Ort | • The hostel is situated right in the heart of the Dresden Neustadt quarter, which is on the opposite side of the River Elbe to the historic inner city. To get there it takes a pleasant 30 min walk or just 4 tram-stops.
• The Neustadt is the cultural centre of Dresden. You won't find as many clubs, event-locations, pubs, street art etc. anywhere else in Dresden. Particularly in the summer, many visitors and residents simply sit out on the sidewalk drinking and chatting. It's a colourful mixture of different philosophies of life and ways of living where punks still live side by side with lawyers. Life continues to be played out and celebrated on the street here, especially during our neighbourhood festival, the "Colourful Republic of the Neustadt", or BRN, in the middle of June.
• It's less then 15 minutes to the nearest train station and it's only 4 tram stops to the historic inner city. The famous Alaunpark is only 100m away where, especially in summer time, people young and old go to meet and relax.
