Kunsthaus Kurgan  

Just steps from Heiliger See on Potsdam’s north-east edge, opposite Cecilienhof Palace Park. Walk to Marmorpalais, Neuer Garten and Villa Schöningen; Sanssouci Palace is about 10 minutes away and the Glienicke Bridge sits 0.6 mi off. Pet-friendly and perfectly placed for quick trips into Berlin.

Artist-decorated, spacious apartments featuring original works by Peter Kurgan. Rooms come with a dining table, cable TV, towels and bedding, plus terraces and free bikes for exploring the lakefront. A private sauna is available for a small fee.

Outdoor pool and additional pool for swimmers. Terrace, barbecue area, free bikes, and parking zone on site. Pets are welcome. Wake up to lakeside mornings right across from the palace park.

Free WiFi throughout the property and apartment tables that double as work space. Easy road connections — Potsdam Main Station and the A115 are a short drive.

Kitchens in each apartment include a stove, toaster and coffee maker so you can self-cater. A cluster of cafés and restaurants is just a 5-minute drive away for local flavors.
