Staycity Aparthotels Dresden City Centre

I stayed here for the first two nights of a trip to Europe where I would spend my time cooking. The room size was XS, but it was spacious enough. It was an apartment hotel with a kitchen, but there was a proper reception, and the breakfast buffet, while not as good as a high-end restaurant, was just right and I was satisfied. The price was reasonable (about 12,000 yen per night) and it was close to the main tourist attractions, so I think it is convenient even for ordinary travelers. Even for people who cook like me, I felt that the kitchen was quite easy to use. People who are not used to European stoves may be confused at first, but if you look it up online, you will be fine. I cooked three times in two nights. There was a frying pan, small pot, pot, bowl, colander (although it was coarse), squeezer, spatula, tongs, knife, and cutting board. All the cutlery and plates were provided. The refrigerator was large, and there was a dishwasher, although I did not use it. Detergent, towels, and kitchen paper were provided. One thing that I found inconvenient when cooking was the lack of a rubber spatula. I bought one on the way there. Behind the hotel is the large shopping mall, Altmarkt Gallery, so shopping is not a problem. There are two supermarkets inside. There are also many food courts where you can get snacks. There was no bathtub in the bathroom, and the shower room didn't have a door to seal, so you had to be careful not to splash water too much when showering, which I think is a negative point. But overall, I thought it was a comfortable hotel.

Great location, partly with a view of the Zwinger Beautiful suites, still affordable even during Advent Top facilities with minibar included

It was a bit too cold in the room. No private parking, the hotel is a bit difficult to find from the parking lot. Otherwise nothing else to complain about.

The hotel is in a very good location, next to the Grand Palace. You can even see the hotel inside the Grand Palace. You can reach all the attractions on foot. This trip lasted 22 days in 9 cities, and the one I was most looking forward to was Dresden. The most beautiful Baroque buildings in the world are all here. It was a city in the former East Germany. Because I arrived after dark, I felt like I was in the 1980s in China before arriving in the city. I was still amazed when I left the hotel after dawn. The buildings are very magnificent, and they are quite different from the traditional Gothic style. The hotel room is very crowded, and you can only open one box when there is a sofa bed. The place is so small that you can't even step down. The hotel shares an elevator with other hotels, and the front desk is on the sixth floor. The room is very far from the elevator, and you have to walk through the corridor and many doors to get to the room. There is no problem with the facilities itself, and the staff are also very good. I may stay here next time, but I will definitely make a note to ask for a room close to the elevator.
