, hoping to get lucky and thankfully, we did. Despite being fully booked and having to turn away several walk-ins, the kind lady behind the bar managed to find us a small, cozy table. From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, especially the woman who greeted us - always smiling and attentive. The food was excellent. My girlfriend ordered the asparagus risotto, which was absolutely spectacular. I chose one of the daily specials listed on the boards - a burger. It turned out to be a fish burger.. Now, a quick note: I don't like fish. Yet, in what I can only describe as a true testament to the chef’s skill, I finished the entire dish and would gladly order it again. It was that good! All in all, this place exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere.

The food is fine - not great but not bad. The server was so rude to me I almost cried - honestly I can’t recall being treated so rudely in a restaurant in my life. She completely ignored me while actively providing pleasant service to the tables all around me. People who came an hour after me were served before me. The server walked around and asked other tables if they were enjoying their food but didn’t speak a word to me. She cleared my plates without speaking or even looking at me - she seemed to be trying to avoid eye contact. It’s true that I don’t speak German but I am polite and patient, and she was speaking fluent English with other tables, so I don’t know what the issue was. For context, I arrived at 7:00 and had to flag down her colleague at 7:41 to finally order food, which reached my table at 8:15… the same time as the table beside me received the same dish that they had ordered at 7:55. When I went to pay I was asked if I wanted to leave a tip. For what? The manager said that the poor service was because they were busy… but apparently my server was only too busy to help me yet had exactly enough time to provide good service to every other table all around.

It’s a hidden treasury in an alley! Food is appetizing. I had the pesto dip with bread basket and kohlrabi soup as the start, and picked one of their daily specialty dish (#5 as shown in the photo) - Duroc pork chop (Kotelett vom Durocschwein), which was just amazing! Unfortunately I was thereafter too full to try any of those famous jars here. Overall great food, ambiance and service at Lila Sossea (Soße), which is also tourist-friendly for those who can only speak/read English.

We came here randomly during our two days in Dresden and we can now definitely say we love the “young German kitchen” that Lila Soße has to offer. The atmosphere is very nice, sitting in the kunstpassage with its mosaic murals. The food was incredibly tasty and home-y, leaving nothing to be desired. While we only had beer, we did see they had a great wine list too. An absolute must visit!

We had wanted to try this restaurant for a while and finally we managed it for a summer dinner. The location is nice inside the Neustadt but not directly in any of the big streets, but in the Kunstpassage. We only tried dishes out of the day menu and they were fine. I particularly had the zucchini-mushrooms tart and it was slightly too salty for my taste. We would be interested to try things out of the regular menu the next time.

Fabulous place in quirky alley with changing Daily menu, food was exceptional

Food might be authentic (we won’t know) but to us they were average at best. Service was below average. We had to go to find our waitress for everything we needed. The restaurant wasn’t even busy, just 2 tables when we were there 🙄. Nice rustic decor.

2025.10 Reservation is highly recommended for this restaurant. We arrived without a reservation before 6 pm and were told that no indoor tables would be available until after 8 pm. We were able to get a table outside in the backyard right away, but our order took about 40 minutes to arrive. We tried the pork knuckle and schnitzel; both were decent, though nothing spectacular. Note that the pork knuckle is large enough to share between two people.

Review update Nov. 7, 2024: Back in Dresden, and since the response of the management was so nice, decided to check the place again. And I’m happy I did! Within the week, I visited twice and can say that the food and vibe are still awesome! And the service is exceptional!! Pleasant, courteous and efficient. Back to be my favorite place in town!! One recommendation: since the weather is colder now, and obviously the outside seating is out for the season, I recommend to make reservations! As seating inside is limited, and getting filled up quickly. Let me start by saying - I love that place! I love the food, the atmosphere, and that it feels like an authentic German restaurant/gathering spot, and not a tourist trap. I’ve been there maybe 7-8 times, and as an American, I ALWAYS tip the waiters (15-20%), although I know from my German colleagues that in Germany a tip is appreciated but not required. With that said, I was very surprised when my server felt it is needed to state that the price doesn’t include a tip. That was the first time ever in Germany that I was told something like that. In fact - it happened the last 3 times I was there (served by the same waiter) that it happened… I feel that if I was local - he would never say that. That upsets me, and when you’re going to enjoy dinner, you don’t want to be upset. That caused me to skip going back now, and that saddened me, because of that server I won’t be back… I do want to add that the other times, other servers were very nice, attentive and service was great! I hope someone from management will see that and will get that delivered and explained to the servers… or maybe the wrong is on my end?!

