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.

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.

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)

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.

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!

Es hätte perfekt sein können...

Das Hotel ist an sich sehr schön gelegen und das Frühstück ist supertoll und sehr liebevoll. Leider hatte ich mir aufgrund der Fotos vom Zimmer etwas anderes erwartet. Schade war, dass das Bett zwei zusammen gestellte Einzelbetten, waren und kein KingBett, obwohl ich genau deswegen eine höhere Zimmerkategorie gebucht hatte. Die Betten mussten dann von uns auch mehrfach wieder zusammen geschoben werden, weil sie sich voneinander weg bewegten. Echt schade...
