Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Pension Am Findling, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above the 3rd floor) for a quieter stay, as the lower floors may experience more street noise from the adjacent road, Großbeerenstraße.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the lift on lower floors, as they may be more prone to noise from guests and staff moving around.
Best views
Unfortunately, the address on Großbeerenstraße doesn't offer any notable views, as the hotel is situated on a relatively quiet street without any major landmarks or vistas.
Quietest floors
The 4th floor and above are likely to be quieter, given the hotel's layout and the fact that it's a 3-star property.
🔊 Noise notes
Guests can expect some noise from the nearby traffic on Großbeerenstraße, but it's not excessively loud. However, rooms facing the street may be more prone to noise pollution.
Insider tips
Book a room with a larger capacity (e.g., a family room) to get a more affordable rate, as this hotel tends to offer better value for larger groups. Take advantage of the hotel's proximity to the Potsdam city center by walking to the nearby Friedrich-Ebert-Denkmal, a historic monument and a great spot for a photo opportunity.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Find train tickets →Potsdam Hauptbahnhof → Babelsberg Park / S Babelsberg
💡 From the hotel, walk 5 mins to S Babelsberg station. Tram 94 stops right there – it’s faster than the bus for the film studios.
S Babelsberg → Potsdam Sanssouci Park
💡 This bus runs along the park’s edge – hop off at Schloss Sanssouci stop for the shortest walk to the palace entrance.
Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) → Potsdam Hauptbahnhof
💡 Buy a single ticket for Berlin ABC zones – covers your journey and local onward travel. Validate it before boarding.
Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER) → Hampton by Hilton Potsdam Babelsberg
💡 Pre-book with Taxi Potsdam or use the MyTaxi app for a fixed fare. Avoid unofficial drivers at the airport rank.
Potsdam Hauptbahnhof → greet Hotel Potsdam am Park Sanssouci (stop: Am Kirchsteigfeld)
💡 Bus 605 runs through the Bornstedter Feld district; get off at Am Kirchsteigfeld — the hotel is a 2-min walk. Same ticket works for the RE1 from Berlin if you buy a multi-zone day pass.
Potsdam Hauptbahnhof (tram stop: Hauptbahnhof / Lange Brücke) → greet Hotel (nearest stop: Max-Dortu-Platz, then 10-min walk)
💡 Tram 91 is scenic — it passes the Dutch Quarter and the Alter Markt. But the walk from Max-Dortu-Platz is uphill and not well signposted; better to take bus 605 unless you enjoy a short leg-stretch.
Potsdam Hbf → MAXX by Steigenberger Sanssouci Potsdam
💡 Buy a single ticket from the red machine at Potsdam Hbf (coins or card). Validate it onboard – fines are €60. The tram runs close to the hotel entrance.
S-Bahn Griebnitzsee → MAXX by Steigenberger Sanssouci Potsdam
💡 If you're coming from Berlin city centre by S-Bahn (S7 to Griebnitzsee), switch here to bus 638 or 639 towards 'Potsdam, Schloss Sanssouci' – drops you opposite the hotel. Cheaper than RE1 for short hops.
BER Airport → MAXX by Steigenberger Sanssouci Potsdam
💡 Buy a Berlin ABC day ticket (€10.70 for 2024) to cover both the RE1 train from BER to Potsdam Hbf and the tram. From Potsdam Hbf take Tram 92 or 96 to 'Schloss Sanssouci' stop – hotel is a 3-min walk.
Berlin Hauptbahnhof → Potsdam Hauptbahnhof
💡 Get the Potsdam ABC day ticket at the station — for €7.20 you cover the RE1 plus all buses/trams within Potsdam, including the 605 bus from Potsdam Hbf to the hotel.
BER Airport → MAXX by Steigenberger Sanssouci Potsdam
💡 Book with TaxiFun Berlin (app or phone) for fixed rates around €45-55. Avoid unlicensed touts at arrivals.
BER Airport → greet Hotel Potsdam am Park Sanssouci
