Van der Valk Hotel Hildesheim

A modern hotel directly on Hildesheim's historic Marktplatz, close to the town's UNESCO-listed churches and half-timbered market square.

Van der Valk Hotel Hildesheim sits directly on Hildesheim's historic Marktplatz, placing guests steps from the reconstructed guild houses on the square and a short walk from the UNESCO-listed St. Mary's Cathedral and St. Michael's Church. The building is a modern construction designed to sit comfortably within the reconstructed old-town streetscape, part of the Dutch Van der Valk hotel group's network of mid-range properties across Germany and the Netherlands. Rooms span Standard, Comfort, and Junior Suite categories, finished in a contemporary style that contrasts with the half-timbered facades visible from the windows of market-facing rooms. The hotel's restaurant serves a broad German and international menu, popular with both hotel guests and local diners for its Marktplatz-facing terrace seating in summer. A bar offers evening drinks with views over the square, and a fitness area supports longer business or leisure stays. Meeting rooms cater to corporate groups visiting Hildesheim's business district, while the paid parking garage is a practical option given the old town's restricted street parking. Service reflects the Van der Valk group's consistent, mid-range hotel standard, with efficient check-in and multilingual staff accustomed to both international tour groups visiting the cathedral sights and business travelers. The Marktplatz location makes the hotel an efficient base for exploring Hildesheim's reconstructed old town, the Roemer- und Pelizaeus-Museum, and the cathedral quarter, all within a ten-minute walk.
