The Centrepoint Hotel

“Good location, good hotel, all around very good”

Staying in this hotel and the location turn out to be a very good choice. I was choosing between the downtown and the Gadong area. Brunei and it's capital it's not very big or bustling.

Staying in this hotel and the location turn out to be a very good choice. I was choosing between the downtown and the Gadong area. Brunei and it's capital it's not very big or bustling. But around this hotel is very lively and has plenty of restaurants to choose from inside and outside of the mall. When I read other people's review and mentioned that the hotel was a little bit old. I was worried there was going to be old run down, with musty smell. But that is not the case. It is a little bit old but they kept it up very nicely. There is no chipped pain beta car bed or any thing that makes you think it's run down at all. On the contrary it's very nice. It does feel dated due to its solid wood color themes. The room is great. I went swimming the swimming pool area is great. The breakfast buffet was excellent. And there is a coffee bean coffee shop inside the hotel. And right next to the hotel quite a few other coffee shops and restaurants. The famous night market it's only about a 5 minute walk. Across the street from the hotel are a series of stores and restaurants to choose from. Keep in mind that Brunei it's not a bustling city. Therefore this is about its lively as you will get. In conclusion, The hotel location is great, the staff is great, the accommodation is great, the breakfast is great

“Great location though quite aged”

Great location with many shopping and eating places within walking distance. Decent selection of local food at the buffet breakfast. Rooms were spacious and clean. Our family of 5 was fortunate to have a complimentary upgrade of one of our rooms to a suite in order to have interconnecting rooms. However, condition of the rooms were quite aged and the aircon temperature cannot be adjusted which made it very cold most of the time. In-room Wi-Fi definitely needs improvement as you have to pull a chair and sit near the room door for a decent signal strength. Overall still a reasonable place to stay.

“Lower than the star level”

First in mind: room air temperature was too chill, freezing, despite the fan is off, and temp control set to highest (30°C). I am working in computer industry, and 16°C is the ideal temperature for computer room, but not for human. During the stay, never warmer than 15°C. If I didnt heat fill bath… more

First in mind: room air temperature was too chill, freezing, despite the fan is off, and temp control set to highest (30°C). I am working in computer industry, and 16°C is the ideal temperature for computer room, but not for human. During the stay, never warmer than 15°C. If I didnt heat fill bath tub with hot water, room temp would stay at around 11-13°C Good things: - location near the Mall, many resto around - spacious room Immediate improvement needed: - aircon temperature should be adjustable, able until 25°C. - toilet amenities: cotton buds Further improvement needed - toilet amenities, shaving kit, comb, higher quality of tooth brush - additional door lock of chain type - additional electric socket outlet near bed, of the international type - key-secured access lift - removal of big TV cabinet - list of hotel properties in room - bigger swimming pool

“Average place and good enough for short stay”

I had been here for 2 nights during my business trip to Brunei. Brunei is not a touristy place; so, not many options of accommodation. The Cetrepoint is a reasonable place for stay. The location of the hotel is very good. There are options for eating and shopping around the hotel. The famous night market is just around 5-10 min walking distance. You can find some taxis waiting around the hotel, if not, the hotel staff will arrange it for you. The hotel staff are friendly and warm. The breakfast buffet is also good. This hotel is expensive when compared to the amenities. In general, Brunei is an expensive place and not a tourist destination. This is only reason why I rate it Average.
