Great breakfast variety in a very nice breakfast room. Hotel was in a great location, walkable to everything, close to the river and castle. Our room was a little noisy as it faced the street, but didn’t keep me awake.

This is a great location with friendly staff in the old town. It s in old town so it is an older building but the room was spacious and clean. Heidelberg is also a unversity town so expect to hear the students socializing in the later evening. We felt very safe when we were out.

Quaint, older hotel right in the heart of the cathedral square. Great service. Room had a lot of space. Clean and comfortable. Solid breakfast included. No air conditioning, but a big fan and all of the windows opened to allow a lot of cool air. Some street noise later into the summer nights, which I liked. No lift. Had to port luggage up stairs. No PSD ports, so just use an adapter.

The hotel is very conveniently located at the corner of the marketplace, the center of Heidelberg. It is also right next to the beautiful bridge that pedestrian could walk on and have a great view of the city and the castle. The staff is very friendly and professional and courteous. Our room has a nice size and many windows for natural breeze and air. It also includes the decent quality breakfast, which is very convenient. The only challenge is for the Uber driver to pick us up. We called an Uber to pick us up to the train station, it took the Uber driver a long time to find us. We had to cancel one order Uber driver prior because he couldn’t find us.

We fell in love with this place. The staff was so accommodating, friendly, joyful! The location is perfect to access the castle, shops and restaurants. Highly recommend it! We arrived too early to check in. The staff let us leave our luggage with them behind the desk.
