Charlottenburg

Comfortable

One interior and the formal garden fit without rushing.

best fit

Sanssouci

Compressed

Travel and one palace leave little room for the park.

needs more time

My practical rule: below 5.5 hours, stay in Berlin and choose Charlottenburg. At 6.5 hours or more, Sanssouci starts to work as the palace-and-park day people imagine.