We popped into this restaurant without a reservation. The staff were kind enough to find us a table. In general, they were helpful and had a nice attitude. We ordered two soups and three schnitzels and asked if they could bring my kid’s food out with the soups. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen, and he had to wait around 40 minutes for his meal. The soups were very thick, and the potato soup was overly salty. I asked them to change it, which they did—though I suspect they just diluted it with hot water, as it came back completely tasteless. I ordered a “winter version” of schnitzel, though the menu didn’t explain what that meant. It was described as schnitzel topped with chicken ragout, mushrooms, and served with fried potatoes. Unfortunately, the ragout didn’t pair well with the schnitzel—it made everything soggy and unpleasant. The Worcestershire sauce used in the coating was overpowering, and a large portion of the schnitzel was burnt. In some parts, there wasn’t even meat—just oily coating soaked in sauce. The fries were clearly frozen, not the delicious pan-fried potatoes with bacon that we were expecting. The vegetables on my kid’s plate appeared to be from a can. I won’t be returning, and the two stars are only for the staff. The food reminded me of the overly salty, greasy, and unbalanced flavors often found in Turkish-Italian fusion spots—places where an Italian kitchen is run by non-Italians, serving something that looks Italian but lacks the balance and subtlety. Like when you order a pizza and they’ve added kebab on top—completely overpowering and out of place. The schnitzels here gave off that same extreme, unbalanced, salty flavor

This place is so good we ate there twice in 4 days! If you’re a fan of blood sausage or pudding you must order it here. We also tried the roulade and bratwurst. Great atmosphere with cozy old world vibes.

Great menu with a large selection of delicious meat dishes. The food served looked very good, large portions, average taste. Waiters were friendly but inattentive and overwhelmed. We needed a lot of patience to be able to order something else, the table was not cleared for ages and we had to keep asking to finally receive the bill.

It was really busy on a Thursday evening but the friendly staff found us a table after only a few minutes wait. The service was excellent, the atmosphere wonderful and the food was exceptional!

The other reviews seem very generous. We had high expectations of the pork schnitzel as the highest recommended dish, but it was a disappointment for us and for the price. Very average plate, the potatoes and breading were quite good but the meat and veg were like you can get anywhere from frozen. The solyanka soup was quite delicious though. Beer on tap was okay, nothing special. The service is very friendly and the pub is beautiful. Maybe the schnitzel chef had an off day.

What a delightful local pub! Decent schnitzels too, probably not up to the hype but still good.

This place is a true gem. Local favorite and can also be enjoyed by visitors. Excellent service and the the local food specialities are always good 👍 👌🏻. Cozy and original vibe. I've been here six times in 7 weeks and the the quality of the food and friendliness of the staff was always on point. I think that speaks for itself. Don't miss out on this unique Dresden food and drink experience

Delicious schnitzel! Best I've had in all of Germany. Really good value too. Huge portion, comes with potatoes and side salad. Would really recommend, cool setting too, some antique furniture and electronics.

Delicious and such large portions! I split a schnitzel and half was plenty. Everything had great flavor. The service was great. The decor is old fashioned and well done. It's very cozy. Google has it as $, but I'd say it's more like $$.

Good food, portions are big. The staff is very nice and they have have good beer. I recommend this place 👌

Great place to eat Authentic German food. You enter the place and it feels like you are in the living room of the German grandparents. It's very cozy. The staff speaks English. I recommend the Sauerbraten dish. It's delicious. Of course, try the German beers Freiberg Pilsner and Coschurz Pilsner.

What a nice little surprice always it is to come here for a good burger and drinks. Easy order plus great fresh made drinks. You can decide plenty of different style and taste. Good chips last time too. Burgen is larger than most other places around.

