NH Potsdam, hotel in Potsdam

This elegant 4-star hotel is located in the center of Potsdam, opposite the Dutch Quarter and beside the Nauener Tor Gate. It offers a modern spa, a rooftop terrace with great views, and gourmet food....

The location was just in front of a tram stop less than 10min from the central station. In the middle of the beautiful shops/restaurants area but not noisy at all as the hotel building is not directly facing the Main Street. The room was clean and comfortable. Staff were lovely and the breakfast was excellent.

Vienna House by Wyndham Havelufer Potsdam, hotel in Potsdam

This hotel in Potsdam offers free Wi-Fi, and modern rooms with a flat-screen TV. It overlooks the River Havel and is a 5-minute walk from Potsdam Charlottenhof Train Station.

It was a very warm room. We read some comments that in summer it may get very hot in rooms. But in winter it was perfectly warm. The beds were medium to hard very nice for a good sleep. The covers were a little bit short but it was not a problem for a warm room. Also there is a good restaurant Toscana located just two steps from a back door of the hotel.

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.

    A very walkable city with good transport links to Berlin ( a S- bahn train every 10 mins). Park SansSouci was worth seeing,. Lots of nice restaurants, coffee shops and bakeries everywhere. Easy day trip from Berlin although an overnight stay would allow more time for a relaxed stay and to take in all the attractions.

    Before I list the pros & cons, it is important to note that this review does not reflect Germany as a whole or other cities in Germany. I have not met Germans from other major cities so I simply cannot compare what I saw; however, my review is based on pure observation, and my intention is not to give a collective opinion about a specific nation. Pros: The city is very clean and organized, hospitals are all over the place, and finally the stores, restaurants, and shopping areas are great. Cons: You have to understand that this city is not for tourists at all. It is crystal clear that it's full of locals and it will be very rare to see any tourists around. The locals (who made it clear to us on several occasions are not in need of tourism), many of them see visiting tourists as a burden and not a blessing. Mid-aged to old Germans are non-English speakers, and young Germans are (it's fascinating how a full generation knows one language and the other doesn't). If you stop someone on the street to help you out, they rarely will go out of their way to do so. Germans lead private lives, it is an individualistic culture, and they get paid high wages so do not expect them to want tourists anywhere around their cities and neighborhoods. It is also clear that the majority do not care what type of impression international travelers have about their country. They see themselves self self-sufficient and that is the most polite way I can summarize my visit. I hope this review helps, good luck.

    The park is lovely to wander around, with grand palaces, beautiful gardens and art galleries to visit. The town centre and Dutch Quarter are worth visiting and also the Cecilienhof where the Potsdam Conference is definitely worth seeing.

    Lots to see and historically all very interesting with beautiful palaces. Plenty of restaurants/ cafes and shops to wander about. The centre is flat and manageable. The Potsdam bus is a good way to see it and get around. Staying in Potsdam has a more relaxing ambience than Berlin, but a day trip to Berlin and the hop on/ off bus there is within easy reach, if you research the links beforehand.

    I mostly enjoyed Sanssuci park where I spent many hours in total bliss. did not have much time to visit the rest of the city. I found out that most of the restaurants did not have menus in English and for the most part, waiters did not speak English and were unwilling to assist. One even said to me, "we don't serve tourists"! it is easy to get around but not easy to get information in languages other than German.

    Ideal for walking around.

    Ideal for walking around. I visited the central places like the Sancousi Palace and Cecilienhof Garden. My hotel was also well suited to visiting the House of the Wannsee Conference, which I went to on my last full day. This is really worth visiting.

    The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Although my sister and I stayed only for one night, it was a great central location for us to stay during our short trip to Potsdam. It is centrally located and there were great shops and restaurants nearby. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the breakfast that was provided. We had a comfortable stay here and I would recommend it to visitors to Potsdam.

    We were traveling by train and needed to take the an S-bahn from the main Potsdam train station. Thank goodness for the signs at the wretched S-bahn station which pointed us in the right direction to the hotel. The actual hotel is situated right on one of the lakes in Potsdam. It was late when we arrived and we ate dinner at the hotel restaurant which was fortunately still open as there aren't any other choices in the area.

    Very clean (bath)room, 10 minutes walk from Luisenplatz (start of the pedestrian shopping and restaurant area), on the west side of Potsdam centre. Bus, S-Bahn (tram) and train station Charlottenhof (in 29 minutes to Berlin Zoo station with a day ticket of EUR 7,00 only) are only 5 minutes on foot. Quiet location, yet 2 minutes by car from the main through roads. No road noise!

From the hotel, the Brandenburg Gate is in fine view of our room on the 1st floor. Breakfast was simply exceptional in range and style! The walls have many fine drawings on its walls that add to the cultured atmosphere of this fantastic hotel.

    This is a fantastic hotel, perhaps the best-equipped hotel we have stayed at. We traveled as a family with three children, and the rooms were simply amazing with a view of the bay with boats. The staff was perfect. The hotel is in the best location you could ask for in Potsdam, within walking distance of all the important centers of the city. We highly recommend this hotel.

The kitchen had everything one would need to make simple meals (important for me as I'm a celiac and sometimes restaurants are not an option). Walking distance to the center of Potsdam.
