Lovely property, easy check in, good amenities? and relatively close to the city centre. We got a very cheap price as well, although we did travel in the off season.

The apartment was great, with everything you need and within walking distance to the city center in a very nice and quiet area. We’ll definitely come back with our family if we ever come back to Heidelberg!

Nice spacious room. Excellent kitchenette with hot plate and microwave and fridge. Staff super friendly and were able to check us in early when we expected to just leave bags. A washing machine would have been top addition to kitchenette, or maybe a couple of machines in the basement, but I really can't complain and would most definitely stay again. Thank you!

We are a family of four (2 adults and 2 boys ages 15 and 13) and we stayed 2 nights in the BoardingWorld Heidelberg in July 2026. Our stay was mixed good/bad. Let's start with the good: Heidelberg is charming and BoardingWorld is well located, with main attractions within walking distance. The room felt fairly spacious and comfortable and the building had charm. We had a shared balcony overlooking a pleasant backyard. The wifi worked well, the room had a kitchenette, and parking on the street was ok (although we had to park about a mile away for extended periods), Now for the bad: The room had no AC and it was hot out, so we had to open the windows and doors for circulation and it was still uncomfortably warm. The kitchenette is inside a cabinet next to the bathroom door and you can't open the bathroom and kitchenette doors at the same time, which is annoying and makes no sense. The listing said the kitchenette had a stovetop which it did not. Last - but not least - the communication was TERRIBLE! I reached out to the property repeatedly for check in instructions and received none. When we arrived "after hours" around 18:00, there was no one on site to help and no instructions, so I had to call the "emergency after hours line" and navigate an unhelpful automated line before talking to a person who could actually help me. We never received any messages about our stay including check-out. The lack of communication was truly awful and really overshadowed the positive aspects.

We had a third person who slept on the pull out chair. It needed a topper to make it more comfortable. Our main bed was very good. Also we could use better pillows. It got cold at night and there were no extra blankets. Otherwise we were very pleased.

Highly recommended, has all you need.
The Boarding House Heidelberg is the perfect location for you to stay and explore the delightful city. The apartment was spacious with great decor, spotlessly clean, crisp white linen and a large comfortable bed. Only criticism would be the terrible pillows - suggest much better ones needed.
The apartment also gives you a spacious bathroom with powerful shower and hairdryer. The small kitchen area is fully equipped with all you need to rustle up food, a fridge, kettle and coffee maker with very good supplied coffee bags, whitener and sugars.
The room was very quiet with the windows closed but maybe noisier if they were needed to be open.
The lovely lady on reception was very friendly and helpful. We were able to park our motorcycle in the underground parking.
This place is a bargain price but offers so much, we would definitely recommend and stay here again.

So so
We enjoyed the property, and it was in the middle of everything in Heidelberg, but a couple of grapes. We have our that we paid for parking, and it ended up not having a spot so we had to jam ourselves into the parking lot, and at one point, we lost our key card and got back to the hotel, and no one was behind the desk, and it was not that late at night.
The front door of this hotel never fully locked. Which meant anybody could walk in and out whenever they wanted to. Typically they had a key card access that would let you in and out if you were staying at the hotel, but that was broken. Which meant at any time of day any person who is not staying at the hotel was able to come in Had full access to the hotel. The floor that we were staying on had painting materials and looked like it was being redone. So when we woke up the next morning, there were gentlemen outside painting, and there was paint droplets everywhere, which is not ideal when you’re staying in a hotel and having to worry about not getting stuff on your clothes.

There was likely a gas leak in the room we stayed in. When we walked in, there was a strong odor I can't describe. We opened the windows and aired the room out before closing them and leaving to continue seeing the city. By the time we get back, the same strong odor was in the room again. I turned off the heaters and we aired the room out a second time. After turning off the heater there wasn't any smellup until we checked out the next morning. Aside from the smell/possible gas leak, the room was alright. The front door did not lock and there was an additional unlabeled switch at the front that cut all the power to the room. At some point before going to sleep one of us must have pressed that switch as when we woke up, none of the electrical worked and our phones had not charged until we realized what the switch did. Overall, it was a disappointing experience that, for me at least, subtracted from our stay in Heidelberg. I do think maybe it could have just been issues with our room in particular and some other rooms in some of the other buildings may be better. We stayed in one of the middle tier rooms for two adults and paid for vehicle parking separate.