Best burgers we ever ate so far. Had the Camden Town, nicely presented, absolutely delicious!!! And the Crazy Goat for me (I always go for the goat cheese burgers), and it was perfect for my taste. Goat cheese, bacon, cranberry jam. Boy, oh boy! I tried their elderberry cucumber dill lime lemonade (🤷‍♀️), also very good, I recommend. The place is nicely decorated, and wasnt full, although all the tables had a Reserved sign on them, we were seated right away. The theme is surf and it makes you feel like its summer and you’re at the beach. The staff was nice and very prompt, everything was clean. We will definitely come back, perhaps even tomorrow, as we has our eye on other dishes, too 🙈.

It was recommended to us by our friends, and we definitely don't regret it! Absolutely enormous and supreme delicious burgers! Very kind and welcoming service. We're definitely coming back when in Dresden.

Food prepared with a lot of seasoning, variety of hamburgers of good size and flavor, different types of potatoes. The cocktails are also super tasty and prepared with good quality. The place is very nice and pleasant to go with the family and also with friends to hang out, have a few good drinks and enjoy a good atmosphere and good food. The prices are affordable and you can get to the place quickly as it is located in the best known neighborhood of the city.

I ordered the HOLY $HIT burger and regretted it: too many jalapenos. You can't taste anything other than pepper. At the same time, I love spicy dishes, but this is clearly too much. The beer was good. Staff service was average.

Delicious burgers and super friendly staff. The place is well decorated and there are more than enough options to choose from the menu. Definitely recommend going here for a bite during your visit in Dresden.

Everything is delicious! The price definitely worth it! Best fries ever. I'll definitely come for the "fries before guys" promotion. The staff is super Friendly, if you don't speak German, don't worry, you'll have a great time here! Plus, you can pay with card (;

Pleasant interior, very beautiful inside. Good cocktails and desserts. The food was so-so — overly salty. I'm also giving a lower rating because the waiters looked messy, wearing old T-shirts and sweatpants. Waiters represent the restaurant. Even if they didn’t look good, they still did their job very well☺️

I really enjoyed dining at this restaurant. The lamb chops were delicious, and the cheese cake baklava was very nice too. The service was professional and friendly. 5 stars!

Nice place with good grilled seafood! Fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Worth a visit if you’re into seafood.

The food is great, some of the best greek food I've had in Dresden. We had the chicken souvlaki and pita mix, and both were top notch. Portion sizes are also good. The menu has many other interesting items so we will be visiting again to try them all. The restaurant has a nice and cozy atmosphere, along with good service.

Not a very good experience. For two people we waited 1.5h for appetiser, even more for the main dishes (gyros), which were clearly not freshly made as they were barely warm and really nothing special, under seasoned greasy meat with bread and rice. After waiting for so long we had to ask them where our food was and then they realised they made a mistake and finally brought out the dishes. They were quite polite but clearly really confused because we saw them mix up many orders, supposedly as the server explained due to the kitchen messing things up. Shame, because the overall ambient is nice.

Very tasty food and very friendly service. All in all a great restaurant.

Amazing Greek food and outstanding service! We had a fantastic experience at The Loft Restaurant & Bar. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — truly authentic Greek cuisine at its best. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Well done to the whole team — we’ll definitely be back!

My daughter was looking forward to get a specialty Matcha Latte, unfortunately it’s not possible to sit there if not reserved in advance. As I promised we bought one to go, unfortunately walking outside in rain didn’t make the experience great. Service was slow due to waiters being busy, but the guy serving us was quite friendly. My warm Matcha Latte was unfortunately one of the worst I had so far. It tasted only like lukewarm milk with a hint of some flavor. Every Starbucks serves a better one, maybe not the same quality but definitely better taste…. Not worth going and wasting your money!

Espresso affogato was nice but not amazing. The vanilla ice cream used was a little crystallized. And the latte foam was a little cold on top but tasted great. Overall this is a great spot!

