Directions
Attention: Dresden has two major train stations. Closer to the hostel is the station Dresden Neustadt. Almost all trains stop there too, particularly trains from and to Leipzig, Prague and Berlin.
From the Neustadt train station
Leave the station through the main exit. Go straight ahead on to 'Antonstrasse' and continue along past the square, called 'Albertplatz'. Keep on walking straight, the street is now called 'Bautzner Strasse'. Turn left at the next crossing, onto 'Rothenburger Strasse'. After 500m the street changes its name to 'Grlitzer Stasse'. We are at the next crossing to the right.
time 15-20 min, approx. 1500m to walk
If you don't want to walk, take tram No. 11, direction 'Bhlau', or No. 6, direction 'Niedersedlitz', for just two stops to 'Bautzner/Rothenburger Strasse' tram-stop. Here you change to tram No. 13 direction 'Mickten' and once again travel just two stops as far as the tram-stop 'Alaunplatz'. Now you just have to walk back along the tram-line for 100m.
time approx. 15 min: 1 min to walk 100m walk
From the main train station (Hauptbahnhof)
Catch tram No. 7, direction 'Weixdorf', as far as the stop 'Bischofsweg'. Turn right onto Bischofsweg and continue along for about 400m. Take the third street to the right, you will find us after 100m.

The easiest way is to catch a train from the airport to the Neustadt Railway Station and then follow the steps shown above.

By car
Attention! There are hardly any parking spaces and many one way streets.
Leave the highway at the exit 'Hellerau' and drive along the main road to the town center. Turn left at McDonalds on to 'Fritz-Reuter-Strasse', pass underneath some railway bridges, cross the next big intersection. The street is now called 'Bischofsweg'. On your left hand side is a big green square. At the end of it turn right on to 'Kamenzer Strasse' and turn right again into the next street, called 'Sebnitzer Strasse'. Our entrance is about 200m ahead on your left hand side, just before the next intersection.
You can drop off your luggage with us here. Then turn right onto 'Grlitzer Strasse', turn right onto the next street again, called 'Bischofsweg'. (Trying of course to find the next available parking space). At the end of the park you turn left on to 'Kamenzer Strasse' and drive around the park. At the other end of the park, a bit above the other area and just 5 minutes away from the hostel there are always legal and free parking spaces. |
