Everything was taken care of.
Don
The staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant rib-eye was the best I've ever tasted. I love the historical building with modern amenities. Very clean and well maintained.

We stay at the Continental every time we go up that way to visit our Son. The staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are charming, historical, and clean. Makes the visit feel like a mini vacation.
Daniel
The room was very comfortable and the staff were very polite and friendly
John
Room was spaceous and clean. Great bed.

The hotel was great, as was the staff. Perhaps add more clothing hangers in the closet. Sofa was exceptionally comfortable as was the bed. The room was well-appointed. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Gary
Well cared for historic hotel; rooms were well done and it was quiet and restful
Jennifer
The entire place was great! The staff in the hotel and restaurant were fantastic! Highly recommend this place. Beautifully renovated.
Lucia
It is a charming older hotel with a great location on the square, especially if you’re spending more than one night and like to walk around the area and even eat at local restaurants. Their complimentary “self serve” Continental Breakfast was good and interesting as far as selections and there is a full restaurant/bar in the first floor area for later as well.
Our room was clean, pleasant and comfortable with a couch, kitchenette and desk area that were not all jammed together.
On the down side, our bathroom door didn’t close tightly for privacy, our mattress was lumpy and no one told us that our room wouldn’t be tided up and we wouldn’t get clean towels each day. We did ask for clean towels and they were delivered promptly.
While our “down sides” are true and valid we would stay there again.

Kris
Highly recommend, we always enjoy!
Not our first stay here, we have family nearby. We love the convenience of the location. Staff is friendly and helpful. Rooms are super clean and well appointed, the queen suite, room 306, has a nice mini kitchen and perfect for us.
Christopher
Fantastic service. Great rooms and excellent food!!
Bridget
Charming hotel located right on the square. Well staffed. Very friendly. I plan to stay again on my next visit to Centerville.
Heather
2nd Stay - Still impressed!
Our 1st stay was in May 2021 for our wedding night, and we were excited to be back for a friend's wedding to stay again. The rooms are great and clean. The beds are incredibly comfortable. And the staff are very hospitable & respectful. Love it all and will happily come back in the future!
JAMES
fun trip
most of staff wonderful except for the grouchy one who checked us in and didn't have the slightest smile or even a nod when she'd pass. Evening bar tender and waitress was fun and friendly. would stay again.

Jim
Absolutely spotless. Classic architecture. Friendly staff.
Doug
Great accommodations...will repeat next time in town.
LJ
Not as advertised - *Queen suite*. Poorly furnished, poorly lit, rickety Motel 6 style furniture. As I glimpsed the other *Queen suites* on my floor, felt like I'd experienced a true bait and switch. My money and time were poorly spent.
AMANDA
I love staying here for work. Staff is always friendly. The room is always clean. This last time there was a guy yelling in his room late at night, but that is not the hotels fault and it is usually very quiet which is rare for hotels.
Greg
Room was very warm even with air on , bed and pillows uncomfortable
Paul
I had hoped for a more historic ambiance. While the lobby and bar area were charming, our room was quite small with what appeared to be a full-sized bed and modern wood linoleum flooring—I was expecting classic wooden floors. Additionally, our window faced directly into another room, so we had to keep it closed for privacy. Overall, it didn’t meet my expectations.
Eric
Best place to stay in Centerville
Shannon

Wonderful stay. Rooms were clean and organized. Staff was helpful and the restaurant had delicious food. Contiental Breakfast was good and Centerville is wonderful 10/10 would recommend!

Erin
Beautiful rooms, very comfortable with lots of historical pieces. Staff was beyond kind and helpful. Loved staying here!
Jeffrey
Historical clean but some issues
Free parking lot out front.
Very well preserved historical elements but great air conditioning and clean.
Service was hit or miss as there is no dedicated desk position.
Lots of noise from adjoining room due to thin door with large gap beneath.
Would stay again.

Choose here and i doubt youll regret the choice. Bar and restaurant downstairs and food snd drinks both can be brought up to your room. For small towns in Iowa very frw have an original hotel built over 100 years ago is still standing and suprisingly nice.
Service from restaurant can be great or sloe depending on whos working.

