Wird nicht mehr gebucht Hotel Central in Altona

Mussten schweres Gepäck in den 3.Stock und 4.Stock hochtragen und das letzte Zimmer im Flur und Check out alles alleine tragen, voll schrecklich! Beim duschen in der Wanne war das Bad bisschen überflutet, Duschwand undicht und nach reklamieren war es nicht besser

Das Zimmer ist (erst recht für den Preis) eine Unverschämtheit. Extrem klein und eng. Die Tür schließt nicht dicht, die Dusche ist an der falschen Seite der Wand. Dadurch wird das Bad geflutet. Der Weg ins Zimmer ist gruselig, dunkel und nicht nachvollziehbar.

Gutes Hotel für einen Kurzurlaub

Zimmer klein aber fein. War aber sauber, man hat aber nicht viel Platz um etwas abzulegen. Es steht eine Bar ausgeschrieben in der Beschreibung und auch in der Gästemappe, allerdings gibt es nur einen Aufenthaltsraum mit Getränken zur Selbstbedienung. Das fanden wir nicht so gut. Personal waren alle freundlich, es war nur ein bisschen komisch das man nebenan im Best Western eingecheckt hat. Im großen und ganzen trotzdem ein gutes Hotel mit super Anbindung zum ÖPNV.

Da wir mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln unterwegs waren, war das Hotel ideal. Der Bahnhof war sehr nah gelegen, sowie die S-Bahn. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gab es. Auch die Lokalitäten waren im Umkreis von höchsten 1km. Das Frühstück im Hotel war mehr als ausreichend. Wir werden wieder kommen.

Molto vicino alla Stazione di Altona. Camera spaziosa, abbiamo trascorso due notti. Materasso un po’ duro ma è una questione probabilmente di abitudine. Ceckin presso il Best Western che sta proprio accanto. Accesso anche dal Best Weatern. Ci ritornerei, ottima posizione per girare la città.
