The hotel has impressively modern rooms, but they lack practicality with no space for toiletries or relaxation. The noise from the operating tramway can affect your stay, yet the efficient noise-reduction windows help. The service is friendly but had some initial hiccups. The location is a major benefit, close to key attractions and transport links. The dining experience offers diverse and tasty options, although at times limited. Overall, it's a stylish choice with some drawbacks to consider.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was very uniquely designed and spacious, especially the huge bathroom, but the furniture felt claustrophobic and not very practical. The air-conditioning was a relief in the hot summer months, but the noise from the passing tramway was quite disruptive.

Staying at this hotel was like a journey back in time to the East Germany of the DDR, with very pleasant rooms featuring large windows that bathed the room in daylight early in the morning. The terrace provided a lovely spot to enjoy fresh air while having breakfast. The location was extremely convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the old city, making it easy to explore all the key sites in Dresden. The dining options, though a bit pricy, offered abundant and great quality food every morning.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were spacious, modern, and nicely decorated with a beautiful view, although they were not soundproof, so it could get a little noisy in the mornings when the cleaning personnel started working. The service was initially lacking, with three people mostly standing around but eventually became helpful and friendly. The location was convenient, just a few minutes' walk from the City Center and with good accessibility to the tram station. The dining experience could have been better with a richer menu, although the complimentary bread was a nice touch.
