Hotel berhampiran Baum & Wolle, Dresden

This hotel is located on the central square in the old city. The front desk staff is wonderful, very patient in making suggestions. One young woman, maybe Sina, helped me with a birthday dinner. She quickly understood the sort of place we wanted, suggested Lila Sosa, which was the perfect choice for us. We had a problem with the bathtub in our room. There was no tub mat and the tub was quite slippery. An accident waiting to happen. They upgraded us to another room for our second night, installed a portable grab bar and a tub mat. Breakfast was excellent, ample and fresh. Staff was great. Would definitely return again.

We changed to this hotel at the last minute and I'm glad we did. The location is excellent (opposite the Green Vault museum - well worth a visit), and the buffet breakfast was very good - well-stocked, with lots of hot options. Best of all was the executive lounge which came with our business category room. The lounge had a great range of beer, sodas (we loved the rhubarb soda,) and cheese, bread, ham etc at 6pm, plus an excellent selection of coffees - it was a lovely place to hang out rather than head to a restaurant. Our room was large - as pointed out in several reviews, the sink area is 'open-plan' but the shower and loo are behind closed doors! Dresden was only a pit-stop for us on a long European trip but we were so glad we made the detour and to this hotel. (NB: the spa/sauna area in the basement is good but the sauna is 'textile free' - ie nude - which was a shock to these UK travellers!)

Il Penk è un hotel moderno che sorge a 15 minuti a piedi dal centro storico. L’hotel ha una connotazione forte, determinata dalle opere artistiche che sono disseminate un po’ ovunque, con grande concentrazione soprattutto nella hall. Le camere sono piuttosto comode e spaziose, così come il bagno che per tipo di rivestimenti risulta però un po’ old style, quindi avulso da tutto il resto degli ambienti. Molto buono il buffet sia a colazione che a cena. Sala ristorante molto luminosa, circondata da grandi vetrate e con un bello spazio esterno. Unico neo la pulizia delle camere che viene fatta solamente ogni 2 giorni. Nel complesso sistemazione molto buona.

Wir sind mit Freunden und Eltern für 3 Nächte eingecheckt . Ich habe bereits vor Monaten per Maul geschrieben, dass ich wünsche, dass die Suiten nebeneinander oder in der Nähe sind . Leider hat das nicht geklappt, obwohl wir schon 13.30 Uhr da waren , und der Check in erst 15 Uhr war . Man zeigte kein Interesse , das zu klären. Nachdem wir unsere Suiten beziehen konnten , wurden wir von dem jungen Mann darauf aufmerksam gemacht , dass wir sofort bezahlen kommen müssen ( 3 Paare - 6 Personen ) . Wir haben bei Buchung unsere Kreditkarte als Garantie angeben müssen und konnten nicht verstehen, wieso wir sofort zum Bezahlen antreten mussten . Nach der Bezahlung begab ich mich in die anliegende Felix Bar , die dazu gehört . Dort bestellte ich Getränke. Als ich bezahlen wollte , wurde ich gefragt , ob ich es auf unsere Suite schreiben möchte. Darauf antwortete ich , dass ich doch gerade so dringend alles bezahlen musste bei Anreise . Ich habe dann die Getränke in bar bezahlt und bin nicht mehr mit unseren Freunden in diese Bar gegangen. Zum Kaffee …. Ich habe im Voraus per Mail gefragt , ob wir die Kaffeekapseln im Zimmer haben . Daraufhin wurde mir gesagt , dass es reichlich davon in allen Sorten zur Verfügung hat . Wir hatten eine xxl Suite mit 2 Schlafzimmern zu viert und hatten Teekapseln und nur 2 Kaffeekapseln im Zimmer - ein tolles Frühstück 🙈 Wir haben dann im Rewe um die Ecke selber Kapseln gekauft . Das Zimmer wurde die ganzen Tage nie kontrolliert, Müll war voll , WC Papier reichte nicht usw … Sehr schade , die Lage ist toll, die Einrichtung in Ordnung, aber das Personal ist ungeschult und total unmotiviert. Wahrscheinlich sind das Mitarbeiter der Bar , die dann nebenbei ein wenig an der Rezeption sich vergnügen.

Sehr gute zentrale Lage, (kostenpflichtige) Tiefgarage in unmittelbarer Nähe. Geräumige, moderne und saubere Zimmer, gutes Frühstück und sehr freundliches Personal. Einziger Kritikpunkt, wenn man es überhaupt so nennen möchte, mehrere Aufzüge wären wünschenswert, da man teils sehr lange wartet.

The information is a bit misleading, the hotel is quite agood bit out of the town centre. Probably a 25 minute walking quickly. We, both 80+, needed a taxi to get to the start of the hopon-hopoff bus terminus. We only discovered when we arrived that the resuarant was not open due to alterations. Fortunately the very helpful receptionist ordered us a takeaway pizza and sugested we relax with a beer until it came. She was the first of a succesion of charming staff we dwelt with. Our room had good hanging and shaelf space but somehow did not strike one as being well designed. The bathroom on the other hand was. There is no fridge but has tea/coffee and kettle. We had a blocked basin, a handyman arrived very promptly and cleared it. There is a marvelous backery and coffee shop across the road in the Rowe Building, and a small supermarket. For a great evening meal and a wonderful view ask the hotel to book you a table at one of the restuarants in the Yenidz. The old cigatte factory almost next door.

Hotel was very good, nice service, a little bit small room for 2 persons, and we have heard the bells of the cathedral located in front of the hotel, even we had a room facing other side.

Pros: -Rooms are all quiet and ours overlooked a small park outside. -Nice cocktail bar and breakfast in lobby offered if you just want to relax. -Staff was very kind and attentive. Housekeeping was very pleasant and did a great job in the facility! -Short walk to central Dresden for a great price and newer hotel. Cons: -No laundromat in building or very close by so we ended up washing some clothing in our sink. -Breakfast is a bit pricey by German standards for this market. Would recommend going down the street a few blocks to grab some danishes, yogurt and fruit at the Rewe supermarket and enjoy in their small eating area instead.

Ein sehr spartanisch, im Jugendherberge-Stil, ausgestattetes Zimmer. Im Hotel wird noch umgebaut. Baulärm war nicht zu hören. Die Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig. Die Betten sind bequem, das Hotel ist sehr zentral gelegen und sauber. Frühstück hatten wir nicht gebucht. Fazit: Als Zwischenübernachtung oder ein Trip nach Dresden geeignet, für einen kompletten Urlaub würde ich ein Hotel mit mehr Comfort vorziehen.

This is an outstanding hotel. It is located across the street from the train station, but is incredibly quiet. The place is immaculate and the interior design is very well done. The hotel was remodeled in 2021 and it looks brand new. Staff was very attentive and fluent in English. The room was decent sized for a European hotel. We were able to leave our bags in the hotel after checking out so we could tour Dresden before taking a train out of town. It's one of the nicer hotels we've stayed at in recent years