Our first meal here in Dresden and the Eggs Benny were delish! 👌💖 I loved my Mango Matcha & my partner's Cold Brew were very good. Happy they have oat milk and the mango matcha was a very intetesting, I liked it! Very nice atmosphere. Was a bit confused by the reservation signs on the tables but the staff were nice about it and spoke good english.

3 days in Dresden - 3 amazing breakfasts in Urbean Neustadt😁 Every option I have tried was excellent! The place is neat and very friendly 🤩

Everything felt calm and cozy, perfect for an easy morning catch-up or quiet coffee break. Pure comfort in every sip and bite. ☕🍰

Atmosphere is nice, especially small garden. But, it is not nice when the garden is empty, they are directing you to inside for only coffee. If all the places reserved or full, I could understand that. Except this behaviour, I like the place (decoration and ambience) a lot.

Had an amazing experience couple weeks ago at Urbean! The food was fresh, flavorful and beautifully presented. Super friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere made it even better. Highly recommend — can’t wait to come back!

The castle inside was not open during Sunday. We entered the garden and looked around the nearby Elber river. It is located sidebby the riverand so beautiful view.

Not friendly at all. We got yelled by a lady that works there… seems to me is catering events only. Not much to look, the other castles to the east are far better maintained.

Very nice location in late evening, since there aren't many people at that time of the day. Castle is great and the greenery makes a nice frame for it. There is a Biergarten where you can grab a bier. Totally recommend it.

Nice castle, beautifull parck with vieuw over Dresden. A short walk to the castle nextdoor with restaurant with terrace on the Elbe river.

Nice "schloss" (better palace ?). Free entrance to the huge park. Easy to reach (tram 11) and an unexpected panoramic view of the Elbe and the city. The dried grass (like rest of the city) should have a better maintenance.

One of the most beautiful buildings of late Classicism in Dresden. Check their website for events and guided tours. It is more than amazing!

Ok but nothing really special at least from the outside. Walking paths after rain are very muddy.

Nice room, clean and quiet, I think it’s a culture thing here that the curtain isn’t completely blocking sunlight. Shower is strong and with hot water. Staff are very nice and friendly answering my questions.

Buyer beware, new ownership only seems to care about profitability. They do not market the size of beds they have in the property but other sites represent king size beds. This property only has single-sized beds (seperated or next to each other) and queen size beds. This property also only has single size duvets. No refrigerators in the room. No kettles in the rooms. Air conditioning works mediocre at best. At night they do not turn the lights on in the hallways so it just feels creepy. Be prepared for housekeeping to just knock on your door and open your door, no matter what you're doing inside. After compound of events put me in a bad mood I elevated this to a complaint with management. To which I was offered an insignificant discount, and at that point I was over it, tired of wasting my time, ruining my mood and just left to be done with the situation. What's ironic is that I'm half German and after my experience at Occidental Dresden Newa, I couldn't wait to get out of Germany and have no desire to go back.

I stayed at Occidental Dresden Newa and had several disappointing experiences. First, there was no Wi-Fi in the room during most of my stay, which was very inconvenient. I needed it for work, and if I had known about this problem, I would have chosen another hotel. Second, the laundry service was only offered per piece, at about €6 for a single shirt — not practical for longer stays. Finally, the hotel never responded to my email regarding a partial refund. On the positive side, the breakfast was very good. Overall, poor communication and the lack of essential services made the stay disappointing.

Awful experience....checking in and out process very slow...staff don't seem interested. No kettle in the rooms. Car parking is awful, we were sent to different car parks by different staff...no one new that roads were closed so we went round in circles ending up back at the hotel 3 times before we were sent somewhere else. We were a large group each with 8 cars between us and none of the group could find the car parks....very stressful stay.

Nice hotel close to the station and tram stops. The room was nice, although I found a bit weird the shower in the same room… Breakfast was excellent with many options

The room was moderate size, but comfortable overall with a large window and a lovely view over the city. Great choice for breakfast.

Fantastic location, room with the comfortable bed and magnificent view on the town. Really good selection for breakfast.

Awesome place with tasty food, though quantity could have been better

Super restaurant. Everything was well cooked. The waitress was really enthousiastic and smiling.

