10 Top-Rated Bed and Breakfast Inns in Dresden, Saxony

April 26, 2023 Jeremy Dunfee

On the banks of the lovely Elbe River, the German city of Dresden is lush and green, filled with forests and gardens and parks. The city is rich with cultural and artistic history; the great operatic composer Wilhelm Wagner debuted a number of works here in the 1800s and, today, an independent light opera company keeps the classical art form modern and fresh. Culture vultures will love the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister and Grünes Gewölbe museums, and architecture buffs will salivate over the mélange of styles reflected in the cityscape.

Excellent staff, nice, large spotless rooms, with a mexican theme. You do have to share the bathroom with one other room, but I never saw that as i real problem. Stayed there for three night, and will return next time I visit Dresden. For 7,5 Euro you can have a fine breakfast buffet, I did that one of the days.

Cramped and hot attic like room is a “ Standard Double”? Should have complained and packed up the moment we walked in

Reviewed By maywill

The 3-night stay at this facility put a dent on our otherwise wonderful visit to Dresden. We chose this hotel based on great reviews and location (we were on a road trip and wanted to avoid a congested area), and confirmed their Standard Double room, the only type available at the time. We were surprised to learn that our room is a small and plain room with low ceiling and tiny windows that looked like and attic, quite different from the photos and descriptions from their listing. The room got so hot, we had to run air conditioning almost continuously, which is rather unusual in Germany. Furthermore they added 2% extra to the room charge because we did not pay in cash nor via EC Card.

Villa Freisleben Aparthotel

The enchanting villa in neoclassicism style with numerous Art Nouveau elements is located in Dresden's elegant residential area Blasewitz and has direct access to the Waldpark - a 23 hectare large park with beautifully landscaped paths. Guests at the Villa Freisleben can experience a piece of Dresden city's history. The prestigious villa with park-like garden was built by the architect Hans Paulick on behalf of the Freisleben family in 1916. The second world war and Dresden's night of bombing was without prejudice to the villa . In the early nineties and under compliance of strict monument protection regulations, the building was sumptuously renovated by the owner and opened as Aparthotel Villa Freisleben in 1994. Numerous lovingly refurbished details in the interior and exterior of the villa, recall the fascinating architecture of the Art Nouveau. The stucco ceilings attract attention just as magically as the stained glass windows in the former music room. An Eye-catcher as well is the 90 -year-old wall fountain from original Meissner ceramics in the lobby, which originally had its place on the first floor. In the years 2010 to 2014, the villa has been restored in some areas by the present owner and upgraded technically and visually. You can find these unique pearl of architecture of the early 20th Century in most books on Dresden's villa architecture.

A great location and comfortable stay close to the TU/Uni

Reviewed By TunbridgeWells1

This hotel was recommended by the university and never disappoints. A beautiful spot, with comfortable rooms, very clean, helpful reception team, and delicious breakfasts. At reception, they are always happy to assist with recommendations and maps. I've stayed there over and over in the last 9 years and have never been disappointed.

Hexenhaus

Situated only 3, 5 km away from Dresden's old town but also at a rural neighbourhood, the "Hexenhaus" welcomes you with 10 individual rooms and a small restaurant at the historic village centre of Nieder-Gorbitz.Because of the poor conditions long time ago, and the remote location, the charm of the village has been remained until today.The "Hexenhaus" is listed as a historical monument and consists of two very rarely over 200 year old half-timbered day labourer houses which gives you the unique opportunity to experience the geneses of Dresden.Here you can find everything you need after an eventful day:Quiet, relaxation and good Saxon cuisine.Enjoy our hospitality-we are looking forward to your visit!

Very fine

Reviewed By Barry22260

This is a very atmospheric place to stay. We were lucky in that we were in the Hexenhaus itself, although they have a number of other properties. If you are in one of these you still have to go to the main property for breakfast. Our rooms were excellent with a sitting room downstairs and the bedroom above. Clean and comfortable, on a note of caution, the shower base is very high from the floor, making for a large step down. The food, however, is superb and I would recommend dining in. A marvellous place and I hope to return one day.

