Penck Hotel Dresden

Location of the hotel was excellent for sightseeing all the main Dresden attractions. Public transport (we used mainly trams) was very close to the hotel. Breakfast and coffee options were great, there was something for everyone. We liked the uniqueness and staying in this hotel was something positively different compared to other hotels we stayed in so far. Overall, we had fun!

The hotel is a fun place to stay - more than the basic hotel experience with all the artworks everywhere, the bathroom also looks fun with the vivid yellow tiles and 80s style basin. The breakfast was also nice, a lot of milk options (soy, almond, oat, normal) and possibility to have gluten free bread rolls as well.

When arriving at the hotel we were impressed by the generous lobby with paintings. Our room was facing the inner courtyard, so they very nicely offered another with street view. That was from our part a big mistake. The room was on the last floor, smaller than the first one, and on the street there where workings. Breakfast is standard, underground parking with elevator access is a nice feature.

The hotel is basically an art gallery, very different from all the other hotels i have been. Everywhere there are paintings and colors, the hall is a real art gallery. The room was specious and also very different from normal, the wardrobe is hidden behind a wall that opens rotating the table. Toilet is also quite large, plenty of mirrors inside, a wide shower and a curious window to the room with a button that changes the glass from matte to see-through. Bed was also quite comfortable and the staff was kind and helpful, easy check-in and check-out, overall very satisfied with it.

Perfect hotel when you come for the Dresden marathon - it's just 5 mins walking from the start/finish area, the same time it's 15 mins walk to the city center. Loved also the design of the hotel, which goes in the name of the famous painter. Nice staff, comfy beds, parking in house (extra charge), really great option in Dresden!
