Hotel berhampiran Roman Baths, Potsdam

Das Hotel ist ganz neu und standardmäßig zweckmäßig eingerichtet, wie alle Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotels. Die Zimmer sind recht klein, leider gibt es keinen Platz für Koffer oder um diese auszuräumen (wir waren zu dritt in einem der kleineren Zimmer ohne Küchenzeile). Das Bad ist ausreichend groß und modern, Ablagefläche auch ausreichend. Leider gab es nur keinen Föhn, was ich erst am Morgen gemerkt habe nach dem Duschen. Auf Nachfrage an der Rezeption (Telefonverknüpfung hat nicht funktioniert) sollte ein Föhn umgehend gebracht werden, wurde er aber leider nicht ... Frühstück sehr gut, alles da, was man benötigt, nur zur Hauptfrühstückszeit (wobei die Frühstückszeiten großzügig bis 11.30 sind) war es am Wochenende sehr voll und dafür zu wenig Tische - einige mussten eine Weile warten, bis ein Tisch frei wurde.

Have spending 10+ nights over 3 stays at The Mercure Hotel Potsdam City, I have to say it's a quaint hotel. It seems to be particularly liked by German retirees, the breakfast area is routinely full. The hotel is clean, reliable, the parking area is not sized properly, parking is not guaranteed and it does get hectic at times. The Customer Service tries their best, I had to tell couple of times for the check-in staff not to scream out loud my hotel room number (for safety purposes). I know they mean well. I was always recognized as a top-tier customer!

hotel hat schöne aussenrestaurants , Spa Bereich schön und abwechslungsreich ausgestattet. Zum relaxen schön und gemütlich.

Das Personal im Restaurant/beim Frühstück war leider mehr darauf bedacht, dass der Gast - pünktlich wieder geht (beim Betreten wurde ich darauf hingewiesen, dass ich 10 min vor Frühstücksende käme. Ich sollte dann später nur nicht sagen, dass ich das nicht gewusst hätte) - oder nicht stört (mein Mann wollte Mittagessen und es gab kein Personal welches ihn in Empfang nahm. Daher hat er sich selber plaziert an einem unreservierten Tisch. Das Personal kam und meinte das er alles falsch mache und da nicht sitze könne. Auf Nachfragen wieso und wie er es richtig mache, wurde nicht gerade nett geantwortet. Er durfe aber sitzen bleiben). Eine dritte nicht so schöne Erfahrung: Auf Nachfrage nach dem auf Trip.com hinterlegten Businesszentrum zum Arbeiten am Laptop, sollte mein Mann dann 100 Euro bezahlen für 1 Tag - wurde wohl verwechselt mit einem Meetingraum. Am Vorabend wurde an der Rezeption gesagt, dass er sich auch ins leere Restaurant setzen kann. Als er dies am Vormittag machen wollte, wurde dies vom Restaurantpersonal dies negiert. Leider kein so schöner Aufenthalt für uns.

It was the worst hotel on our Christmas trip, with the most expensive price. We requested a room with a view in a quiet part of the hotel, having written a letter to the hotel in advance with our wishes. But our wishes were not taken into account, rather the opposite - the room was provided in the building across the road from the main one overlooking the road and was very cold and uncomfortable. Weathered furniture, dirty refrigerator. Breakfast was also the worst of the seven hotels we stayed at during our trip. The only one good thing - we only booked one night. Unfortunately, I no longer want to come back here and recommend this hotel to anyone.

Pet- and tourist-unfriendly place. My latest experience very much resembled extortion. I was charged 100 euro for dog’s fur on the bedsheets and 150 euro for dog’s fur on the floor (the hotel representative had to put quite an effort into scraping some with her shoe) and an approx 0,5 mm brown-ish spot on the carpet which they claimed to be “blood” (considering that there was an approx 5 cm black stain on the carpet as of my checkin which hotel apparently didn’t see as something of an issue to me as a guest). I used to like this hotel (despite being placed on several occasions in rooms with obvious sewage issues), until I stayed there with my dog. I presented my dog at the reception at the checkin (that is the receptionist saw the dog). Paid 15 eur per day pet fee and proceeded to the room. No additional rules, policies or verbal requests were presented to me. My dog damaged a pouffe which I informed the hotel about at the checkout and happily paid whatever was asked of me (200 eur). In addition to that I was demanded to pay 100 eur for some fur on bedsheets and 150 eur for some fur on the floor as mentioned above. No oficial price list was presented. No explanation why 15 eur a day pet fee wasn’t covering washing blankets and vacuuming floor was provided, all my questions or logical arguments were ignored. The team of hotel representatives generously offered me a 50 eur discount on cleaning (which I didn’t ask for) only confirming that the amounts weren’t based on any actual price list, because if the hotel really suffered a loss of 250 eur why would they “gift” me 50 eur. I considered it to be an extortion and suggested to call the police. When I came back after 15 min the hotel still hadn’t called the police. As I had an urgent matter and had to leave, I paid the hotel whatever its staff demanded. I think what actually happened is the hotel staff had accidentally or recklessly placed us in a no-pet room (as there was a carpet, unlike in some other rooms. I was placed into that room after finding out the one I was initially given smelt of sewage - repeatedly happened before). And instead of charging their staff, they’ve charged me, so that they can do (if they actually do) for some deep cleaning after an animal to make it suitable again for people with allergies. Staff’s rudeness and ill attitude with me as a client weren’t in line with the hospitality filed’s even moderate standards. Most customers might find this hotel pleasant - which it is, until it is no longer.

Have stayed at a few hotels in Berlin - and this is the one I keep coming back to - location, and value for money - design and comfort and tranquillity and harmony of design - staff always very professional, helpful and most welcoming and friendly - breakfast is a wonderful indulgence. Hope to continue to return. Thank you Seminaris CampusHotel Berlin

A very affordable option that you should look at if you do not mind the distance. It is right outside of the main city, but it’s clean and safe, there’s a fantastic local pub down the road.

Staff were nice and pleasant. Good part of town with convenient transport links. Room was spacious and light. Able to open windows to a leafy quiet street. Style of interior isn't that of a super modern hotel.. it feels slightly dated but kept clean and tidy. Only bad points for me is the pungent stink coming from the bathroom, which I can only put down to old plumbing/drainage systems. A quite unbearable sulferous whiff which reached a highpoint in the morning 'showering' time... The aforementioned windows had to be opened wide. Apart from that it was fine, okay for a short stop Didn't partake in any of the dining or breakfast on offer
