Great hotel, restaurant, location
Our junior suite was perfect for my sister and I. Very comfortable and cozy after a long day of sightseeing. Had a beautiful view of the castle. The restaurant was also excellent!

Perfect location, good value
Unbeatable location at the base of the Old Bridge, adjacent to Old Town and the University of Heidelberg. It would be 5-star with a larger room and individual temperature control. Staff went out of the way to be helpful.

Fantastic, we will save this one to our favorites! Location was perfect to walk to all attractions or plan to rent an ebike from the front desk and explore further. The rooms were spacious, clean and quiet despite being in a central location ( that saying a lot because I am a very light sleeper). Wish were there for a longer trip but we will definitely book again at this hotel.

If you are driving, parking options are extremely limited, but a great hotel in the old city. No AC, so in Jul/Aug might be too hot. Was nice in mid June.

Historical hotel in a great location in the Altstadt. Staff very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant has great regional offerings. Please note, some of the rooms only have a window to an indoor hallway and not the outdoors. I apparently unknowingly signed up for such a room. When I raised it with hotel staff, they quickly gave me a different room with windows to the outdoors. However, I was lucky they had such a room available as the hotel is very popular.

Couldn’t be a better location if you’re coming to Heidelberg. You’re literally in the heart of this becity yet tucked away from the noise of passing tourists and locals.
