Hotel Continental
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book it if you want the best-rated hotel in our Cremona sample, a big breakfast and an easy walk to the cathedral. Ask for a quiet room, because street-facing rooms can pick up traffic noise.

This is our Luxury pick for Cremona, though the city's offer is small and the hotel has 4 stars rather than 5. It suits travellers who want a reliable base with a restaurant, free parking and a generous breakfast. Families can ask for one of the listed family rooms.
Light sleepers need to be careful. Guests report that some rooms are quiet while those facing the street suffer from traffic noise. If you expect a five-star experience, adjust that expectation: the score is 8.5 out of 10 from 1,089 reviews, good rather than exceptional.
Location and getting around
The address is Piazza Della Libertà 26. San Michele is about 0.2 km away, roughly 3 minutes on foot. Cremona Cathedral and the Torrazzo of Cremona are both about 0.7 km, around 9 minutes.
Those are straight-line estimates that have not been verified, so allow a little extra. Guests describe the historic centre as a short walk and mention public parking spaces nearby. The property also lists free parking. The location score is 8.9.
What guests say
Breakfast is the most praised feature. Guests call the buffet abundant, with a wide range of sweet and savoury items. The listed styles are continental, Italian, American and buffet, and gluten-free options are mentioned, which helps if you have a dietary need.
Location is the second strong point. The weak spot is soundproofing, which depends heavily on which side of the building your room faces.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price was €178 per night, seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov) for 2 adults in one room. That is €356 for both nights, slightly above the sample median of €175. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.
The gap with our other picks is small. DelleArti Design Hotel, our Best Value choice, was €175 a night with a score of 8.4. Hotel Impero, the Budget pick, was €141 with the same 8.4. All three have 4 stars. You pay €3 more than DelleArti for a slightly higher score, a restaurant and a much larger review base.
Why it made our top 3
Only 3 eligible properties were compared in Cremona, so the choice was narrow. Among them, this one shares first place on guest score. Our Luxury slot looks for five-star hotels first and accepts a four-star alternative only if it scores at least 8.5. This hotel meets that bar exactly, and more than a thousand reviews make the score dependable.
Before you book

Room size and renovation condition have not been assessed. Some listings mention that pets may be accepted, but the policy is not confirmed, so ask before travelling with an animal. If you are driving, confirm that free parking is available on your dates.
