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

After reading some of the reviews we were a bit worried about coming here, but quickly realises there was no need to be. Check in was quick, also as we arrived late food and drinks were left in our room. Room was a good size, beds comfortable and ample wardrobe and drawers space. Food was really good, with plenty of choice, staff really friendly and hard working. Pool bar is really good and does amazing snacks. The entertainment area is more than adequate, with lots of room. And though we didn't go every night, the nights we did go the acts were good, especially the rock night and the Greek night. You can have a pleasant walk into Kos Town from this hotel. We would have no hesitation into returning here.

Me and my partner travelled in the first week of June to stay at this lovely hotel for 4 nights. Firstly… ignore the bad reviews, we were a bit worried from reading some of them (your always going to get the moaners over petty things!) we had a truly great experience. On arrival we had a very warm welcome from the receptionist Irene, she made us feel at ease straight away. She gave us a very informative run down of where everything was, also notifying us of the islands tourist tax, Irene chatted to us most days and just made us feel really welcome. The reception area is very large with lots of lovely sofas to relax on, along with an information area sharing all about the local excursions and weekly hotel entertainment. There were also communal showers, toilets and a luggage holding area space in reception. The Room Our room was basic but clean. We had a good working air con which we definitely needed (our first day was 37 degrees!) we also had a mini fridge, tv and a beautiful view of the sea from our balcony. There was also plenty of storage! A big thank you to the house keeping staff who cleaned our room every day and supplied us with lots of towels! Facilities The hotel has a games room with table tennis and snooker. There are lots of sofas for just relaxing by the lounge bar, if you fancy sitting outside for a drink instead, there are lots of comfy seating outside too again right by a bar, this is also where evening entertainment is held. We thought the pool was fab, clean and not over crowded with plenty of sun beds, there was the opportunity to have a massage which takes place in a open marquee right by the pool, Christina the masseuse is amazing she is a great addition to the hotel services, for a 30 minute Swedish massage I was charged 40€. For this you can pay cash or card. Food We had booked half board, breakfast and dinner were good. There was definitely lots of variety… you won’t starve put it that way. There was always a big salad bar, a range of different puddings on each day, cooked English breakfast in the morning, fruit, yoghurt, etc. Sometimes it felt the food could have been a bit fresher (the bread and sliced fruit in particular) we also ordered juice at breakfast but it tasted like squash… this is obviously a very minor detail, just something to consider. On the whole it was good. We also ate in the snack bar area near the pool a few times, the food here was great and the staff were very polite and efficient. I must also say the dining room staff were absolutely brilliant. We were always welcomed with a smile, they always wanted to help where they could, they made it a really pleasant experience. Location This was our first time to Kos so we didn’t really know what to expect. The hotel in our opinion is located in the best area of the island after trekking the whole island on a quad bike exploring (yes we really did!) The hotel is basically opposite the most gorgeous marina lined with lovely restaurants, Kos town

We went to the Continental Palace Hotel for 2 weeks in May. Having read some not too good reviews we were a bit worried. However, the reality of this lovely hotel was quite a different experience. From the reception in, with Stavroula and the other reception staff, the greeting and check in process was great. The hotel is set in lovely gardens with flowers everywhere. Pool area is very attractive with a very good snack bar. Pool towels were complimentary. Rooms in the hotel were spacious with great storage and very comfortable beds. They were cleaned every day with fresh towels. Bed linen every couple of days. Main dining restaurant is lovely and the food was very good, plentiful and hot. Local cuisine was excellent. Guests in the dining room with Irini and the rest of the staff were very well looked after. Bar is very big and has a lovely courtyard with ample comfortable seats. There is entertainment several nights a week. It is also a great place to sit and relax in the daytime to just chill and read. Small beach across the road and several bar restaurants with beach and sun bed facilities. ~We chose Theodorou because it is so comfortable. There is a very good supermarket outside the gate of the hotel. Bus stop across the road to Kos town. However, it is a very pleasant 20 minute walk into town This hotel under the direction of manager Mr. Yiannis, was great. We will definitely return.

Excellent choice either for holidays or business visit. In quiet area but within walking distance from the center. Warm welcome, smily staff, clean rooms. Very good entertainment evening, especially the rock band. And very safe for solo travellers

I stayed here a couple of years ago and have just remembered how awful the experience was so have to warn others to stay away! I booked two separate rooms for myself and my parents as we were part of a family birthday holiday only to get there in the middle of the night and be handed one key. Upon showing them the booking confirmation that we had booked two rooms they informed us there was nothing they could do until the morning as they don’t have a room available! We booked the hotel months and months in advance but I ended up having to share a room with my parents. The next day we were told they don’t have a room available for another 2 days, disposable! But they couldn’t refund us as it’s ’not their fault’, instead we were offered just THREE free lunches and no refund for three nights without a room that i paid for. Staff at the pool restaurant were SO RUDE! I’ve seen the hotel replying to comments saying they won’t accept comments about their bar/restaurant staff but maybe they should listen to the multiple reviews saying how rude and unaccommodating they are and do something about it… No air con around the hotel which makes it sweltering and the lifts were constantly breaking. We paid for all inclusive but the food was disgusting! Please go somewhere else, this place completely ruined our holiday and should be closed down

The hotel is really big and just about every room can see the sea. The good, really clean and the breakfast is ok, it’s the same every morning, eggs, some sort of sausage, smoked bacon etc. The grounds are clean, except round the pool are. We went out most evenings on the way back we walked through the pool area, there would be rubbish and uncollected bar glasses left about. The pool area is not big for the size of the hotel, there is a large garden area you can use. The bar is expensive… there is a little shop near the hotel entrance, get your beer there. You will struggle to find English tv in your room. The rooms were big enough for two and a full bath. This hotel is a good 40 minute walk away from Kos town, at a slow walk. If you’re not a walker and want to be close to town don’t stay here .

Lovely hotel and friendly staff throughout the hotel. Really nice people. Went with my teenage daughter for October half term. The weather was fab 26 degrees plus most days we were lucky. . The hotel was clean, fresh towels and sheets every day. The half board food was good. There was a range of breakfast cereals, Greek yoghurt, fruits, bread and a selection of processed meats, cheese etc I had a cooked breakfast every morning. Plus fruit. The evening meal catered for everyone. So there would be something there that someone would like. We went on a 3 island tour from Koz harbour and went to also watch the sunset at Zia. The hotel is well located across the street from a shingle beach which was lovely and very picturesque which also had a wheelchair ramp into the sea. There is also a marina opposite with lovely cafes and restaurants. Koz Harbour in the town is walkable approx 20 minute stroll. We walked there and back most nights for two weeks. When it wasn’t hot! It was lovely and breezy at night but not cold. Nearby restaurants to the hotel which were not all open as end of the season but there is a bicycle shop and supermarket next to the hotel. The hotel pool snack bar was excellent. For burgers, salads, gyros, chips, drinks etc and reasonably priced. We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. Very chilled out hotel environment. I had read all bad reviews before going and to be honest I can only say that the hotel was clean, well maintained with very hard working and loyal staff that have been working there for years and n the busier months there is entertainment provided in the evening.

Very impressive hotel, fantastic staff. Very very clean and comfortable, very high standards. Staff lovely and friendly, went the extra mile to help when I thought I had lost my wallet. I would have given 5 stars, but the meals were a little disappointing, buffet service being what it is, the menu’s got to feel a bit “samey”. Hotel is in a lovely position next to the yacht marina, just a 15 minute stroll from the beautiful old historic town of Kos. Regular bus service to town, practically outside the hotel. All in all a lovely hotel, well worthy of the stars.
