    Unfortunately the restaurant was closed on the Saturday evening so we had to dine elsewhere in town. Access was via an alley round the back.

    Pretty much what we expected if slightly dated.

    The walls were thin so I could hear the next door guest. I also got badly bitten by mosquitoes, but this appears to be common in The Netherlands.

    It was in a good location. The room was quite big and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was fine. It was in an old building, which gave it character.

    People with mobility problems should be aware that the stairs to the upper floors are steep and the treads are quite small - not big enough to fit all of your foot onto. To be fair, the stairs are typical of those in many historic Dutch buildings and they should probably be left unchanged as they are an important part of this beautiful and historic old hotel! Able bodied people are unlikely to have any problems and should not be put off in any way by this comment.

    This beautiful, traditional old Dutch hotel is situated on a quiet street just a short walk away from the lively centre of the gorgeous and historic old town of Harlingen. The bar and restaurant areas are tastefully furnished and decorated. My room was old fashioned, however it was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was superb - a great range of high quality items were available from the breakfast bar and you can eat as much as you like. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The big Dutch guy with the shaven head was a very helpful and jovial character!

    The decor is a bit tired. I don"t like stand-in-the- bath showers.

    Great position, near the centre. Secure bike storage, but not under cover. Coffee and tea facilities in room. Amazing breakfast!

    the bed was a little too soft for my liking family got split up on different locations. Would be nice for future reference if a group books together that they know they are not in the same building

    great location, very cosy place to stay, loved the breakfast that was really a great highlight, had a great view from my room, the staff was very friendly and the rooms were very clean.

    There were a bit of noises in the bedroom unfortunately.

    The hotel is well located in the center of the city. It is like a big house with several rooms. Everything is clean and you feel great in the bedroom. The breakfast was good.

    When I visit Harlingen the next time, I will just ask for the room on the first floor. The second floor was a bit inconvenient for me.

    Everything in the hotel Centraal was perfect for my special trip to Harlingen. It is located close to the harbor, train station, beach and the city center. The room is clean and has everything what is needed. The rich breakfast is really amazing. I also appreciate nice and friendly staff.

    No one at reception when we arrived. waited around for 10 mins. before someone showed up.

    THE BREAKFAST WAS TRUELY AMAZING. one of the best breakfasts that I have eaten in Nederland; 8 types of cold meats, smoked salmon and the chance to fry your own fried eggs, good coffee. 10 out of 10. Also really friendly and helpful family that run the hotel. If I visit Harlingen again I know where I would stay. Really comfortable room with all one could wish for. bath, toiletries, air cooler, coffee and tea, fridge etc.

    Two things in particular - we were shown to a ground floor room! We had previously been in a hotel that required us climbing to the third floor and in a home exchange requiring us to climb to the 5th floor! We knew that going in but were quite delighted not to have to climb stairs this time. The other was the breakfast served. Often European breakfasts consist of bread, cheese and sandwich meat, but this hotel also provided scrambled eggs, slices of baked ham, a good fruit spread and even smoked salmon. Definitely exceptional good value!