Alttolkewitzer Hof

The Hotel is located in east Dresden, in the district of Laubegast. Each guest can admire a marvelous panorama of the meadows near the Elbe River, the embanment of the opposite river bank with a television tower and the "blue miracle" - the bridge over the Elbe River. The 24 Hotel rooms are comfortable, furnished in a rural style and so they make the guests feel particulary well. All the rooms equipped with a bathroom with WC/shower, hairdryer, phone, WiFi, TV and a minibar. You can reach the Dresden city museum and the historic Old Town, as well as other museums and culturally interesting places within 15 minutes going by tram, without the need to search for parkingspace. Wanderers and nature lovers can visit the Saxon Switzerland after only 30 minutes drive. The world- renowned Bastion, fortress of Königstein and the national park Saxon Switzerland are just a few examples of the many places worth seeing or visiting, also on boat trips, while Biking or hiking.

Friendly and clean

We stayed there for one night. Traditional German-styled hotel. Our room was with a big balcony. Room was comfortable and clean. Big yard to sit outside. Friendly staff. Only good words to describe this place!

Consigliato se si vuol spendere poco

Reviewed By Massimo M

Appena si entra, ci si trova dentro ad un punto tamponi (covid test), quindi, il primo impatto puó essere spiacevole, ma in realta, dietro la tenda si nasconde il dormitorio. È esattamente come visto nelle foto: 8 cuccette in legno abbastanza spaziose e comode; cucina dotata di solo microonde lavelli per pulire le stoviglie; presenti un bagno con doccia e una doccia extra. Tutto molto pulito. Ottima inventiva del proprietario, che ha creato tutto con bancali. Forse siamo stati fortunati, perché degli 8 box disponibili, ne erano occupati solo 2 compreso il nostro.

Gaestehaus Am Weberplatz

Too many negative things

Reviewed By Matthew S

The hotel is fairly close to central Dresden and the Grosser Garten, but has lots of free car parking. Although the basic price was quite low, I was still disappointed. I'll be returning to another hotel that I've used on two previous visits to Dresden. 1. Breakfast was expensive. At €13.50 each, there should be hot food provided (not just scrambled eggs). 2. The wifi is terrible. It is slow, and times out repeatedly. My daughter (a UK student) was lucky - she had a login for the university network across the road! 3. The city tax of €9.20 per person per night is also a LOT. 4. It is not possible to walk between floors because the keys only work on your own floor. We had two rooms on different floors, and could only meet by using the elevator. What's the point? It clearly hasn't made the place more secure.

Quiet, Cute, Quaint Hotel

Reviewed By sanschutz

More of a bed and breakfast than a hotel (which is a nice thing!). Cute hotel and neighborhood that offers a very easy and quick tram to old town highlights. The breakfast at this place is AMAZING! Probably the best breakfast I have ever had in Europe, and it is organized such a way that other guests were taking pictures of the breakfast.

A strange experience - Basil meets East Germany

Reviewed By c_stenild

Good price, nice room, fine food. What's not to like? Well. We were a group of ten persons on our way to Denmark from Austria on motorcycles, mostly policemen. At arrival the receptionist, let us call him Basil, greeted us with a "Do you have a reservation?" - No welcome here - We confirmed. He denied this and when we pointed at his monitor on our names he switched the monitor off! - After a little while he found our reservation. Basil also did this for 3 others. Very rude. The wheather was nice and we placed us in a corner of the patio, where another company was celebrating something. Waiting to order a beer. Basil came and told we could not sit there. We had to go inside! I looked around and saw there was a small empty patio across the yard, which looked very little used. I asked if we could sit there. "No" was the answer from Basil. I asked why not and he answered that it was only for regular residents! We told other (nice) members of the staff, that we would like to order food. We could only order at Basil. It took 45 minutes after our request that Basil showed up. I recall the same level of service back in 1980 in East Germany, sadly something has not changed. An important part of a stay is the experience, which indeed was ruined by one person.
