"We loved this place! We traveled to Heidelberg with our 14 and 16 year old boys. The room we stayed in was wonderful and clean and it had air conditioning! That is super rare and super wonderful for here in Europe! The breakfast was delightful and the staff were so very kind. We drove our car and parking was a little bit unique (the staff at the hotel helped us out greatly). When next in Heidelberg we know exactly where we will stay!"

Top Heidelberg City Centre Hotel Reviews

NH Collection Heidelberg

8/10 Good

"The room was ok. The gym and the spa are very basic."

Hotel Villa Marstall

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely, small hotel situated right by the river and uni campus in the old town. Our main floor room was large, clean and bright. No AC but there was a fan to cool the room at night which worked well (we visited early July during a warm spell). Front desk staff were lovely and helpful. However be sure to take note of the limited front desk hours if you are arriving after 15:30. Breakfast in the cellar was charming and delicious!"

Hotel Am Schloss

8/10 Good

"I loved staying at this hotel! It was in a great location walkable to almost anything you want to do in old town. The funicular to get up to the castle is right outside the elevator, which was really nice. The breakfast buffet was delicious. I was even offered fruit and a roll on the morning that I had to leave before the buffet was open, which was really sweet. My only complaint was the lack of air-conditioning. It was around 90° the days I stayed and got pretty uncomfortable in the room. Otherwise, great place to stay!"

Hotel Heidelberger Hof
