“The Meininger in Heidelberg delivers exactly what budget-conscious travelers need; I particularly note the modern, well-equipped guest kitchen and laundry services, features often absent in similarly priced hotels. Its proximity to the train station simplifies exploring Heidelberg, plus the luggage storage is a lifesaver. In my view, it's a practical choice for anyone valuing convenience and affordability.”
