Park Central Hotel - Fort Worth 32.75076, -97.32982

Great location, Old hotel, don't be fooled by the claim of recently remodeled. Outside remodeled only not rooms or lobby.

We stayed last year and again this year. The hotel is within walking distance to the intermodel station plus the city bus and the trolley stop right out infront. It is within walking distance to many eateries. If we needed to go farther, the hotel staff just ordered us a cab & called our room when it had arrived. The hotel is old with dated furnishings, but the beds were comfortable and the staff went out of their way. My husband and I even had elevator races to see who could get to the lobby first & neither one of us ever were stuck. If you're use to the Hilton, this isn't for you- but if you like a small personal hotel-this is it!

There was mold on the ceiling. Two of the lights didn't work. The bathroom was run down. There was half a roll of toilet paper. The room service which is supposed to be open till 2am stopped serving apparently at 1:ooam. It smelled funky. The vending machine took our money. The only positive of this was teh location.

The first sign this might not be the best place to stay was when we went to take the elevator to our room and it was stuck with screaming people inside. I ran to tell staff and they just said oh its opening now like it was an everyday occurance. Room was dirty and old bathroom. It was 50 degrees outside during the day and no heater until after complaining. Also you can hear the bar thru the walls and everyones toilets flushing. And then to top it off, I got up extra early to make sure I would have hot water, it only lasted long enough to get wet, then straight cold, no one else with me could bathe. The only good thing, across the street from convention center. Also be prepared they charge to park at their hotel, and do not refund with stay.

I thought I was getting a newly updated room and it was anything but. It was like a little trashy apartment. The locks on the door were broke and it wasn't real clean but it was across the street from the convention center and the price was conciderably less than the others (you get what you pay for)

TOO MUCH NOISE FROM STREETS AND HOTEL CLUB THAT HAS BANDS. THE ROOM SMELLED REAL BAD. IT'S OLD. THE WATER HAD RUST COMING OUT IT'S PIPE AND MY FELLOW NEIGHBOR HAD ROACHES IN HER ROOM. GREAT LOCATION. FRIENDLY STAFF BUT ONE COMPUTER PRINTER DID NOT WORK.

Would not stay here again if it was free.

Great Location across from the Ft. Worth Convention Center. Comfortable beds!

Location was very good & so was parking. The room & decor was a bit dated, but I think most won't have a problem with that. My complaint was mainly that getting in the bed was like sinking into a pit. Put a new, firmer mattress in the room and I'd stay there again. I would have complained to the front desk about it, but it was too late in the night and I'd been traveling all day- didn't want another hassle.

The hotel had a great location and the staff was very friendly. Room was kept clean but could use a little upgrading. Overall I would recommend the stay.

What you see is what you get. This hotel doesn't pretend to be anything different. It is old, missing some things we come to expect in newer hotels - but, it is clean, functional, and has a friendly and helpful staff. After all, why stay in something you have stayed in 1,000 times before? The Park Central is authentic and honest. Much like the people of Fort Worth - no pretense, value-focused, down to earth.

There are a number of things wrong with this hotel, yet the staff attribute everything to the hotel being "old." There are plenty of old hotels, old buidings, and even old people, but many can be rehabilitated if someone wants to spend the money. That is not the case with this hotel. Here are the complaints: -- the elevators did not consistently work -- there were no coffee pots in the rooms -- the rooms were smelly -- the "water-cooled" air conditioning system didn't always work and room became unbearably hot in JANUARY -- there was no place to get breakfast except two blocks away

The location of this hotel is great. We only walked a couple of blocks to our destination in downtown Ft. Worth. The hotel itself is just old. Ceilings are low and fixtures, etc outdated. If you can get past that, it was a really good deal for the money.

Good room for the money, great location, within walking distance alot of activities. Rooms could use some updating but all and all can't complain. 2 restaurants onsite or many others within walking distance. Staff was very friendly. Would stay again in the future.

We decided to do "mass transit" as the theme for our anniversary. We took the TRE to Ft worth & this hotel was just blocks from the Intermodel Station. It's an older hotel, but the staff and room was great. There are things that need updating, but they are working on them I'm sure.

I could not stay the night at this hotel it was nasty and had have never seen such a hotel like that

We checked into our smoking room and there were no ashtrays so I tried to call the front desk but the phone was not working. I used my cell phone to call the front desk to ask for ashtrays and she brought us 1. There was a cordless phone in the room so I checked to see if it was unplugged. The electric outlet was behind my bead where there were a dozen dead crickets. When I found one in my bed I insisted on changing rooms. While the new room was somewhat cleaner (hair on the bathroon floor), the beds were as hard as a rock.

If you need to go to Downtown Fort Worth, but don't want to pay too much, this is it. Don't expect much more than the location. The place is just OK.

