Very nice hotel in the best location of the city. You are at the doorstep of the old town you really can’t get a better location. Even though it’s in the heart of the old town, it’s very quiet in the rooms, which were also nice. Bed was comfortable and the accommodation were great. Sam, who checked me in was so friendly and inviting, he made our stay very pleasant

Friendly staff at check in and very clean rooms! Good breakfast for additional charge- coffee was not so good! 😊 When we asked for extra pillows we were surprised with size! We were very happy! We would stay again in the future as it’s located in old Heidelberg and has such interesting history and beautiful architecture! Danke! 😊🇩🇪
