Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs inside banks or post offices for fair rates; avoid the exchange offices at Dresden Hauptbahnhof and airport, which give poor rates and high fees.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants, and shops; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) work fine, but keep some cash for smaller bakeries, market stalls, and some local cafes.
Round up to the nearest euro in restaurants (5-10% for good service), round up taxi fares to the next euro, and tip hotel housekeeping €1-2 per night.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Filter coffee at a bakery (Bäckerei) costs around €2-2.50; standing at the counter is cheaper than table service.
A Mittagstisch (lunch special) at a local pub or Gaststätte: a main dish with a drink for €8-11.
Simple main course at a neighbourhood restaurant: schnitzel, pasta or currywurst with fries for about €10-12.
The Altmarkt or Neumarkt areas have food stalls at festivals; otherwise look for Döner kebab shops (€5-6) or Asia noodle boxes for a quick fill.
Netto, Lidl, and Aldi are the budget supermarket chains found in the 01069 area.
C&A, H&M, and Primark are the cheap high-street options; for second-hand, try charity shops (Kaufhaus) or flea markets on selected weekends.
A single ticket is €3.40, but a 24-hour ticket for zone Dresden (€8.60) covers unlimited trams/buses in the city; from the airport, the S-Bahn (S2) costs €3.40 one-way — avoid the airport express shuttle.
Take advantage of the Dresden City-Pass for free public transport and museum discounts if you plan sightseeing; eat at Mittagstisch (€8-11) instead of dinner menus (€14+); fill your water bottle at public fountains or tap water — it's safe and free.

💡 Get off at Altmarkt, not Postplatz; the hotel is a 2-minute walk from there, not 10.
