We stood 01.-03-05.26 in Room 033. The room was very annoying. Climate control not yet working, despite asking for it at reception. Opening the window was de-facto impossible, as the smoke and discussion noice of all these smokers direct in front of the room went straight into the room. The smell of the smoke was really frustrating and created a bad feeling about the hotel and especially the stay in room direct located near-by the smoking area.
In general, everything is fine and I regularly visit the hotel. There was just one issue: the different weather conditions in times of climate change. If you ask your visitors to keep the windows closed (to keep out insects), you HAVE TO enable the air condition depending on the weather, not on calendar dates. A number of room windows, such as mine, are exposed almost plainly to the South, and this weekend, there was full sunshine with temperatures up to 28 °C. Given the small size of the rooms, they heat up pretty quickly. There needs to be a way to cool them down, even before the end of May. Apart from that, everything was fine, as usual. Thanks go out to the staff working there.
The hotel is beautifully situated in the heart of Dresden. The room was wonderfully appointed. The design is great, using every possible space in a room wisely. It would be good to have body lotion available. It's a simple plus that completes the shower experience. Also a big note of thanks to Felix who provided such useful tips to the city, everything from museums to restaurants. He's knowledgeable and enthusiastic and picked up quickly on our interests.
Room, even if not so large, are good. Breakfast limited and breakfast location not good
Nice staff, good rooms :-) Kind regards to Lisa at the Bar, she has been great!
Everything was perfect!
This dog room 302 seemed a little smaller than the last one. Very little room to Move.. but great service , good bar tender and breakfast ladies. Happy with parking and everything in general.
Great hotel, welcoming staff, super location.
Already asked and called several times to receive an invoice. Promised ever time to send out, nothing happens. Terrible front desk service
super
Been always a pleasure to stay in your hotel especially Palaisplatz in Dresden Neustadt. Workers are nice. Would be nice to have buffet there in the evening with live music!! If you ever want to try, I’m a Cook and Professional Singer too and can entertain your people. Just give me a try.The location is very cool and can attract thousands of people!.

Motel one was situated near the train station so took minutes to locate. The room was spotless however it didn't offer tea/coffee facilities but I didn't ask reception if they supplied a kettle
- the room was over all very nice and clean, though there were some spots with dust (dust-threads on the ceiling, some corners). - the breakfast was good, all standard things were there, nothing extraordinary (I'm personally a fan of warm breakfast, but I understand, that this is potentially logistically challenging) - I had two sets of towels in the bath, even though I only needed one set as I booked single. This could be improved for sustainability, if the service staff knows which rooms are booked single or double. - On the topic of sustainability, I liked the option to foregoe room service. I also like the (now standard) notices about optionally not changing the towels everyday. I did not experience whether you actually follow those (most other hotels I have seen those notices at, sadly did not). - I liked the fireplace on the TV when I came into the room, it made it quite cozy. - If it is not a fire hazard issue, decoration in the staircase (paintings or similar) could invite more people to take the stairs instead of the elevator.
Good location
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.
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”.
