Reviews for Hotel Grand Continental Kuala Terengganu

Review 1:Beach is gone due to on-going land reclamation for mega development. Buildings,currently under-construction, may block view of sea in the future. Odd basement car park.

Review 2:Close to town and eateries.

Review 3:1. Awkward access to basement car park 2. Narrow staircase from basement car park to lobby. I had to wait for others to walk down the steps before I could walk up. 3. Outdated interior decor. 4. Squeaky bed was so uncormfortable that I had a bad back after just a few hours. 5. Room was still warm even after one night of aircondition at full blast. 6. The worst part was when the incredibly powerful self closing door of my room (1101) slammed shut. Deeply cutting two of my fingers. According to my doctor, one of my nails will have to be removed as soon as the wound dries up. This is not a joke.

Review 4:1. Free parking

Review 5:The bathroom is definitely equipped with old & worn out equipment (i.e. shower, bath tub, toilet)

Review 6:The breakfast Strategic location (near town, beach etc.)

Review 7:I took a room with xmas dinner.It took me almost an hour to have my dinner and the food taste awfull. The Hotel should consider to hired another Chef.

Review 8:Clean room, nice town and sea view, helpfull frontdesk staff.

Review 9:Toilet bowl must be change already old season.no mineral water provided.breakfast must be improved and more cuisine.i think can give 2-3star that hotel

Review 10:Town loacted

Review 11:Good modern hotel, with all the facilities one would expect, at a competitive price. Ideal for our transit to Redang, and close to public ferry port.

Review 12:Refurbishment is definitely required. Also, no attendant at swimming pool hence no towel provided.

Review 13:The staffs are friendly and location (5 min drive to Chinatown and Shahbandar Jetty).

Review 14:1) The smell of the room 1012 is musty and so strong and we feel like congested in the room. 2) Food during morning breakfast need a lot of improvement.

Review 15:Staff is very friendly and helpful

Review 16:My only complaint is that the hotel was very noisy during all night long, doors were slamming and heavy footsteps. Also, I hope there is more vege dishes provided for the vegetarians in its breakfast menu.

Review 17:The hotel was very clean and the pool was great.

Review 18:If I had to find something to be negative about, I would say that the bathroom (while very functional and clean) could do with re-grouting. The shower/bath looked a bit run down.

Review 19:The staff were lovely, and very happy to make changes upon request. The pool was clean and well-maintained. The breakfast offerings were excellent - plenty of variety and all delicious.

Review 20:(1) The fact that the hotel exaggerates its distance from Pasar Payang. It claims it takes only 5 minutes; not true -45 minutes on foot and 12-15 minutes by taxi,depending on traffic.

Review 21:(1) The rainshower,definitely (2) The friendly and helpful staff. (3) Breakfast - a good spread;leaning more towards a muslim meal Understandably so; it is a Muslim country after all.

Review 22:Staff was making jokes about us while we were standing in front of them. No respect at all. Breakfast was good, but too crowded and the wifi connection is bad, constantly logging out. Location for KT centre not so good.

Review 23:The room was clean and comfortable

Review 24:1)Very poor toilet facilities, please upgrade your toilet 2)breakfast buffet was not good as we hope hotel will serve local food 3) very poor wifi 4) aircond not cold enough

Review 27:The batik shop at the hotel.

Review 28:room very smelly and not well clean Poor facilities provided, warding pool like a water pot on the road..very small Toilet look like out of order and no maintenance

Review 29:Placed at hearth of the kuala Terengganu city centre..

Review 30:1. Limited basement parking, literally on a slope before it comes to a plateau. However outside parking spots are aplenty 2. No elevator service from basement parking. Tenants are advised to leave baggage at hotel lobby before parking

Review 31:1. Good selection of food for breakfast 2. Located in the outskirt of town

Review 32:Wlan - it worked so poorly that we gave up and used the one at the next door " kitchen", a good restaurant by the way.

Review 33:Friendly , clean, customer orientated hotel. Very pleasant surprise. Good value for money.

Review 34:Too small rooms for family and less beds could not make small children sleep with you and breakfast was less variety compare to primula hotel and was cold

Review 35:Cleaning ness

Review 36:Other guests smoked on non-smoking floor/s. Breakfast not much variety. Limited toiletries and pipes/hoses for washing and bathing need to be checked frequently.

Review 37:Arrived quite late at night, a comfortable bed makes the best out of our stay at your hotel, thanks!

Review 38:The hotel is old. Swimming Pool, Facilities and Furniture are all old. The Guest Business Facility has no printer and has only 1 old computer for me to perform check-in to MAS.

