Reviews
The room itself was clean and visually appealing – a good start. However, things got 'creative' afterwards: I had booked a 'courtyard view,' but upon arrival, I was told I'd reserved a room without a window. They generously offered me a 'great, free upgrade,' accompanied by an explicit request to highlight this positively in my review.
This adventurous upgrade, however, came with a complete power and Wi-Fi outage. My phone died, and planning my route for the next day became impossible. Since elevators, as we know, have a fondness for electricity, I had the athletic opportunity to exit the hotel on foot once the emergency lighting in the stairwell kicked in.
The minimalism continued with the culinary offerings: The advertised breakfast turned out to be a solitary chai tea bag and a paper cup for preparation in the room. Solid food – contrary to the hotel description – was nowhere to be found. If you enjoy guessing what's coming next in the dark, this is the perfect place for you. Personally, when booking, I prefer a certain level of predictability.
I recently had the pleasure of staying for one night at the Continental Hotel and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the impeccable cleanliness of the entire establishment. The room was spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly comfortable, making for a perfect night's rest.
What truly elevated my stay, though, was the wonderful staff. Everyone I encountered was very kind and professional, but I must give a special shout-out to the receptionist, Yasin. He was exceptionally helpful and made the check-in and check-out process seamless. His warm demeanor and willingness to assist made a huge difference.
I am thoroughly impressed and can confidently say that the Continental Hotel will be my go-to choice every single time I am traveling. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!
Yasin also helped my mom by bringing her suitcase to her room and arranging a taxi for her departure. His support made the whole experience stress-free for both of us.
I truly appreciate his professionalism and kindness, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.
The staff member who returned was still busy promoting room service.
The person who carried my luggage to my room was unaware and paced around the room, seemingly hoping for a tip. I won't stay here again.
There are plenty of hotels in this area with more professional staff in a similar price range.
