a GPS is helpful in finding this location. However, having said that, it is only a 5 minute walk from downtown pedestrian zone (shopping [not a wide selection] and restaurants), and a 20 minute walk to Park Sanssouci.

We stayed here at the end of a trip through Eastern Germany and were extremely impressed. It exceeded our expectations. The room was large, comfortable and clean, the service was excellent , the breakfast buffet plentiful (a self serve cappuccino machine !) and the location was top. We would go back to Potsdam just to stay in this hotel!
