I really enjoyed staying at this hotel! It was nice, clean, conveniently located, quiet, and had a/c which was great during the hot summer weather. Staff were pleasant and helpful too.

The reception staff were very nice. The room was large and felt reasonably clean. However, the mattress cover was grubby and my sheet had small holes in it. We asked for water at reception and were given bottles but not told we would be charged for them, and although I dont mind paying for a bottle of water, it would have been good to be advised at the time rather than be presented with a bill for water at the end. It was very hot when we visited and there was no aircon, so we had to have the windows open. The steet noise was very loud until about 3am and started again at 5am. Other than that the room had everything we needed.
Convenient hotel for centre of Heidelberg. We were able to explore on foot from here without the need for public transport. Lots of cafes and restaurants nearby but hotel was just away from the centre in a reasonably quiet neighbourhood. Staff were friendly but quite anonymous…we didn’t need anything in particular during our stay so only saw them at check-in and out. Parking is just across the road, hidden away in an enclosed area of a side street.
Wonderful stay! I have stayed before and loved it then. The staff is friendly, breakfast is perfect. There is no A/C so the rooms can get warmer but a great hotel just outside the old town!

Very friendly and helpful staff, nice and clean rooms. Lovely hotel.
Excellent stay at the Heidelberg Exzellence Hotel. Hotel was nicely located to all amenities and attractions. The hotel was clean, and the staff was great.
The people are friendly and attentive. The property is well maintained. It is close enough to the altstadt that walking everywhere was no problem. The food recommendation from the receptionist “krokodil” was not very good and overpriced. Plenty of better places a short distance away. Otherwise all was great!
I had a studio room which had a kettle, fridge etc. Staff were great. It is located within walking distance of the old town and the train station but in a quiet neighbourhood
Triple room was quite large, had comfortable beds, funky lighting and a functional bathroom with good hot water supply. There was a portable air conditioner provided. Kitchenette did not have a microwave or cooking utensils, but still useful. We enjoyed the daily breakfast (17 euros). Staff were all very friendly and efficient. Short 5 min walk to transport and amenities. Quite a bit further to the old town, bridge and castle
This was a clean hotel with sizable room, we were 3 guests staying in a room.
The bathroom was well equipped and there was AC for the summer days.
The staff were very helpful in storing our luggage after checkout.
The checkin time is 2 PM which was a bit late for us, as we had travelled a long distance, would be nice to have a earlier checkin time
