Enjoy some time out from concrete-filled cities at Lake Birkwitz. This is an ideal place to get some fresh air, slow down and soak up the views.

This body of water is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Pratzschwitz. But Lake Birkwitz isn't the area's only highlight. Pillnitz Castle and Park, Dresden Elbe Valley, and Grosssedlitz Baroque Garden are some other interesting sights nearby.

Far from Dresden central station. Taxi from Dresden train station to hotel is €30. We decided to take the tram after check out. We're lucky people walking around showed us the way to tram station. Nice hotel but there's no ac.

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,001 reviews)

Stayed for 2 nights. Property is a bit older, but most of it is still in decent conditions. Price is good for the value. But: My main 2 issues: Internet is extremely bad. Gym is in same building and looks amazing, but it is 5 euro per day, which was not as advertised on expedia. I had 2 stays booked but changed hotel for these two issues The reataurant is quite nice with nice staff. Hotel is close enough to ammenities ( altestadt is walkable, the soccer stadium is walkable and ther is a grocery store a couple of minutes walk. Overall, if you dont care about a bit older hotel, bad internet and don't use the gym, this could be a pretty good hotel for you

8.4/10 Very Good! (960 reviews)

Clean spacious hotel rooms with good breakfast and easy parking. Friendly staff on site and close to autobahn. We had a short stay here and although it is quite out of the city we drove 15-20 mins to the Joynext Arena where there is loads of free parking. Then it's a lovely walk along the river to the centre in just 2k (20 mins) we wanted to use the ice arena at the Joynext arena anyway so worked out really well for us. No tea or coffee machine in room which was a bit disappointing but the bar/restaurant downstairs has good coffee so not the end of the world. We unfortunately didn't have time to try the spa but we would stay again at this hotel.
