Lovely stay

Lovely family run small hotel with B&B atmosphere. Room (w/ A/C) was comfortable. Breakfast buffet was nicely laid out and coffee was good. Convenient walking distance to stadtmarkt and palace. While there is no bar, small fridge with beer, water and soft drinks in the hallway, and a shaded sitting area in the yard. Ample parking in the neighborhood if the lot overflows. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Small hotel with nice touches

The location was ideal for a visit to the Schwetzingen Castle! Plus a free entry to the garden was just across the street. I liked the little extras like the apples, water, treats on the pillow. Up to date decor in the room and the drink fridge with Apfel Scharle for purchase was nice.
