Built in 1472, the hotel comprises a total of 20 suites spread over 2 floors. The hotel includes a reception and a bar. Two à la carte restaurants are also to be found in the hotel, ""Le Gourmet"" and the ""Mensurstube"". A garage and a car park are on offer to guests arriving by car. The lobby is very small and intimate, with Laura Ashley designed decor.

This luxury hotel is located in the villa quarter of Neuenheim at the entrance to the world-famous Philosopher's Way. The romantic artist William Turner sketched Heidelberg Castle here, which actually lies directly opposite the hotel. By taking a stroll beside the River Neckar and over the Alte Brücke (old bridge), guests can easily reach the old town within ten minutes. The nearest public transport stop is about 1 km from the hotel.

The restaurants are located on the ground floor and are lovely rustically styled rooms with a warm, welcoming ambience. Both restaurant, the "Le gourmet" and the "Mensurenstube" are particularly well-known in Heidelberg and Germany not only for its exceptional cuisine, but for having one of the most varied and exclusive wine and champagne lists. They won several prices and are awarded in several gourmet guides.
