Room clean, bathroom clean (still unpleasant smell due to plumbing), parking place hardly available, very crowd breakfast (but this is usually during Romanian children vacations...) the worst experience were with restaurant where 2 waiters passed twice the room, we looks one to each others and they simply moved away ... (3 tables occupied indoor including ours and maybe another 3 outdoor, so no, there was not crowded at all!) After 10+ min we moved just over the street where we discovered Lento Cafe & Bistro - great place, perfect welcoming, great food!

Good hotel, nice area, yet due to some local festival the main entramce (whole street) was blocked and I found backside parking entrance not so easy. Is great to have a walkable street but the directions to the backside entrance could be better signalized. Fortunatelly, the event stopped at 20.00 so the night was quiet 😁

This property is clean, the staff is great and the food they serve during breakfast and room service is very good.
This property has been modernized in the common areas.
However, the furniture in the suite we rented was old and shows excessive use. The suite we rented, had uncomfortable, discolored and dated couch and armchairs.
Should the furniture be updated, we would give this hotel a 5 star.

The room was comfortable, the breakfast was good, and the location was great. However, the bathroom was very unpleasant. There was a persistent urine smell that permeated the bathroom and also the bedroom. The shower drain was slow and you had to shower with water up to your ankles. Bathrooms need to be cleaned better.

What a hotel should be like

I was very happy to return to Continental Forum in October 2021, even for a night. This is a hotel which bucked the trend and remained wonderful, while others changed for the worse.

First - the same friendly, efficient staff is still there. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the bathrooms modern, with shower with a movable head as well as rain.

Second - no false savings. They still offer individual toiletries and travel kits, packaged in bottles and not stuck to the wall. I love them for it. Cleaning service is daily.

Third - a wonderful kitchen. For a hearty breakfast in a spacious room, as well as for room service. And a full minibar, plus tea and coffee maker and supplies in the room.

These factors, together with its location in the literal center of Arad, make it my repeated choice over the years. I will be back!

S&A: The hotel is fully wheelchair-accessible and all rooms have double locks with a blocker from the inside.

Confirms its high quality and practicality

Once again, Continental Hotel Arad proves both friendly, and well kept, clean and most importantly a perfect place to crash after a very hard day. I was once again impressed by the friendliness of the staff, their help in extending the stay, as well as a very good kitchen. The room is spacious, the view, particularly at night is quite pretty, and it even has a true open balcony. The bath is well fitted and there is enough space to move around. All in all, it confirms my choice for it.

Not a 4 star hotel...

This in fact is a 3 star hotel. From room settings, amenities (or lack of them) to the overall feeling and staff reaction. Not bad but not 4 star...
Bathroom could be a lot cleaner. Receptionist during check out threw me off that much that I forgot to take a receipt.. (my fault, but I'm just saying that stay there wasn't comfortable)
I don't see myself returning there...
Only good thing about this hotel is its location.

Don't stay there for business but for pleasure because the internet connection is so poor it'll cause you sleepless nights waiting for emails to go through etc! The rooms are purpuse build and quiet, what is great but have some minuses too: not even 1 bottle of free water included, doors to balcony can only be opened completely and not be tilted open so you may not want to do that over night if you need fresh air, and single beds a tiny (go for double!).
