Excellent location: The hotel is within walking distance to the historic center of Dresden. The building itself is of historic interest and has been renovated in a stunning fashion. People and dog friendly hotel with good access to doggy walking areas around the hotel and along the Rhine. The hotel is easy to reach by car and offers good parking facilities. The hotel offers an excellent breakfast with a great choice in a breakfast room overlooking the Elbe and with a terrace for taking breakfast outside in good weather.

There seem to be plans afoot to put an office for staff working for the Saxonian government between the Elbe river and the hotel. This should be resisted at all costs!

Hello there. I thought I have to say that. I found reception staff need a bit more of training. When customer arriving and waiting , they need to be invited, called to preside to the desk. I was standing, waiting and resection person was looking at computer, so I do not know if they are busy or waiting for me to do the move first. I understand that in Germany service can’t be called over friendly but standards should be reached. Also in sauna facility, which I had to pay extra I was forced to take my bikini off by other guests(German). I thought it is unexplainable. And if that the case and guest have to go to sauna naked the staff should inform guest and put some writing ✍️ sings that we all have to be nude in those saunas. This aria is more a relaxation facility , not a torcher for one and enjoy for other . I was upset, very uncomfortable and didt go to sauna next day. It was shock for me to see men with young girls(daughters) going to sauna naked. I didt sings for that. And if it is the way it should be information for foreign guest, becouse not all countrys at the same level and would like to get some privacy and choice. Over all it was not bad. Thank you. Elena

I didn’t like that room was not cleaned, saying that electricity had to be saved. I had an empty bag left in the bed, saying leave it outside and they will put some goody’s in it.so I end up chasing them for that goody, just to see what it was. Thought I was a bit tight.

FRIENDLY SERVICE, GENTLE BREAKFAST, IDEAL LOCATION, PERFECT PARKING, LARGE ROOM, COMFORTABLE BED, CLEAN, NICE VIEW OF THE RIVER FROM THE ROOM

2 THINGS THAT FAILED: 1. EMPTY BAR IN THE ROOM, AND IT MATTER WHETHER I ASKED ABOUT IT OR NOT, IF THERE IS A BAR, IT SHOULD BE REPLENISHED (I RETURNED TO THE ROOM BEFORE MIDNIGHT AND WAS UNPLEASELY DISAPPOINTED); 2. HOWEVER, SWIMMING POOL AND SPA - SEPARATE PAID ENTRY TO THE "SAUNA" AREA. NO TOWELS, NO SERVICE, I DID NOT FEEL THE ATOMOSPHERE OF PEACE

Hotel interior is fantastic, location in the city is also fantastic. Breakfast was extraordinary. We had a minir situation upon arrival and immediately got a new room. Staff was very polite and friendly. Elevator ride is experience you must get. The pool was nice and clean. Very clean, very nice furniture and classy feel overall. Would go back!

Official parking is too expensive and there is a nearby parking that is much more affordable. Beds could be more comfortable. The fact that our initial room had a drainage smell issue was a minor nuisance, but staff reacted quickly and to our satisfaction.

Everything - we stayed for a week, the location is a perfect base for exploring Dresden. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were very helpful. We were there to celebrate a 70th birthday and we were not disappointed - it was a very enjoyable week.

We were there during a heat wave - over 30 degrees every day. That couldn't be helped of course but the air con in the room did not seem very effective in that sort of temperature but I don't know if anything can help when it is that hot.

The breakfasts were amazing: a huge selection of food and drinks all very fresh. The hotel is quiet, we almost didn't hear our neighbors. The city center can be reached on foot in 5 minutes. That is, the hotel is very close to the main sights but is a little bit in the distance, so it is quiet and peaceful. A small swimming pool is accessible and towels are provided. Our stay was two days off in a row, so we could not buy milk for our young daughter. At the piano bar closer to the night, the bartender found milk in the hotel kitchen and poured us a glass.

There was no robe, slippers, toothbrushes, or anything else in the room. On the second day of our stay, we noticed a small card on which it was written that you could ask for these things at the reception. I realize that maybe not everyone needs it, but it is better to ask about it when checking in. Also, the air conditioning didn't work in the room and our windows faced the road - we had to sleep with the windows open to the noise of cars. I realize this is not critical, but I would like to know that the air conditioning is not working now throughout the hotel, not broken specifically in our room.

