It was very nice, we had a beautiful view, we were with a kitten and everything went very well. It was close to the bus or tram and close to tourist spots. Breakfast varied for everyone and very delicious. I recommend this location.

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.

    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. 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.

    Potsdam is a work in progress.

    Potsdam is a work in progress. The town center suffered ariel bombardment in WWII, followed by shoddy post war reconstruction. I visited Potsdam to see the the ongoing restoration work in the town center. The work to date is impressive, and so too are the surrounding parks and palaces, in particular Sanssouci. Sanssouci, in itself, is reason enough to visit Potsdam. I spent several days exploring it at a leisurely pace and enjoyed every minute I spent there.

    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.

    Hotel Am Jägertor is a luxury hotel in an excellent historic location in Potsdam. This hotel probably has the kindest staff ever and you really feel welcomed during your stay. The minibar for guests personal use in the room and the coffee machine with two kinds of coffee available was really awesome. I strongly recommend this hotel.

    Hotel is located very close to the Sansoussi park and University of Potsdam. From a small railway station that is just 5 min on foot, you can easily reach Berlin in 30 min. I also should mention breakfasts that are very good and have not only standard options.

    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.
