Pros:

The front desk staff were lovely and the bed was comfy

Cons:

We were given a key to the wrong room and accidentally walked in on someone in their room as we were told it was ours. The receptionist for the pool was very unfriendly, and there was a poop in the pool.

Over-priced, overly hot
Pros:

A superb bed mattress.
Staff very professional, friendly.

Cons:

In a heatwave all rooms should have all rooms air condition actively on. The hotel has a particularly complex system difficult to manage consequently the room was excessively hot on entering and got hotter throughout the night. This made it impossible to sleep and made me ill with heat, difficulty breathing, affected my asthma, lack of sleep. This is serious in a heatwave the building was overly hot.

Awful, did not stay.
Pros:

Nothing… staff nice on reception.

Cons:

Awful, room not cleaned, both of them, both toilets not flushed so you can imagine what was in there, pee on toilet seat. Went straight back down and received a refund and moved to another hotel, did not even stay there, terrible. Only good thing was the staff on reception were nice.

An aircon room, comfy bed and swimming pool - ideal in a heatwave and excellent value at just £92!
Pros:

In a heatwave, the ideal hotel will have air conditioned rooms and a swimming pool to relax and cool off. To provide this for £92 in a location within easy reach of Heathrow and reasonably easy reach of central London is very good value.

Cons:

The control on the air conditioning did not allow for a temperature below what the control said was 16C. I wanted something cooler than what I experienced. Given that 16C is fully five degrees below 'room temperature', you would expect 16C to be low enough, so perhaps the reading was not accurate but I think the default range of settings available should be wider. With the swimming pool, it is part of a range of facilities attached to Gold's Gym which are superb overall, but the chlorine levels in the pool were higher than I have experienced for many years, and that had a negative impact on my breathing while swimming.

Hotel Nightmares!
Cons:

DON'T STAY AT THIS HOTEL!

We drove nearly three hours for our 2:00 pm check-in, only to be told our booking had been cancelled because the air conditioning wasn't working. An email had been sent at 11:50 am—far too late, as we were already on the road.

The staff showed little empathy and simply told us to contact Booking.com. After seeing the hotel, I think we dodged a bullet. The reception smelled unpleasant, the public toilets had tiles hanging off the walls, and the overall condition was nowhere near the four-star standard advertised. The photos on Booking.com did not reflect reality.

Thankfully, we found a room at the Crown Hotel in Chertsey, where the staff were fantastic and even upgraded us.

Booking.com resolved the issue well, but based on my experience I would never stay at the Continental Hotel and would not recommend it to anyone.
