Great prices, comfy room and central location. Plenty of parking and helpful staff. Breakfast is excellent and used the pool whilst staying in a large family room. Bar and food is good too, looking at booking our third stay new year having returned home today.

It is a most beautiful hotel indeed. I stayed for 2 weeks yet extended to a 3rd week. The place is within walking distance to all attractions. The rooms are very presentable, very clean, and always serviced every day. I often had full breast-fast which was always delicious with many choices to chose from. I loved dining in at the restaurant downstairs, it is a wonderful atmosphere. The staff are amazing and delightful to speak to, always willing to help and are very friendly. There are other facilities like pool and gym which make the hotel even more attractive.

Lovely room with good sized bathroom. Didn’t have time to use the pool facilities but it looked very nice. Full English breakfast was piping hot and served very promptly. Would definitely stay again, very close to the Hoe and well situated.

Whole experience was excellent, great nights sleep, great breakfast. Great staff who made our wedding weekend stay including marriage ceremony and reception the most wonderful event. A few slight hiccups but staff were straight on it to give us a truly memorable day. Can't thank all the new continental Hotel staff enough.

This is a lovely old type hotel. The rooms are large and ours was perfectly clean. The bed linen smelt wonderful leaving me wondering what laundry detergent they use. …

We had a fantastic weekend stay at the new continental this past weekend. Check-in was fast, friendly, and professional. Our room was bright and clean and had everything we could need. The air con in the room was a fantastic treat! Breakfast was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times. We can't recommend this lovely family run hotel enough. Thank you.

It’s a big old hotel. Everything is only a 10-15 minute walk in most directions. The car park is ample, but a bit tight in places. ||Nice staff (especially the bar staff). Big gym (3 rooms) and pool. Rooms are large. Just needs a bit of a renovation.
