Recent Hotel Continental Review: "Vi ble tatt svA¦rt godt imot av hotelles ansatte da vi prA¸vde A¥ sjekke inn fA¸r tiden. Da vi kom tilbake ble kofferter fraktet opp til vA¥r lille suite. Et vakkert og konfertabelt rom, flatskjerm bA¥de ved sittegruppen og ved sengen. Hver dag ble rommet rengjort og i tillegg ble vi tilbudt ekstra rengjA¸ring og pA¥fyll. Dette siste var fint for det var for  eksempel ikke ekstra dyner i selve juniorsuiten. Vinduene kunne A¥pnes og temperaturen reguleres. Hotellet er sentralt plassert i Stortingsgaten rett ved Olav Vs gate slik at det var lett for en barnefamilie A¥ benytte bA¥de tog, trikk og t-bane. Saga kino er rett ved siden av. Vi var ofte pA¥ Aker brygge som bare er minutter gange unna hotellet. Frokostbuffeen var typiske norsk med eggerA¸re, bacon, pA¸lse og sA¥ videre. Et utvalg brA¸d og diverse pA¥legg. Mange forskjellige drikkevarer. Syns personlig at frokosten pA¥ Grand er bedre. Et stort pluss for at de laget kakao, det er det nemlig fA¥ som gjA¸r. Flott utsikt utover Nationaltheatret stasjon fra frokostbordet. Negativt; syns lobbyen var mA¸rk og lite innbydende. Frokosten var litt kjedelig. Savnet poser i sA¸ppelbA¸ttene pA¥ badet (har bleiebarn). Positivt; sA¦rdeles hjelpsom betjening. Vakre rom. En suveren plassering rett ved slottet, Karl Johans gate og Aker brygge."
