The history of the house, which today offers 4 holiday apartments, dates back to the 15th century. At that time, it served as the house of the forester of the castle. The house is located in the center of the old town in the immediate vicinity of the Heiliggeistkirche, the town hall and market square and on the outer edge of the pedestrian area. It thus offers all the advantages of the city center with regard to tourist destinations, restaurants and other activities. Since the apartment is located in a quiet side street, it is wonderfully quiet.

The house and apartments were completely renovated from 2012 to 2014 and connected to district heating in March 2014. Today the house combines historic walls with 21st century amenitites. The apartments are furnished in a tasteful and modern style and fully equipped.

The apartment was exactly as described - extremely well-equipped and spotlessly prepared. The location is excellent - only a few paces from Heidelberg's main street. All shopping needs are catered for nearby (we thoroughly recommend the bakery Zeit Fur Brot!). A boat trip on the Neckar, a visit to the wonderful Heidelberg castle (visible from the apartment), a walk on Philosophers' Way and a lovely organ concert in the Church of the Holy Spirit were highlights of our stay. Thanks to Martina, the apartment owner, for her excellent communication. We thoroughly recommend a stay here.

The castle views are wonderful and the apartment location is equally phenomenal. The apartment is spacious, clean and quiet. Numerous shops and restaurants are surprisingly close and just a few steps away. The apartment had plenty of space for our family of 6, and in the July heat, the air conditioned attic level was a blessing. When we had questions, the owner responded very quickly and positively. We would absolutely stay here again!

We could not have asked for a better apartment for our vacation. The location is fantastic and only a block from the main street with all of the shops and restaurants. You have a view of the castle from the window and balcony. The apartment was clean and exactly as described. The property manager was fantastic and quickly responded when my teenage son locked all the keys in the apartment by mistake. Highly recommend.

Apartment is well equipped with an exceedingly thoughtful touch. We could use scissors to take off a tag; it’s there. Well equipped kitchen. Delightful toy box for almost four year old! Location was wonderful and view of castle outstanding. My legs appreciated the workout that the winding stairs provided and gave a reminder that I need to exercise more Thank you!!!!

We loved staying at this updated and extremely clean apartment. It is wonderfully located in the old town of Heidelberg near the Hauptstrasse and just a funicular ride up to the Castle. The beds were comfortable, and with two bedrooms and a bath located downstairs (along with the kitchen and living room) and a bedroom and bath plus a sitting room upstairs, we, two couples, had the space and privacy we needed. The deck is wonderful and offers exceptional views of the Castle, as do three other spaces in the apartment. The apartment is located on the third floor, so there are steps to climb. We are in our 70s and considered them our exercise for the day. I would definitely enjoy staying here again!
