Hotel Regina

I can't recommend this lovely hotel enough if you're looking for superbly clean, comfortable and welcoming home away from home. What a gracious, helpful and kind host. They allowed my friends who live nearby to come to the hotel and speak to the owners before I arrived to make sure everything was well, leave snacks, water and some wine in my room so I could enjoy these when I checked in, which was late in the evening. The owners communicated with me and left very clear instructions. I enjoyed breakfasts in their very lovely and authentic breakfast room. The lady who runs the breakfast room is so nice and everything was presented perfectly, from the buffet to the table setting. I enjoyed sitting in the garden with my coffee, and a glass of wine later in the day. I can see how lovely it would be in spring and summer. I look fowad to staying there again. It's just round the corner from the centre where you can catch trams, walk the markets and shops. Superb hotel. Thank you for making my first stay in Heidelberg truly memorable 💖

Enjoyed a stay at the Hotel Regina. Felt welcomed by Heinz, who was attentive and kind. The rooms were clean, functional and quiet. The bed was comfortable. The hotel has very limited on-site parking, but there are also two garages quite close. Strolling distance from all kinds of restaurants and many shops. The Bismarckplatz tram stop is a block away, but it is also about a 1.5 km walk down the very, very crowded pedestrian road Hauptstrasse to Schloss Heidelberg. Overall a perfect place to stay. Thanks for having us - and ask Heinz to show you his picture with Paul McCartney!!

We arrived early and were just planning to ask if we could leave our bags early as we had to drop off our rental care before check in but to our surprise we were told a room was ready and we could check in! The start of a very nice stay. Bonus: we got to meet their dog who is adorable! The room and bathroom were both a good size. There was an armoire to hang clothes as well as a coat rack and small bench near the door. The room had a desk if needed as well. My favorite was the towel warmer in the bathroom! It was also a really good size so we were able to hand wash some of our laundry and leave it to dry which was great. Being able to open the windows for some fresh air was also great as the weather was really great for December. The breakfast had a good selection and the woman who works in the breakfast room was very friendly. There are only a few tables so that could be an issue if too many people head down at the same time, we didn’t run into that issue during our stay though. Now to probably the best part: the location!! Within walking distance to Bismarckplatz for bus & tram use and right at the end of Hauptstraße. We were in town for Christmas Markets and some sightseeing and it was such a great location. It was so nice being able to walk back and forth with ease between activities or even just to run back if we forgot something. We were incredibly happy with our stay and would 100% choose Hotel Regina again when visiting Heidelberg. With that being said if you are someone looking for a trendy hotel with a huge flatscreen this isn’t the stay for you, but I find that a great staff and location are much more valuable more often than not. We did not need parking but if you do have a car the street parking looked a bit tight in the area.

I stayed here three times over the past week. I chose the hotel because of its proximity to a local hospital. It was clean and quiet. The common areas were decorated nicely. The guest rooms were somewhat awkward and shabby. (I stayed in three different rooms.). All three beds were comfortable and all three rooms were quiet. Staff were polite. Breakfast was good, fairly basic selection of foods. Good coffee and great bread. The lady in the breakfast room during the week was wonderful. She was friendly and welcoming. The price for this hotel was significantly less than for the other hotels in walking distance of the hospital, so I would stay there again. If I planned to spend a lot of time in the room I would look for another place.

Just a one night stay in Heidelberg and this hotel offered the best rates if we wanted to be within walking distance of the Altstadt. It’s very handily located, over the square at the end of the Hauptstraße. |The facilities were ok, perhaps a tiny bit dated, but shower/bathroom was fine.|Parking is an issue as it only has 5 spaces and parking on the streets around the hotel isn’t easy. |Breakfast was good, but there are only 5 tables so sharing is occasionally required.|If proximity to the Altstadt is what you’re after, this is a good place to stay.

Having just flown in from America, my parents and I were struggling to find accommodations for 3 people in the old city on short notice. Hotel Regina was the Godsend which took us in. The delightful front desk receptionist set us up with an extremely affordable double room (more of a suite) as well as a single room—both of which were stunningly clean and quiet. The hotel itself possesses a perfect blend of modern and traditional decor/features. Nostalgic neo-luddite that I am, I especially appreciated the hotel’s maintenance of physical keys and locks, rather than digitized key cards. They also have their own parking lot for €10 euro per night. (Our jet-lagged brains missed the lot on the first pass, so the receptionist exited the building to guide us there; as you can well see, they provide superb customer service.) A truly edifying German breakfast (for only another €10 each!) in a cozy breakfast nook ended our stay. I see some picky reviews here. It is true that the shower does suffer from an inverse relationship between pressure and temperature. However, as my plumbing at home has similar issues, such a small thing did not bother me; perfection is impossible this side of the grave. If such things perturb you, there are always predictable and unimaginative corporate chains. (I will note what others have: the mattresses might not work for someone with back problems. This is a legitimate criticism, but it didn’t phase me in the least. I slept like the dead for nine hours in perfect darkness, silence, and comfort.) I unambiguously recommend Hotel Regina to all travelers.

Have stopped in Hotel Regina as it was booked by the organizers of the workshop which I attended. Very cozy with cute interior, and nice breakfast (cheese, salmon, sausage, boiled eggs, jam, bread, coffee), family run hotel and the staff is very friendly. Located just close to the bus and tram stop in the city center.

We chose the hotel Regina for an overnight stay, while we visited our daughter. Not fancy like some other hotels, but it looked like it had been painted not too long ago and our room was lovely and clean. The bed and pillows very comfortable. The bathroom large and clean. Breakfast was the usual cold European buffet and there was a good selection of food. The hotel is situated literally 2 minutes from Bismarkplatz, perfect for buses and close to the Altstraße. It's at the opposite end to the castle, but it only takes 10 minutes to walk down. As we we literally used it as a base to throw our cases and to sleep, we didn't have much to do with the staff, but they were friendly enough and there was no problem storing our case after we had checked out. Would definitely recommend to people on a budget.
