"Das einzig positive ist die Lage des Hotels ansonsten habe ich mich nicht wohl gefühlt kam mir vor als hätte ich ein Hostel bzw Jugendherberge gebucht Ausstattung sehr alt Schimmlige Fugen in der Dusche Geschirr nach dem Frühstück mussten wir selbst abräumen Beim Frühstück wurde aus der leeren Schüssel die Garnitur mit bloßen Händen rausgenommene und in die neue Schüssel gelegt und nochmal ordentlich ausgekratzt und in die neue Schüssel rein…. Ich werde dieses Hotel definitiv nicht weiter...

Top Dresden Hotel Reviews

Hampton By Hilton Dresden City Centre

Hampton By Hilton Dresden City Centre

8/10 Good
"Free breakfast was excellent. Location was perfect for sightseeing. The room was very hot. The staff never came and cleaned our room in 4 days despite us leaving the please clean room sign on the door every day. We had to go to the front desk to ask for fresh towels and toilet paper. We booked a room for 3 but towels were only provided for two. The shampoo and conditioner were almost empty and as no one ever came to refill them we had to go buy our own which wasn’t a huge deal but inconvenient. The shower did not drain well and was on the bring of overflowing after 5 minutes of showering."
