Only stayed for one night. Leaving the luggage before & after Check-out was standard service. Public transport per bus or train is just walking distance. Supermarkets & a lot of resraurants nearby. Unfortunately, our room had no AC and it was unusually hot for end of May.

We were so lucky to have met the most lovely concierge who made our check in process the best. He was so accommodating and helpful. The room was very clean and cute. Great location to walk to the train station so you can get anywhere. Also a cute downtown nearby with lots of great food options for a quick snack. Would stay here again, definitely recommend!

Hotellet var som sådan rent, men der lugtede simpelthen så gammel på gangene hvis alle vinduer ikke var åbne. Der ud over blev man vækket hver gang nogle brugte enten vasken eller skyllede da det gav en høj larm.

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
