Hotel Die Hirschgasse Heidelberg
Across the River Neckar valley with stunning views of Heidelberg Castle
Mentioned by Mark Twain in his book, ‘A Tramp Abroad’ Hotel Die Hirschgasse Heidelberg is romantic 15th-century inn hidden away in a little side valley in the pretty town of Heidelberg. The oldest hotel in this ancient university city, it was the site for student duelling contests and has a museum in one of its two dining rooms. Expect lovely castle views and a comfortable walk into Old Town.
Outside Hotel Die Hirschgasse Heidelberg, the white walls and pretty shuttered windows lead to snug interiors with wood beams and exposed stone walls, rich coloured fabrics, floral prints, artworks and a mix of antique and contemporary furniture. The ambience is cosy and very friendly.
Take an aperitif on the rose terrace before dining in the museum restaurant, Mensurstube. For fine dining, eat in Le Gourmet for French Mediterranean cuisine. Try a wine tasting session in Hotel Die Hirschgasse’s cellars to determine which wine you would prefer to drink with your dinner.

Dining
Le Gourmet - Award winning French gourmet restaurant - a festive but not at all stiff ambiance with the emphasis on pure joy. Some say it is the best in town - we do not oppose to that.
Mensurstube - a true piece of living history and offering not just regional food, but also old Hirschgasse recipes. Here you find a lot of authentic traces of romantic Heidelberg, which have been "renovated away" in so many other properties.
Le Gourmet

Very elegant and warm ambience serving sophisticated French cuisine, with Laura Ashley fabric wall and ceiling coverings, and Parquet floor Very attentive and friendly service. We do not require our guests to dress up, a smart leisure outfit will do. Enjoy your restaurant visit smoke free.

Mensurstube
This very old wooden paneled room will give you a hint of bygone days of duelling and tradition. Even Count Bismarck duelled here many times.
Dine at over 250 year old tables, at which Mark Twain wrote his book "A tramp abroad" when visiting Heidelberg. We serve you the best regional organic products from farmers we know. The rainbow trouts come from our nearby monastery lakes.
