Aparthotel und Pension am Zwinger

After a minute of confusion about the location of apartments vs reception, and a slightly odd, under-construction look to the door of our apt building, we were absolutely delighted by the apartmentl! Incredibly warm, cozy, modern, comfortable, spacious. Staff very professional and helpful. Easy 10-12 minute walk to the Christmas Markets and Frauenkirche! entrance to our apartment seemed under-construction when we arrived, which was a bit odd, but by morning, the main door had actually been entirely replaced, and looked great.

1) The size and the overall appearance of the apartment. It really feels like having a nice apartment of your own in the city with a fully equipped kitchen. A nice change from "standard" hotel rooms. 2) The location. Although not exactly downtown it is within walking distance from the Mitte train station and Postplatz. There is also a tram stop a few meters away. 3) As in most places in Germany the fact that the blankets are wrapped inside clean sheets and there are no bedspreads and exposed blankets. This is not a negative comment, really, just a warning that the apartment is cleaned once every 2 days (this was explained clearly in the information on the hotel). For me this was perfectly fine, but if you want room service every day or twice a day, I am not sure if this is available.

The apartment was spotless and tastefully furnished. The staff were polite and helpful, in fact we had been allocated an upgrade from what we had booked.

It was so quiet and spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable family stay. Our five-year-old daughter loved having her own bedroom, with easy access to ours, as it made her feel really at home. I was surprised to see quite a bit of dust behind the double bed but it didn't matter as everything else was super.

Clean, spacious, quiet, within easy walk to monumental area. Although not essential, the laptops not very user "friendly".

Conveniently sited, five minutes walk from the Zwinger and the main attractions of the Altstadt. And less than five minutes walk from Dresden Mitte train station, making it very easy to reach from the airport. The apartments are large and comfortably furnished. Everything is spotlessly clean. We also liked the vegetarian restaurant, brennNessel, situated around the corner at Schützengasse 18. Be aware that there is a tram line outside, which is quite noisy (on a hot summer's night with the windows open).
