Hartenstein Vacations from $1,365

Pleasant to walk along the Elbe into town.

Hotel service was fantastic

Good staff knowledgeable and not far from the city i will be back again, good hotel, only thing is parking is a mission

The Hotel is situated outside the city centre but perfectly connected to public transport. It feels safe and is very clean. Staff are friendly. Downsides for us: bathtub/shower very slippery, shower curtain sticks to everything and the water temperature fluctuates. Would still recommend and we will be back.

Stayed for one night because my husband had a business meeting in Pirna. March is clearly off season - a great time to enjoy the gorgeous view of the Elbe River in peace and quiet. Our room was spacious and clean, with that gorgeous view and a huge balcony. The bathroom had enough room to keep our toiletries in there. I really appreciated the extra magnifying mirror and ampel towels. Dinner in the restaurant was delicious. Traditional local specialties, full meals and snack options. Enjoyed a glass of the local wine while soaking in the soothing river view. The main dining room has a great small collection of Saxon Switzerland art. The next morning we savored the nice hot and cold breakfast buffet served in the medieval breakfast room. The hotel staff was very understanding, and let me store my bag there while I used my free ferry card (included in room price) to cross the river for a shopping walk around historic Pirna. Plenty to see and do, and lovely cafes and restaurants. Already planning our next trip.
