If you had ever wished upon a dream... and wanted to stay in a castle while traveling in Europe, I…read morecan highly recommend Schloss Eckberg in Dresden The castle was old world, with modern conveniences. Tastefully decorated, delicious breakfast, a welcoming plate of chocolates in the room - couldn't ask for a more romantic stay. While off the beaten track a bit, the U-Bahn was less than a 10 minute walk and easy to get around on. The staff at check-in were helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly.

We stayed in the attached Schloss for a weekend and it had incredible views…read more The food in the Schloss itself was delicious, a tad pricey, but worth it for one night. The service is 5-star and prompt. The wine they paired with our meal was delightful and bold. The outdoor patio was beautiful with the flowers and green garden area with a beautiful statue nearby of a female. The beds themselves in the attached Schloss weren't comfortable and the dog friendly room we stayed in wasn't comfortable becauee there was no air flow in May. It was stagnant and humid. We could barely sleep. I would recommend bringing a fannif you do stay. However the castle grounds are pretty and it is attached to the castle next to it within walking distance through a garden. The price is on par with the location and service. The tram is very close and was very easy to maneuver.

Reasonably priced, very clean, comfortable, and cozy. So much so that I almost want to keep it a…read moresecret! Family owned and operated so you are treated like a guest in their home. The morning breakfast was hearty and very satisfying. Location of hotel is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, tram stop and historic district along the Elbe River. It is located along a main roadway so you hear heavy car traffic when windows are open . No a/c.

I really wanted to give this hotel 5 stars. They have excellent customer service. I found them…read moreextremely friendly and accommodating. The food in the restaurant was quite good and my room was nice. I liked the location too which is on a relatively quiet street outside of the city center. BUT...I found their wireless Internet to be frustratingly slow and, at times, barely useable. I'm not talking about downloading movies! I'm talking about accessing websites like Airbnb or VRBO--both of which I had trouble loading. I finally did access the sites after a lot of frustration but it took me a couple of hours for something which would have taken a half an hour with decent broadband. Also, I have four devices that access the Net--an iPad, a Kindle and 2 iPhones (the older one is unlocked so I can use SIM cards in Europe). In order to get online, I needed different passwords for each device which I had to go to the front desk to get. These would time out periodically, forcing me to enter them again. At first, I didn't keep track of which device used which password. They kindly issued new passwords and then I started keeping track. Suffice it to say that if fast and reliable Internet is something you need, this is NOT the place for you. Especially if you need to upload anything! The download speed was a little over 1 Megabit but the upload speed was a minuscule 0.05 Megabits! Forget about uploading your photos to the cloud (as I was hoping to do). If the Internet is not important to you I encourage to check this place out. Apart from my frustrations online, I really enjoyed my stay! Check out their "half board" option for dinner. You can get a great 3 course meal for less than $20!

Von der Zimmergröße her voll OK, aber die Ausstattung war sehr einfach. Im Bad hatte man zwar keine Badewanne, aber dafür schön Platz in der Dusche. Fenster war zur Hansastraße raus. Sehr laute und auch befahrene Straße. Schlafen mit offenem Fenster war nicht möglich. Nach Rücksprache mit dem Mitarbeiter vom Empfang war das ganze Hotel am Freitag wohl ausgebucht. Für die Nacht zum Sonntag hätten wir angeblich, sofern frei, ein anderes Zimmer bekomen können. Aber nochmal alle Sachen umräumen Zum Schlafen wars OK. Im Gegensatz zu dem Zimmer war das Frühstück dafür aber der Hammer. Viele schöne leckere Sachen. Und vor allem auch sehr gute Auswahl und alles auch frisch! Da sind wir doch gern ein bisschen länger beim Frühstück geblieben. Fazit: Zimmer einfach aber OK, Frühstück einfach nur super!

Tolles Hotel. Die Kette ist halt Klasse.read more
