Guest Reviews

Congress Plaza Hotel

Agoda 9.6 Couple

Renovated rooms are clean, and the location and price are excellent. Recommend eating breakfast outside.

Expedia 8.0 Solo

Great historic vibe and very convenient location. A no-frills hotel that gets the job done.

Hallway carpets are worn and hot water can be inconsistent.

Trip.com 9.0 Family

Fantastic location with easy access to public transport. Recently renovated rooms are satisfactory.

Non-renovated floors need improvement in common areas.
