Sentralt med innendørs basseng
Svært trivelige og hjelpsomme resepsjonister, spesielt en yngre dame og en eldre mann. God og gratis kaffe i resepsjonen som vi satte stor pris på. Helt ok frokost. Beliggenheten er super med gangavstand til sentrum, gamlebyen og div kjøpesenter. Rommet var rent og noe mer moderne enn forventet. Bonus med tilgang til digre svømmebasseng og mulighet for å sole seg, til tross for litt slitne fasiliteter. Perfekt for fikk avkjølt oss siden var ca 35 grader i Skopje. Minner om at dette er et 3,5 stjerners hotell og klassifiseringen tilsvarer forventningene.

Great location, great amenities
One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. The receptionists were super friendly, the rooms are in a quiet location, and they have awesome amenities, especially the Olympic distance swimming pool. This was especially helpful for after a marathon, when I had already checked out of the hotel, and had no more access to a shower.

Not so pleasant trip
I've been staying at this hotel several times before. This time, though, we have been allocated a room at the ground floor, wall to wall with the Olympic pool. To be honest, I am not sure if that is really an Olympic pool or a discotheque. The thing is that until 11 pm I couldn't sleep, due to the exaggerated (in dB terms) music. Really terrible!

Don’t judge by outside appearance!
This hotel is housed at one end of a communist-era, rusty-looking indoor swimming center, so at first sight you don’t even realize it’s the hotel. This is especially true if you use Google to guide you walking from the train station since you arrive at the rear. Once inside, however, its quite nice. The staff was friendly, helpful, and spoke good English and a good breakfast was served in a pleasant room. It’s a short walk to the river and the main downtown sites. Overall, it’s a great choice once you overcome your initial misgivings!

Perfect combination of price and location
Hotel Centar is near enough to the key tourist sights for easy walking, yet not so close that the rates are up there with the Marriott and its ilk. For us, it was great base for exploring Skopje. Staff were exceptionally friendly, the room condition was good, and the breakfast adequate for preparing us for a day taking in Skopje.

The hotel is in a bit of an awkward location as it is kind of in a strip mall, and it doesnt look like much on the outside. But once you get past those facts, it is a very reasonably priced, comfortable place to stay; the value was very good. It's about a 5 minute walk from the riverfront area/Macedonia square, so its close enough to walk but far enough that you dont have any noise associated with the nightlife in that area. The front desk service was great and very friendly. Overall, this is a good establishment and I would recommend people visiting Skopje stay here.

Larm med larm uden hjælp at hente
Måtte flere gange henvende mig grundet larm. Først var det køleskabet, som blev slukket så jeg ikke havde koldt vand til morgen. Efterfølgende var det naboernes aircondition og toilet der kunne høres- hotellet konkluderede blot at det var et vilkår og at der desværre ikke var andre værelser at flytte mig på.

Fint hotel til god pris, centralt i Skopje
Hotellet er lidt slidt, men har formentlig været et virkelig fornemt hotel da det blev bygget. Det er renoveret for nogle år siden, og værelser og faciliteter er absolut ok, uden at være prangende. Du får et fint værelse for pengene. Morgenmaden var dog ikke nogen oplevelse overhovedet. Omgivelserne er lidt slidte, men hotellet ligger virkelig centralt i forhold til centrum i Skopje.
