Great location. Very friendly people. The rooms were nice. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
Gary, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This hotel was perfectly located between the castle and the bridge, on the Marktplatz. The staff was wonderful, helping us to find the parking garages and restaurants. We would stay there again. Beautiful city!
Janet, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The room and the bathroom was dirty. Shower about to fall off the wall. Neither the room or the hotel in all was maintained at all.

8/10 Good

Quaint, older hotel right in the heart of the cathedral square. Great service. Room had a lot of space. Clean and comfortable. Solid breakfast included. No air conditioning, but a big fan and all of the windows opened to allow a lot of cool air. Some street noise later into the summer nights, which I liked. No lift. Had to port luggage up stairs. No PSD ports, so just use an adapter.

10/10 Excellent

Amazingly friendly staff, convenient location in the old town. Would recommend!
Nathaniel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The hotel is very conveniently located at the corner of the marketplace, the center of Heidelberg. It is also right next to the beautiful bridge that pedestrian could walk on and have a great view of the city and the castle. The staff is very friendly and professional and courteous. Our room has a nice size and many windows for natural breeze and air. It also includes the decent quality breakfast, which is very convenient. The only challenge is for the Uber driver to pick us up. We called an Uber to pick us up to the train station, it took the Uber driver a long time to find us. We had to cancel one order Uber driver prior because he couldn’t find us.

We had an excellent stay! The accommodations were spacious and comfortable. The location was wonderful. We even caught a glimpse of Sweden’s Queen Sylvia from our room window!

10/10 Excellent

Great location, friendly staff. Quaint. My only complaint is there is no elevator and the stairs are narrow and steep.
Susan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Every thing is worth the price except the noise of the outside, the group of the youth chated in a loud noise until the midnight. It could be occasionally happened.
Dan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

the hotels good location compensates for the facilities and condition of the rooms. included breakfast and overall price performance is quite ok!
matthias, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

The location was great, except it was on the corner of a busy restaurant and bar area, loud music and people all night, so not much sleep. The room was clean, except for a lot of stains on the carpeting. They need to start the breakfast earlier, most places start at 6:30 or 7:00. This place not until 8:00, we had an early flight so we missed out on breakfast. The Korean restaurant next door was good.
Lori, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Right in the center of Old Town, Heidelberg. Within walking distance to the funicular to the castle. Night time the old town restaurants come alive. Architectural marvels everywhere in old town. Would definitely go back.
Karen, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

great location & people, but very poor facilities

Staff and location great. The room it was old, not clean, not well conserve. Thanks to the location and the people that work there it was good.
Hugo a, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We fell in love with this place. The staff was so accommodating, friendly, joyful! The location is perfect to access the castle, shops and restaurants. Highly recommend it! We arrived too early to check in. The staff let us leave our luggage with them behind the desk.
Sara, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

In the heart of the city. Wonderful staff. Lovely breakfast. Facility is NOT handicap-accessible. It is within a two-minute walk of the Bergbahn to the castle and Bus 20 stop to/from the train station. American travelers be advised this is a fine place to stay if you are open to a comfortable, clean place to stay a night ot two.

Old World Charm-For Better or Worse

Hotel Am Rathaus has old European charm which is to say small rooms, no elevators but great staff and breakfast. It was very noisy at night since Heidelberg is a university town and they like to party. Pretty much right outside the window. Parking is a quarter mile away and you have to drag luggage from there or nearest street access a block away. That would be over cobblestone too. The facility itself is charming and you can imagine Mark Twain staying there 150 years ago. Maybe during summer break.
Greg, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The accommodation is very old and there is no lift for those with limited mobility. On the other hand: personnel is very friendly, room is very clean, decent breakfast and the location is perfect.

10/10 Excellent

This hotel is perfectly located for the Christmas market. This town is fantastic. The staff was unbelievably nice and very helpful. A couple of notes - 1 there is no elevator so be prepared to climb the steps with your bags. 2 - parking is not onsite. 3 - it is not easy to find this hotel due to very narrow roads and pedestrians. HOWEVER, once you are settled this place is awesome!

8/10 Good

No elevator makes it, needs a little effort to bring up the suitcases to the 4th floor :)
Thomas, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

On vacation and have stayed in 9 hotels throughout Europe. 6th floor up a tight spiral staircase. The place is old so of course no elevator . Crazy uneven floor with one bed that was way too low. Very nice helpful staff though and a good öbreakfast. Good location and historic so there’s bound to be glitches.
