Not fancy, certainly not new BUT for a person who wants a clean sleepable room ( and bed), a central location, hot water, and great view of the harbor it is perfect. A very old hotel, in the middle of renovations in some rooms, it does need it since it was built in the 1800s. The bathrooms are remodeled and... More

Indeed, the Continental Hotel is nicely situated. Overlooking a bay and right at the edge of the city's centre, very close to where it all happens in Tanger. Everything can be done by foot, which is a big plus. It's quality however is rather poor. The very friendly hosts can't disguise that, to my regret. The rooms smell (maybe it's... More

You've read about in the guide books and there it is, huge and prominent on the outer banks of the medina. It's a good landing spot for you in Tangier or exit. Prices are fair for what you get and it can be worth looking at your room first and asking about others — bathroom vary greatly and if you... More

I want to be sure to say nice things about this hotel, so I will begin by mentioning the amazing breakfast location, on a sun drenched porch with lovely ancient tile work overlooking the harbor. The waiters were polite and attentive, and the pastries hearty. The coffee was the usual watery beige event one expects in much of Morocco, but... More

This Hotel is not what it looks like on booking.com or other sites. These foto's must be 20 years old and the result is a misleading representation. If you are looking for a "cheap dump" close to the ferry or medina... it works, other than that please stay away! More

I came here with my friend (we're both 20 year old girls who don't speak a word of arabic). This hotel was a godsend! We had a clean room, a comfortable bed, the friendliest staff (Jimmy is hilarious and was incredibly welcoming/wise) and the best view I've ever seen from a hotel. You can see the Bay and it's gorgeous.... More

It wasn't as bad as I expected after reading some reviews on here about it. Our room was spacious and clean, with a flat screen tv and en suite. The balcony rooms were full, so we didn't get a balcony or a view. Hotel is very atmosphere free and the only reason to stay here would be if you are... More

Hotel Continental, Tangier hasn't changed much since 1862, just deteriorated gently. It’s just my kind of place - comparable with the Baron, Aleppo, the Imperial, Jerusalem and the grander Pera Palace, Constantinople before it was tarted up. And a snip. Thirty something euros a night. Unfortunately I discovered there was no hot water for some reason to do with lack... More

I have stayed at the Continental a couple of times, both enjoyable. The interiors have great charm, down at heel Agatha Christie ambience. The hotel faces the ferry terminal and is at the entrance to the grubby old Medina. I would not stay for more than a night, or two at a push. Ask for a room with a balcony... More
