Friendly staff. Close to the train station to get to Rabat and very walkable distance from everything in the city. I would definitely recommend this hotel!

It was great! I had a room with its own private bathroom and a view all the way out to the water. There was even a TV in the room.

Good location. Guy behind the desk was friendly. Let me change my booking on arrival without any hassles.

I really liked this place. It is an old colonial hotel and still has some of this charme. It was clean enough, not sparkling, but fine. Nice hot water, good breakfast and really lovely stuff. It is located just outside the medina overlooking a small square, which is nice but a little noisy at night.

They´re arn´t too many places to choose from in Casablanca so I can see why this budget hotel is popular. It´s ok for what you pay for, although the staff wasn´t always helpful, the bathroom was just plain dirty, and I wouldn´t expect the wifi to work.

The neighborhood was overwhelming/ sketchy -seeming. However, it's pretty manageable once you get used to it and I felt safe while in the hotel. Staff were friendly and gave us free tea, but seemed a bit scattered and weren't much help with information about what to do in Casa. Hotel is BEAUTIFUL and has great free breakfasts. Showers have no shower curtain so bathroom gets soaked. Not Euro-American hotel standards of clean but okay. No wifi, went to cheap internet cafe across street.

The staff sometimes exaggerated with making jokes so we got kind of annoyed by time. However, the house and especially the area are awesome.

Nice hotel, close to the II Hassan Mosque and easy to find. There are a lot of very cheap and snack-selling places nearby with fresh grilled meat etc. (One is just in the street behind the hotel, a sandwich for 10 DH). It is also very close to Casa Port.

This is a typical Moroccan hotel, but that's exactly why I liked it. Apart from the fact that staff were incredibly helpful and kind (the chef and receptionist especially are an awesome people to chat to at night), it was basic, clean, centrally located and cheap. The place was very close to Casa Port train station, inside the medina close to cafes and at walking distance to the city centre. I liked how basic it was, and truly felt like in Casablanca - not in fake luxury. Great place!

Nice accommodation, the staffs were extremely friendly. The shower had some temperature issues, but the stay overall was nice. Located near the entrance of the medina, and easy to find.

Okay, i am a white 19 year old american, casablanca is a place worthy of a day not really a long time. you should see the hassan mosque, eat at ricks cafe, and thats really it. but if you do stay, stay in hotel central. Abdul who works the counter is the nicest guy ever and he gives free hookah and mint tea if you ask. He is a really genuine guy and hes awesome. but casablanca is different from everwhere else and i did get stick for being american. but hotel central was truly great.

Good view from the terrace, nice location near the park, within walking distance of the bus station. Friendly staff. Drains in terrace rooms smell, but these rooms are the best location.

The hotel is located right in the medina, close to the harbor and is rather clean. There is no shower curtain so the whole bathroom is really wet after showering, there is no heating in the rooms, you will have to ask at the reception to get an old and rather noisy radiant heater which is absolutely necessary in winter as you will freeze otherwise. The guy working at the reception was always busy with something else and acted like our questions were none of his business. sounds better than it is

I stayed at Hotel Central for 5 days in the beginning of February with my two teenage children. We all enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff was very helpful all throughout of our stay. Also the breakfast was very authentic and gave a fresh start for every new day. There is a nice terrace on the roof with beautiful views over the area and to the mosque. Location in the medina makes the hotel more attractive. We will come back some day!
