While it is true that this is an older hotel, there are advantages. While there is an indoor pool, I never have used it even though I have stayed on several occasions. I just don't like indoor pools but as I passed it by on my way to my room, everyone there seemed to like it just fine. The rooms... more

Someone told me taht the hotel was shut down on August 31, 2005. I was probably one of the last batch of customers. The parking lot was empty. I believed that the occupancy rate was about 10%. I think that the bank cannot bleed anymore. Rumor said that the Ky State government is going to use the hotel for the... more

That was worst place I ever "almost" stayed. The room smelled, the floor was dirty and I was afraid to even look at the shower. We returned to the front desk for a refund and left! more

It comes down to what you are looking for...a clean bed to sleep in, or a 5-star hotel? Our group of businessmen/golfers from Michigan stay at this hotel every time we visit. The weather is beautiful in the Kentucky springtime and we are there to r e l a x and have a great time! The Continental provides a friendly... more

We had a great time at this hotel. It is not really anything fancy but it had a fun atmosphere. The pool is absolutely awesome and the pictures don't do it justice at all. We had friends from out of town staying there because they just love the place. They have relatives in Lexington and us in near by Georgetown... more

Be careful when using debit or credit cards with this hotel. We stayed there on a prolonged business adventure and a month later after we checked out, we received a $1,000 worth of charges on our debit card. The company said we never checked out. Make sure that you have proof that you checked out upon leaving! more

I saw the olympic sized pool online and thought, oh this looks pretty good. But what they don't show you is any photos of the lobby or rooms. Even if you're just passing for a quick stay like I was I still wouldn't recommend this place. I'd rather pay 3x as much than ever get stuck in this dump again.... more

Been 3 times for a wonderful Dog show. the shoiw is great, but the motel is terrible. Beds and room nasty, no air-conditioners during the spring show. Dirty bathroom, toilet overflowed and they GAVE ME A PLUNGER to fix the problem. Will find another hotel close to the show and stay somewhere else. more

Back when the hotel opened a long time ago..it was one of "the places " to go in Lexington. Over the years the hotel has been left to trash..it no longer holds the class and style that it once did..which is a shame, people that come in from out of town that have stayed there years ago are shocked by... more