Very good Burgers

Good service, great burger

(Translated by Google) Clear recommendation! Very friendly staff, very good fresh cuisine, nice location and not a bit snobby. The staff is young, friendly and obviously enjoys working there. Without exception, all of the dishes tasted very good and the prices were more than justified given the quality. Keep it up! I'll be back! (Original) Klare Empfehlung! Sehr Freundliches Personal, sehr gute frische Küche, schöne Lage und kein bisschen versnobt. Personal ist jung, freundlich und offensichtlich mit Freude dabei. Die Gerichte haben alle ausnahmslos sehr gut geschmeckt und auch die Preise sind entsprechend der Qualität mehr als gerechtfertigt. Macht weiter so! Ich komme wieder!

(Translated by Google) We are absolutely thrilled! We celebrated our civil wedding at No. 13 with an a la carte lunch followed by a small cake buffet. It was absolutely delicious, the organization and planning were easy and seamless, and the staff were incredibly welcoming! We highly recommend the venue and the restaurant and will definitely be back! (Original) Wir sind absolut begeistert! Wir haben im Nr 13 unsere standesamtliche Hochzeit gefeiert mit Mittagessen a la carte und hatten anschließend ein kleines Kuchenbuffet. Es war super lecker, die Organisation und Planung war einfach und problemlos und das Personal super herzlich! Wir können die Location und das Restaurant nur weiterempfehlen und kommen definitiv wieder!

(Translated by Google) Very nice atmosphere. A little under-seasoned and unfortunately there is no salt & pepper on the tables. Otherwise a nice little restaurant with very friendly service. Definitely recommended. (Original) Sehr schönes Ambiente. Etwas zu wenig gewürzt und es steht leider kein Salz & Pfeffer auf den Tischen. Ansonsten ein schönes kleines Restaurant mit sehr freundlicher Bedienung. Auf jeden Fall weiterzuempfehlen.

Large park in centre of Dresden which acts as an oasis of calm. Although there is plenty of green space there isn't a great deal to see. Park is flat and is popular with cyclists. You can get to park by the tram on the main road.

A place full of peace and nature in the middle of Dresden. A park to ride a bike, meet friends for a picnic, you can rent a boat in the small lake. Love this park.

Beautiful park with a mini-railway for Kids, a lot of flowers and cafes to spend a good time in nature. Recommend!🥰👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

We went for a morning run in the beautiful Großer Garten. It's a perfect spot for outdoor activities, located just near the center of Dresden. The park features well-maintained plantings, magnificent large trees, fountains, flowers, walking paths, and of course, a stunning palace right at its heart. The Dresden Zoo and a miniature railway are also located within this vast park. We ran from the Altstadt around the Palaisteich pond and back, making the morning run a comfortable 5+ kilometers. You could easily do a 10 km run in the park without retracing your steps even once. A truly wonderful park!

Really nice place for a stroll. Open 24/7

Gorgeous park. I highly recommend it.

Walked around the park before having coffee and cake. Garden moving into its winter jacket.

Apparently, one has to ask very nicely for the room to be tidied and replacement teas and coffee provided. Next time, I'll bring a sleeping bag and bivvy bag.Sorry, Raddy B, but I have had better service in a youth hostel.

A hotel that smells very, very, very bad. Of course, the bar, restaurant, and exterior are very impressive. But as soon as I opened the door to my room, everything changed... A musty smell, shabby walls, and dirt. Spiders live in every corner. Also, if you want to sleep with the windows open, be aware that at about 5:30 in the morning the irrigation system will turn on, which is very, very, very noisy (you can enjoy it in the attached video). But not only will the noise prevent you from getting a good night's sleep - the pillows are of the worst quality I've ever seen (you can see in the photo), they are so thin that they look like a rug (but that's why...). I was also very impressed by the fact that a hotel of this class could not afford to include 1-2 bottles of plain water in the room price (this is the first time I've seen this). Even in the cheapest hotels, water is a must have! So, don't bother buying it in a store, or at the hotel bar. By the way, the bar is great!!!

