Ibis Lodz Centrum

That hotel is quite old. Rooms did not change in last 20 years, so you can feel like in 2000. I think it is the reason that hotel is 2* only. Rooms should really already be updated. But hotel is quite clean, inexpensive and situated very close to Piotrkowska street. Service is also nice.

Great service, bartenders are awesome! Drinks are great! Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and get cleaned regularly. Hotel food is good though nothing fancy. Breakfast downstairs is decent. Lots to do in the immediate local area.

We have never experienced such bad service from an individual in hospitality. The receptionist (possibly manager?) is the rudest person I have met. Plenty of other hotels in the vicinity to chose from.

Location: at the bottom of the main street (itself about a mile long), located next to numerous attractions and many tram routes (Piotrkowska station), 20-30 minutes walk from the main Fabryczna station or a 3 zloty 10 minute trip on tram 18B (every 15 minutes). Couldn't ask for a better location. Check-in: very quick, room keys were already prepared. I do not do on-line check in with Accor as it usually screws up any ALL bonus point offers. This Ibis has retained a proper reception desk which is a much better and quicker level of service as staff have everything they need to hand, rather than roaming around with a tablet. Room: Typical Ibis colours and furnishings, if you've stayed in one Ibis you've stayed in them all! Only thing I would change is getting rid of the waterproof lining on top of the comforter on the bed. By the third night that was getting a little annoying. Design: the hotel is a huge atrium, and on three sides it only has rooms facing out, and the fourth side it also has rooms facing inwards too. I don't think I'd like to stay in these, However as a design I really liked it. Breakfast: another plus, decent selection of hot and cold breakfast items. Really tasty mixed fruit salad is particularly memorable. Staff worked very hard clearing tables and refilling all the food items. They couldn't have worked any harder or faster. Only had one quick drink in the bar so can't comment much. I think the restaurant was closed as they were advertising to use the Novotel next door. So, location, design, price, and yes ALL status recognition, this maybe my favourite Ibis hotel....
