A very good hotel in a good location for the main sights in Dresden. It is about a ten-minute walk to the Zwinger and the Semper Opera. Trams 10 and 11 stop close by and are very convenient.

The hotel is very comfortable. The staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. Breakfasts are excellent and the restaurant is very good, although choice is a little limited.

If you visit Dresden you must go to The Green Vault. It is, simply, the most stunning collection of treasures, mainly collected by Augustus the Strong in the early 18th century.

The range, number and quality of objects on display is simply breathtaking. There are objects in ivory, rock crystal and coral. There are ornate, amazing clocks and caskets. It is difficult to pick out one highlight, but I would suggest that the Throne of the Grand Mogul Aurangzeb is the star.

In many other museums you might find one piece like this among some really rather dull stuff. In The Green Vault it is but one of a constellation, even galaxy, of star pieces. It is the best museum/gallery I have ever seen. Be prepared to spend a long time here.
