Taste Hotel Dresden-Ehemals Residenz Alt Dresden

We stayed at the hotel as part of a Leger Silver Service coach tour. The temperature was in the 30's all week and we did as suggested and kept the curtains closed all day. It made no difference! No fan was offered and not even a free bottle of water. We were told the room would only be serviced every other day. Apart from the heat the room was adequate. Breakfast was excellent with everything you could possibly eat. Evening meal was a completely different matter. We were shocked to find that the menu each evening had one choice for each of the three courses. No alternative was offered. On one evening my wife could not eat either the starter or the main course. When she asked the waiter for an alternative she was told that this was all Leger paid for and there was dry bread on the table! As a former coach driver myself I have stayed in numerous hotels (good and bad) over the years but I have never berore stayed in a hotel which did not offer ANY alternatives. The portion sizes were miniscule. The main course one evening consisted of a tablespoon of spinich, a tablespoon of rice, a sliver of sea salmon and a dash of sauce. City centre can be reached by tram which stops a short distance from the hotel or by taxi which costs 19.5 euros each way. Hotel could be good but badly let down by the way it treats tour passengers

Very nice hotel with free parking in a quiet neighborhood. Breakfast buffet had a lot of options.

Over all we enjoyed our stay at the hotel but the free parking promised was very limited and on both night it was fully occupied and we had to search for a free space in the surrounding.

Gutes Hotel und Top Service !

Nice average hotel experience. Nice staff, which speaks english. Couldn't find the promoted gym (Guess it was removed due to covid) Hotel is a bit more 3 stars than 4 stars. Possibly due to covid-restrictions. Location is nice, located amid the local population and the tram is right next door which leaves every 20 minutes into the heart of the city. Across the street is a döner-joint which can serve a quick meal if you're in a hurry. Breakfast and dinner is bought seperately, which is a bummer. Didn't try it, since i wanted to eat downtown. Atmosphere is nice and calm, possibly better tuned for people above 50. Decor is quite old fashioned.
