Hotels meet various needs for various travelers. If you want a small, inexpensive, comfortable and clean hotel in Heidelberg, Germany at an outstanding location near the historic center of the city, operated by a very small, hard-working honest staff, the Altstadt could be the place for you. Given these realities, the services available at upper-class chain hotels are not there. Nor is there parking on the property. But if you arrive by air and train, are self sufficient and patient, the Altstadt could be perfect. I would gladly stay there again.

The check in process was terrible. We were not given a booking number from expedia only an itinerary number. So we could not get our key. We had to pay roaming charges and call expedia to get assitance because we could not contact anyone using the phone number provided by Altstadt because it is just an automated message that hangs up at the end. There is clearly a miscommunication between Altstadt and expedia because we were not given the correct information to properly check in and it was a poor experience for us.

Can't physically get into Hotel
We couldn't get into the hotel. We were later told this hotel has an entry code email sent to guest for entry. However this code is only on sent to those lucky enough to book on certain websites. Hotels.com is not one of them. So we showed up before the advertised check-in time to find no one at reception, a key box without a code, and a phone numer that goes straight to voicemail. Just before giving up and booking another hotel, by chance someone came by and let us in. This is not a position anyone should be put in. If there is any chance of this happing to your guest you should fix this right away. However, after going back through the reviews we found others with this issue back to 2017. We fail to believe that they are in unaware of this recurring problem. Low cost solutions that randomly leave paying customers on the street is unacceptable!

This is not a 3 stars hotel
If you book by hotels.com, no one gives you any info on how to check in if you arrive late. The reception was supposed to be open until 20:00. I arrived at 19:55 (because of late trains) and no one was there. No one answered the telephone number that is on hotels.com. I desperately asked another hotel reception to help me (I don't speak German). They finally succeded in contacting someone of the hotel (I don't know how) and they told me to use the reservation number to get the key by a machine. The number, anyway, was different from the hotel.com reservation number so still I haven't understand which number you were meant to enter... but on top of that, this is not a 3 stars hotel by far. Maximum 2. Cheap and anonymous furniture, very small bathroom. The positive thing is the kindness of the reception guy during breakfast.

A fun experience,
This is an unassuming little hotel in the most convenient spot. It doesn’t have a lobby or elevator, no refrigerator, kettle or microwave. But what it did have was the most comfortable bed, cozy suite with a little balcony and nice view out back. They washed our clothes for a small fee and were very helpful and friendly. Loved our stay,

Loved the location close to the Alstadt. We were denied breakfast because we were told that we booked with Expedia. Very important...we were told we did not need to make reservations for airport ride. Not true as we almost missed a ride to the airport. It was very loud in the alley. We did not feel very welcomed. We would not refer anyone to this hotel and will not stay there again.