It's a very decent hotel, clean and tidy, the bathroom was modern, so was the bed frame, the Philips plasma TV was proper to the room size (not too small yet not too big), there was free tea and coffee with mini sugars offered next to a tea kettle in the room, which I think was a nice gesture. Nowadays it's not a standard given by a majority of hotels. It might give you a 90's vibe at first, but as a millennial myself I'll say, who doesn't love the 90's? My room ended up being modernised, contrary to the reception's decoration and first impressions. Honestly, I personally prefer having a nice comfy, clean room with fresh towels in a hotel whose lobby and corridors not super modern, than to have a sloppy room in a super modern hotel. I really enjoyed my stay, as I was in town for business and it was a great last - minute option for me. What was a bit unusual to me at first, was that I had to walk a long way from the reception lobby to my room, and by that I mean: first, one enters the main building (where the reception, the restaurant & the breakfast buffet etc. are located), and then you exit this building towards the back, where there are several individual buildings with many rooms each. I found it odd because I was tired when I arrived, but in next morning it was refreshing walking towards the breakfast. There's a nice garden and fountains in the middle of these buildings, which I imagine must be very pretty in spring and summertime. The young gentleman at the reception was very helpful and kind with all my requests and questions.

This is a 4 stars in the heart of Germany, but the room they put us first was what you can expect from a 2 stars in Pakistan: broken forniture, chipped walls, Honecker style moquette. The second was a bit better but... a cockroach was in the table close the bed. Breakfast was good

Huge hotel organized in different villas and main building with a garden in the middle. The place looks like a typical hotel franchise, the garden is well mainteined, overall seems very clean. The breakfast has the standart menu for a star hotel, with ham, cheese, egg, pancakes, coffee, tea, croissants and a few more perks. The service is not particularly super friendly, rather pragmatic. Well located in Radebeul.

The hotel staff were nice. The hotel was a bit far from the city center. Breakfast was great, and the service was good. We requested a firm pillow and, later, ironing facilities, and both were brought within 10 minutes. Our room on the first floor was quiet, but our friends on the second floor were woken up by the sound of rain. We bought a bottle of water there for 7 Euro 🫠

Very dated. Tv had no connection. Breakfast was not fresh, and for the price, it's crazy. Tried room service and the ceasar was wilted and chicken overcooked. Would not recommend

Great hotel. Superbe service and room. Top bathroom with amazing shower. Bedding top. Amenities top... Towel super top and big. Well, all top. Fast check in. Convinient parking (12€ per day). Amazing breakfast. Few points to look at for management : staff over caring for breakfast. They stand near the steps to access big breakfast room and are too present. You feel observed while having breakfast and it's not too nice. Scrambled Eggs too cooked and industrial. KO for a 4*

Seriously the CLEANEST hotel I have ever stayed! Not even kidding! And I travel a lot.. Please let your housekeepers now that this was very very nice. We are so impressed by it. First time in my life, I took a bath in a hotel trusting its hygiene.

A nice hotel located close to Dresden Old Town, with beautifully classic style décor and very very very clean rooms!!!💗💗💗 However, sorry to say that the service might not be as good as what you’d expect from a typical star-rated hotel. The reception staff are not very helpful and tend to refuse assistance lol!😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 This happened to me personally since we had clearly booked a large one-bedroom room, but the receptionist gave me a twin instead and refused to change it without any clear reason. The next day, when I asked another receptionist, they finally switched me to the correct room according to my booking request. Like…🤷🏻‍♀️ Also at check-out, we asked for help bringing our luggage with a trolley, but the receptionist stated that it wasn’t their job and they weren’t supposed to assist with that. Thanks for being helpless!🙋🏻‍♀️❤️‍🩹

Really good hotel in Dresden, i liked it. Briliant breakfast. Nam...

Great value for money! 15-20 minutes to the Old Town. Good parking under the hotel €12, we parked in the street as it was weekend and free. Nice cosy bar with snacks available following our return from the Semperoper. Highly recommended!

Excellent stay. Wonderful service. Good location.

Nice clean and quiet room. Delicious breakfast buffet and a very good staff at breakfast and reception.

