Located on the Havel island of Hermannswerder in the south of Potsdam, this owner-managed 4-star hotel is situated directly on Templiner See, far enough from the hustle and bustle of the city of palaces, yet close enough to reach it in seven minutes by car. Lake sauna, lake restaurant, and lake view: here, the water is not just a backdrop, but the main attraction.

Inselhotel Potsdam-Hermannswerder on Templiner See

A lake hotel in Brandenburg that is truly located on an island: This 4-star private hotel is situated on the picturesque island of Hermannswerder, directly on the quiet shores of Templiner See. The seclusion here is not a limitation, but rather its true asset. Potsdam city center can be reached in just seven minutes by car, and Berlin is another 30 minutes away.

In May 2026, INSELHOTEL Potsdam-Hermannswerder celebrated its 30th anniversary, and it shows in the operation: processes are smooth, and the team knows its guests. The owner-managed hotel features 88 comfortably furnished rooms, suites, and maisonettes, a lake restaurant with a large lake terrace, an indoor pool, steam and dry saunas, a sunbathing lawn, and massage services, as well as its own boat jetty and a marina. Additionally, bicycle rental, an underground car park, and parking spaces are available directly at the hotel.

Inselhotel Potsdam-Hermannswerder: Lake Sauna and Lake Restaurant

The wellness offerings for a lake hotel in this price range are remarkably comprehensive. The spa and wellness area includes a floating lake sauna, dry sauna, steam bath, a salt brine chamber, a fireplace lounge, as well as heated indoor and outdoor pools and various relaxation rooms. When choosing a room, a lake view is highly recommended: the views from the balconies over the lake and the surrounding forests are the best feature of the house.

In the evening, the activity shifts to the lake restaurant. Regional and international dishes are served, along with a wide selection of wines. Additionally, aromatherapy massages and hot stone treatments can be booked before dining on the lake terrace. The INSELHOTEL Potsdam-Hermannswerder thus delivers everything a waterfront hotel in Brandenburg should: peace, nature, and comfort, without appearing provincial.
