Inexpensive accommodations in or around Heidelberg

In a 10-12 day trip Eastward, our first stop for a group of 5 (3 adults and 2 children), will be Heidelberg and we don%26#39;t want to spend too much money too soon. We will be driving to Heidelberg from Paris and I wondered if anyone had any ideas for cheap, decent, clean accommodations for our group for 1 or 2 nights. It doesn%26#39;t have to be just next to the castle but preferrably a place where we can easily park the car.

What about the Dilsberg youth hostel approx. 15 km from Heidelberg. Cheap, clean - and certainly for the children something special.

Dilsberg is a fortified village around a castle. The youth hostel is in the city gate.

*city* is a bit exaggerated for a place with 230 inhabitants.





Parking: see map





Parking in the Altstadt (old town) of Heidelberg is even more of a problem.

You can buy a VRN Ticket 24 PLUS for EUR 8,00. A mini group ticket (2-5 persons) valid 24 hours covering buses/trains from Dilsberg/Neckargemünd to Heidelberg.





Also nice is to walk from Dilsberg to Neckarsteinach%26#39;s 4 castles (45 min).
