Heidelberg hotels and places to stay

     “One thinks Heidelberg by day – with its surroundings – is the last possibility of the beautiful; but when he sees Heidelberg by night, a fallen Milky Way, with that glittering railway constellation pinned to the border, he requires time to consider upon the verdict.”

     The famous American writer Mark Twain heaped this praise on one of the most beautiful towns of Germany in his travel book “A Tramp Abroad”. Charming Heidelberg, situated in a valley of the Neckar River, is one of the few German towns that never suffered during World War II bombing. You should definitely include remarkable Heidelberg into your European journey.
