We booked a non-smoking room, but was given a smoking room. No apologies was given, only a curt reply that the hotel was full. The room was really reeking of cigarette smoke, even the pillows and the bedsheets. The room was small, the bed extremely hard and uncomfortable, we had a very bad night. Extremely poor value for money, at... More

Very good little, clean hotel with all things needed and friendly stuff. Not very far from center and near the river.People at lobby helped me a lot, cleaning was made every day. the only problem is that breakfast absolutely same all the time - jogurt, meat, eggs, milk, sweet jam. also internet connection is very expensive (cloud provider) but it's...

I was sceptical in booking this hotel for a business trip...nevertheless, because of my priority of "proximity to the central railway station", I decided to take the risk...I was not dissappointed... I stayed here for two weeks and found the staff to be friendly...the reception desk is open 24 hrs and this was good since on some weekends I left/returned... More

We really had trouble finding good budget accommodations on the internet for Heidelburg. We decided on the Central because it was a reasonably priced 3 star hotel near the station. Once we got there, we could almost see the hotel from the station. As we walked over there, there were a number of drunks laying around, so we were a... More

I stayed overnight and was pleased with the hotel after a long flight into Frankfurt and driving in on the Autobahn. My room was clean,efficient and quiet. Breakfast was very good, especially the good German bread. Be warned that parking is an extra charge and very limited so dont show up late.

not much to say: old, very poor breakfast with no fruits at all and my back is still aching after spending just one night on a completely ruined bed. However, I need to mention the staff is very friendly, seems to be a kind of tradition in bed German hotels, considering my previous experience :-)

My wife and I visited Heidelberg for the Christkindlmarkt (December 2005) and stayed at the Hotel Central only to find its 3 star rating rather misleading. The rooms are dank, the bathrooms cramped, the hotel generally run down. There is no coffee or tea service in the room, and they have a tiny little television in the room. This is... More

This was an average 3-star hotel near the train station. Rooms were average Euro size with a small bathroom. No fans meant hot weather in the summer, noisy street outside of hotel (college apartments). Staff was friendly. 15-20 minute walk to Hauptstrasse (downtown). Did have a nice breakfast, elevator, and parking. Did have S-Bahn tracks outside of hotel to get... More
