Actually, I can't be bothered giving feedback, as I do not have intention of going back there again. But since your organization send me this feedback by email, I guess here are some expression of my unhappiness. This is by far, the worst hotel in a city I've ever been. My feedback as follow: 1. The air-con in the room is non-adjustable, and are too cold for comfort, 2. the room and the carpet in the room is dirty and smelly, 3. Bath-tub is leaking and smelly and definitely a sign of poor maintenance, 4. Very poor quality breakfast given, and too small sitting to accomodate all the guest in the hotel, given the time we were there was a "super-peak season." 5. Hotel staff at the car-park was outright rude in his tone in asking me to shift my car eventhough it was a designated parking-lot for hotel-guest. During my time of booking (one-week in advanced), no hotel was available for booking in this vicinity due to a super-peak (17-06 to 19-06) season. When I was booking the hotel via on-line, I read a review that says someone actually found bed-bugs and had taken a picture of bed-bugs in one of the guest room and post it in their review, but because I needed badly to be in Melaka for a family occasion and since it's been long-overdue, I decided to put up with Grand Continental eventhough the review was negative. Nothing! Even the small swimming pool was too dirty to look at, and nothing pleasant I can say about this old hotel. The thing is, my friends did warn me, but I told them I'm only going to be staying 2- overnights, so I can sleep with that, and since my family don't really use any hotel facilities.

Location was ideal to move around. Minimal cost on travel. I booked 4 rooms and all four rooms were infected with bed bugs!! Countless of them. It was really a horrifying experience for my friends and I. It certainly wasnt a pleasant nor restful night for many of us. I sincerely and ernestly implore the management to look into this matter asap. We were terribly disappointed!!! Morever the counter staff was not able to handle the guests queries. She was trying to multi-task, sad to say it didnt work. Since it was a long weekend I purpose the hotel management would have anticipated a big number of guest checking in and out. I believe the coutner staff could have handle the guests qeuries in a more professional manner,

The room was small and filthy. Breakfast was totally inadequate, and though advertised as "from 06:00" when I got there at 08:15 the lady supposed to prepare eggs (the only edible item for non-east guests) had not yet arrived.

Terribly run down, in dilipidated state! Need a major renovation. Bath room is in terrible state and not functioning well. Need to change my room. If you try to press on each a of the buttons on the phone in the room for help, no one will ever pick up and answer your calls. You just have to walk to hotel reception and ask for help.

Its location is strategic, in the middle of Malacca town. Its services are very poor. There was no staff standby at the swimming pool (no towels were given). The room was also not ready when I checked in (no pillowcase installed).

Mr Adrian, the hotel receptionist was very polite, helpful and he is very professional in his work. Mr Adrian gave us a warm welcome upon our check in and throughout our stay, he even share with us the best food in Malacca town, where to visit the places of interest. We seriously think he is very good at his job and he should be rewarded for the good services rendered to the hotel customers. We were very disappointed with the hotel room. There was a cigarette butt found on the carpet, the toilet bowl was not washed and has dirty stains left by earlier hotel guests until we complained on the 2nd day to room service. The bed sheet stinks and it was dirty, it looks like it was not been changed from the previous hotel guests stay. The bed sheet was crumpled & it looks like it has been used and slept on before by other guests. There were couple of mug stains, at least 6~7 of it on the bedside table. There were also stains on bathtub. In conclusion, the room service was terrible and it seriously need to be improved and upgraded. On our 2nd & 3rd day of our stay (9 & 10th Feb '12), there was no hot water in the hotel. Breakfast was lousy and overall the hotel staff were not friendly and my family and I will not go back to the hotel again.

The hotel was extremely run down. The standard room wall, mattress were dirty with smell. We decided to upgarde to premier room which cost us double. However the so called premier room only provide one towel, limited Astro channel for viewing and without jug kettle. Is was definately a dissapointment. I will never stay at this hotel again.

The room I booked is for 4 pax but when I entered into the room, I found out there are only 2 towels in the bathroom instead of suppose to be 4. The air-cond is too cool until we can't sleep nicely. There is no remote control to control it.

Location at town areas 1. Staff knowledge was poor and no communication on the hotel information such as room rate. Called 3 times also different rate quoted! 2. Check-in to a dirty room with tissue box without tissue, pillow with BED BUG which make my whole bodies itchy and now with scar of the bite! Request to meet with Duty manager and none visited till the day check-out when I requested again only the Room Division Manager came out! This call hotel service??? 3. Check-in to a NO AIR-COND Room!, 12midnight, a security man came to check on the air-cond together with another security women. Cannot be repair, asked if we are alright to make room change, we said OK. waited and waited already 3 in the morning were my 2 kids already slept.. called to reception, then only they offer me room change. much appreciate room changed at 3am!!! and no dm to meet and apologies on the next day! 4. After room changed, it was an upgraded room to executive floor which we really unfortunate the room bathroom was stuck and flooded which we have to delay our activities while awaiting your maintenance to repair as we need to shower on the next day. 5. While we at Deluxe Room, there were 2 mineral bottled in our room. When we been upgraded to Executive, there were NO MINERAL WATER. Called to reception, mentioned that mineral water are not entitled! What is this??? higher floor don't have mineral water while the cheapest floor does?? Does this make sense?? 6. I TOTALLY NOT HAPPY WITH GRAND CONTINENTAL HOTEL MELAKA, AND GRAND CONTINENTAL WAS A INTERNATIONAL CHAIN HOTEL! THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A HOTEL SERVICE INDUSTRIES! I DO HOPE TO GET A RETURN ANSWER FROM THE MANAGEMENT.
