Tripplo's verdict, based on guest reviews
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 20 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Bülow Palais sits on Königstraße in Dresden's Baroque quarter, a quieter address on the Neustadt side of the Elbe, with the Altstadt about a 15-minute walk away. What guests praise most is the service: staff at reception, in the restaurant and at the concierge desk are described as warm and attentive in a way that shapes the whole stay. Rooms are spacious and comfortable, breakfast in the bright conservatory wins steady praise, and the day spa with its rooftop saunas is a highlight after a day of sightseeing. The drawbacks are modest. You are not in the Altstadt itself, so expect a walk or a short tram ride to the Frauenkirche, though many guests come to prefer the calm. A few find the classic interior slightly old-fashioned, and small details such as coffee pods and toiletries could be more generous. Couples who want a peaceful palace hotel with a spa will feel at home; those who want to step straight onto the Neumarkt should look elsewhere.
Guests score it 9.2 out of 10 — the average across the 4 hotels we list in Dresden is 9.2.
What Guests Loved
- Staff are what guests mention most: reception, restaurant and concierge are described as warm, smiling and willing to go out of their way, and several guests say the service is what makes the stay.
- The Baroque quarter is calm and pretty, and guests who hesitated about staying outside the Altstadt say it turned out to be the right choice: the old town is an easy walk across the Elbe, and trams run frequently.
Things to Consider
- The hotel is on the Neustadt side, about a 15-minute walk from the Altstadt. Most guests enjoy the walk, but if you want the Frauenkirche outside your window, this is not the place.
- The classic décor is part of the appeal for most, but one guest found the interior a little dated, and another felt one evening's dinner did not match the rest of the stay.
Should you book it?
Bülow Palais is worth booking for couples who want a calm palace hotel with a spa — but pick somewhere else if you want to stay right on the Neumarkt.
