Alles top.
Overall excellent. Only two things which could be improved: 1. wooden floor in the room instead of carpet. 2. offer in addition a „quick breakfast“ (coffee and croissant, or similar)
We enjoyed our stay at this perfect place with super friendly staff, great breakfast. From this location, all important hotspots of the city can be reached by foot. If you want to visit Dresden, this Motel One at Zwinger is the place to be. The booking was quite easy via the Motel One app, I changed later by e-mail our check out date with friendly hotel staff.
Great location in Neustadt, marvelous Kästner-related design, love the lounge.
Super
Alles okay!
Perfect location, in walking distance to sights in the old town center, to REWE supermarket, bakery, many restaurant. The hotel has a very nice and contemporary design with a great lobby and bar. The rooms are very nice and clean, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. We had the perfect stay!
Once again, Motel One delivered as expected. Exactly what we needed. Will return to Motel One Dresden. Thank you.
Alles super.
Nice receptionist, still good value room, cleanliness, like a lobby style atmosphere.
Second visit to the Motel One In Dresden - friendly staff, great design and unbeatable location!
To bad there was no breakfast on 5th of September...
A great place. Nice atmosphere. Super-nice staff. Very clean. Very central you couldn’t ask for more.
Another lovely stay here! Nice room on fourth floor with view of the Zwinger (as requested, many thanks). Friendly staff at reception and in the bar (special thanks to Sven for very friendly service). Our favourite Motel One.
nice hotel but I missed eggs and bacon at breakfast
Super Hotel.
During late afternoon: not enough staff available at the bar, waited almost 15min to order a ‚quick‘ coffee… Other than that it was a positive experience ant to be recommended ;)
Super gut 👍
We had anu excellent stay at this super modern design hotel, situated a few minutes from the main sights in Dresden and serving a delicious breakfast. We enjoyed in particular the extraordinary handicap friendly room, including the bathroom specially equipped for disabled persons
A modern hotel featuring nicely decorated rooms, a comfortable bed and excellent shower, superb location, and warm, welcoming staff.
Great location and good style, parking options. Room is small (though we took the bigger option), not very convenient, parking expensive, rates very high during bigger events, and the immediate charging policy (not shared by other MotelOne‘s!) is odd—whatever the extra service (garage, breakfast, etc.), you need to go to the desk and pay first…
Friendly and helpful staff, perfect location
Nice hotel, very good beds. While I understand that the breakfast area can be too crowded to allow dogs, not every dog likes being left on its own in an unknown environment.
Top Hotel
I had a pleasant stay. All good.
We loved our stay. Everything was just right. Great location, staff, room and value for money. We will definitely return.
Modern and nicely designed hotel. Small but efficient room. Friendly staff, not always right away available at the reception. We found parking relatively expensive, especially when you use your car halfway your stay. For no clear reason back entrance closed after 22h although in clear view of reception desk.
Rezeption, Bar gut, Zimmerservice: na ja
Clean efficient well located and cool 😎
All hotel workers were friendly, very welcoming. They were always ready to support us. They were kind even in the breakfast or in the bar during the night. This made me very comfortable.The ladies working in the reception helped me even for carrying the luggages.
Wie so oft davor - best choice in Dresden!
Great staff, Clean and comfortable
I had a great stay. The staff was friendly, the room pleasant, and the breakfast was really first class.
Mega!
I love motel one.
Excellent central location. Parking garage is perfect. Nice clean rooms, good atmosphere. Breakfast was a little chaotic. Coffee was not so lovely unfortunately.
Everything was perfect.
The location was perfect for us - a quick walk to anywhere we wanted to be (Alaunstrasse, Hauptstrasse, the Elbe). Rooms were very comfortable and quiet and staff were helpful and friendly.
Staff friendly and helpful. breakfast healthy and plentiful room clean and well kept Lovely ambience- loved the outside seats!
