Continental du Sud

Didn't like the bar wasn't open on the Sunday we were there. Staff at front desk was friendly.

The food and drink menus at this hotel are very good, and we found the dining experience to be very good. Some not all of the staff were a bit indifferent at times, so you had to pick who to talk to to place an order etc. We booked a suit and it was not cleaned the next day which we found odd.

A lovely looking hotel with some good points but when you book a suite and the room isn’t cleaned properly then I’d say that it’s very poor . Neither bathroom has been cleaned , towels left where we left them , handbasins not touched along with the shower enclosure . The fruit bowel hadn’t been replenished or cleaned , basically the bed has been made but that’s about it . The bar / restaurant is nice and so are the staff , the food and drinks on offer are ok . In summary , don’t expect luxury …you’ll be disappointed .

A classic hotel in the perfect location.

Nice old elegant hotel . Breakfast particularly good.

From the very first step in this hotel you can feel the spirit of history. Marble stairs, carvings on the ceiling and stained glass windows shows that the Hotel have a really caring host. But the care is not only in the a**osphere, friendly and helpful staff will let you to enjoin your stay carefree. While staying in this hotel there is no need to search for restaurant as they have not only absolutely perfect breakfast but also offers incredibly delicious lunch and dinner in cozy and splendid restaurant. The regular room was spacious and well decorated, all that is need for the nice stay. Also the location is perfect, near train station and the art museum. Will choose this hotel for other trips to Ystad!

We loved traveling through Sweden, then to Denmark, then to Norway. Our inspiration for this trip was Henning Mankell's "Kurt Wallander" books and TV shows. We loved the hotel. We asked for a fan which made our room cooler. The service was wonderful, enjoyed our breakfasts, and the noise of the trains just added to the ambiance. We're used to that.

Really disappointed with overall experience. Room was hot and noisy on main highway and rail line with rail crossing ringing routinely. No air conditioning. Poor restaurant experience with uncomfortable seating and given menus in wrong language. Don’t have laundry done! Extremely expensive and given back totally wrinkled in wadded plastic bags. Terrible! Bad all around.

This is a nice looking, classic hotel very close to the train station and within walking distance of Ystad's city center. Everything, including the sea, is nearby. The room was spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable, the curtains did block the early light in the morning. The bathroom was fine, with good hot water; it has been updated recently. The stairs and the stained glass windows there are just beautiful. Our room was on the back side of the hotel, thus, street noise, something other reviews complain about, was not an issue. We had a good night sleep. There are a couple of small things that can be improved: the comforter and the pillows were a bit worn. I'd replace them. A nice touch: The room comes with a really nice water bottle that can be refilled with filtered water, sparkling or still, on the second floor. If you like the bottle, you can buy it. The breakfast buffet was great, with a lot of choice and quality ingredients, fresh orange juice and excellent coffee and tea. A big plus: the dishes are really nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only down side was the wi-fi. You cannot have more than three devices on the wi-fi. Really strange rule. I tried to check my e-mail while my wife was working on her computer but given that our phones were already connected, I could not check my e-mail. First time we had this problem. In today's world, this shouldn't happen.
