The hotel is in a great location and staff are really helpful. The bed was super comfortable. Sadly we asked for a quiet room but we overlooked the main square and it was quite noisy. Our room was not serviced, even though we left the sign on the door for servicing. The hotel staff in reception supplied us with things we needed like toilet paper and new towels and water. If you are going in winter, they have no AC but you can open the windows.

Exceeded expectations!

I loved our room here, it felt like home. We had a beautiful view of the castle, an exceedingly large bathroom and a very comfortable bed. The location was very close to everywhere we wanted to walk and wasn't too difficult to take a bus from the main train station.

The Goldener Falke hotel in Heidelburg overlooks right onto Marketplatz where the part of the Heidelburg Christmas market is. Its also just a few steps from the Funicular that takes you up to Heidelburg castle. The hotel is small, but extremely comfortable. Great breakfasts in the morning, and the staff are very helpful. This hotel was the cutest/most memorable of our recent 5 city Christmas Market tour through Europe.
