Location was very handy for access to the Hoe, Barbican and city centre on foot. On - site parking adequate, but charged as an extra.

When booking the option of a continental breakfast was not mentioned, only the full breakfast. However, we had the continental breakfast, but paid on each occassion. There seemed to be a reluctance to take a card imprint and charge things to the room. It would also be useful if a sketch map was available as access to the car park is not obvious on arrival, but no problem once you have found it.

The location is very good for visiting The Hoe and the town centre. Plenty of bars and restaurants within a few minutes walk. Safe feeling area. The room was clean and comfortable. Car parking for the length of your stay for £7.50 each day. Nice bar and good selection of drinks on offer. The pool is small but ok for a quick dip.

We stayed in the Four Poster room. The photographs on the hotel website are very deceptive. The room is so much smaller than it looks on the pictures. Unable to pay for early check-in. Predominantly, men in the gym and sauna which could be a bit intimidating for lone women.

We had a truly pleasant stay at the New Continental Hotel in Plymouth. From the moment we arrived, the charm of the hotel was evident—beautiful original features have been thoughtfully maintained, giving it real character, while everything remains modern, clean, and well cared for. Lovely big room with high cieling. Very comfortable. We especially enjoyed relaxing in the pool, steam room, and sauna after a day out exploring. It was the perfect way to unwind. The highlight in the morning was the lovely full English breakfast—fresh, tasty, and served in a welcoming setting. Overall, a great experience. We'd happily return!

The hotel itself was fantastic. The staff were friendly, both upon check in and when I called to discuss my booking. The facilities were great, there was everything you needed in the room; you were also given access to all of the sauna and swim facilities, sadly the purpose of our trip didn’t allow for this - but will definitely keep this in mind when we book again. The best part for us was the location - we were attending a gig in the pavilions and it was quite literally on the doorstep!

There wasn’t anything I didn’t like, though a lock on the bathroom door would have been a bonus.

It's a very nice hotel with friendly staff and good facilities. The bar was a nice place to hang out. The location is ideal for quick access to the town centre. Parking was easy and on site, which was appreciated. The cooked breakfast was of good quality with lots of options. The room service fries were nice. I wish I had packed some swimming kit to use the pool.

Some of the room service food had a certain tang to it. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but it was not very nice and I could not finish my meals. This "tang" was on 2 different types of meal (burger and pizza), ordered on separate days. I suspect it was down to a certain oven being used or an oven tray perhaps? I don't know but I think you should investigate it. Neither the cooked breakfast nor the fries had that same "tang" if that helps you narrow it down. Disappointing because they had the potential to be really tasty. The sash windows rattle and I had to put some folded paper in the gaps to stop this, however it was a stormy weekend so may not always be like that.

Had a slight delay in arriving to the hotel but when I called to inform them they had no problem with me arriving late as the reception at the hotel is covered 24 hours. When I did arrive I was greeted with a kind and welcoming smile and was asked how my evening had been which after having a rocky start to the evening was great to hear. From the hotel was a short walk to the ceremony venue and only a 15 minute walk to the reception venue which was amazing as was helping to take photos of the wedding. The hotel is right near the city centre and is only a twenty minute walk from the train station.

I loved that the rooms still had some original older features rather than ultra modern. The bathroom facilities were modernised and exceptionally clean. The beds were very comfy. I loved the characteristics like slightly uneven flooring and old windows which made me really feel the history of the place. The walls were thick and I heard hardly any noise apart from within my room.

I couldn't work out how to turn heating down so woke a little hot in the middle of the night but I probably could of asked! I couldnt work out the windows and if they opened or not.

The room was large and airy and the large double bed and pillows very comfortable. Good shower. Parking was available for a fee. The staff all very pleasant and helpful. Pool is good but you have to pick your times for a swim. The general cleanliness is very good considering the age of the hotel. Breakfast good and ensured GF/DF option request.

Sadly the public spaces in the hotel have a weird smell, probably a mix of chlorine from the pool and cooked food (the rooms do not smell and are very good). We opted for breakfast both mornings we were there. My partner ordered kippers and poached egg and got a small kipper and a poached egg - perhaps remove the ‘s’ from the word kippers. Quite sad for a fishing port city.

Stayed in a large family room 3 adults 2 teenagers and there was plenty of room for us all lots of storage well placed mirrors . coffee tea biscuits filled up daily . Never had to ask for extra towels . Room cleaned daily . The pool was a great success used it daily . Breakfast excellent . Nice bar for evening drink having parking all stay was a massive bonus . 10 minute walk to the Hoe and Barbican . Highly recommend this hotel

I always stay in this hotel, when I visit Plymouth. Someone can walk from the train station down to the hotel within 20 minutes. The check in and check out was very quick, my room was very warm with a spa bath, four poster bed, tea/coffee/milk and kettle were in the room, soap/shampoo were in the bathroom. The room was clean and the hallways, public areas were well kept. I had a wonderful cook breakfast with green tea and a with Danish. All the staff in the hotel are warm and friendly, always showing kindness. Louse is a wonderful person on the front desk in reception, she is a polite, caring young lady, though I do feel the hotel is very lucky to have a special person working there. You can always tell when a company is good, because they have a low turn around of staff, thus, I have been staying to the same hotel for many years, with most of the time the same staff greet me.
