art'otel dresden, by Park Plaza
Ostra-Allee 33
Dresden, Germany
Style: Modern Design
Atmosphere: Lively
174 Rooms
Text size:
The art’otel chain is a small one, numbering just a few hotels across Germany, mixing modern hotel design with an art gallery atmosphere — each art’otel is dedicated to the work of a particular local artist, and features a collection of that artist’s work. The décor is conceived as a complement to the artwork, and though modern, shies away from the prevailing international style of Zen minimalism — instead leaning toward the playful, the whimsical, the idiosyncratic.
This particular art’otel is located in a historic quarter of Dresden (a modest walk from the old town and a tram ride from the new city center) and is dedicated to the work of local painter and printmaker A. R. Penck, whose work is colorful and complicated, its primitive figurations recalling both graffiti and children’s art. Needless to say, this makes for interesting hotel design, miles beyond the white walls and dark woods of the average boutique hotel.
The appeal extends beyond the purely aesthetic — while certianly no five-star palace, this is a comfortable and well-appointed hotel, with all the basics covered; in addition to the art gallery there is a health club, complete with gym and sauna, and extensive business facilities. Wireless internet is available throughout, and the location is central, meaning that the Factory restaurant and Mix café, while fine enough, need not be the only game in town.

Convenient, reasonable price.
What the hotel could do better
Despite the 'art' title, it's essentially a large corporate hotel (a Park Plaza in fact). The art is also underwhelming - large, repetitive (all by the same artist) and of the a-bit-abstract-with-some-figurative-elements-to-suggest-taste-but-nothing-really-interesting-or-challenging type. Breakfast -which is at least discretionary- is also very expensive.

These reviews are posted exclusively by verified guests whose stays were booked through TabletHotels.com. We do encourage our clients to express their opinions, and what makes a hotel experience great is often something subjective, a matter of personal taste. At the same time, many of the hotels we list are extreme in one dimension or another, and are bound to disappoint somebody somewhere. These reviews are an excellent way to identify a hotel's particular quirks, and thereby avoid a poor hotel-guest match. But remember: if a hotel's overall customer rating falls lower than 15 out of 20, the hotel will be removed from our listings.
The opinions expressed in these reviews are solely those of our clients; the opinions expressed in any hotel management responses are solely those of the hotels themselves. We do not endorse any of the opinions expressed within the reviews, and we are not affiliated with any of the hotels in question. We reserve the right to remove any of the review or management response at our discretion.
