Lock in a great price for Hotel Central - rated 8.5 by recent guests.

to get started.

The bed was really comfy, everything was spotlessly clean, the room and bathroom were modern and the location was amazing-right in the centre of the city within easy walking distance of everywhere. The staff were very accommodating and the breakfast delicious. I recommend this hotel wholeheartedly.

Joanne, United Kingdom

Great location right on the square close to many attractions.

Mireille, South Africa

Ignore the star rating of this hotel on trip advisor... this hotel is amazing! We had a room with a view out onto the market square and it was just incredible, you could stand there all day just watching it all pass by! The hotel room was just what we needed, clean and comfortable, other than the view there’s no distractions like a Tv or coffee machine etc so It gets you out there to go and enjoy the local coffee food and entertainment! The food in the restraurant is excellent, recommend the fillet steak! Also visit the Wall Of Beer Bar for a drink not far from the main square!

Phillippa, United Kingdom

The location is its best feature. We had a room with great views. It was very clean.

Daisy, Spain

The location is superb, right in the Markt. Simple but nice continental breakfast.

Cristiana, Portugal

The location of the apartment is perfect, nice staff

Ekaterina, Netherlands

The location was great. The room is very spacious.

Diana, Australia

- nice staff - perfect location - good view to the Markt and the Belfort tower - cleanliness

Adam, Hungary

First and foremost the location is simply excellent, and rather surprising, even with a front room overlooking the square - it was very quiet. Although the room was fairly basic, (which we like), it was finished to a very high standard. No TV, which again didn't bother us in the slightest. Both the evening meal and the breakfast were very good.

Deniseflute, United Kingdom

Super location. Ideal for getting to all we wanted to do for a short visit. Plus an excellent view from room.

“Great being right on the square if you don't mind the noise!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Standard Double Room with Market View
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Delivery and garbage trucks waking us up at 6am every morning right under our windows. Noise from the square almost through the night sometimes. Lesson learned - a great bedroom view also means noise. Thin walls and ceiling. Person above us sounded like an elephant. No ventilation if windows were closed. No aircon. Room needs a simple ceiling fan - not difficult to install in the existing bulkhead! No elevator so don't bring elderly people here who battle with stairs.

눉There was a heat wave that day and my opinion is they could have offered to put a fan in our room. It was way too hot to be in the hotel room, which was like an oven, no air conditioning or fan to aid during these kind of situations.
눇The location is its best feature. We had a room with great views. It was very clean.

눉The room had no windows, no TV and worst no Air Condition. I slept on the floor with the bathroom door open so we could have an window open to the room. There was no phone to the reception so we could solve the problem in the middle of the night. Stayed in August, temperature during the day was up to 37ºC
눇The location is superb, right in the Markt. Simple but nice continental breakfast.

눉There was no aircondition and window in the room. The only window was in a bathroom. The view from the window was to hotel tiny court yard where other people had dinner. So all conversations of the hotel guests were hearable. I am happy that we stayed only one night there as due to heat, noise and lack of air we slept only couple of hours.

“Minimalist's would love it - I didn't.”
- • Leisure trip

눉No TV in room, No tea or coffee, fridge or chairs in the room (two Ottomans/Poufs), No air-con - I didn't need it but it would be a problem in summer, Thin walls (noisy), No public area for sitting (just the restaurant downstairs), Hard to find - It's above the Central Restaurant. It feels like someone said, "Hey we've got a restaurant in a great location, let's offer some rooms too", and that's where the thinking stopped. Let's face it, the location is so strong that most people will overlook all the above.
눇WiFi was strong in the room.

눉- No airconditioning - The staff at the bar (who also happens the person who checks in guests) was not really accomodating. When asked if they have a fan I can borrow (bec the room was bloody hot), he said they only have one and he is using it. - We were told that check in time was 2pm, we had lunch and left the luggages there. After we returned, we checked in, in our horror that the room is still dirty from previous guests.