Review 39:The fridge needs repair. It is noisy disturb my sleep. The bathroom water pipe giving noisy sound every 5 minutes interval.

Review 40:Room big & spacious. Air-cond is cool.

Review 41:The breakfast very poor variety and lack of taste. The room service charges not worth of money with the taste. Limited parking spaces. The wifi is very slow.

Review 42:Good ambience eventhough old hotel. Helpful and friendly staff.

Review 43:We asked for non-smoking rooms and king size bed, got the two single beds and room smells like there were a smoking fest before we arrived. Terrible cigarettes smells. Yuck!! Toilet and bath tub were yellowish. Don't expect too much on that. Breakfast is not worth your hungry stomach at all. Horrible horrible breakfast. Better to skip it and go to the market to get the nasi kerabu or nasi kandar.

Review 44:The guy that handle our luggage. He is nice and helpful. The location of the hotel from syahbandar jetty which is only 1km. There is a really good chinese restaurant on the alley left to the hotel when you exit. Room is spacious.

Review 45:Poor wifi connection. Breakfast spread quite lavish but quality of food very poor.

Review 46:The bedroom -overall it is quite comfortable but bathroom needs to be upgraded a bit by changing the shower head, add hand & face towels and check for water leakage.

Review 47:Breakfast buffet was mediocre, at best. Food was not topped up regularly by the coffee shop staff. Extremely disappointed and disheartened that Management was unable to ensure only nonsmoking guests are given rooms on the nonsmoking floor. This was the second time I stayed at this hotel, the problem persisted

Review 48:Stayed at refurbished deluxe twin room, nonsmoking floor. Beds were very comfortable. Cleanliness of bathroom commendable, added bonus of rainshower head and fixtures still new

Review 52:Clean and good location with restaurants within reach.

Review 53:-Wifi was really weak -Not enough parking lot

Review 54:-Nice view from our room -Location was great also, for the price we paid we were quite pleased with the service and facilities.

Review 55:1. Stairs to access parking. No lift. Not quite sfe for olderly and parents with children 2. Wifi always unavailable even hotel provide id n password.

Review 56:The food delicious but not much choice.

Review 57:Well, only the gym had no air condition, and windows didn't open, so workout distance happen:D

Review 58:We were about to departure to Syahbandar jetty early in the morning, the jetty is one turn from the hotel - maybe 10 min walk. So location perfect for us. Swimming pool is Great. As well as the breakfast service - as I'm vegetarian, it's very important. In the morning I had diversity of vegetables and fruits, also vegetarian dish specially cooked for me for free! Enjoyable.

Review 59:We reach at the hotel around 9pm,we went to reception for checkin.1st they only give empty case with no key in it,we had to go down to get d key n 2nd,they give us a room who is already have a visitor in it!a.k.a double book.then the room cleaner help us to contact d receptn by walkie talkie n we had been ask to go down to get new room key.i think it is inappropriate.they should be more proactive at least they themself go up n get d key n fix it coz its their mistake.n there r no more customer n had 2receptionist there.when we go down 2of the receptionist not even say sorry,just giggle n said 'its night,n busy day.its normal'.gosh..we had to go up n down 3x n thats the reply.really bad n not professional at all.there is 1customer that we meet in lift said he also had to go twice to receptionist to get key.please improve this.

Review 60:The room was spacious,clean,great bath tub.location in the city easy to find place to eat,near to the beach.the cleaner are super helpful.breakfast good.

Review 61:Breakfast menu should include local food such as " nasi dagang ", " nasi kerabu " and local "kuih-muih" that will be more interesting.

Review 62:Room is big an comfortable

Review 63:Your wifi doesn't work on that time. Your air cond not cold enough even we turned to the lowest .Your tv picture is not clear.blur and the sound of the tv is too bad!

Review 64:Your front desk staffs especially the night shifts are great. They are so helpful and polite.

Review 65:should have more varieties for breakfast. the singer during dinner should be changed.

Review 66:location. near to pasar payang n by the sea side. the hotel is quiet. the rooms are comfy.

Review 67:Nil

Review 68:I requested highest floor via booking.com and they granted it. Furthermore, they allowed me to check-in about 2.5hrs earlier than normal with the room's key ready. Thank you very much ;-) Great staff

Review 69:The water pressure couldn't be controlled from the water tap room 1308. The rest was fine.

Review 70:The room was great thanks to the management for the free room upgrade.

Review 71:The breakfast selection was limited. Front desk staffs were not guests friendly, they can use a bit of smiles and greets, not avoiding eye contact or differentiate guests by their nationality, we were their paying customers after all.