The staff is very professional and friendly. The room was exceptionally large and roomy. Not at all cluttered, a wide open space, large window, great view, well appointed bathroom. In a more stingy place they would have tried to split this into two rooms. But it was wonderful to not feel boxed in. WIFI is great, location also optimal, almost next to the Opera and beside the river. Parking garage is underneath the hotel. In Dresden, nearly all is in walking distance. We plan to come back and will definitely stay in the Maritim Hotel again!

There was nothing not to like.

We had a really great experience and were served by a very friendly and professional staff. The location is fantastic and a short walk to the historic Altstadt. The entire building is very clean and well maintained and leaves a very positive impression especially when you consider the amount of polished marble flooring. Our room was great. We had plenty of comfortable space, everything worked, was very clean and very well maintained. If you book an Elbe river view room on one of the upper levels of 5 or above, you will be treated to a perfect sunrise, in July at least. The breakfast was excellent, high quality and environmentally friendly in that it avoids use of plastic or items that can't be reused. This even goes down to the level of having a butter machine that only dispenses what you ask for. Omelets can be cooked to order and you can even make your own fresh carrot juice if you desire. The selection of available items was large and easily ranks with or exceeds our best experiences elsewhere. The hotel offers a nice terrace on the north side that faces the river and provides a nice, quiet respite from the hot temps and sun where you can relax and enjoy the evening. If you decide to enjoy your evening meal at the hotel you will find a nice buffet and a couple of single menu options available. We didn't want a big meal our first night and discovered that we could limit ourselves to just the Vorspeisen/Appetizers at a reduced price. We were very favorably impressed and this will become our hotel of choice for future visits. Some sights/attractions to consider: The Green Vault and/or Residenz, a visit to the Frauenkirche which is only open to the public at certain times, a boat trip on one of the paddle-wheelers, the Zwinger which unfortunately has the courtyard undergoing construction at the moment, possibly a night Watchman guided tour, various museums and of course just a walk through the Altstadt.

These are small nitpicks but something that might be important to you. 1. The parking garage is a little expensive at 24€ per day but gives you safe parking and easy access to the hotel. Add the planned parking duration and parking ticket to your hotel bill at the Reception Desk and they can set the ticket so you can come and go as you please for day trips without having to pay and then grab another ticket when you reenter. 2. The A/C isn't very strong and takes hours to fully work but does eventually cool the room. In a related aspect, close your curtains during the day to keep the sun out as it warms the room very quickly. 3. If you like to enjoy a whiskey every now and then you will find the available selection severely lacking depth.

Preliminary note: 1 night in a superior double room with Elbe view on the 7th floor (my request for a quiet room at the end of the corridor and as far up as possible was granted, thanks for that). Arrival: Unproblematic, although it is easy to miss the entrance to the public parking garage, where the maritim's parking lot is also located (24 Euro per 24 hours). Check-in and beyond: Friendly and helpful hotel staff. Room: Very spacious and nicely furnished room with very large and comfortable double bed, with a large desk, nice lighting (and bright if desired), two comfortable chairs and an extra table, large bathroom, empty refrigerator (very good as you can cool your own things). Really very quiet room, could hear almost nothing from outside or inside. Location: Very close to the center / old town and located directly on the river Elbe. Very nice view of the river, the green areas along the river and some parts of the old town.

There was not really anything disturbing. But even in every very good hotel there are little things that can be improved ;) a) The WLAN login is old-fashioned and unreliable. You have to log in with your name and room number. This did not work for me (I entered everything as on the invoice). At the reception this error seemed to be known and often occur. The employee explained to me another access route via another network. After that it worked. b) Sometimes the two main elevators are indeed occupied or blocked for a short time (cleaning, repair, etc.). It is generally encouraged to walk sometimes, but from the 7th floor there is apparently no normal staircase for this (at least this is stated in the information leaflet). However, this is not really an annoying problem.

pool is free and open for use, for sauna you have to pay fee pool is calming, if you go for a weekend - great opportunity to relax.

No kettle/coffie machine in the room. No english channels in the tv. (useless if you cannot speak/understand german) There was very little shampoo left in the room, the staff should pay attention. there were no bathroom kits. bathrobes are not available in the room. If you want you have to buy from the lobby (for a fee) and you cannot get this information without asking the lobby.
