Das Eigentum — Meyer
The Hotel Meyer is a straightforward, family-run 3-star in Hildesheim’s quiet northern fringe. You get clean, functional rooms, a solid breakfast buffet, and free parking — none of the frills. It suits travellers who treat the hotel as a base for exploring the Altstadt or trade-fair visitors needing reliable, no-nonsense lodging. Standing in the small lobby, you smell coffee from the breakfast room and hear the owner arranging taxi pickups; it feels efficient and personal, not polished.
Chroniken von Hildesheim
Hildesheim traces its roots to a 9th-century bishopric, with the Romanesque St. Mary’s Cathedral and St. Michael’s Church — both UNESCO sites — symbolising its medieval power. The city centre was levelled by Allied bombing in March 1945, then rebuilt in the 1950s with a mix of plain postwar blocks and painstaking reconstructions of half-timbered houses, notably the Umgestülpter Zuckerhut. Today, Hildesheim is a mid-size university town (around 100,000 people) with a lively student scene, a renowned university of applied sciences, and a strong calendar of festivals like the M’era Luna music festival. The restored Knochenhauer-Amtshaus on the market square is a photogenic anchor for visitors.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Meyer, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the top floor (3rd floor) for a quieter experience, as the lift serves all floors and it's likely to be less crowded. This will also give you more control over the temperature, as you'll be farther away from the potential noise and distractions from the Peiner Landstraße.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms on the ground floor might be noisier due to the main entrance and potential foot traffic. Avoid rooms near the lift, as it's a single lift serving all floors, and you may experience more traffic and noise from guests using the lift.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Peiner Landstraße 185 doesn't offer any notable views, as it's a relatively quiet residential area. However, you might get a glimpse of the surrounding streets.
Quietest floors
2nd floor
🔊 Noise notes
Be aware that the hotel is located on a relatively busy street, Peiner Landstraße, which might experience some traffic noise, especially during rush hour. Additionally, the single lift serving all floors could contribute to some noise disturbance.
Insider tips
Take advantage of the free Wi-Fi, but be prepared for slower speeds (around 10 Mbps download). Consider using the nearby Parkhaus Bahnhofsplatz public garage (€10 per night) if you prefer a more reliable parking option, as the hotel's on-site car park is small and first-come-first-served.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top-Attraktionen in Hildesheim
💡 Combine with a walk through the adjacent Kehrwiederturm (a medieval tower you can climb for €1). The memorial has no official hours—always open.
💡 Check the wooden ceiling 'Jesus Tree' inside the free area—often missed but spectacular. Visit on a Sunday morning for organ music during mass.
💡 Go around midday to see the sun hit the bronze doors and illuminate the rosebush through the eastern window.
💡 The rose bush outside grows on the apse wall. Don't miss the cloister with early Romanesque capitals and the crypt with a modern 'Blue Madonna' painting by Gerhard Richter.
💡 Go during a weekday lunch hour (12-1pm) when fewer tourists are around. Sit in the choir stalls for the best view of the ceiling.
💡 The treasury museum costs €4 but the cathedral itself is free. The 1000-year-old rosebush growing along the apse is visible from outside—no need to pay.
💡 Visit on a weekday morning to avoid crowds. The rose bush is best viewed from the cloister courtyard, not the street.
💡 The rose bush blooms in May–June, but the church itself is always impressive. The treasury costs €4; skip it unless you’re keen on medieval art. Mass times can limit access.
