The property is located 16 km from Königstein Fortress, 16 km from Saxon Switzerland National Park and 37 km from Pillnitz Castle and Park. Free WiFi is available and private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

At the hostel, each room includes a terrace with a mountain view. All units at Alte Schule include air conditioning and a wardrobe. The breakfast was amazing, inexpensive, and a great way to socialize with other travelers. Robin was an excellent host and went above and beyond to make sure the experience was a good one. Great for solo travelers, near hiking trails. Bathrooms were always clean, and the rooms were big and beds were comfortable. Literally 30-second walk to the beginning of hiking trails. Schmilka is a ferry and train ride from Bad Schandau, but it's very manageable.

Offering a barbecue and terrace, Herberge Burg Hohnstein is set in Hohnstein in the Saxony Region, 27 km from Dresden. There is a restaurant and guests can have fun at the games room.

The rooms come with a shared bathroom. The staff were super nice and I had a pleasant stay. The room and food were great, with amazing views and history! Felt quite spooky being the only one staying in the castle, thankfully saw no ghosts!
