Always stable and good

I stay here twice a year and really enjoy the morning buffet and the easy parking when doing events at the Convention Center in town! The location is central and the ease of getting in and out is always a must for me.

Central Hotel

The hotel is very central to the town. The parking is about 2 mins walk away, which does not help if you have heavy bags. There is a small gym and sauna which was ok. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was great.

Central hotel

Perfect location downtown. Close to restaurants, shopping and bars. Quite rooms with sound proof windows facing the inside court. Great breakfast buffet with lots of choices. Clean room. Access to gym and sauna. Hotel is fairly worn and in a good need of restauration in some places though.
