Premier Inn Dresden City Centre

Premier Inn Dresden City Centre

10/10 Excellent
"Small comfortable rooms perfect for single travellers at the very doorstep of the old city of Dresden, with grocers, restaurants, cafes right in the near streets and buildings. Be aware however that in-place parking is limited to 25 places, and that those spots cannot be reserved. The nearby parkings will cost you 20+ euros a day/night"
