“Newly Remodeled, Clean, Good Location for Historic Lima”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2011
2
people found this review helpful

This newly renovated hotel is located one block from Plaza San Martin, and only a few blocks from Plaza de Armas. Centrally located for all the historic sights in the center of old Lima. The rooms are clean, but small. Free Internet in the room, and acceptable continental breakfast. There's a large, new Metro supermarket just a few blocks away. Staff is friendly, but their English is limited. There are several local bars down the street. Street noise drifts up to the rooms, but it will in almost any place in the city center. This is a preferable option to the old and crusty Gran Hotel Bolivar one block away. The negative reviews are outdated.

Lovely staff, nice and varied breakfast but extremely cold rooms as unfortunately the hotel doesn't have central heating. Killer location. Generally a pleasant experience.

“The Continental is a well priced, clean, friendly, centrally located hotel with excellent service.”

There is an english speaking person on the front desk on every shift. The staff is friendly, helpful and polite. Rooms are clean and well kept. There is plenty of hot water with very good water pressure. Requests by guests for extra blankets, etc are given prompt service. The food is also very good. I highly recommend the Continental Hotel and look forward at staying at this hotel again.

“Good Hotel near Plaza de Armas”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 March 2009
1
person found this review helpful

This is a good hotel located near the Plaza de Armas. The hotel arranged transport for our group and we arrived there late. The staff was waiting for us and checked us in promptly. Room was fine, bathroom was nice. Good hot water, but one of the other rooms our group had didn't always have hot water. Get a room on the first couple of floors. Construction going on, but didn't effect our visit. Breakfast is lame. A piece of bread and milk with coffee, but I've had the same in London. Overall not bad for the price and the staff is young and very nice.

“Dirty and not a nice hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 July 2008

person found this review helpful

I booked a double room, but they gave me a single room. After 4 days i got the double room. The rooms are dirty, my stay was for 2 weeks and i guess i got hot water in the shower just a couple of days (in the morning). 2 small pcs of bread for breakfast, thats all. The coffee was good tho....
There are so many nice hotels in lima, so next time (2009) we are gonna choose another hotel.
