FAQs about hotels in Potsdam

The Glory of Kings and Kaisers

Potsdam holds a pivotal place in German history. The country’s largest UNESCO World Heritage Site – Park Sanssouci – stands testament to the wealth of the kings and kaisers who once held court there. Yellow Sanssouci Palace is somewhat overshadowed by stepped gardens leading up to it from a fountain. A long path leads off at a right angle to the red-coloured New Palace, adorned with statues and a green dome.

Nestled in the intermediate grounds are the Italianate Roman Baths and Orangery, and understated Charlottenhof Palace. Trees hide the botanical gardens, while the gaudy gold Chinese tea house is unmissable. The park even has a grand train station and Dutch-style windmill.

Red gabled houses line the Dutch Quarter, and wooden houses characterise the Russian colony Alexandrowka. One of the city Christmas markets is in Weberviertel amid former homes of Bohemian weavers. Nearby, Filmpark Babelsberg is the world’s oldest film studio and Babelsberg Palace was a royal summer retreat.

In the New Garden by 2 of the city’s many lakes is half-timbered Cecilienhof Palace, where the historic, post-war conference between Churchill, Truman and Stalin led to the Potsdam Agreement and Declaration which shaped the face of Europe.

Booking.com’s Potsdam accommodation includes hotels near the Brandenburg Gate, old town guest houses and city centre apartments.

    Close enough to Berlin for a short journey into the city, so ideal to base yourself there and take the train into Berlin central. Plenty of cultural places to visit in this historical town/suburb of Berlin. Good choice of restaurants, although I was confused as to why so many close 21:00 weekdays.

    A clean and attractive city, with lots to see and a very pleasant ambience. Outside of the obvious attractions like the Sanssouci Palace, there are hidden gems dotted within a 20 minute walk out of the centre. There are myriad places to eat and the transport options are excellent. It is also a great base from which to explore Berlin. It is worth buying a "Berlin Welcome Card" in advance of the trip as this gets rid of wasting time with individual transport tickets as well as providing discounts on attractions.

    Potsdam is an ideal location for a stay.

    Potsdam is an ideal location for a stay. It;s close to Berlin with excellent public transport links but also a great place in its own right, with plenty of historical and contemporary places of interest to visit. I would always choost to stay in Potsdan for any future visit to this part of Germany.

    Sanssouci Palace is wonderful, but quite a few bits of it are closed for renovation. If you can ride a bike, do so as the estate is very extensive. The Barberini art gallery is excellent, as is the Filmmuseum if you are into German film. Two days was just right for me to get a feel of the place before moving on to the glories of Berlin.

    We were there to visit family in Golm, and have been to Potsdam a few times. We used the train, buses, and tram; it was very easy to get around. We have been to Schloss Sansouci, which is beautiful. We also walked through a shopping district and the Dutch Quarter, and we went to the Biosphere which was very interesting.

    Lots to do in Potsdam. Worth more than a day trip.

    Lots to do in Potsdam. Worth more than a day trip. Sanssouci Park, Potsdam Museum, WWII history, Brandenberg Strasse. The Tourist info has a great app which covers the town and history with downloadable commentary. They have gone to a great deal of effort. We are glad we stayed 4 days and could have stayed longer.

    The room was new, comfortable and clean. The breakfast is better than many hotels; the coffee was nice. The restaurant of the hotel was near the river. So it has a wonderful view. The location of the hotel was very nice. I was attending a conference at the Uni of Potsdam, so it was the best location for that.

    The hotel was super clean in a quiet neighbourhood. The location is great, not very close to the city center, but easy to get to the trams and accordingly, to all the locations, not only within Potsdam, but to e.g. Berlin. Nice and friendly staff.

    We have stayed here before but before it was a Maxx hotel and we loved it. Now it's not that luxurious like before, it's just generic. The location is amazing and it was clean. Next time I will stay somewhere else in Potsdam.
