My stay at The Continental Boutique Residence was rather disappointing. While I appreciated the quirky decor upon arrival, the lack of basic amenities like breakfast and bar facilities left me frustrated. Overall, it felt overpriced for what was offered.
Rooms

The room was uncomfortably warm with a non-working fan and had a poorly designed bathroom that flooded every time I showered.
Service

I found the service lacking due to no one being at reception when I needed assistance, plus I had to navigate around workmen just to get to my room.
Location

The location was decent, as it was close to the city center and the beach, but that wasn't enough to compensate for my overall experience.
Dining

There were no dining options available during my stay, not even breakfast, which was a huge letdown.
Facilities

The facilities were very limited; there was no bar, the kitchen wasn't operational, and I had to drink tap water out of a mug as there were no glasses provided.

I recently stayed at The Continental Boutique Residence and found the decor to be quirky and beautiful, though the cold temperatures in the rooms were quite uncomfortable. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the location was ideal, being close to the promenade. However, the noise from the reception and the inability to control the heating made for a less than perfect experience.
Rooms

While the room was spacious and beautifully decorated, I found it to be very cold during my stay. Additionally, being on the ground floor meant I could hear everything from the reception area.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at The Continental Boutique Residence. The decor was absolutely quirky and beautiful, creating a lovely atmosphere (I really appreciated the cleanliness too!). However, the lack of a functioning bar and kitchen for breakfast was a significant letdown, especially given the price. Overall, while the location and staff were fantastic, I felt the basic amenities really fell flat for a boutique hotel experience.
Rooms
6.0
The room was spacious and stylish, but I could hear every little sound from the reception area because the walls were so thin (definitely not ideal for peace and quiet!).

Unfortunately, there was no breakfast service available during my stay, which was disappointing given the lack of notice when booking (so I had to find nearby cafes for a meal).

The temperature control in the room was quite poor—I was really cold during my stay. It was frustrating not being able to adjust the heating to my liking (perfectly fine if you enjoy a chill!).

My stay at The Continental Boutique Residence left much to be desired. The proximity to attractions in Salthill and Galway city center was a definite plus, but the overall experience was greatly hindered by several issues. The noise from the busy road and thin walls made it difficult to relax, and I found the room facilities quite lacking.
Rooms
5.0
The room was very warm, lacking air conditioning and with a fan that didn’t work. Noise from the corridor and the street was clearly audible throughout my stay. The ensuite shower created a mess on the floor, and the tiny washbasin was impractical.
Service

I did appreciate the friendly demeanor of the staff. but the lack of personnel at reception was quite noticeable, especially when I encountered issues needing assistance.
Location

The location is excellent, just a short walk down to the promenade. and very close to local attractions in Salthill and Galway city center, making it convenient for exploring.
Dining

There were no dining facilities available during my stay. It was disappointing not to have even a simple breakfast option, as the lack of a bar or dining area was unexpected.

The amenities were minimal with no included toiletries or proper refreshments. I was unhappy with the absence of basic necessities like a wardrobe or drinking water.
