"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...

Holiday Inn Express Dresden Zentrum by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Room was very clean, not super big but good enough for a few nights stay. Stall was amazing thought our stay!! Breakfast was really good and the free luggage storage was very helpful in the day that we checked out. Location was amazing and very central, only 10 minutes way from the train and bus station. Would definitely recommended it and stay here again if I come back to Dresden."
