I would have never imagined travelling to Poitiers if it hadn't been a stop over from Paris to Libourne. Well, what the check, another place, another eye opener I guess. The hotel was not really far from the Railway Station but do be aware that it's located at the top of a hill.. Yes, the main town of Poitiers is... More

Imagine a hotel stay where breakfast is delivered to your room and you can enjoy it on the balcony overlooking the town square. That was our experience at Hotel Central. Ask for a room with a balcony. Breakfast is about 7 Euros/person, but it is delivered to your room. The only disadvantage to having a balcony is that if you... More

I stayed here with my husband and young baby as a stop off in our trip south. I didn't know much about poitiers before so took a bit of a punt on the location and the hotel....we were very pleasantly surprised. This hotel is as it's name suggests, very central and within walking distance of everything in the old town.... More

Hotel Central is, as the name suggests, right in the middle of Poitiers and overlooks the large central square and the splendid Town Hall. It is a small 2 star hotel but very clean and welcoming. Our en-suite room on the top floor overlooking the square and with a small balcony with table & 2 chairs cost €73.70 for the... More

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights in July 2012. The hotel is beautifully located in the town square. The staff were friendly and although the counter is not manned the access after hours is very simple. The room was very clean, very comfortable and nice and quiet. The bathroom was clean and the shower was very good. We... More

We stayed two nights at this hotel which is in the town center. We had breakfast served by the hotel on the balcony that overlooks the town square. It turned out that our stay coincided with a music festival and other civic activities performed in the square. Despite some noise late at night we had a wonderful time from our... More

We loved the central location and being a short stroll to some lovely chocolate shops and restaurants. The hotel is situated on the main square overlooking the hotel d ville, quaint shops and cafes. The rooms whilst not huge, were nicely renovated, spotlessly clean, warm and modern - much nicer than we expected for a 2 star rated property! The... More

I found this place, by car, far more easily than I had expected. The signs to the pay car park are well placed and there's lots of them. It cost euro 6 for the night and I was happy to pay. The hotel was a 5 min walk around the corner - out of the car park and to the... More

A good hotel with a great location and a good view. The toilet was too small, the shower had temperature fluctuations and the room was quite noisy in the morning, since the hotel is animal friendly. The breakfast in bed for 7eur is also a bit overpriced: no real fruit, nor cheese. Overall, it is a good 2 star hotel... More

I am certain that the two star rating is because the hotel is not manned at all times and because there is no breakfast room. I can't think of any other reason because we really enjoyed staying there. The reception is not 24 hour but your electronic room key gives you access through the main entrance door when it is...
