Of the ten hotels we stayed at during our recent European trip, the Central was disappointing. The hotel is barely three star, old and its rooms are in need of renovation and far below all the other three star hotels we stayed in. Our room was basic with a tiny bathroom where movement was restricted. Breakfast was adequate but again... More

Hotel is in a great location. The rooms are large and clean. The bathroom is also large. Breakfast was fantastic, great choice of food. Staff is very friendly. Parking is located nearby. If you want to find a good and affordable hotel in the city center, this hotel is for you

My girlfriend and I wanted a cheap and centrally located hotel in beautiful Bamberg, and that's what we got. On arrival we were reminded by the friendly and helpful receptionist that the room we booked came with a shared toilet. Neither of us minded - we knew this was why it was so cheap. We got to our room to... More

Hotel Central is a no-frills lodging in a fairly good location, offering friendly service at competitive rates. However, its rooms, decorations notwithstanding, feel rather cold and soulless, and are not so clean. The hotel occupies a historic building that is close to geographical center of the city as well as to ZOB (central bus station) and a taxi stand. It... More

We were looking for last minute budget accomodation in Bamberg and found this Hotel on Booking.com. It is consistently the second cheapest hotel in bamberg if you're looking to stay central and not in a neighboring town. We found that anything cheaper would only have saved us between 15 and 20 Australian dollars and was at least 10 kms away.... More

This hotel is nicely located in Bamberg. My husband and I were able to walk to all of the area sites we wanted to visit and were close to great shopping. Internet was free and reliable. Breakfast was plenty and typical of the area. The staff were helpful. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings and watching the... More

The hotel works well for budget travelers relying on public transport - a 20 minute walk from the train station, local sights & restaurants are within walking distance, bus station and taxi stand are outside the front door. We had a room with an attached bathroom (shower & toilet) - plenty of hot water early in the a.m. and after... More

I was very pleased with Hotel Central in Bamberg. The staff were very kind and helpful. The room was spacious and the wifi connection worked well. The breakfast buffet in the morning was a typical German breakfast which consisted mainly of bread rolls, meat, cheese, yogurt, fruit, cereal, coffee, and tea. The hotel is centrally located, within walking distance from... More

The reception area looks more like an youth hostel than an hotel - but the lady behind the reception was charming. The corridors as well reminded us of youth hostels, but the room was clean and the beds comfy. The breakfast was good - but the breakfast room was a bit too small - we had to wait in line... More

We booked our trip last minute and this was an inexpensive, central option. The room we booked was one that had a shower in the room but the toilet was shared with other rooms. The quality of the room was good with a decent shower and a balcony. They had free wireless internet which is always a plus. The downside... More
