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. ##### Khoi Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Helga 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities very friendly staff, nice breakfast and clean rooms ##### Helga Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 15 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Great location, beautiful hotel and friendly staff :) ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Romy 30 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice hotel, breakfast was very good, silent rooms! ##### Romy Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nichola 10 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Another fantastic stay ##### Nichola Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barton 12 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### My favorite place to stay in Heidelberg.

I am told there is a market on Saturday and Wednesday in the square that the rooms face, so I would expect some early morning noise as that gets set up. Breakfast was excellent, and less than €10\. ##### Barton Stayed 1 night in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean 13 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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. ##### Sean Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn 28 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel was lovely. Our room had a gorgeous view over a lovely open platz (though the bar was a little lively late into a Wednesday night with windows open). The rooms were extremely comfortable, the morning buffet was lovely, and the staff were warm and attentive. The location was easily walkable to old town and the castle for those who don't have issues walking on tour. We also enjoyed a drink in the platz outside the restaurant while there. It's an affordable, lovely place to stay. Thank you Rafaela! ##### Dawn Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fred 14 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The hotel and staff were excellent. Major plus is this hotel is only 4 years old and has A/C in its rooms. It is a little bit of a walk to the old city of Heidelberg a little over a mile but if you walk along the river it is nice. Their is not parking so you will need to park in the parking garage which is about a 10 minute walk. Overall this hotel was a very nice stay. ##### Fred Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tsz Kin Chris 28 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort There are a lot of surprises ##### Tsz Kin Chris Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Wentworth House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bath-Hotels-Wentworth-House-Hotel.h1381514.Hotel-Information) > > [Wedding Hotels in St.-Rémy-de-Provence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Remy-De-Provence-Hotels-Wedding-Hotel.0-0-d6223611-tWeddingHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [EmiLu Design Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-EmiLu-Hotel.h60100763.Hotel-Information) > > [1 Apse Castle Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shanklin-Hotels-1-Apse-Castle-Cottages.h45661992.Hotel-Information) > > [McDreams Hotel Stuttgart-City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-McDreams-Hotel-Stuttgart-City.h524995.Hotel-Information) > > [Scandic Stuttgart Europaviertel (Neueröffnung/Reopening)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-Scandic-Stuttgart-Europaviertel.h555031.Hotel-Information) > > [Romantic Hotels in Crawley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Crawley-Hotels-Romantic-Hotel.0-0-d4612-tRomanticHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Acle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Acle-Hotels.d6053596.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Edgbaston Stadium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edgbaston-Stadium-Hotels.0-l6084089-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Motel One Stuttgart-Hauptbahnhof](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-Motel-One-Stuttgart-Hauptbahnhof.h66420436.Hotel-Information) > > [Walton Hall Hotel & Spa by Sunday](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwick-Hotels-Walton-Hall-Hotel-Spa-By-Sunday.h1322156.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Boulevard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-Novum-Hotel-Boulevard-Stuttgart-City.h18783.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Parks Dorset](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dorset-Holiday-Parks.d6046198-aaHolidayParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in North East England](https://www.expedia.co.uk/North-East-England-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d553248635975748949-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Spa Hotels in Zamalek](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Zamalek-Cairo-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-n6069791-0-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sapphire Hotel Blackpool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Sapphire-Hotel-Blackpool.h108503547.Hotel-Information) > > [PLAZA INN Rieker Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stuttgart-Hotels-Novum-Hotel-Rieker-Stuttgart-Hauptbahnhof.h53946.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels.d178279.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Guanacaste](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Guanacaste.d6247738.Hotel-Destinations) > > [2 bedroom apartment - Los Geranios, Las Americas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Adeje-Hotels-2-Bedroom-Apartment-Los-Geranios.h28857238.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Cars ### Packages > [Sky Zone Indoor Trampoline Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sky-Zone-Indoor-Trampoline-Park-Rumford.d553248621561868032.Attraction) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/all-inclusive-holidays/117/Mexico) > > [Rogoznica Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rogoznica.d6123642.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Rhode Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhode-Island.dx241) ---