Review 72:The check in and out was smooth. The standard triple room was roomy, the beds were comfy, a/c was in good working condition and everything was clean. I stayed in a standard room, not premium ones where the rooms feature upgraded decor and facilities. Of course the furniture in a standard room are a bit outdated but I don’t mind it at all, I get the comfort that I need and I’m more than satisfied. The hotel is very near Pasar Payang, just a walking distance for those who love to walk like us.

Review 73:- Limited parking space - The hotel needs major refurbishment - Breakfast needs immediate improvement

Review 74:- Good location - Nice view from the room that we stayed in

Review 75:all met my expectations

Review 76:Good, basic accommodations. Location is very good if you're leaving for Redang Island from K.T. Basic room and amenities but comfortable.

Review 77:Reception service - When I checked-in, the reception staff told me that their staff will be sending a fruit basket to my room. I stayed there with my family for 3 days and 2 nights but we didn't receive it at all. I was very disappointed with the reception staff because when I asked him he said it was already been sent to my room. I told him nobody sent it. It was only a fruit basket but you shouldn't have informed me if you do not intend to send one!

Review 78:Housekeeping was prompt.

Review 79:The hotel advertised its steamboat dinner offer at the rooms. However, when we sat for dinner at its restaurant, we were informed that the condiments for the steamboat were insufficient. It was disappointing.

Review 80:Staff friendliness, breakfast buffet was good with a variety of food available.

Review 81:The bedsheets are not clean at all. There's blood stain on it! The aircond is not working well. Heater too. Breakfast was lousy. The food is tasteless and stale looking.

Review 82:Nothing

Review 83:Stayed here twice. Room on one occasion smelled of smoke, bathrooms need attention.

Review 84:Large bedroom, comfortable bed, helpful staff, good breakfast, near China Town.

Review 85:-poor maintenance(in the website mentioned the pool will be ready by early Sept but when we reached there on the 13/9 still under maintenance) then need to find other pool at other hotels (for kids). -hotel staff need to make sure the door room access is working fine. I went to lobby 3 times to change the card. At last, we need to change the room. -break fast not value for money. Tasteless & slow service -air conditioned not functioning- need to call maintenance guy to fix it -hair dryer & room telephone poor -please check the room before release the key to customer

Review 86:-hotel staff is polite & act fast when need their assistance -hotel location is good, secured & convenient. This is the only main reason to stay here

Review 87:The lack of variety at breakfast buffet Hotel should NOT put people who want to smoke on the non-smoking floor. Had to put up with idiots who flouted the rule and smoked in their rooms and yes, because of the centralized air conditioning, I could smell it!!

Review 88:Stayed in one of the newly refurbished twin rooms for one night and glad I chose it. New decor, new carpet, updated bathroom with rain shower head..cleanliness level is quite good

Review 89:Rooms smells like not cleaned for months.faulty sink.broken security lock. The hotel must make sure that rooms are in good condition before given to guest. Small things can make a complain to management but?

Review 90:This hotel is exclusively run and patronised by a certain type of traveller - very local, religiously conservative. This means there is no alcohol served at all, and females must be prepared to dress modestly so as not to offend.

Review 91:This is a comfortable and modern hotel. We were given an upgrade from standard to premium rooms, which we appreciated.

Review 92:The breakfast was okay, but not super exciting...

Review 93:We checked in at 10 pm at night and asked for an extra bed in the room. It was set up immediately, which was very nice. The staff was very efficient and helpful.

Review 94:Hotel dated (but clean). Hotel did not have a location to remove sand after going to the local beach.

Review 95:Staff very eager to help. Breakfast buffet included in reservation and very good variety with eggs to order and Roti canai!!! Room comfortable and clean

Review 96:Should have more choice for breakfast. Omelette should be prepared earlier

Review 97:Comfortable bed- mattress and pillows. Iron and ironing board is provided in each room.

Review 98:The photograph of the Hotel Swimming Pool on the website looked pretty good. When we turned up on the 19th July it had been completely dug up for refurbishment. We only booked the hotel last month, surely we should have been advised that the Hotel was undergoing a refurbishment programme, including all of the external areas?

Review 99:Not much.

Review 100:1. Fridge's noise was too loud and disturb sleeping in the night. 2. Basin water easily flooded when tap water was opened for a short while.

Review 101:1. Breakfast was good. 2. Enough parking lots.

Review 102:the hotel's location on google maps as well as in our guidebook was not accurate. it is further away from the centre and the jetty. the interior is old and in need of a renovation. given the location and the age of the hotel we thought the hotel was too expensive.

Review 103:big rooms make sure you get a non-smoking room
