You could use
qm terminal <ID>
to connect to the serial console. Ctrl + o will quit the session.
You need to configure your VMs to provide a serial console, e.g. by adding "console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8" to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub and running "grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg".

We don’t have any client machine in the server room, so
when we fix something in the room (cables, routing, etc…), we need to
go out and check the VMs on another machine outside the room,
sometimes making us come back, etc…
Is it really that difficult to get a laptop in the server room to manage
the servers?
I know VMs can be controlled by command line using qemu, but is there
another way to locally control the machines on the Proxmox server,
except by installing a desktop manager and pointing the web browser on
localhost:8006? Is it even safe to do that?
Personally I would avoid installing a full Desktop environment on the PVE
hosts. Apart from adding unnecessary load, it can also
expand the attack surface on the servers. If you insist though, I would
recommend a simple Window Manager instead,
something like Fluxbox for example.
We have a KVM in our bay, we can physically access the machines, is
there maybe a way to physically be connected to a VM (as if we were
physically connected to a Windows VM for instance)?
None that I'm aware of, but sounds like you are trying to over complicate
things... :)
