The location was excellent, close to both the airport and the city center. The staff were friendly and even arranged a last-minute taxi for us when our Uber didn't arrive. However, cleanliness was a bit lacking, especially in the shower area. Despite this, the property was comfortable and budget-friendly, with a cozy bed that ensured a good night's sleep. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement in cleanliness.

The Hotel Central is a small, family run hotel in the "newer" section of Carcassonne. It is within easy walking distance of the train station, the center of the newer part of town, and even walkable to the old town - the Cite. The rooms are comfortable and include a full bathroom. The fact that it is family run gives it a cozy feeling. We chose not to purchase the breakfast because there are plenty of easy to reach cafes and bakeries in the vicinity.

If we had chosen to purchase the breakfast, there would not have been an outdoor seating option available. We are still Covid-cautious, so this matters to us.

The room was clean and the shower was good. The bed was comfortable and there was a table so that I could work. The staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was nice. It was a great location, close to the station and the old town. Very nice area.

I could only stay for 1 night and check in after 3pm. I could hear the people in the room next door.

Friendly and helpful staff; excellent location. En-suite washroom was satisfactorily equipped.

Noise from people in neighbouring buildins during the night, when we left the window open for fresh air. Window opens on a courtyard onto which other buildings look. There was lots of loud talking late at night and early in the morning - guess there is little one can do about that, but we had to shut the window.

Excellent position of Hotel and fairly quiet even though just off a busy road and a busy restaurant below. Gentleman on reception was really friendly and helpful - a real credit to his employer. Very basic hotel in need of a bit of TLC and modernisation but for the price was great and would definately stay there again.

The hotel was located within east walking distance of the main train station and the centre of Carcassonne. The room was comfortable. The staff was friendly. The breakfast was buffet style. The room was inexpensive and it was en-suite.

There was only one plug socket that I could find in the room.

Sayed a second night as so convenient to all areas of the modern town. (See previous review)

No lift might be an issue for some guests. No tea /coffee facilities in room or in commumal area other than at breakfast.

Our original booking at Hotel Central was changed to Hôtel de la Bastide and we were informed well in advance. This review is for Hôtel de la Bastide, which was a simple, straightforward hotel that made for a relaxing stay. Staff at reception were particularly good - helpful and cheerful.

The room was very spacey, and the hotel was located in good spot, close to everywhere worth seeing in Carcassonne

The beds were a bit uncomfortable. Also, hot water needed few minutes to start running, which is not that terrible, but can be troublesome if you need to shower quick

The location is excellent. Just far enough away from the hype of Carcassonne to be peaceful and yet close enough to be easily accessible. All the services and facilities sought by a traveller are close to hand.

I do prefer a walk-in shower. Hotels of this age often don't provide that service. Not a complaint so much as an unmet preference.
