Your affordable family hotel in Dresden

You want to plan a city break with the kids, but you’re worried about… going broke? Kiss your worries goodbye. MEININGER offers you special, reduced rates for children so that you can sit back, relax and get excited. The discount will automatically be applied to your booking once you add the number of kids staying with you.

Here, at MEININGER Hotels, we offer you family rooms with an en-suite bathroom, up to 6 or 8 beds (depending on the hotel), and free baby cots upon request: a perfect fit for your lovely small or big family. Plus, keep in mind that the private rooms typically include 1 double bed and bunk beds—so, the more, the merrier. With our family-friendly facilities, including a guest kitchen and more at nearly all MEININGER Hotels, you can unleash your inner chef, teach your kids how to cook, and then enjoy a family-style meal while chilling in a modern and cozy setting.

Is a pile of dirty clothes threatening to ruin your holiday mood during your family trip? Not anymore. At MEININGER Hotels, for a small fee, you can throw all your dirty socks (and more) in the washing machines and dryers found in all the guest kitchens.

MEININGER and fun go together like two peas in a pod. Did you know that in almost all MEININGER Hotels, there are game zones where your kids can express themselves, play with toys, board games, and cards, or try the table football and the pool table? Join them or keep score! It's a win-win.

What’s more? Staying at MEININGER’s family hotel in Dresden puts you right in the middle of the action. You’re just minutes away from top attractions and fun things to do in Dresden with kids—like the zoo, museums, or a boat tour along the Elbe—one of the most convenient Dresden family hotels for exploring the city together.
