Great hotel, well-equipped room, very good, plentiful breakfast buffet. Gladly again at any time!Since we were just passing through, the location was important to us: accessibility from the motorway and being able to arrive late in the evening. Both were 100% fulfilled.

Great, small but nice 4-star hotel in Leimen, in the Heidelberg catchment area.We were welcomed and instructed in a very nice and friendly manner.Room No. 130, 2x breakfast + 4x breakfast (1.50 euros per person more expensive than for overnight guests) for our companions who did not stay at the hotel.Spacious, bright double room on the 3rd floor, private bathroom, balcony, air conditioning, technically high-quality equipment and great mattresses, as well as a flawless WiFi connection and your own, well-stocked minibar.Perfect!Excellent breakfast, large selection, fresh egg dishes and bacon, as well as various types of yoghurt, fruit and muesli in small glasses. Lovingly presented and continually replenished by the attentive service staff. There was nothing to complain about. Total price: 338.10 euros (double room 224.10 euros, internal breakfast 54 euros, external breakfast 60 euros)Great hotel, clear recommendation. We would love to come back.

Rooms were OK and equipped with air conditioning. Unfortunately there were expired foods in the minibar. The smell of the restaurant is very pungent in the stairwell. Good breakfast selection. Breakfast room very small and cramped. Lobby is not worth mentioning. Noisy street directly in front of the hotel.
