This hotel is in dire need of a refit and new furnishings eg, curtains that actually block out light a shower that can be used as a shower a comfy mattress and pillows that don’t feel like you’re sleeping on popcorn!

The staff is so friendly and supportive. Location is near the tram station to Heidelberg, pubs, bakeries, taxi parking… A flaw was some strange loud noise in the night, which sounds like from some machine
24.03.2024 Alessandro
It was clean. Bedroom was comfortable. It is near the bus station and not that far from the train station. We only saw people at the reception on the very last day. The check-in was weird, because we had to call someone to give us a pin code to open a locker with our key, and I think that should be managed with email or chat, if guests are arriving late in the night. In our room the wifi was inexistent. Not everyone in the reception (when there is someone) speak other than german.

We booked several rooms for a family gathering. Everyone was very much satisfied at all levels. The hotel is conveniently located in the city center and near the tram stop, from where one can get to Heidelberg within 15 mins.

I highly recommend this place. The rooms are big and clean. The location is great and you can take a tram to heidelberg. There are a lot of nice restaurants near the hotel. They also have a free parking.

The staff is really friendly. I forgot my wallet at the nearby reastaurant when we left and a member of the staff went to the restaurant picked it up and sent it to me. They didn't even have to do that and I had already paid, but they still did. I'm so grateful.
