Dresden hostel is 2km from Dresden's central railway station and offers easy access to the old town's churches and museums as well as making a good base for visits to Pillnitz and Moritzburg castles and the porcelain city of Meissen. There is capacity for 480 people and facilities include internet access, TV and meals.
The City is nestled in a landscape of rolling hills shaped by the river Elbe, between the town of Meissen and the “Saxon Switzerland” mountain range. This location has been particularly advantageous for development of the arts and for wine-growing and the locals are known for their jovial charm.
The capital of Saxony is a modern city that preserved its flair of a former royal residence - a place with a definite zest for life. Dresden has many attractions, extraordinary art collections, historic monuments and other cultural offerings. It’s a bustling city in an unspoiled natural environment. Since 2004 the Elbe water meadows are listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. Dresden has a lot of entertainment on offer too: restaurants, trendy bars etc. The youth hostel is located in a central but quiet area, only a few minutes walk from the historic centre.
People of 27 years or over pay a surcharge of €3 per night.
Surcharge for single and twin rooms p. p. p. n. (subject to availability): Single: €10 Twin: €4 (doesn’t apply to group guides);
Rebate for children: Up to 2 years free of charge, 3 – 13 years 30% rebate;
Group rebate: For a group of 20 paying customers another one totally free (accommodation, sheets and meals at the YH).

| My room is in the end of one side and there is only one shower room in each floor and it is on the other end side, so it is very inconvenient to walk a long way for taking the shower in the common shower room. I think it should have at least two common shower rooms on each floor (it is provided for toilet rooms, one on each end of the floor wing.)
The staff insists check in time starting at 4PM even though there might have some rooms ready for guests. I arrived in the hostel at 2PM and have to wait for 2 hour in the common room before allowing to check in. I hope the policy can be a little bit more flexible for check in. | ||

| The breakfast was fantastic, and for 5.5 Euro the buffet dinner was the best value in the city! Though it's a little further than 500 metres from the train station, so be prepared to walk for about 20 minutes to get there. | ||
