Leisure stay January 2020
By the standards of most of the world this hotel is overpriced. By Luanda standards it’s acceptable. The location is good and the hotel is secure. The hotel is showing signs of age, but the staff are friendly, it’s clean and the WiFi works well. The food is average but you can get a taxi to some reasonable restaurants on the Ilha.

Great location, on the water. Pretty basic accommodation, but clean etc. Toilet broke on my first day in and it requires many people coming in and out. I also walked in on another person occupying my assigned room, so I would recommend triple locking it when you are in it. Overall they are trying but you can tell it’s seen better times.

Nice location, friendly & helpful reception staff
Overall the hotel was fine. The only lack was in the quality of the cuisine and the daytime staff of the restaurant were loud in their personal conversations in the eating area.

Near the sea
Rooms facing the sea have nice views. Service and up-keep needs improvement. Food and restaurants are iokay. Good to bargain on the room rates as the city is expensive.

Handy comfortable hotel.
Good overall experience. My original room overlooked a construction site which often worked through the night. When it became a problem the hotel was more than happy to move me.

Great, well located option in Luanda.
This hotel offers excellent value for Luanda. Good location with easy access to downtown and the Ilha from the marginal. The best feature of the hotel is the roof terrace which offers great views and a cooling breeze in the evenings - try some grilled chouriço and a cold Cuca. The hotel staff are also warm and friendly and will go out of their way to help even if they're not the most organised at getting things done- but that's pretty normal :-). The room I stayed in was rear facing so didn't have a great view, but was comfortable enough with a good size bed and we'll fitted bathroom with shower. I will definitely be returning to Continental for my next stay in Luanda.

Reliable Hotel
This is the 5th time I have stayed at this hotel. The staff are always helpful. The room standard is reasonable, and in fact very good for Luanda.

Disliked: Staff & service
Reliable and consistent
It is the guests that make this hotel. The hotel is reasonably priced (for angola), has working internet and is in an area near several of our clients / potential clients. Have stayed in 4 other hotels in Luanda and this is the best. Staff are ok, food is ok, rooms are old but clean (some look to have been redone), bar is good, location is excellent.

Ok hotel if you don't mind the smell of cigarettes
The hotel is standard for it's class. Price is high compared to expectation even for Luanda. One issue that can not be resolved in the hotel is finding a true non smoking room. I changed rooms three times all with heavy cigarette smell.

Great roof top bar. The quality reflects the price...very reasonable for Luanda. Perfectly acceptable hotel, slightly small rooms and simply furnished.

Well located on the Marginal in Luanda
A 3* hotel that was certainly fit for purpose, a little tired but clean and everything worked, including the internet which was the best I have experienced in Luanda to date. Price wise its OK for Angola where everything is overpriced.
