10/10 Exceptional

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful! We enjoyed ot 2 night stay there, the room was wonderful and the air conditioning felt good on such a hot day! There was a small market on Wednesday across from the hotel that was wonderful, and the location was perfect, just a few blocks from the river and walking distance to markt platz. Highly recommend this hotel!

Great location

We loved the location of this hotel. It’s located on a lovely little square with bars, cafes, bakeries, and even a market while we were there. An easy walk to the old city. Staff in the hotel were super friendly and helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel “across the river” but near The Philosopher’s Way. Vibrant, but safe neighborhood. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. The staff are very kind and helpful.
Parking can be a bit tight, but there are spots to be found.
This city is made for walking!

Staff was wonderful, excellent communication, very helpful. Room was spotless. Everything worked great. View from the room was wonderful. Location was wonderful. Wish I had more time to explore the immediate area. Will definitely stay there again
Woke up to this view every day. One of the highlights of my trip!
Verified review

8/10 Very good

This is a very well maintained, modest hotel in a lovely part of town. The staff is very friendly and accommodating but note that the reception desk closes between 10:30p and 6:30a. The hotel is small and not spectacular but for a simple, straightforward stay in Heidelberg on a charming square (with a farmers market some mornings) it’s really exceptional.

Great new hotel

We booked this hotel while traveling Germany; it was close to downtown. The hotel is nice, the area is nice and lots of options, and only a 20 min walk to the bridge. We ended up with the handicapped room. Growing up with a handicapped mother this was one of the best handicapped bathrooms I had ever seen.
