Hotel Am Schloss

Perched in Heidelberg's Altstadt above parking garage P12, this family-run hotel sits steps from Heidelberg Castle, Marktplatz, the Hercules Fountain and the Bergbahn entrance. It’s within easy walking distance of the city centre and the Neckar River — pet-friendly and perfectly placed for castle views.

A traditional, family-operated hideaway with 24 guestrooms. Rooms include minibars, cable TV, desks and private bathrooms with showers, complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Many rooms — and the rooftop terrace — offer direct views of Heidelberg Castle and the old town; elevator access runs from the parking garage up to the hotel floor.

Take in castle vistas from the rooftop terrace and stay connected with complimentary wireless internet. On-site parking (P12), a tour desk for local excursions, laundry/press services, a safe-deposit box, luggage storage and multilingual staff keep things easy. Pets are welcome.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout and in-room desks make short remote stints straightforward; 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and a safe-deposit box add practical convenience for business travelers.

A complimentary buffet breakfast is served each morning to fuel days exploring the city and castle.
