Staff were great, nice breakfast. The only issue we had was how it the room was, it was unbearable. No one slept. Windown opened only a cpuple of inches and a fan was provided but did nothing.
Had a great two night’s at the hotel. Very quiet room on the 3rd floor. Going back in December. It’s great please to chill out on my week off as a live in carer.
Hard to fault it, felt slighty dated in need or a refurb, but I wouldn't say it was a bad stay at all. Was very affordable. Would consider it again if I was in Plymouth.
Great stay and the night porter checked us in super quick after we were delayed and arrived after midnight.

This property was unique in our tour of Britain as the only hotel that demanded a copy our passports. We find this offensive and intrusive. We had already passed through HM immigration and customs to enter the UK from NZ. We had paid for our room. Reception was officious and hostile. I suggest the owners take their investment and put it into prison services, they have no understanding or instinct for hospitality.
I had a lovely stay at the New Continental Hotel in Plymouth. I booked a standard double room with a jetted bathtub, and it exceeded my expectations. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, offering a comfortable and relaxing environment. The jetted tub was a great touch—perfect for unwinding after a long day. Overall, a great experience with friendly staff and good amenities. Would definitely recommend for a comfortable city stay!
The hotel was lovely, the staff were lovely too the only downside was the hotel is on a busy 3 way junction which was noisy, especially with motorbikes revving their engines while waiting for the lights to change!! This was a pain at night, but take earplugs and its fine or if you are deaf like my husband, just take out your hearing aids out!
Otherwise it was a lovely hotel, convenient to town and the Barbacan.
Enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again
