Excellent location but keep an extra eye on which room you reserve. The one we reserved apparently was the one whose window opens to hallway which made it quite claustrophobic. If you prefer firm mattresses, beware, this might not be the most comfortable sleep you may have.

Great location. Room is nice. Due to the hotel being a historic building there is no air conditioning so the room is very warm on hot days. There is no parking or drop off area so be prepared to walk with luggage on cobbled streets from the parkade.

The hotel was in a great location, staff was friendly and rooms had character. Hotels.com advertised that it had air conditioning but it does not, it has fans. We came when it was 30C/90F+ and we didn’t sleep well because of only one fan. We understand more historical buildings won’t have AC, we just wish it wasn’t advertised that way. Otherwise, comfortable beds, great darkening curtains, clean bathroom and lots of character.

We would stay here again, just not when it’s a heat wave.

I loved this place! It was very relaxing! I honestly couldn’t have been happier. It is a little ways away from where all the action is, which is mostly good, but it’s central enough that within 10 or 15 minutes you can be in interesting places. I would definitely stay here again.

First was Sebastian- one of the owners- who made our trip special by upgrading us to a Junior Suite. The room was large and in great condition and all the staff were welcoming and charming. It really is a wonderful place and the outside fits in with the old town look and feel. Everything inside was modern and very well kept. The location is perfect and I highly recommend staying at this hotel.

I stayed at Hotel Zur Alten Brücke for just one night, and while the stay was short, the experience was unforgettable — thanks especially to Sebastian at the front desk.

When I arrived, Sebastian kindly helped me with my luggage and even brought it up to my room, which I truly appreciated after a long day of travel. The hotel itself was charming, comfortable, and perfectly located in the heart of Heidelberg’s old town.

When it was time to check out, Sebastian once again went above and beyond. He helped me with my heavy bags, walking with me over the cobblestone streets all the way to the Old Bridge (Alte Brücke) so I could catch a taxi from there. Later, after I had already left, I realized I had forgotten one of my bags. To my surprise and relief, Sebastian answered my call right away, helped me through every step, and personally arranged to have my bag shipped safely to me in the U.S.

His kindness, professionalism, and genuine care turned what could have been a stressful situation into a truly positive and memorable experience.

If you’re ever in Heidelberg, I highly recommend Hotel Zur Alten Brücke — and if Sebastian at the front desk is on duty, you’ll be in the best hands possible.

My second time at this hotel. Same charm, lovely staff, very comfortable beds, super clean. I will come back when I go hiking in the fall. It’s so close to everything, if you are in town for shopping and dining you will love it, if you want to explore the hiking trails across the bridge - you will love it too. Thanks again for the wonderful sleep :)

The suites here are very beautiful. I love the decor. Very clean. The best location (in my opinion) because it’s right by the bridge to access the hiking trails and right in the heart of the downtown area so you are close to the shops, and restaurants. I forgot to leave my review back in March when I went for my birthday - but I’m leaving one now, on the day I’m going back :) boutique hotel lovers will love this place.

This is a lovely hotel in a fantastic location, however there is a 'but' !
The owner / chef (I think) is quite rude and unhelpful, but the rest of the staff were very pleasant. If he is the chef, he should stay in the kitchen, because despite his poor social skills, he can cook. The food is very good.
The rooms are lovely, however there is no A/C so you might need the windows open.
The hotels fantastic location can then be a problem as it can be very lively and as such noisy. This isnt a criticism or complaint, just an observation as it might bother some people.
Finally, despite the implication in their list of ammenities, there is no onsite parking of any sort. There is free on street parking for motorcycles a few hundred metres away, but if that doesnt suit or you're in a car you have to drive to public parking (which the hotel subsidise). We were unfortunate in that we turned up on a holiday weekend and all the public car parks were full and we nneded to queue to get in as other cars left.
Not the hotels fault but worthy of note.
Finally tho' id reiterate the fantastic location, great rooms and good food in the restaurant.

Location is fantastic! Right at the base of the old bridge. Very walkable area. Hotel is very quaint and charming. The restaurant attached to the hotel serves very good traditional German food for dinner. Very lovely place.

Staff are friendly and the beds were comfortable.

Our room did not have a safe or a small fridge. Not sure if the others do. Internet was quite spotty.

We were told that because we booked with Expedia, the breakfast was not included but we did not have that experience with two other hotels we booked on Expedia in Frankfurt and Nuremberg.

