We reserved you rooms in The Student Hotel in Dresden City. It is located in the middle of the Prager Straße in Dresden - the famous shopping mile with many offers such like restaurants, cinemas, shopping mall, etc..
It is 5 minutes from the central station and not even 10 minutes from Dresden's most beautiful sights - such as the Frauenkirche!
