Hotel Continental Barcelona

Pleasant

There was construction going on in front of property so my Uber couldn't get to me The construction going on

Fantastic location. Bathroom was modern and clean. 24/7 buffet with free beer and froyo. The hotel has a kind of quirky charm. Rooms are a bit dated. Buffet food and breakfast is pretty poor. The air conditioner temperature control was broken and made the room too cold. Coming and going from the room is painful and makes you think twice about going for a quick outing. When you leave your room, the first thing you notice is awful stench. You have to hold your nose while you run to the hallway exit, but the door is locked so you're trapped in the stink. There's a phone on the wall that you have to pick up and then wait for someone in reception to buzz you through the door. Then you're standing at the lift waiting for what seems like forever to take you down to reception where you have to hand in the key before you leave the hotel. They key has a 30cm long key fob attached, so you can't really take it with you. Then you have to go back to the lift and wait again for it take you down to the ground floor so you can finally be out of the horrible hotel. After 2 nights, I decided that was enough and told them I want to leave. They didn't even ask me what was wrong, just suggested switching rooms. I declined since most of the problems are not specific to the room. They forced me to stay one more night in the hotel before refunding me for the remainder of my stay.

Location was very good. Unfortunately, there was so much construction going on that access was a little tough at times. There are two other hotels in the same building. Its an old building that has been refurbished. Once you go through the old automatic door, you enter a charming reception and dining area. Breakfast is included and then there are snacks and drinks 24hrs/day. It encourages people to meet and interact. The rooms were lovely and most had balconies. The bathrooms were completely refurbished. Lots of controls in the room. Lots of places to eat nearby. Needed a human to get on and off the floors. Staff was always responsive.

It was okay apart from the elevator not working,having to pull up 3 suitcases on my own without any help was insane and kindly next time inform people about the constructions happening around cause it was disappointing I wasn’t even sure if that was the hotel I had booked. But I give it a 6 out of 10. It’s too old and stuffy,I mean the entrance to the hotel but location was good.

Location was great. Didn't know that there was construction going on directly in front of the hotel so it made it difficult for Ubers to get me in front of my Location. Other than that the hotel was amazing. Construction work going on

The service and meals provided were great. In addition, the not only was there sodas, juices, coffee and lattes but also beer and wine included!! The short stay… only there a few days to enjoy.

The location was in the center of the gothic quarter which has lots of shopping, eateries, and people day and night. The complimentary snacks and drinks were also very nice to have 24 hours, and the staff was great. Bathroom had no tub but it seemed updated and the microwave and mini fridge was great The a/c in my room was not cooling enough so room felt hot. There was a window I opened but the weather itself was warm and damp. The carpet was dated and held a slight smell to it.

Very nice location very close to the main road Breakfast has hardly no options

Quirky great location clean
