Laurichhof

Very quirky hotel! Every room has a different theme and it certainly is "different", in a very curious and quirky way. The beds were comfortable, just wish the window would have been bigger in the bedroom for fresh air. Lots of buttons for lighting that are not quite obvious but in return a very spacious bathroom with a great shower! Had breakfast there twice. Smaller buffets but sufficient. We also ate dinner at the hotel, nice preparation as well. The ladies at the front desk were charming.

This is possibly the best designed hotel in which I've ever slept. We stayed in the white room - WhiteOut. It was Hobson's choice as almost all of the rooms were already booked for the weekend which we decided on at the last minute. We thought it might be a little bland. Far from it. The dazzling white room was stunning. The rest of the hotel was as good as the room. The layout, around a central terrace/courtyard, reminded me of some Mediterranean resorts and the design elements that made the room so visually attractive were everywhere, inside and out. We ate in the restaurant. Not a huge choice but the food was very well cooked and presented. We'll be back 😊

This is what I can only describe as a 100 percent hotel — everything just works. From the bright parking garage with plenty of space, to the wonderfully designed rooms, to the beautiful courtyard, to the awesome cooking from the restaurant chef, and the extremely friendly and serviceminded staff. And on top of that, the hotel has a great geographic placement right between the big city of Dresden and the awesome national park, Der Sächsische Schweiz. I am definitely coming back.

Stayed here in September for 3 nights in a Blueberry Fields Suite (I believe it was room #8). As we were booking at the last minute, this was the last room we could book. Even though a bit too dark for me, the suite was very comfortable during our short stay. The bathroom was beautiful, the room was spacious and had a small but cozy separate bedroom, large closet space, and a nice balcony overlooking the inner courtyard of the hotel. The location of the room could be troublesome for those with limited mobility; we had to take a few steps up/down whenever going out of the hotel (through the courtyard), and whenever going to the restaurant/ reception building. There is a small luggage elevator at the reception, which is helpful. The parking was at an additional fee and was quite tight, but it was great to have that option to do day trips out of Pirna. The location of the hotel was quite good; in a quieter neighbourhood across the river from the Old Town of Pirna, but not too far away. We walked to Old Town for dinners in the evenings, and that walk over the beautifully lit up bridge was taking no more than 10-15 minutes, and it felt safe and enjoyable. There aren’t many restaurants near the hotel; other than the hotel’s own restaurant. We tried it for breakfast each morning (at a fee), and it was very good; fresh food, lovely presentation, very pleasant staff. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay at the Laurichhof and thought it was a great choice in Pirna. We were also very pleased with picking Pirna as a hub for exploring the region’s attractions. Highly recommended!
