The Continental Hotel

Lovely atmosphere and a historic place to boot. Beautiful interior and the room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom and kitchenette were well supplied and the restaurant, Lucile’s was very good as well. Located in the largest continuous town square, the location and surrounding stores were charming.

Nice linens, clean. Quiet. They could make the grab and go continental breakfast a little more hospitable. Ice is from bar. They keep a very minimal staff and don't serve food on Sunday. Bar does not stay open late. I believe they would be accessible by phone. Town square dying, so plan meals out carefully and proactively. It is an attractive place. No housekeeping but you can request new towels each day. On another stay they had really nice pastries. I am not sure what happened to that. Really pretty bar and tiled floors. Town square has loud drivers Friday and Saturday night, but does not go all night.

We enjoyed our stay at The Continental Hotel. We booked the 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom unit. It was newly renovated and very clean. Also very quiet. The staff was friendly and the prices were right. We did not have an opportunity to dine at Lucille's restaurant within the hotel, but it looked very nice. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.

We had an excellent stay. Rooms were clean. Spacious living area and kitchen. Beds were comfortable. Staff is very friendly. Will come back. A++ very affordable. Free parking. Highly recommend it to all my family and friends !! You must stay here ASAP

This hotel was perfect for a family meeting place. The room(s) were large-like an apartment and VERY CLEAN. The AC worked perfectly-it was hot in Centerville. The staff was super-made my bed, picked up used towels, cleaned the dishes in the kitchen…and very pleasant dining waitstaff. The lounge/dining had good selections at great prices. The hotel itself was quiet-however, I was facing the square and there was lots of traffic and noise until midnight-hot rods, kids with very loud music and motorcycles were quite loud.

Charming hotel with rich history in small-town Iowa. We visited the Pella Tulip Festival and as of February, all hotels in Pella were booked. We chose this hotel, which is about an hour south of Pella as this is where my husband's grandparents stayed the night they were married on New Years Eve 1947. The hotel was gorgeous and the architecture was lovely. All of the staff was friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed peeking around and checking out the barber shop, the old phone booth and switch board, and the sweet garden. We ordered a Reeses Cheesecake one evening and ate it in our room. Delightful! My only complaints regarding the hotel- which are not the hotels fault- were that every evening around 6 or 7pm the town kids began making loops around the square which lasted until the police broke it up around 10 or so. This included loud music, yelling, and extra loud exhausts. One night we were woken up by this at 2:30am. Not my idea of a quiet, relaxing weekend. Another complaint is that there was nothing to do. All stores were closed by 4pm on both evenings, and when we went to get ice cream at Ray's at around 7:30, it was closed. (Website stated they were open till 8). Bummer. Hopefully the Chamber of Commerce continues to work to improve the downtown area. Other than that, we loved the hotel!

Nice rooms, friendly staff and charming small town setting make this a little gem on the Iowa/Missouri border. It is a much better alternative to a chain hotel and your money is going to support small down revitalization. We have stayed here several time and each stay has been enjoyable. The restaurant is a little hit or miss as we have had both good and bad meals here, but there are alternates within a block of the hotel.

Jus wanted to make a note about the fabulous stay I had at the hotel. The rooms were spotless. Very impressed with the staff and food served. I would recommend this hotel to all people visiting Centerville.
