Covered with parquet flooring, the 226 square feet rooms of the Grand Hotel Central are very fashionable: do not look for any special decoration or for picture as there are none. Voluntarily very uncluttered, the rooms are grey, which allegedly helps to relax! You will feel the atmosphere once you enter the very dark corridors that make you want to whisper. You would not dare scream, and everything invites you to rest. Once you enter you are welcomed by a very long mirror. The rooms offer a big flat satellite TV screen (28 channels), a DVD player, a CD player, an MP3, two separate king size beds, a stylish armchair and lamps, a grey desk, a free safe with electronic code, a refrigerator and a free mini-bar filled daily, discreet individual air-conditioning and direct telephone line for international calls as well as a paying ADSL connection (6 euros/hour or 14 euros/day). The big windows overlooking the cathedral enjoy triple glazing to insure absolute quiet, which is necessary in the heart of the gothic neighborhood, which is always very lively and sometimes noisy! Blinds also ensure total darkness to sleep like a dormouse. The bathroom, also very stylish, opens with a glass sliding door. It has a bathtub equipped with a flexible shower, non-separate toilet, a hair-dryer, bathrobes, flip-flops and elaborated welcome products using the Korres brand, a Greek cosmetical brand. The washbasin is separated from the bathroom. The 5 junior suites have gorgeous marble bathrooms decorated with butterfly themes, with a telephone, a jacuzzi bathtub, a double vanity unit and a flat LG TV screen suspended on the wall. They also have a lounge and two balconies.
