Lovely property with all the amenities. Close to the center of town. Potsdam is a beautiful city and well worth the visit. I would highly recommend staying at Villa Fritz

The kitchen was equipped with everything you need. The bathroom also included a good hair dryer which I appreciated immensely. The explanations about the operation of the TV, the WIFI etc were very clear. They also put at our disposal maps and guides of the city, transport etc. One of the employees dedicated her precious time to explain to us which type of transport card was more convenient. We even had umbrellas when needed. I have no complaints.

The location was great!
Would have liked to had a common area for the four of us, but we knew that it didn’t have one when we booked it, so it’s not a fault of the property. We would have preferred if all of the property’s parking spaces were available as there are only a few and one of the spaces was blocked by a pile a dirt.

A beautiful house near the centre of Potsdam. The room was nice en spacious with great furniture. It's just a short walk (7 minutes) to the centre of Potsdam. Whne you're there, visit the Italian restaurant Da Pazzi or Indian restaurant Sgar, both just 5 minutes away by foot.

the property itself is very good. beautifully decorated with style.
I did not like the staff here at all. I understand that customer service in Germany is in general average, but the arrogance and rudeness I experienced here were still shocking. My heating did not work during midnight (while outside was 0 degrees), I could not reach anyone during the night so I suffered through the night and very little sleep until Booking.com customer service helped me to finally reach someone, and without coming to my room or talking to me, the heating was magically back on afterwards. I complained the morning after about the issue and asked for a compensation for the night I suffered. the response I got was that there was no proof of low temperature and I might have lied. when I asked what if there was a real emergency and hotel customers could not reach anyone at night, the answer I got was even more shocking, the hotel manager said: I heard your voicemail to our emergency phone number, and decided it was not an emergency and that was why I never called back… I checked out this hotel two nights before I should have, on my own loss.

good location. clean. nice decor.
very cheap shampoo and bodywash (one small dose of each). one glass in room. one blanket. (I booked a single but why would you want to be so cheap?)

Good kitchen, lot's of space.
There were some problems with internet that eventually resolved. No substantial problems emerged. When going downstairs, it can be a bit loud during the night.

Great ambiance and convenient location near tram stop. Excellent housekeeping staff. Safe neighborhood
This room is a little noisy in the evening and morning as it is near the parking area but late night and during the day noise is not a problem.

Easy check-in. Housekeeping staff was excellent. They washed and dried some of my clothes for me. Apartment was close to tram stop which made it easy to get to where you were going.
Everything was good.
10.0 / 10.0
In many ways like stepping into another time, but at the same time having all modern necessities including being able to block out the noise from Berliner Str. when this is desirable.
We have stayed in almost 10 other places in Potsdam, but this beats them all. Will definitely return to "Alte Fritz".
Suggestions for improvement:
In order to make the bathing conditions safer for seniors, they should probably install a handle on the wall and a non-slip surface in the bathtub.

Exceptional suite located between two beautiful lakes in Potsdam and about 10 minute walking distance to Potsdam's historical city centre. Super cozy and warm place, unique furniture and interior design inspired by the Prussian monarchy. An absolute bargain for what you get.

18th Century Villa in the Former East Berlin/German city of Potsdam
It’s fully updated to modern standards while maintaining minute details of the past. Reception executive lady was very helpful showed room keys opened gate and so on. it’s a clean facility and everything worked as promised. Bonus was car parking was free inside the property. Just 6 miles or so from Berlin Capital City. Definitely it’s value for money. If you have time please go through the documents and book they placed at the reception for historic facts.

The location is absolutely perfect! Amazing part of town, near so many major parks, the theatre, the dutch quarter, and a safe location. Shops, local cafes all nearby.
The shower in our room was broken. Only one of the shower heads worked (not typically an issue), but the working shower head sprayed a lot of water out of the shower. We just had to clean the water, so it was fine overall.

I travelled with two friends and we booked the apartment.
Location: excellent. From Potsdam train station by tram was around 10mins and the tram stop is literally across the road from the hotel. It is in the centre town and near lots of sights. The real gem for us was the tour bus stop was across the road from the hotel - it is perfect.
Loved the period features!
Room: We booked the apartment which was split level with the double bed on one floor and the single bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom below: Loved it! We adored the olde worlde or period feel of the property, it was very tastefully decorated and also very clean in this covid era. The apartment is large and with three women, we had ample space.
Bathroom: again excellent. Great power shower and bath. There were complimentary shower gel, shampoo, and lotion. A good amount of towels too.
Kitchenette: good size with kitchen equipment provided.
Host: great! We were given the necessary information prior to arriving at the hotel and so check-in was seamless and more importantly in covid time - contact
Wi-fi: Decent, can’t complain
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.

Here now and loving it!
Instructions for entry to the building and my room were provided 24 hours prior to my arrival.
The Pension Villa Fritz is centrally located in the charming town of Potsdam. There is average street noise however it is not at all noticeable when the windows are closed.
The room itself is charming and elegant and reflective of having been built in 1865. However, there are some modern pleasant surprises such as automated darkening blinds, a very large modern bathroom with towel warmer and a fridge on the spacious veranda which was a pleasant surprise. There is also a Nespresso style coffee maker and a kettle with a selection of teas. The coffee capsules though did not provide me with the taste of a good cup of Nespresso coffee, they are off brand and weak but not a big deal. If I come back I will bring my own capsules.
The bed is pretty and special, the mattress is a foam type like I have at home and the pillows are generous and super fluffy.
I travelled from Canada and was ready for a shower and nap when I arrived. It was nice to have a grocery store nearby where I was able to procure some food items and avoid having to find a restaurant.
I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Very lovely place!
The coffee capsules for the Nespresso machine were off brand and not good

We got very precise instructions on how to get to our room upon arrival, which made it very easy. The room was clean and comfortable, with everything that one would expect. The kitchen had everything one would need to make simple meals (important for me as I'm a celiac and sometimes restaurants are not an option). Walking distance to the center of Potsdam.
The only slightly negative thing was that we weren't warned before arrival that they needed a negative Covid test or proof of vaccination. We found out once we had checked in due to a note in the bedroom. It would have been nice to know beforehand because then we would have saved time by bringing one from earlier in the day. But apart from his, everything else about the stay was great.

We stayed for one night to catch an early flight from Berlin SXF (30mins drive) Great location, quiet!! Although located off quite a busy road. Comfy bed. lovely period-style townhouse. Complimentary nibbles + good coffee. Free off-road parking.
Amazing Indian food restaurant within walking distance.
