3.5 star ratingIt was an absolute pleasant experience. I was welcomed by the general manager who always ensured i had a good stay. The porters and waiters were very helpful and the restaurant quite good. The views are absolutely fabulous and it was a pleasure to sit out on the patio and look out over the port of Tanger. Yes, its not what it would have been in the 50s but its full of history and great people. Wonderful stay!! Karolina22 October 2010

3.0 star ratingVery welcoming staff. Our room was very old with some mould all over the ceiling. 13 April 2012
5.0 star ratingOur room was a suite, old, but charming. Beautiful views of the bay from the room, front balcony, and breakfast rooms. Friendly staff, excellent location--we took a walking tour of the kasbah and medina right from the hotel entrance. With a guide, we had no problem with hacklers. The main porter/clerk was waiting for us at the entry gate, and introduced us to the guide. The following morning, we walked across the street with our luggage to catch the ferry to Tarrifa--just go left on the main street, and in less than one block you will see it on your right.No elevator. The taxi dropped us off at the base of 95 stairs--the porter saw us, and waited half up. Checked in, and our room was on the second floor, again, no elevator. This time the porter did help, somewhat. Small price to pay, the stairs. But, we weren't expecting it. The T.V. in the room didn't work. But, then, we weren't there to watch T.V. We did catch a glimpse of the Olympics at breakfast.Todd22 May 2012

4.5 star ratingThe Continental is one of those hotels that belongs to another era, and is now being given something of a renovation. In style, the interior is something out of a 1930s movie set for the 1001 Nights - not surprising that film stars of the past used to stay here! We enjoyed our stay in this little piece of history of Tangier. The staff were attentive and, though the hotel's facilities are somewhat limited, it is a good place to stay for a short break in the historic Medina.Ruffled Parrot07 December 2012
4.5 star ratingThe hotel was in a great location directly above the port. The staff were friendly. We stayed in a fun room with antique furniture. The hotel decor in the lobby and restaurant area is amazing with all the tile work.The bathroom was quite outdated. We came up from the port so we had vultures trying to take us on tours the whole walk to the hotel. If you completely ignore them, then they go away but if you interact in any with them they will hound you until you scream at them to go away. After getting to the hotel and leaving for sightseeing we were never bothered again so don't be deterred.02 January 2013
4.5 star ratingExcellent location with access by car and walk into medina. Great views from front rooms - ask for room with a view. Lovely terrace for very nice breakfast with French pastries etc. The Facture Restaurant in the hotel is excellent with great food and very nice ambience.14 March 2013
2.0 star ratingNincsA szálloda nem felelt meg a minimális kívánalmaknak sem. Az interneten lévo fényképek messze nem feleltek meg a valóságosnak. A reggeli förtelmes volt és minimális. Mindenért pénzt akartak az alkalmazottak szerzeni a vendégektol. A hammam csak egy csali a vendégeknek, de híre sincs. alkoholt nem szolgálnak fel, csak angol turistáknak, ha feketén fizet, így valahonnan beszerzik. A szálloda 3 csillagosként van feltüntetve az interneten, a valóságban már nincs kiírva. A szállodába egy arab gettón keresztül vezet az út, ami büdös, koszos és förtelmes. És nem utolsó sorban félelmetes. A szállodába vezeto úton az arabok leszólítanak és hasist árulnak. Nem hogy nem bizalomgerjeszto, inkább kiábrándító. A fenti borzalmak ellenére a hotel rendkívül drága volt.Marietta18 February 2013

4.5 star ratingLas habitaciones estaban limpias y el trato del personal era excelente. El desayuno estaba bastante bien, las camas eran muy cómodas y el hotel en general es precioso.No entiendo por qué sólo se puede tomar un vaso (pequeñísimo) de zumo por persona con el desayuno. También es una pena el estado de deterioro de ciertas zonas comunes del hotel.18 August 2013

4.0 star ratingTop Lage am Rande der Medina mit freiem Blick auf den alten Hafen. Alter, repräsentativer Hotelbau. Trotz z.T. stilloser Modernisierung einiger Bereiche, besonders der Zimmer, in vielen Teilen des Hotels noch alter Charme und wunderschöne maurische Bauelemente vorhanden. Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Sehr freundlicher und professioneller Service, gutes Frühstück. Sauber.Leider liegen einige Bereiche des Hotels Brach, wirken verwaist. Etliche Stilbrüche. Renovierte Zimmer eher recht zweckmäßig und nüchtern.Dorothee Töllner17 October 2013
