Our employees are our greatest asset, as only together can we offer the friendly service that has given the Europäischen Hof Heidelberg its international renown. Whether our guests are satisfied depends on whether our employees are satisfied - if you want happy guests, you need happy employees. Our employees are part of the family and are our pride and joy. Our company ethos is shaped by trust, and values like fairness, mindfulness, and a sense of responsibility. This means that the management strives to create the best conditions for employees to grow and develop. Our credo “we love what we do” can only be observed in these conditions. That’s also a big part of our company ethos.

By the way: we have been awarded the title of FAIR JOB HOTEL. FAIR JOB HOTELS is a union of hotels that promise to uphold the shared, binding values and standards for fair and development-oriented treatment of employees in the workplace.
