Hotel-Pension Kaden - Dresden

Our mistake was thinking this was close to Dresden CBD which it is not. It is definately a hotel to use for the airport like it says and not for sightseeing in Dresden which is what we did. We felt the welcoming was a bit weird. In the morning, we couldn't find the person to pay and didn't know how to reach them. Ended up paying though.

The hotel was described as 10 minutes by public transport to the centre of Dresden which was not true. There is ongoing repair work to the tramline and all passengers have to change onto a bus. It took us about 40 mins. each time. Without the disruption it would probably take about 25 mins into town. (not 10 mins) Good variety of restaurants 300 m. up the road in the village of Klotschke. Very good breakfast provided at Pension Kaden included in rate. Very nicely and newly furnished rooms. It is a pension with no facilities of a hotel. We were put into the annex building(with single rooms) so I never saw the beautiful rooms and furniture which had attracted me in the photos. The owner said we had to pay in cash as she could not accept credit cards. This was not convenient but at least we were told when we arrived so we could go to the bank.

Nice, clean rooms. Very good breakfast. Choices of restaurants in the area rather restricted but we found one that met our needs within a block or two of the pension.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Hotel-Pension during our first trip to Germany. The host/owner was very friendly and the whole facility was spotless. Our room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. Since we were so impressed with the hotel we arranged to extend our stay to a second night. The breakfast was delicious and offered a variety of foods for any taste. We certainly would recommend this hotel and would return again for another stay.
