The NH Collection Heidelberg stands at Bergheimer Straße 91 in the Bergheim district, just west of the Old Town, and is a four-and-a-half-star hotel. It has 168 rooms, from Superior and Premium rooms to Junior Suites and family rooms, some of them in a historical wing or with a terrace. Facilities include an on-site Italian restaurant, a bar, a gym, a sauna and a garden, plus a business centre and an electric car charging station. A buffet breakfast is available for an extra charge, and the hotel is a solid choice for guests who want a full-service, contemporary hotel rather than a small guesthouse.
Location and getting around
Bergheim is an easy-going neighbourhood of restaurants, shops and university buildings between the main station and the historic centre. The BODY WORLDS museum is about a five-minute walk away, the Seegarten tram stop is roughly eight minutes on foot and the central station about eleven, so trains, trams and buses are all within reach.
The castle is a short drive or tram-and-walk away, and the Old Town pedestrian streets can be reached on foot in a pleasant stroll. Frankfurt Airport is around an hour away by car, which makes this a convenient stop for arrivals and departures.
The rooms and facilities
The room mix is broad, so it pays to think about what you need. Superior rooms suit couples on a short stay, Premium rooms and Junior Suites give extra space, and the family rooms and extra-bed options work for travellers with children. Rooms include coffee and tea makers, flat-screen televisions, a choice of pillows and free toiletries, and infant beds are provided at no charge.
The sauna and gym are welcome after a day of climbing castle steps, and the garden is a calm spot with a drink in summer. Check when you book whether breakfast is included in your rate, as the buffet is often sold as an extra, and note that self-parking carries a nightly charge.
Who it suits and what to know: this is a good fit for couples, business travellers and anyone who values a modern, reliable hotel with a restaurant on the ground floor over the atmosphere of a timbered Old Town inn. Pets are accepted for a fee, and free cancellation is offered on selected rates, so compare room types and flexible rates before choosing.
Rates are in the upper-middle range and rise around the Christmas market and major events. If you want to step straight out onto the Hauptstraße, a smaller Old Town hotel will feel more central, but for comfort, facilities and an easy tram ride into the centre, the NH Collection is a strong all-rounder.
