Lock in a great price for Central Railway Hotel – rated 8.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

Basic accomodation that met our needs for an overnight stay . It was clean and in a quiet area. A few minutes walk to Central station . Good value for money.

Bernadette, Australia

the location was close to the railway & subway station. also there were plenty of eateries nearby. as well as a park with a swimming pool five minutes away. the staff dealt with all questions and concerns in a thorough caring manner.

A, United States of America

The location is very good. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.

Em, Japan

The room had everything from a microwave, kettle, fridge, cutlery, tea coffee, iron, iron table. So it's a great value for money and the location is great with Central station chamblers street exit just 8 minutes walk. Buses are closer too.

Sriram, France

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Unit was a little small for 4 people, but we were only there for a short time and it was our choice to have 4 in the room to save money. The room would be very comfortable for 2 people. Coffee machine in courtyard and comfortable seating area to sit outside.

Laura, United States of America

Very helpful staff. Good connection to public transport. Good value for money.

David, United States of America

The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. There were good choices for food nearby. There was the train station just a few streets away.

A, United States of America

We stayed at this hotel in the last week of December. The room rate was quite high because it was close to New Year's eve. Overall, the facilities at this hotel were equivalent to a 3-star hotel. We had booked a family room with a kitchenette. The kitchenette included a microwave, fridge and some basic utensils. The room was clean and came with a balcony that faced the street. The hotel is located on a quiet street in a residential neighborhood. There is a nice coffee shop 5 minutes away and a nice pub 10 minutes away. The metro bus stop is right opposite the hotel. The local train station is also 10 minutes away. Even though the hotel is not in the happening part of town, we were quite happy with the location.

Stairs were a little hard with bags but we knew that before arrival and staff offered to help with if we needed it. Would have loved a window in both rooms but didn't spend much time in there during the day so that was fine too.
Walking distance to Central, lovely friendly and helpful staff, free coffee! It was a quaint place in a convenient area.

No lifts... we had a baby and for the baby stroller was an inconvenience because we´ve been on the second floor.
Good location, the central station is 10 minutes walking. The size of the room was enough big to be comfortable. Mini-kitchen, microwave included, inside the room, that helps if you have a baby.
