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.

    Nice and clean hotel in the center of Potsdam, at walking distance of many sights and with busses and underground parking close by. Flawless on-line check-in We had a spacious and comfortable room, well soundproofed, with a fine view to Brandenburger Tor. Delicious and varied breakfast, over all good quality of food.

    This hotel is located perfectly at the heart of 'old Potsdam' just by the Dutch Quarter. You have numerous restaurants and cafes nearby and are within walking distance of the palaces of Sanssouci & Babelsberg, 500 hectares of parkland, numerous lakes & waterways, all surrounded by endless forests. Idyllic.

    The hotel is in an excellent location, allowing us to both Berlin and Potsdam. The breakfast had lots of choice and was very generous. Staff were very helpful and we got great value out of parking at hotel as we switched to public transport during our stay. Overall, totally satisfied.

    Nice new hotel. Clean and bright room. We chose it as it was only a short walk from the train station. Potsdam is a lovely city, and the hotel was a short walk to the start of the attractions.
