Premier Inn Heidelberg City Centre

Premier Inn Heidelberg City Centre

10/10 Excellent
"Clean, updated quiet rooms, good location. Staff were pleasant and helpful and spoke English. Convenient walk or quick ride on trams/buses to shopping, sites, train station. Can be a little noisy from street during peak traffic hours if window is open. Didn’t get a chance to try breakfast or happy hour, but it looked good."

What is a historic hotel like in Heidelberg?
Guests who choose historic hotels have the opportunity to stay in a building that has been recognised with an official historic designation. Historic hotels throughout the world can take the form of castles, stately homes, palaces or even pubs, lodges, old police stations or skyscrapers — as long as it's of special interest. These types of hotels in Heidelberg typically preserve original characteristics like traditional architecture and period features in their communal spaces or guestrooms.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. "Historic hotel" is more commonly used in the U.S., while you'll often hear "heritage hotel" in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to put more importance on the architecture and actual building. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the place's cultural value and how it inspired the community.
Do historic hotels in Heidelberg have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as WiFi, heating and air conditioning, and updated bathroom facilities. In Heidelberg, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown or uncomfortable for guests.
