Pros: charming historic building, room was comfortable; good breakfast. Cons: 3 bottles of liquid soap in room - 2 empty 1 with small amount which ran out the next day. No housekeeping on 2nd day. It took 4 ( four!) requests over several hours to get a bottle of soap handed to me. Towels were finally delivered at end of day ( used towels not removed). The desk clerk was very rude - he was apparently very put out that I was asking for basic items. There was no hairdryer in room and internet was very irregular.

The beds are extremely comfortable. The Wi-Fi and tv are sub-par, but we didn't stay at the beautiful and historical Ritter for the tv. The location, views, staff, breakfast, and surrounding dinner options are outstanding.

475-year-old building, beautifully renovated and kept up. Very friendly and helpful staff. Fabulous location, smack in the middle of old Heidelberg, right next to the Holy Ghost Church. On Sunday at 9:00, as it is summer and we had kept the windows open, we woke up to the sound of the church organ starting mass service. It was a first for both of us.

This hotel is old but well kept . It’s clean and staff is very friendly. It’s a historic building. Only thing I didn’t like was that you get one key for your room and the only way to lock the room from outside and inside is with the key .

This is a beautiful hotel in an excellent location. The rooms may not have the most modern amenities but they are comfortable and the view from my window was unbeatable. The service at the front desk was attentive and informative. Note that the hotel faces a very popular street and it can be loud with people until very late at night and again in the morning during trash pick up. The windows block most of the sound, but I prefer to have the fresh air with windows open. The one downside was the breakfast. Expedia said it would be free, but I was charged for it. Breakfast began at 8:00am, but when I went down at 8:30am the eggs were cold. The egs were also flavored like the bacon which is troubling when you are someone who does not eat pork. Go for the fantastic location and service. Don't go for the food. Americans should note that the hotel is not air conditioned.

Front desk staff very friendly. It’s an old hotel but that’s part of the charm. Like most places in Germany there is no air conditioning in the individual rooms (so don’t complain - this is common here) but the man at the front desk offered me a fan as I was staying on the top floor room. It was 33 degrees last weekend so it was very hot but the view from my window was amazing and it was conveniently close to the hiking path I travelled there for. Comfortable bed. Will definitely stay again :)

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

Fantastic Location in Heidelberg

We hit the jackpot when we made a last minute reservation in Heidelberg. We knew we wanted to be in walking distance of the Christmas Markets and had no idea this building is so historic and the second most photographed building in Heidelberg. We were literally steps away from the Markets and all the shopping. The hotel itself is beautiful and our room was very comfortable. The only slightly annoying thing was it was difficult to find anyone at reception; it seems maybe there have a staff shortage. I highly recommend this hotel and would stay there again.

Amazing history and perfect location!

This place is very old and was obviously renovated in the 90's and not much has been done since. However the staff is so nice, the history of the building and location cannot be beat! If you come and stay here, just know you will have to park in parking garage 12 and walk about 5 min to h hotel. I wish the room was a little bigger, a little more updated, and a little better stocked, but I would stay here again for sure!
