Not recommend

When we arrived in our room, there was a cat lying on our bed. We love cats, but they can carry fleas, and what if we had been allergic? It had apparently got into the room through the open balcony door. In the main area near the reception, there were old sofas. I actually saw a cat urinating on one of them. I reported it to the reception, but during the four hours we spent there waiting for our transfer, nobody cleaned or disinfected the sofa. People were still sitting on it. The food was below average and, unfortunately, nothing really tasted good. The furniture and hotel facilities were old and inadequate. The only positive thing was the swimming pool and the sun loungers. However, there were roosters running around, and their constant crowing repeatedly interrupted our sleep and relaxation. Our room was clean, but it was clearly worn and outdated. The shower/bath curtains were absolutely disgusting — yellow and stained, although they were obviously originally white. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel. There is nothing to do if you are not going to the city which is 30 minutes walk, beach that is near the hotel is small, dirty…

Lovley relaxing atmosphere

Had a lovely time at the Continental Palace, Kos. Friendly staff, close to the beach with a lovely spa, massage area right next to the pool. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable for my 3night stay. Met other soli travellers and felt very safe. Would recommend to friends and family.

Always great

This is our third visit and I have to say every time gets better. We had one of the newly refurbished rooms absolutely perfect with a view to take your breath away every morning. The staff are friendly and cannot do enough for you. We will be back again next year thank you x

Perfect location

Just back from a lovely ten night stay at the Continental Palace. Thank you to all the lovely staff, Irene you were a star! The location was perfect for us, we enjoyed strolling along the seafront into town. Our room was very spacious with plenty of storage, housekeeping was immaculate and we both found the beds very comfortable. The roosters did wake us for the first couple of days but we soon got used to them. We always found plenty of food to our taste in the restaurant, the traditional Greek dishes were always delicious. The cats are clean, well fed and affectionate. The pool was lovely and there was no problem getting a sunbed at any time. Books were available to borrow. We noted the lack of kettle and bought one with us. Thank you, a lovely stay

Hotel is tired and needs a bit of TLC

*The hotel is in a perfect location. Our refurbished room was roomy and clean but lacked draw space and the safe could be picked up with one hand so was of no use. *The public areas were very tired and worn. The sofas were very dirty. There were cats everywhere on the sofas, chairs and even the tables, not hygienic at all. *The pool was well placed and there were always beds available but the bed cushions were dirty and again there were cats lying on the ones unoccupied by humans. Also around the pool were lots of chickens and cockerels who were defecating around the sunbed area so you had to be careful where you walked. The cockerels were constantly crowing which didn't disturb us but upset some visitors. The actual pool needs cleaning, there is a thick greasy band around the rim. *The Restaurant was a good size and very clean, there were always tables available, the staff were excellent, very pleasant and efficient. The food, however could have been better. There were some lovely dishes but in general the food tended to be repetitive and boring resulting in us eating out on a few occasions. *The Bar staff were excellent and the drinks were reasonably priced. There was only Entertainment on four nights and some was good but some not so.
