Grand Hotel Continental

This is a shabby, old hotel with chances of having asbestos. The staff will turn off electricity prior to departure. Moreover, the rooms are over heated and controls don't work. They say it has wifi but that's a complete scam.

An older hotel,beachfront with a massive pool. A well kept property,comfortable bed and an expansive included continental breakfast. Beats all competing hotels in nearby Pisa.

Most deceiving hotels.com post ever. I booked this "resort" as a break from our small town tour of Tuscany. Was looking forward to relaxing by the pool and letting the kids play. However when we arrived we were shocked by the hotels run down condition. The pool was closed and there was no kids club like advertised. There was literally nothing for the kids to do at the hotel. We came during all saints resese (first week of November) and the entire place seemed shut down. I like to think the hotel is great during the travel season, but I don't think that is the case. It was really dated and just run down. We didn't get to use the beach because we were there while it was raining. I didn't even see the beach so I cannot comment on the condition. Positives were the cleanliness of the rooms and the lobby/ reception area. The breakfast was also really good. I would certainly reccomend going a little further away from Pisa to find a nicer beach and probably more for the price.

Good hotel with a huge pool and garden. Great location right next to the beach and town center. Staff was extremely friendly and professional. Rooms are a bit dated and as other reviews mentioned before, the shower is absolutely tiny!

We have stayed in this hotel 4 times. Our recent trip last week was a real let down. We were checked in to room 270...a tiny room, that was not very clean with a shower that can only be described as so small it was almost unusable. I tried to speak to the manager about this, each time we went to reception we were told the manager was in a meeting. The following evening we managed to be moved by a member of the hotel reception staff. Breakfast on the first morning was fine on the remaining two days it was a farce. We sat outside, it was almost like there were no staff around to help, they kept running out of things cutlery, plates, water and various items of food. It was a long wait before things were sorted. Tables were not cleared and were quite messy. Overall this hotel does not seem to represent the 4 stars it claims, it is faded and dated and we had a very poor experience on this trip. Although the pool area remains excellent.
