A comfortable home for Potsdam Pottering

The hotel is adequate, and sufficiently comfortable for a 2-4 night stay. It is within walking distance of the Barberini and other galleries. Plentiful breakfast.

Perfect...if you are german

It had perfect location...staff super friendly and helpful and one of the best breakfast ever with a huge selection. The hotel itself is tired...the hall carpet frayed and the furniture was old and cheap when it was new...zero English on tv and not the best wifi. Very nice German restaurant attached too

A well run centrally located hotel

This is a small friendly hotel situated in the heart of Potsdam. The room was large enough, clean, and quiet although the furniture is minimal and a little dated. The hotel has a restaurant and bar with outside seating for both breakfast (included and recommended) and dinner where you can watch the world go by. Despite being near shops, cafes, bakeries the hotel was peaceful as there is relatively little traffic: cycles are common. We enjoyed our stay and would go back again.
