A process for the continuous preparation of aniline by hydrogenating nitrobenzene is disclosed which comprises the steps of suspending, in an aniline solvent, a catalyst of palladium or palladium-platinum which is deposited on a lipophilic carbon having an oil absorbency of at least 100, adding a zinc compound and an alkali metal carbonate or a zinc compound and an alkali metal bicarbonate as promotors to the reaction system, and carrying out reaction at a temperature of from 150 to 250.degree. C. substantially in the absence of water while aniline and water formed in said reaction are continuously distilled off as vapor from the reaction product, and the concentration of nitrobenzene in the reaction solution is maintained at 0.01% by weight or less.
