Hotel Indigo Dresden - Wettiner Platz — Photo by IHG

The 132-room Hotel Indigo Dresden - Wettiner Platz is within walking distance to the historic centre of the city. The hotel is close to one of the city's most famous sites, Brühl's Terrace, nicknamed the "The Balcony of Europe", which stretches along the shore of the river Elbe. Just steps from the hotel, Kraftwerk Mitte is a former electricity plant, which has found a new life as an arts centre and regularly play host to some of the biggest DJs in Europe. Within the same neighbourhood, the Academy Of Fine Arts in Dresden, HfBK Dresden, occupies a glorious neo-Renaissance building featuring a beautiful glass dome.

Just as no places are alike, no two Hotel Indigo properties are the same. Hotel Indigo Dresden - Wettiner Platz is fully immersed in its neighbourhood, taking its design cues from Dresden's contrasting architecture styles, from modern, industrial buildings to historical Baroque architecture. In the public areas, a modern industrial feel comes through in the use of filament bulbs, scaffold table legs, and features slabs of solid wood and use of copper and brass. Guest rooms are a contemporary take on the baroque architecture of Dresden, with wood-panelled walls and colours taking inspiration from the copper verdigris (the blue-green patina that metals take on when weathered) of the grand buildings of the city.