This hotel was a wonderful place to stay! The staff was very friendly and helpful, the location excellent and the parking lot was terrific! We enjoyed the breakfast and the atmosphere in he property. WE will definitely recommend this hotel to our friend who visit Dresden.
In-room amenities were great, personnels were great and lastly as I am coming to the hotel for the last 2 years, I would like to see "omelette" in the breakfast.
Check-in was smooth, but no one offered me a bottle of water as advertised everywhere. At the bar, they mistakenly charged me for an extra beer, but unfortunately, I noticed it too late.
The Dresden am Zwinger is the perfect location when visiting the city and the patio is perfect place to relax after a long day of sightseeing. The staff is helpful and friendly; the rooms are clean and comfortable. Motel One has become my favorite place to stay all across Europe.
rooms and bathroom are small missing fridge missing boiling kettle
war alles super :-)
Thank you, as always everything was fine
Very nice room on high floor with view of the Zwinger, as requested, thank you very much. Very friendly reception staff.
This Motel One was in a wonderful location in Dresden. It was the perfect home base for me to explore this wonderful city. The staff was friendly and attentive. The room was perfect and as expected. I even had a great view! This is my second stay in a Motel One and I know it won't be my last!
As always, we had a very pleasant, comfortable stay at the hotel. We will be returning for another stay next March.
Excellent in every category EXCEPT the only thing I really missed was a simple Nespresso machine. There were times I would’ve killed for a quick espresso before rushing out to my meeting.
Switch on. beOne.

Dresden
Discover the magic of this baroque city
Did you know that Dresden has held the nickname ‘Florence of the Elbe’ since the early nineteenth century? Experience the beauty of this city from our design hotels in Dresden, and you will see for yourself how accurate this name is. Our Motel One incorporates the stylistic influences of the baroque city to offer you a home away from home. You can look forward to ultra-comfortable divan beds, lounge furniture made from excellent materials, and warm-hearted staff.
The capital of Saxony has many baroque and Mediterranean-style treasures; even its art and culture is reminiscent of its Tuscan sister city. Air raids during the Second World War nearly reduced Dresden to rubble; the extent to which its architectural heritage has been restored is highly impressive. Today, Dresden combines its historic charm with the joie de vivre and vibrancy of a modern, lively metropolis. Fancy a trip to the Florence of the Elbe?
Budget design hotels in Dresden – your Motel One
Dresden offers a plethora of sights. Its highlights include:
- the Semperoper
- the Zwinger palace and museum containing Raphael's famous Sistine Madonna
- Dresden Castle
- Brühl's Terrace
- the splendid Japanese Palais on Palaisplatz in the Innere Neustadt district
- and, of course, the Dresden Frauenkirche, the reconstructed symbol of the city.
These sights are just a small selection of all that Dresden has to offer, and they are located within comfortable walking distance of our city-centre hotels. After your cultural tour, countless cafés and events await you in the trendy parts of town. And don't miss what locals lovingly call the “blue wonder”: the bridge over the Elbe connecting Blasewitz to Loschwitz.
Speaking of bridges: despite its romantic name, the Waldschlößchenbrücke (“bridge of the little forest palace”) cost the Dresden Elbe Valley its UNESCO World Heritage status. With or without a title, the cultural landscape with its iconic meadows is extremely picturesque.
For more days out in nature near the hotel, head to the Saxon Switzerland National Park in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. Its bizarre rock formations are an excellent destination for a daytrip to the famous Bastei Bridge, for example.
It comes as no surprise that Dresden is an extremely popular destination for short city breaks or weekend trips. The Saxon capital is bustling with visitors all year round: even in the winter, the baroque city enchants its guests. They especially love the famous Dresden Stollen, a fruit bread sold at Striezelmarkt, one of the oldest Christmas markets in the world.
Dresden is most certainly a city anyone should experience. If you are looking for an affordable hotel in Dresden, the design hotels by Motel One are the perfect choice. Book a room and meander through the streets of “Florence of the Elbe”.