The hotel was everything we needed. The room was clean a good size and the beds comfortable. Our room looked out on to the main road but was very quiet. The breakfast buffet had a lot of choices and was plentiful. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to the old town so was perfect for our 2 night stay. All the staff were friendly and we enjoyed drinks in the bar area. We had no complaints and would definitely visit again.

Stayed for a long weekend on a May public holiday. Hotel was busy, but the service was still excellent. We didn't mind the 5UR charge (per adult, kids are free) to use the spa and pool as it meant it was nice and quiet. Breakfast was busy but the staff were doing an amazing job of clearing tables and keeping the food topped up. Sunday was quieter than Saturday. Will stay here again the next time we are in Dresden.

The hotel room was okay: not very big but clean with functioning gadgets. Beds were not that comfortable though. Service at the hotel is really worth improvement! The cleaning staff members knocked at the door early morning TWICE (around 8am and around 10am again) and opened it without getting any response. I really did not feel comfortable experiencing it. Note: it happened on the date of departure BEFORE check-out time (12 o´clock). A receptionist even did not ask during the check-out, if we enjoyed the stay... Breakfast would benefit a lot from natural juices (orange, apple...), pastry for vegans, salmon and many other things, which I guess are now standard for a 4* hotel but were just not there. Many meat options offered at breakfast are limited to cheap pork (be that sausages or cold meats). Spa area was a total disappointment. It is shared with the people attending a gym nearby and kind of loud. Two saunas are quite small and so is the pool. Worst thing, it smelled so bad (gasoline) in the area in between the spa entrance and the garage area, which are both located in the basement floor, that I got sick -((( Overall, we expected better service, more variety at breakfast and a relaxing spa experience for the price in this location.

We had a wonderful time with great service. A big special thank you to Renata from the front desk! The location is very convenient , tram lines directly in front, the Great Garden (an enormous and beautiful park, with lakes and a very cute train track) and the Hygiene Museum and the VW manufacture round the corner. Only two stations away from the historical city centre. Only four stars for the room: the furniture is a little tired and the mattress was super hard ... The Aqua Loft was superb!

Good hotel. Has the basics right. Service is good. Breakfast is good, also for vegan food. Location also good. Fitness accessible next door with very extensive facilities but at extra cost (5euro).

Location is great, but rooms feel dated. Breakfast was fine. With some hot food to choose from. Lady at the reception was unfriendly. Did not even say hello.

Very good location, comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The place is very clean and beautifully maintained. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The rooms were spotless, and the beds were very comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant and relaxing stay.

I really liked the hotel, parking was just next door, great location, friendly staff and it was pet friendly. The room was very quiet which was great. I didn't like that there was no power outlet next to the bed. That could be improved.

Room is clean and neat. Perfectly adequate for any business traveler. Front Office staff tonight was excellent, so that was good as well. What’s less than stellar though is the hotel can not prepare an invoice if you booked via Booking.com. Where other hotels find ways to still help us business travelers out with a proforma to get our reimbursements easily, we here need to run after booking.com. Not a huge deal, more than inconvenient and mildly infuriating after a full day of driving and meetings. Room to grow here.

Room is clean and quiet with good soundproofing -- it is right next to the train station but sleep is not affected especially if window is closed. Staff are polite and helpful. Next to Mitte station also means extra convenience, eg taking day trips out. Room is well equipped and is of decent size, with enough space for a couch. Option for not having rooms cleaned is available, to support sustainable tourism. Am happy to return to this hotel in future if the daily rate remains competitive.

Very comfortable hotel and on a short distance to city center. Staff is friendly and helpful. The one thing I miss is the fridge in the room.

A beautiful hotel with great value for dollar. The hotel staff are incredibly friendly and helpful! The hotel is conveniently located in Dresden Mitte. The rooms are modern, clean, bright and very comfortable. I highly recommend booking an extended stay.

It is a very good hotel at the downtown. It is not exactly located in the very city center for business travellers like me it is ideal. There is a big car park next to it. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Rooms are also excellent. There is a bar and restaurant at reception floor. It looks very nice. Price & quality wise very good.