Business trip in Centerville
This is a historic hotel in Centerville Iowa. It was very clean, had a desk area, and a small kitchen area. There was ample room to unpack clothes. The wifi worked great! There was a comfortable armchair in the room.
During my stay, there were very few guests in the hotel. The floors squeak every time someone moves, and you can hear them from rooms away. The TV in my room had just been updated to a Roku TV, without any live/local or cable channel offerings, so I was not able to unwind with favorite shows in the evening.
The bathroom sink is a pedestal sink, and some storage on a narrow shelf above the toilet. Getting hair and face care completed in the morning was a bit of a shuffle.
Overall this is a decent hotel.

Susanne
The entire staff was so nice. From the bartender s, the young man who was bussing tables, our waitress, front desk people. Very professional. I would give them a raise The Gardners
Dominique
Good stay but room 303 has a mechanical noise that can disturb some sleepers
Keith
I don’t really leave the hotel so I didn’t rate the area around the hotel. It has everything I need. I always enjoy my stay here.
TERESA
The staff was amazing, rooms clean and welcoming. All rooms have a kitchenette which was nice as we stayed for 5 days during Christmas when most places were closed. The center was lit well for evening walks, Food in hotel restaurant was amazing, breakfast at Soula’s was delicious. Everyone so friendly. We even got upgraded to a King room for the last three days!! We definitely will come back to stay, have to check up on our favorite waitress/hotel admin!!!
Michael A
Very convenient
Janet
The history of the Continental is amazing!!
I didn't specify that I wanted a room with a view, so my room overlooked the alley. That was not a big deal, but the room must have been directly above the kitchen or a kitchen vent, because I always knew what was cooking. Ha. At least all the smells were good.

Great place to stay . Accommodations were exceptional and plenty of things to do within walking distance on the square. We enjoy every stay here and look forward to the next !
Randall
Classic old hotel. Clean and nicely appointed.
Aurea
Nice!
Dawn
Excellent hotel, would stay again
This was such a neat hotel with all the historical information and decor. The size of the room was great with a full kitchen. The town seemed to want tourist and your business with some activities on the square. Lucille's Steakhouse had very good food and the staff was helpful and accommodating. They might think about putting facial tissue in the rooms.
Harold
Could have been a great place but certainly upgrad
Cute hotel with great history, room was great until I went to place luggage on sofa. Sofa was just worn out, the seat cushions had leather pealing on both cushions. Bed was fair, could have used a better mattress, breakfast was poor, bottled OJ, Luke warm coffee, microwave selections only.
Stephen
Beautiful hotel and great rooms, would rate as one of my most favorite places to stay.
Greg
This is a fantastic hotel and I love that it is a historic hotel. It is a very neat hotel with comfortable beds and rooms with all the amenities' you would expect in the larger chain hotels.
This is a very quiet hotel and I highly recommend staying here.
The restaurant is excellent, and the meals are fantastic. I highly recommend eating here!
In closing, this is an excellent place to stay while in the area.

