Top Heidelberg Zoo Hotel Reviews

Hotel Europäischer Hof Heidelberg

10/10 Excellent

"Upscale hotel with very personable staff. Bar and dining were delicious."

Hotel Bayrischer Hof

10/10 Excellent

"Large spacious room, was clean upon arrival."

Premier Inn Heidelberg City Bahnstadt

8/10 Good

"Clean room, comfortable"

PLAZA Premium Heidelberg

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely , modern hotel in a great location just on the edge of old town. It is a a bit of a walk to the castle if you have mobility issues but not an issue for us, as we like hiking/walking and the multi-lingual staff will assist with calling a taxi if needed. We had a junior suite on the top floor that has a balcony with a city view and it was perfect for 2 adults & a teen. Major plus was functional air conditioning in October!!! We stayed at other hotels in Germany & France that advertised air conditioning but then would not allow us to turn it on from our room during certain seasons. I highly recommend adding the breakfast on when booking - it was a great price for what you got. The breakfast was served in the rooftop bar area so it had a great view and had extensive hot/cold options (sausage, eggs, bacon, pastries, cereal, veggies, potato salad , etc). My only suggestion to management would be to add a second coffee machine - they only had one and it was having problems so there was a very long wait on some of the days."

Hilton Heidelberg

8/10 Good

"We didn't like the first room we were given but the manager immediately gave us a different room which was much better. She was very friendly and clearly was doing her best to satisfy us. We very much appreciated her efforts."

Qube Hotel Bahnstadt

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel with a good Restuarant. Convenient location with Aldis close by."

Leonardo Hotel Heidelberg City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Very kind and helpful staff. Room was clean. Excellent continental breakfast - lots of variety and consistently kept clean and restocked by staff. The experience felt much higher value than what we paid for."

Aparthotel Adagio Heidelberg

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the Adagio Apartelle in Heidelberg was fantastic, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The true standout of the property is the staff—everyone I interacted with was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely willing to go out of their way to help out with any request. On top of the excellent service, I really appreciated the in-room amenities. Having such a well-equipped and thoughtfully designed space made the visit so much more comfortable and convenient. A wonderful experience all around!"

Hotel Chester Heidelberg

8/10 Good

"Not far from the city center by car, quiet modern, good ac, everything works"