This hotel is a hidden gem located at the old bridge and gate. Great location making it easy to walk both sides of the river and access to the castle and all the charm of old tiwn Heidelberg. At night cross the bridge to the right to get stunning pictures of the bridge, city, and castle lite up.

It is located in a great location, and the rooms are comfortable and clean, and the staff friendly if not the most helpful.
The only downside is the restaurant. It says you can come in and enjoy a drink, but that is not the case. You can eat in there after 6PM, but you are not allowed to come in and have a drink.
Overall a nice place, but probably wouldn’t stay here again.

Fantastic, we will save this one to our favorites! Location was perfect to walk to all attractions or plan to rent an ebike from the front desk and explore further. The rooms were spacious, clean and quiet despite being in a central location ( that saying a lot because I am a very light sleeper). Wish were there for a longer trip but we will definitely book again at this hotel.

Historical hotel in a great location in the Altstadt. Staff very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant has great regional offerings. Please note, some of the rooms only have a window to an indoor hallway and not the outdoors. I apparently unknowingly signed up for such a room. When I raised it with hotel staff, they quickly gave me a different room with windows to the outdoors. However, I was lucky they had such a room available as the hotel is very popular.

Very nice hotel and restaurant in the heart of Heidelberg. Great location, easy to walk everywhere. We stayed in the annex which was down the street from the main hotel but easy walk and we were able to pull our car up to load and unload bags. Very clean room and decent size. Only complaint was that it was a little noisy since our room faced a Main Street but we adjusted to it.

It was a very cute hotel in a great location. Good breakfast! They told us they had a deal with the parking lot near the hotel. They may have, but they had no spots and the girl who checked us in offered no help. We were on our own, despite me emailing them prior to our trip about this. Also, it was hotter than Hades. The hotel advertises air conditioning but they don’t turn it on until 10 pm!! I asked one man about it our first night and he just basically said too bad we don’t turn it on until 10 and he wouldn’t even give us a fan. Then it took until 2 am to cool the room down. So we got no sleep the first night. They had ONE job…give me a comfortable place to sleep! However, the second night, they redeemed themselves. (Which is why I gave them 4 stars instead of 1). At breakfast the next day, I begged this very nice man to give us some air (a different man from the night before). He asked my room number and turned on the air and left it on the rest of the time we were there. From then on, it was perfect!!

Terribly hot rooms with no windows in all rooms!!

This has to be one of the worst hotel rooms I have ever stayed in.
The room was completely airless and excessively hot.
Although the photo of the room shows windows these only open to an internal corridor to access other rooms.
The room, in summer, is not suitable for guests in my opinion, and should only be used as a sauna!
At 1 am until 3am I had to sit outside to cool off.
Beware I was told, on check out, that there are several rooms that are ‘landlocked’ and the receptionist confirmed this was not stated on the website!!!

Great stay!! We booked the room with the balcony - it was absolutely adorable. It is on a busier street but with the windows closed you can’t hear anything. Great service, very friendly, and felt very safe! Definitely our favorite hotel on our week-long Germany vacation. HIGHLY recommend, we will be staying here when we come back!

Great location! I was in an apartment separate from the main hotel with a view of the river. Clean room but the location in a separate apartment building down a dark side street was unexpected. The road noise is also pretty significant day and night as the room overlooks a busy intersection and the Main Street that runs along the river. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

We had to pay twice for our room.

We booked our stay at Hotel Zur Alten Brucke through Hotels.com. When we checked in, I had a photocopy of the reservation. I also had a photocopy of my credit card statements showing all of our hotel stays in Germany had been paid in full. At check in, they told us we had not paid and needed to pay again. I showed the man my reservation that says \"amount paid $137.28\" and my credit card statement that shows the charge went through. We had to pay again. When we got back home, I checked this again. I called Hotels.com and I e-mailed the hotel. We still have not received a refund for having to pay twice for our hotel stay. We have been to Europe 7 times. This is the first time we have been totally ripped off by a hotel. This is very suprising. In the past, we have trusted the hotel staff at all hotels. We know now that there are hotels that are dishonest. Be careful.

Great location near to the main points of interest. Lovely place but lacking a few basics. Difficult with a lot of luggage and car, having to park 10 min walk away. Nice room, no coffee making facilities or fridge. Breakfast was average with food uncovered, so avoided what I would have liked due to flies. Nice guy on reception but we wouldn’t return.
