A beautiful place in the woods overlooking Heidelberg. The room was recently redone. The staff was very friendly and spoke fluent English. The view is breathtaking. Parking in front for just 9 Euros. Now, you’d better have a car to be back and forth between the hotel and town. The funicular / tram works till 7 pm.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in and explore Heidelberg! It was fun staying above the city instead of in it as were able to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. Getting around wasn’t as easy as if you were staying in the city proper but we found taxi, uber, freenow, the bus and the funicular as helpful ways to get around even in the rain! Make sure to enjoy the view and the surrounding trails. The breakfast buffet was also fantastic! I will say the only down side of our trip was that the WiFi kept cutting in and out while we were relaxing in our room. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

Amazing!! It’s right at the top of funicular train from town, so easy to get to town or back from town. Plenty of parking if you drive and amazing, truly amazing views!! The hiking is top notch down to the Castle, recommend the funicular back up. Rooms are gorgeous, clean, simple, with warm and cozy bedding and towels. Hit the sauna for a very warm warm up.

The hotel is quite lovely. Sits atop a mountain overlooking Heidelberg. Nice restaurant and bar. The funicular train to Heidelberg stops there. I wish I had brought a bike. Very popular for cyclists

I was thoroughly satisfied with my stay at this hotel. The view was stunning, and everything from the staff’s hospitality to the quality and atmosphere of the breakfast was truly excellent. The room, including the bathroom and toilet, was exceptionally spacious and comfortable. I also had dinner at the on-site restaurant, which was delicious. I genuinely regretted that I was only staying for one night. It deserved more time. One moment that stood out was during check-in, when a staff member kindly informed me that parking outside the hotel was free, while the hotel’s own parking was paid. I truly appreciated this level of attentiveness, even though I ultimately chose to park inside. This is a hotel I would love to return to without hesitation.

Great hotel

Great hotel, clean with amenities (though we didn’t take advantage as much as we should have). The view of Heidelberg was amazing. Only downside was that it was a little bit of a hike to get to the city, but we knew that going in. The view of the city was amazing though.

We had a good stay. The staff were nice. The breakfast was excellent. We are dissatisfied regarding the charge for the breakfast. Firstly, I was under the impression that breakfast for 3 was included in our room booking charge. The hotel said no! But they insisted on charging €20 per day for each room i.e. their charge for 2 persons in each room. But we were only 2 adults and 1 child. Very unfair and probably not right. I do feel cheated!

We loved our stay! Breakfast was good and parking was easy. Not free, but easy. Only thing I could say is that we got a balcony room and the person below us smoked on their balcony and it billowed into our room at night even though we had the door/windows closed.

It could have been one of my best stays only if the management was better. Too many vacant rooms but they put most guests on the first floor next to each other. I could hear all the noise and sounds from neighbors and also tourists around the hotel.

Wonderful roof-top sauna, a fine bar, good breakfast. Direct access to the funicular to Heidelberg, but do note the early closing times! The hotel restaurant is large, noisy, and has a limited offering of mainly local dishes. But it is OK.

Breathtaking views.

Absolutely amazing. Views and facilities breathtaking. However, be aware that it can be expensive and require timing to get up and down from the the city if you don’t have a car. Bus is 3.20 euros one way, runs once an hour. Tram is 10 euros one way. It starts at 9 am and last one up is 7:20ish pm. Taxi about 20 euros.
