Beware -Your Room Will Only Be Serviced by Request

Reviewed By Izolbel

On arrival the receptionist said rooms were only serviced if guests were in them for seven nights. We were incredulous and checked this with a second receptionist the following morning. She confirmed this. We then found a card in the room which said rooms would be serviced, but only in request. Apparently this is now Premier Inn policy. We showed the second receptionist the card and she immediately backtracked, claimed there had been a misunderstanding (there hadn’t) and put us on the cleaning list. I am appalled at this. I think it is unreasonable and is part of the hotel service you are paying for. I haven’t noticed that Premier Inn have reduced their room rates to take into account the savings in housekeeping they are making. My daughter stayed in a Holiday Inn at the weekend and her room was automatically serviced every day. I know where I’ll be staying in future

Inter connecting room. Dogs next door.

Reviewed By LsaKingswinford

We will be giving Holiday Inn Express a miss. Second time that we have arrived to find we have been allocated a ground floor room with inter connecting door but this time plus 2 dogs. We have nothing against pets, we have them ourselves but we could clearly hear them. We always travel with earplugs as it happens and we are not allergic to animals. However, many people would suffer greatly. We did request an upper floor but were told none available due to a Cricket Party saying! Also the breakfast was mediocre. On the plus side, the room was clean and in order.

The staff do a great job

Reviewed By DPJP

We use Premier Inns often. We know what to expect and they usually offer good value. We stayed here for three nights at the Platinum Jubilee weekend. It was busy and the staff were under pressure. They could have done without the problem that we presented them with, but they dealt with it well. The 'problem' was not caused by the hotel, but by other guests. We had to go to reception at midnight because of the noise generated by the guests in the room above ours - they had been clumping about like elephants for a couple of hours. The reception staff asked them to stop making the noise (It was 'a hell of a racket' said one of the Premier Inns team) but their polite request made no difference. We waited for an improvement but when there was none, the reception staff offered to move us to a quieter room in the annexe. Even though that meant packing our bags and crossing the car park in the hours of darkness, we accepted gratefully. To add to the problems, my wife had a fall in the shower the next morning and was cut and bruised. The Premier Inn women at reception were sympathetic and showed real concern. A breakfast was refunded and drinks and chocolates were left in our room. We enjoyed our breakfasts. The breakfast staff were very good, too; friendly and helpful and when one hot food item was not available from the self-service buffet, the breakfast cook offered to prepare it and bring it to the table. Despite the team being busy, it was not forgotten - it soon arrived. Full marks to all of them. We were grateful for the way that we were looked after but, to this day, we wonder what on earth were people doing tramping up and down the floor of a first-floor bedroom in a hotel in the middle of the night?

Basic Premier Inn, needs updating

Reviewed By sarahjJ8758RQ

To start with I was pushed to make this review by the lady in charge (blonde with short hair), if you want a review so badly, you need to improve your offering. Hotel is very very basic, probably one of the most in need of an upgrade. I’ve stayed in much nicer premier inns. I felt a bit harassed when checking in, I just wanted to get to my room but was told to make a trip advisor review - premier inn need to focus on delivering a better experience with a nicer environment, than asking for reviews on a run down hotel which happens to be in a good location. Could be so much better.