Beautifully restored and decorated
Rick
Great hotel.
This is a very cool hotel. We were so pleasantly surprised at how big the rooms are. Not like newer hotels at all. It was more like an apartment. Usually, we shy away from old hotels because of the lack of soundproofing. This was really quiet.
Amanda
The check-in process was a little long, but the hotel is very clean and very historic and beautiful. The room was spacious and clean. I’d stay again!
Raymond
Access to ice is limited but if you stay in the executive suite you can buy ice for freezer as you have a kitchenette. We loved this place and the activities on the square. We will be staying again
Katelyn
I wish we could have stayed at this hotel longer! It was extremely clean. This building has been beautifully preserved and has an interesting history. Our room was above and beyond. There was plenty of room for four of us, closets, a kitchenette, a very large living room and grand windows. We will definitely be staying here again!
MARY
BEAUTIFUL!! Historic Charm, Modern Conveniences
Stayed here overnight. This is a gorgeous historic property with so much charm. There is a restaurant and bar/lounge on site, a grand staircase and an elevator, and laundry facilities. The hotel itself and the room were very clean. The room was VERY spacious and beautifully decorated. It had a kitchenette with full size fridge, microwave, and coffee pot, dinette and plenty of utensils, plates, mugs, glasses, etc. There were two complimentary bottles of water in the fridge upon arrival. The living room had a comfortable sofa, huge ottoman, nice wall mounted flatscreen tv, work desk and chair. The bathroom was bright, clean, had excellent water pressure, extra toiletries, toilet tissue and a hair dryer. The spacious bedroom was separate from the living area and had the most comfortable bed and linens I’ve ever had in a hotel. And there was an ENORMOUS closet with lighting. I literally could have brought my entire wardrobe including shoes, hats, handbags, and overcoats and still would have had room left over. There are multiple levels of hanging and built in shelving big enough to hold a big plastic tote filled with extra linens. We were very impressed with the way they have kept the charm of yesteryears such as crown molding, tall ceilings, long windows, beautiful woodwork, etc, but have added modern conveniences. We were so impressed with the hotel and quaint town, we’re planning to return and spend some more time here.

Hotel is awesome and staff is super nice! Steak for $32 was terrible. Said I wasn’t pleased and all I got was “thanks for letting me know”

Great hotel. Staff was friendly and the every was clean and spacious. Would love to visit there again.
Lois
Amazingly beautifully restored historic building with a wonderful restaurant and bar.
Angela
Enjoyed the historic hotel’s charm. Very friendly staff. Room was clean and cozy. Parking was easy and it’s very close to walk to breakfast out or dinner out. Only reason we didn’t mark this as the highest smile rating was 1) Sat nt stay was loud w/ traffic around the square as that was the happening place to be apparently (thank you Continental for the earplugs), and 2) we had to ask for a coffee mug (to make 2) as there was only one in there upon checkin. Would stay there again on a weeknight to give it another shot if we are down that way again (3hrs away from home).
Frank
The staff couldn't have been more pleasant or helpful. The room heater wasn't functioning correctly but the staff took care of it immediately I'm impressed!

If you need a place to stay in Centerville, this is it! Beautiful historic building right on the town square.

John J.
Very clean and well maintained property. I will be going back and will recommend.
Gregg
Excellent hotel in small town USA. No need to leave the on site restaurant and bar.
Angie
This is a beautifully renovated 1800's hotel. It was more reasonable and had more amenities than some of the newer hotels we stayed in. Not only was it beautifully decorated, we were treated to free water bottles, a sink, dishes, a microwave. The staff was all very kind. The restaurant served great food and the staff there was also very kind. This was a hotel that my husband and I would definitely return to if we are ever in the area again.
My only issue is that the air freshener was a little strong. It was a plug in one, so had I found it sooner I could have unplugged it for the night. Some people are very allergic to those scented plug ins, and sometimes the scent gives me a very bad headache.

Awesome hotel!
Cute hotel with a different type of set up. Kind of reminded me of starting in an apartment. Very cool, clean, and comforting!

We love this place and stay there often. However, this last time we had two issues without resolution, our TV did not work and they did not get tit working. In addition, the air conditioner is extremely loud in a very small room. The cost of the queen rooms should be lowered to reflect the amount of space. We typically stay in a king room and we’re very surprised how small the queen room was and that is was similar in pricing. Lastly, a suggestion would be to have some type of loyalty program or even just recognition by the staff for guests who stay often.

We had such a nice 2 day stay at the hotel. Our room was modern and comfortable although we were unable to control the fan speed on the AC. TV channels somewhat limited but the decor and comfort of the bed and beautiful walk-in shower overcame any other shortfalls. The lobby bar is beautiful, and the turn of the century feel of the lobby is appealing. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Being on the quaint town square was a plus although, like most rural communities, shopping was pretty limited. We come here to visit family several times a year and would certainly book the Continental again.

The Hotel and bar was super nice.

Nice to see older hotels renovated and usable. Many provide more character and sense of history than a modern hotel chain.
