Top Altstadt Dresden Hotel Reviews

Star G Hotel Premium Dresden Altmarkt

10/10 Excellent

"Good value for money. Great location within a nice historic building. Comfortable bed and good sized bedroom. The only weird thing is that the showers don't have a door and what's worse is that there is a mirror right in front of the shower."

Holiday Inn Express Dresden Zentrum by IHG

8/10 Good

"Holiday Inn Express in Dresden is really close to the heart of the City centre. If you like to walk then you love staying here. There is no Holiday Inn Express parking only public parking is available and finding an empty spot was a challenge. Once you found a spot, paid for your time, you were good to get up and go and explore this beautiful city. The breakfast in the morning had a large variety of menu items, which was appreciated. We found the rooms to be euro efficient with space and size."

Hotel Taschenbergpalais Kempinski Dresden

10/10 Excellent

"Had a proper chic and wonderful night at the Kempinski in Dresden, the rooms were refined and the service was spot on, just as you’d expect from a baroque palace. From the elegant vibe to the attentive staff, it was a lovely stay and I’d happily go back."

NH Collection Dresden Altmarkt

10/10 Excellent

"This property was clean and the bed was comfortable. My room faced the courtyard, which let in a lot of light and had the benefit of being quiet. The room was large, with a desk, safe, and small refrigerator. The only negative I had was that the lobby had a very strong smell of cleaning product. Thankfully the room had no smell at all, which was great. The breakfast is fantastic. And the location is wonderful - close enough to everything to easily walk to the sites, but just far enough removed to not be noisy. If I were to come to Dresden I would stay here again. And when I go elsewhere I'll check out the NH Collection if it's available."