The hotel was a bit old and in need of some touch up work, ie carpet and paint here and there. But otherwise it was A-OK with me. I would recomend this hotel and stay there agin.

compaint 1- I was stuck in the elevator for over 20 minutes. When I finally got out they did not even bother to apologize, in fact the lady acted like I had inconvienced her. Compaint # 2- the bathroom door would not shut. Complaint # 3 check in time is at 2pm, I got there at 2:15 and they had to physically go check to make sure the room was ready, because they could not find the housekeeper.

I was surprise by the hotel as it had only a 2.5 rating but I found it to be a 3.5 star. The decor was great. The bed very comfortable. The service on check in was very good.verything was great except that I asked for an extra blanket and did not get one. I would definately use this hotel again and would recommend it to my friends.

It is in a great location.The people are wonderful and very friendly. The only problem I had with the hotel is it's parking. They need to figure out how they could possibly fix that problem.

We had problems with both the shower water temperature & the room temperature. The water in the shower would go from freezing to very hot randomly when you were taking a shower. We wanted to turn on a little cool air - but the only option was "cool". The air was freezing & the way the air blew out of the vent it was directly on us. We had to turn it off quickly - it was too uncomfortable.

This hotel was run down.Not worth the money.Ive stayed in less expensive hotel and they were better.I will never stay there again!

There is very little or no parking. The room thermostat would not adjust--the desk clerk just said, "the heater is automatically set to kick on when the outside temp. reaches a certain level. I prefer a cool room, not one that is 75 degrees all the time.

One of the elevators out, sink did not drain, toilet flushing questionable. Overpriced and noisy.

Was either very cold or too hot all the time. Air was controlled by main center of the hotel so was never right.

No ammenities, just a place to sleep after a night out on the town. Looked cool from the outside. Very basic on the inside. Was not scared to sleep in the bed or use the bathtub. Secure parking garage was a place. Walking distance from all downtown Ft. Worth.

Definetly not what I expected. Needs to be renovated. Does have some potential but definetly needs a face lift. Nothing to do in the hotel, no breakfast, no shuttle to and from the airport.

Our stay was a disappointment to say the least. The room had a strong foul odor upon entering, dust covered the curtains and bedding, there was mold on the ceiling near the air vent, and the bathroom floor was covered with hair (that wasn't ours). We will not stay there again.

This hotel was OK. The room was clean, but the equipment old and worn. The heater wouldn't come on until is was a 'certain' temperature outside. The fire alarm went off because the bathroom had no fan to absorb the steam from a shower. The elevators both broke and I had to carry my over heavy suitcase down 3 flights of stairs.

Parking was already inadequate, but they were selling what little they had to people attending events across the street at the convention center. They charged us $7.00 as hotel guests, then told us not to take our car out, there would be no spots when we returned. No heat in the room, fairly chilly on a late October night. The shower water ran from extreme hot to extreme cold with about 3 seconds of tolerable water in between. Downtown noice very loud in the room until wee hours of the night. People running up and down the exterior walkway in front of the rooms, yelling and partying until about 3:00 am. Beer bottles everywhere in the morning. Elevators not working properly. No coffee pots in rooms, the pot in the lobby was old, no matter, no coffee cups available anyway. The room didn't seem too dirty as long as you didn't look at the light switches. They were so nasty I wouldn't touch them with my bare hands. Worst hotel stay ever. Not worth the money!!

We saw the negative reviews and decided to book this room anyway. We were glad we did! For the money we found a clean room, friendly and helpful staff, and it's in a great location! We were within walking distance to all the great resturants, shopping and nightlife. There is a pool that is maintained and clean. We really enjoyed are weekend getaway and will stay here again!

The hotel is in need of some improvements and updates, it is definitely nothing to write home about, but is does have some character (one of the elevators will not stop at the 4th floor going up, and will not not leave the 5th floor to stop on the 4th on the way down unless you also push the 3rd floor button) :) The hotel reminded me of some of the dives I used to stay at on vacation as a kid. It was definitely convenient access to the convention center. Despite it's lack of creature comforts it does provide the necessities with the addition of the good location and I would consider staying there again. As with everything in the downtown location, parking is a premium but even if hotel parking is full there are pay lots nearby.

The non smoking room smelled of smoke. The staff was friendly. The elevator was scarey. We waited several minutes in the restaurant but no one came to our table. I believe the waitress was hiding.

The room was old and disgusting. The bathroom was filthy. The sheets looked old and possibly even soiled. There was feces on the toilet. We left immediately and stayed at a different hotel.

The only complaint I have about the hotel is when taking a shower- the water temp would change with out notice to scalding hot!! I thought the staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean.

This hotel is old, yes, but that should have nothing to do with cleanliness. Hotel staff are apparently not very picky about you seeing other people's hair on the restroom, yuck!
