Hexenhaus

This is a very atmospheric place to stay. We were lucky in that we were in the Hexenhaus itself, although they have a number of other properties. If you are in one of these you still have to go to the main property for breakfast. Our rooms were excellent with a sitting room downstairs and the bedroom above. Clean and comfortable, on a note of caution, the shower base is very high from the floor, making for a large step down. The food, however, is superb and I would recommend dining in. A marvellous place and I hope to return one day.

The witch house (hexenhaus) is a great place to stay when visiting Dresden. Don’t expect big rooms and mind your head. The Hexenhaus offers small cosy rooms that give you the feeling you’re staying at your grandma’s attic. The reception is warm and friendly and the food is good for a fair price. From the Hexenhaus the bus and tram take you to downtown Dresden in just 20 minutes.

Looks nice fromthe outside, but never made it into any room. Beware -after 6pm the reception is closed and your asked to call at the restaurant. During the booking process you are asked you to name your arrival time. Well, I was late. As there was not much business at the restaurant that day it was already closed. No sign, no answer to the phonecall. Only 90 minutes and 5 hotels later I managed to find a room, at an eyewatering price. So - beware the witches!
