Pre-booked online, super-easy check-in. Lovely clean room. Great breakfast on the lovely patio overlooking the river!

It was perfectly located for my business trip (at Potsdam University) and the main building seemed fabulous. I was super excited to stay there with all its big glass windows and beautiful river location…unfortunately despite the fact I got a suite, they put me in the boring building with no view across the street (see photos for the two buildings)

It was ok property, but they gave me the closest room to the lobby on the ground floor, and it was really noisy, like I could hear every conversation, which was very bothersome.
This hotel is in a university area...rooms across street from check in...receptionist was lovely...but we would not stay here again...room vvv basic and you would need a car to stay here...too basic.
Zimmer war sauber und gut eingerichtet. Personal war jederzeit sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Grei beliggenhet i forhold til tog og universitetet. Men er alt i alt et slitent gammelt hotell. Mulig det er eldre i «annekset» der jeg bodde. Frokosten var bra og over forventning.

Das Zimmer war bei meiner Ankunft (15:20) noch nicht bezugsfertig.
Das Personal an der Rezeption war nicht gerade freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Die Toilette des Zimmers war dreckig.
Ich hatte ein Zimmer im separaten Haus auf der gegenüberliegenden Straßenseite, direkt gegenüber des Bahnhofes.
Das Zimmer und das Badezimmer hatten allerdings eine komfortable Größe.
Unsere Reservierung über expedia.de wurde im PC nicht gefunden. Mussten allein das 3. Bett beziehen für unser Kind. Das Sofa war voller Hundehaare. Die Heizkörper voller Staub. Konnte damit unsere nasse Kleidung dreckig machen. Dann für alles so viel Geld bezahlt - ungerechtfertigt!!! Dieses Hotel nie wieder!

Angenehme Übernachtung in Potsdam
Am 1. Tag hatten wir ein Zimmer (Nr. 503) im unterem Geschoss in Nebengebäude, leider sehr dunkel und direkt zur S-Bahn Station. Es war die Nacht doch sehr laut.
Die 3 anderen Nächte haben wir das Zimmer getauscht (Nr. 710) im 2 Geschoss zur Strasse hin, sehr groß , leise und mit grosser Terrasse zur Strasse hin. Das Zimmer war ok. Leider wird nur alle 3 Tage das Zimmer sauber gemacht, so dass doch viel Dreck nach dem schwimmen in den Seen und durch unseren Hund zusammen kömmt.
Frühstück ist in Ordnung,
S-Bahn-Station in 1 Minute erreichbar. Innerhalb von 5 Minuten mit der S-Bahn am Potsdamer Hauptbahnhof. In die anderen Richtung ca. 40. Minuten am Bahnhof Zoo in Berlin. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Einen herzlichen Dank für den angenehmen Aufenthalt.

Gibt besseres Preis Leistung Verhältnis
War OK, mehr aber auch nicht. Zimmer schon etwas abgewohnt und das Frühstück nur mittelmäßig. Ich musste mehrmals zur Rezeption, weil die Zimmerkarte entweder am Zimmer oder an den Parkschranken nicht funktionierte. Lage direkt am S Bahnhof und unweit der Studios Babelsberg sowie am Wasser ist schön.
Sehr gute Lage aber Teile der Einrichtung müssten dringend erneuert und die Sauberkeit verbessert werden. Qualität des Frühstücks ist Maximal EUR 12,- wert.
Dabei hätte es schön sein können. Aber: Schimmelansätze in der Dusche, Staubflocken im Zimmer. Eine abendliche Party mit lauter Musik auf der Terrasse, die bis 22.10 Uhr andauerte und die nicht angekündigt war. Schade, bei einem schönen Hotel in perfekter Lage und mit eigentlich bemühtem Personal. Dazu überhöhte Preise fürs Parken und für gekühlte Getränke fürs Zimmer. Nochmals: Schade!
