We loved the location of this hotel. It’s located on a lovely little square with bars, cafes, bakeries, and even a market while we were there. An easy walk to the old city. Staff in the hotel were super friendly and helpful.
Beautiful hotel “across the river” but near The Philosopher’s Way. Vibrant, but safe neighborhood. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. The staff are very kind and helpful.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was wonderful, excellent communication, very helpful. Room was spotless. Everything worked great. View from the room was wonderful. Location was wonderful. Wish I had more time to explore the immediate area. Will definitely stay there again
This is a very well maintained, modest hotel in a lovely part of town. The staff is very friendly and accommodating but note that the reception desk closes between 10:30p and 6:30a. The hotel is small and not spectacular but for a simple, straightforward stay in Heidelberg on a charming square (with a farmers market some mornings) it’s really exceptional.
Excellent, small quiet hotel very conveniently located outside the old town but close eneough to walk there, and with normal neighborhood serving stores nearby. Good breakfast selection from a small but full buffet
The location is close to the old part of town. Easy transportation access. The nicest part is the staff is very helpful, pleasant and I would definitely stay there again.
Clean and modern rooms, very friendly staff, good breakfast. The location is golden with several bars and restaurants nearby, a short walk to Philosopher's Walk and across the bridge to the Old Town. Saturday market right in front of the door.
Good location in the new town, close to the bridge to get to the old town, without the crowds of tourists. Looks out onto square with outdoor cafes. Staff friendly and helpful.
We booked this hotel while traveling Germany; it was close to downtown. The hotel is nice, the area is nice and lots of options, and only a 20 min walk to the bridge.
We ended up with the handicapped room. Growing up with a handicapped mother this was one of the best handicapped bathrooms I had ever seen.
We had a super experience at Rafael Hotel. We were received by a very profesional and kind male receptionist- who really made us feal comfortable and was very servicial. We asked questions about the castle, and even he was busy before going home, he took his time to answer. I regret we did’t give him a good “trinkgeld” he deserve it. Home the hotel appreciates him.
