I live in Fort Worth and I've seen this hotel frequently during my life. It always looked pretty seedy. About 2 months ago, I noticed that it had a facelift and a beautiful panther fountain out front. When my best friend told me she was coming to town, I had no qualms about putting her up at the Park Central. They have excellent rates for a downtown hotel, and its walking distance to much of the good stuff in Fort Worth. Her room had sumptuous linens and cozy mattresses, if a bit tight with all the furniture. The friendly staff made her stay quite a pleasure. I will not hesitate to make the Park Central my guest room again in the future.

I've read many negative and so-so reviews of the Park Central, but since its remodel, it has overcome many of the issues cited and I certainly recommend it to the budget concious traveler.

My wife and I decided to book this hotel for our office Christmas party. When we checked in, the clerk at the front desk had trouble locating our booking so bring your confirmation #. We had ordered a King Non-Smoking and were given a room with 2 double beds. I had to wait in line at the front desk behind 3 customers who were irate because the AC was out. Upon checking in, they gave me keys to room 217. We lugged all our bagage up the stairs and tried the keys which did not work. When I went to the Front desk they made me wait while contacting maintenance crews about the AC.

After a few minutes waiting the clerk told me

What was I thinking? I can not believe I somehow overlooked checking Tripadvisor before I booked this place. Lesson learned big time!

What would have once been a truly funky, 60's era motel is WELL overdue for a SERIOUS refurb! At $99 + tax + $7 car parking per nite, I was expecting a basic, but still reasonable standard. Not to be. Sagging beds, stained carpets & so, so poorly maintained in every respect. It was enough to make a once proud hospitality industry worker weep. And then there was the noise... I can only guess downtown hotel Fort Worth accommodation demand is outstripping supply, cos The Park Central, in its current incarnation, is not worth the bucks.

Literally pay the extra dollar or two, & have yourself an enjoyable stay at one of the other downtown hotels. It is an otherwise really lovely, rusurgent city center.

Stayed at this so called hotel for a conference held at the convention center. The only good thing I can say was it was right across the street from it. Floors are so dirty you can't walk on the with out shoes, window so dirt you can barely see out. Parking gargage is a joke. Not even big enough for the amount of rooms that they have. One of elevators will not open on the second floor. We use the steps. Also our key card would not work daily. One day I had to have my card recharged "5" times. They even changed the battery pack on door and it still did not help.
I realize this is a old hotel but with only a little tlc this could be a really nice hotel. Carpert and paint, drapes, beding. The week we were there they were full at $100.00 a night times 6 night by 75 rooms. (They list 101 I think but not that many are rented some hold junk)

Went to Fort Worth for a business training at the convention center and stayed here for 4 hideous nights! The only good thing about it was that it was right accross the street from the convention center. The room was dirty and there were nasty stains on the floor and the mattress. The bathtub was dirty and stained and there was hair in the sink! The windows had so much scum on the inside and outside that you could not see through them.
Another woman in oour group had the mirror to fall from the wall and into her belongings!
The staff, with the exception of one girl , were simply trying to overcome their situation. They tried to be helpful and friendly , but even they knew that the place was beyond redemption!!!!
I was very dissapointed as this was my first trip here. Next year , believe me , I will be forking my money over to stay at a clean, non-scary, hotel!
