Grimm's Hotel Berlin-Potsdam takes meetings, workshops, training sessions and company dinners for up to 70 people, with three meeting rooms, two small creative rooms and 85 bedrooms in the same building. The hotel stands on Gonfrevillestraße in Teltow, a town on the southwestern edge of Berlin, close to Potsdam.
Seminars and company events
The rooms are set up for day meetings and residential seminars. The basic package covers room hire, support from the event team, a projector, flipchart, pinboard, moderation case, writing materials, Wi-Fi and drinks in the room. A smartboard, a video conferencing system, a 3 by 3 m stage, wireless handheld microphones and headsets can be added. The meeting rooms open onto the sun terrace and the restaurant, so breaks and lunch happen a few steps away. The three main rooms also have ambient lighting and a dance floor, which makes it easy to turn a working day into an evening event. Seasonal packages are offered for the low and high seasons.

The hotel has 85 rooms, among them single, double and family rooms, Prinzensuiten and two Königssuiten. Guests have a sauna area with a Finnish sauna and a bio sauna, a fitness room and rental bikes. The hotel is bett+bike certified, and the Berlin Wall Trail passes about 1 km away, which suits a cycling outing during a seminar.
Catering
The in-house restaurant, Tischlein deck' Dich, has about 60 seats and cooks modern regional food, with a bar, a breakfast buffet and à la carte service. For meetings, the kitchen offers snack breaks with sweet and savory items, a one-course meeting lunch with a fish, meat or vegetarian choice, a three-course business lunch and a seasonal three-course dinner. In summer, the dinner can become a grill buffet on the rooftop terrace. Individual buffets are available from 30 people.
History and setting
The whole hotel is themed on the tales of the Brothers Grimm, from the meeting rooms named after Wilhelm and Jakob Grimm to the restaurant, which takes its name from the tale of the wishing table. The Sterntaler-Lounge has a terrace that looks over the rooftops of Teltow. Grimm's also runs hotels at Potsdamer Platz and in Mitte in Berlin, and in Hanau.
Getting there
Teltow Stadt station on the S25 S-Bahn line is a few minutes' walk away, and bus 626 stops at Kanada-Allee. BER Airport is about 30 minutes by car or 40 minutes by train. The hotel has a 24-hour underground garage on site for delegates who drive.
