Continental Palace

BIJ het bezoek was ijskast stuk,maar bij melden van probleem bij de jongedame Stavrolou(blond haar) was diezelfde dag nog nieuwe koeling aangebracht!Het 2de probleem ontstond wanneer er 2 koppels naast en boven mij kwamen logeren!Bij aankomst viel mijn tv-sattelietverbinding weg,kon geen enkele zender meer ontvangen?????De dag daarna werd ik belogen,het was de schuld van de satteliet zogezegd!!!Daarna kwam ik bij vrienden aan andere kant hotel op hun kamer en zag dat daar alles ok was:tv ging met alle zenders,wifi ging zonder iedere minuut weg te vallen!DEkamers veel rustiger en genoeg warm water en druk op kranen! Het eten was heel verzorgd en lekker＞top! Kamers verzorgd maar geen engels sprekende kuisdames,die trouwens de voorlaatste dag voor vertrek naar huis mijn fruitschaal nog hebben leeggejat De waarheid＞Philip Staes

A late review as we stayed in September 24. Reasonably good value for the price paid (via TUI). Friendly, helpful staff. Clean room with a fridge; quiet, efficient aircon unit was included in price (and essential with early September daytime temperatures 30s and evening 20s C); reasonable side sea view; beds very firm. Food generally good with reasonable choice; plenty of sunbeds by the pool and on lawns. Relaxed, quiet pool area; reasonable size pool with lifeguard. This hotel is more suitable for older couples than families with children (as meagre playground, no apparent children’s entertainment or daytime activities in September; charges for use of table tennis and pool table; no shallow end in the pool for small children although separate paddling pool). Beach close to the hotel is a small stretch of sand with pebbles at water edge; sheltered and fine for swimming but no beach sunbeds (nearby bar/restaurant overlooking the sea offers sunbeds for their patrons).10 minute stroll on the level into charming Kos Town with its boat trips and day trip by ferry (30 mins) to Bodrum, Turkey (remember your passport!) with its Tuesday clothing market (if you’re interested, always ask Euro price first, then offer very low, haggle hard and be ready to walk away! No problem paying with UK Pounds or Euros if spending cash there). Bodrum Castle is adjacent to the ferry terminal and the market a 10 mins walk away. A few hotel downsides. No hot water for half of the hotel including our room for 2 days awaiting system repair. One of the restaurant staff was curt (the others were always very friendly and helpful); gluten free meal options were very limited and accurate gluten free labelling would be advisable; inadequate aircon in the dining room - would be better if breakfast and dinner had the option of tables outside. The evening ‘meal’ for late flight arrivals was an abysmal snack. Evening entertainment was only 4 nights each week, (one was Karaoke, one a Greek music/dancing night, but two nights featured good singers including an exceptional guitarist). Furnishings in Bar lounge are tired/dated. Overall an enjoyable hotel. Thank you Irene on Reception desk for all your assistance.

The hotel is still from the 70th. The room for breakfast is dirty and the employees of the hotel are not sufficient available with hosts in trying to fix problems.
