Café da manhã muito bom, pessoal atencioso e muito bem localizado no centro de Recife. É um Hotel dos anos 30, não tem as acomodações dos hoteis mais novos, mas atende muito bem ao propósito, para quem quer ficar no…
PhilippeFranceSuper moment dans cet hôtel colonial . Et très bien placé
L’hôtel est plutôt vétuste, mais il possède en revanche un charme fou. C’est un ancien hôtel colonial, avec notamment un vieil ascenseur d’époque, encore en service, qu’une personne fait fonctionner pour vous.
J’ai adoré…
Maria GizeleBrazilBom custo benefício
Bom atendimento e boa localização. Móveis, elevador e ambiente bem antigos, fazendo parecer uma viagem no tempo.
Colchão muito desconfortável e ar que não resfria o suficiente.
Lucas AndersonBrazilSurpreendeu positivamente
Os atendentes são legais e o lugar é muito bonito. Parece um hotel de época, inclusive os quartos. É simples mas é bem limpo. Os lençóis estavam limpos, o chuveiro elétrico funcionava bem, o ventilador era limpo e…

Rates include the taxes and fees we can read.
The property may take a card at check-in for incidentals.
What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether breakfast is in the rate or added at checkout, and what time it runs.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Hotel Central
What time is check-in and check-out at Hotel Central?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 12:30 PM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Hotel Central allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Hotel Central?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Is breakfast included at Hotel Central?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Hotel Central have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Hotel Central?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Hotel Central have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Hotel Central?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Hotel Central?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
Where is Hotel Central?
