Nicer than I expected! Great bar on site with food as well. I got breakfast there rather than getting the buffet. A 5-minute walk to the Neustadt train station. The wifi and AC were both excellent.

We chose this property for a two night stay in Dresden because it was within walking distance of all the major sights and had a parking garage. The staff were friendly but checkin took a long time. This seems to be a common issue at Motel Ones as we had the same issue at the Berlin-Alexanderplatz. The room and restaurant were bright and clean. Breakfast was very good with a wide variety of food. Decaffeinated coffer was availble but only as instant - disappointing. Nevertheless, I would stay again.

A good budget hotel. There is no staff to check you in—you do so at a kiosk outside of the hotel and it prints out a key for you, so be prepared to handle that. Once you check in it’s absolutely fine—clean and well kept; you can come and go as you please.

Good value, excellent location

Very good budget hotel. Excellent location. Seems new and is very clean. The rooms are minimal, but we know what to expect from this chain. Downsides (1) it's hard to take a shower without soaking the bathroom floor. (2) At check-in, the credit card machine gave me an option to pay by EUR or USD - without thinking I hit USD (I was tired from a long trip) and immediately incurred a 4% surcharge on the crooked exchange rate. I realized my mistake within one second but it was already too late. (3) having to decide on breakfast time at check-in is a bit rough.

Very, very nice hotel in a good tourist location. This facility is fairly new, in the Euro-modern style, and is clean, comfortable and well-appointed. Nice bar, great breakfast buffet, and friendly staff. Very close to the Hertz car return and main train station, and a little further to the old town.

No reason to complain

This was a fairly typical European hotel: perfectly adequate but smaller rooms than in most U.S. hotels. There's a pleasant lobby, free wi-fi, and a bar. No restaurant in the hotel. Located on the Neustadt side of the Elbe river, it's about a 20-min walk over to the Altstadt where most of the historic tourist sites are. Breakfast is not included in the price of the room. It is a substantial continental breakfast, whereas the other hotels I stayed at in eastern Germany offered eggs, sausage, fruit, etc. in addition to breads, cheese, and jam.
