Gutes Hotel mit toller Lage
★★★★☆ Gutes Hotel mit toller Lage und kleinen Schwächen
Das Waveboard Hotel Potsdam überzeugt mit einer großartigen Lage direkt am Wasser und bietet moderne, stilvoll eingerichtete Apartments. Die Zimmer sind geräumig, gut ausgestattet und bieten einen schönen Blick auf den Hafen oder die Umgebung. Besonders die voll ausgestattete Küche ist ein Pluspunkt für längere Aufenthalte.
Insgesamt ein empfehlenswertes Hotel für einen entspannten Aufenthalt in Potsdam – mit ein paar kleinen Optimierungsmöglichkeiten.

Super für Familien
Wir waren mit 6Erwachsenen und 2Kindern in diesem wundervollen Hotel. Der Ausblick aus unserem Zimmer war gigantisch. Das Hotel sehr stylisch und die Umgebung super schön. Die Lage ist optimal, kleine Restaurants sind in der Nähe und es angenehm ruhig. Die Schiebetüren im Appartment sind hellhörig, hat uns aber nicht weiter gestört.

Großzügige Unterkunft, sauber und toll ausgestattet, mit Hund ideal
Es war zu laut bei geöffnetem Fenster.
Die erste Nacht von Samstag auf Sonntag war Halloween Party nebenan in der Fabrik und in der Nacht von Sonntag auf Montag liefen dann morgens um 05:00 Uhr irgendwelche Aggregate, vermute mal vom Theater nebenan, an. Infolgedessen konnten wir nur bei geschlossenen Fenstern weiter schlafen. Im Sommer wohl eher unangenehm.

Hervorragender Service, ein unerheblicher Mangel wurde kompetent und freundlich behoben
Great, but no air, no windows. Stay here in winter
Here is why I gave it a middling review. There is no air conditioning and there are no windows. The only way to get any air is to leave your balcony door open. In our case we had a first floor room directly on a busy sidewalk. We were offered a fan, but it would not have done much good, just blowing around the stale air in the room. Otherwise, this was a great hotel, but I would only stay here in the winter.
Das Appartement bietet einen traumhaften Blick über den See. Die Ausstattung ist modern und es fehlt an nichts. Das Parkhaus grenzt direkt an und kostet 14€ für 24h. Mit dem Fahrrad kann man Potsdam am besten kennenlernen, Fahrradverleih ca. 10min zu Fuß entfernt.
Wir kommen sehr gern in dieses Hotel (es ist nicht das erste Mal). Wir verbinden die Unterkunft mit einem kulturellen Event in der Schiffsbauergasse. Wir sind sehr zufrieden - mit allem und kommen gern wieder.
Bettkomfort gut, aber etwas hart. Herausragend war das freundliche Rezeptionspersonal. Besuch fand während kühlerer Maitage statt. Somit hatten wir von der Ausgehszene keine Lärmemissionen. So konnten wir auch die traumhafte Aussicht sehr geniessen!
Der Standort des Hotels ist für uns ideal, wenn wir mal wieder einen Theaterbesuch im HOT planen. Wir fühlen uns hier wohl. Es ist alles so - wie wir es uns vorstellen und wünschen.
War alles bestens mit einem hervorragenden Ausblick. Das einzige was eventuell gut wäre, ein Kaffeeautomat in der Lobby oder auf den Etagen. Für alle die gerade ankommen bzw. morgens dann aufstehen wäre das Prima wenn ein Kaffee- oder Snackautomat da wären.
