Telford Central Hotel

Ein super Hotel ich kann es sehr empfehlen neu, guter Zustand. Das Bett ist super zum Schlafen und das Bett sehr bequem. Jeden Tag wird sauber gemacht und zum Bahnhof ist es ein 1 minuten Spaziergang zum Einkaufen ca 10min Fußmarsch also sehr ideal gelegen. Kann es bedenkenlos empfehlen.

Bei unser Rundreise durch England war das Premier Inn eines der postivien Hotels. Es war modern und komfortabel eingerichtet, das Zimmer hatte eine Klimaanlage, das kontinentale Frühstücksbüffet war sehr gut. Auch das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit (selbst bei Fragen, die nichts mit dem Hotel zu tun hatten). Lediglich die Lage an einem mehrspurigen Kreisverkehr (man kann ihn nicht umfahren) ist für einen Rechtsfahrer etwas deffizil. Da das Premier Inn zu einer Hotelkette gehört, weiß man welcher Standard einen erwartet und das ist manchmal ganz gut so.

Das Premier Inn ist ein sauberes, sehr effizientes und funktionales Hotel. Die Zimmer sind geräumig und auf das wesentliche fokussiert. Das Personal ist freundlich. Es gibt keinen grossartigen Schnickschnack. Für Speisen empfiehlt das Hotel das Beefeater Restaurant neben an.

Ah, Premier Inn – the comforting beacon of purple where weary travellers can usually expect a smooth, snooze-filled stay. Unfortunately, our recent visit to the Premier Inn Telford Central unfolded with all the charm and coordination of a fire drill no one was told about (more on that later!). It all began with our bold decision to pre-pay for the elusive 11am early check-in. What optimism! What faith in humanity! We arrived, hopeful and suitcase-laden, at the promised hour, only to be greeted with the hotel equivalent of "Who sent you?" A staff member informed us that “they shouldn’t allow early check-ins, people don’t check out until 12,” while standing suspiciously close to a box brimming with recently returned key cards. Ah yes, the mythical they — known to sell dreams online and shatter them in person. We loitered like forgotten luggage for an hour before being granted our rooms at high noon, receiving the keys with all the warmth of a begrudging favour. To be fair, we were grateful – we had a wedding to attend and showing up unshowered would have added a whole new subplot. Later that night, just as we drifted off into post-wedding slumber, the fire alarm went off at midnight. Safety first, of course — but the rude awakening ensured the whole family felt like extras from The Walking Dead the next morning. We clung to the hope of a pre-booked breakfast to revive us — until we were informed (after some tense glances) that booking a table is apparently separate from booking the breakfast. Who knew?! Fortunately, a hero among the staff managed to find us a table, possibly out of pity. Pros: • The breakfast? Still a triumph. Sausages, we love you. • Air con in the rooms (a blessing for the erratic heat of a British summer!) • Free parking thanks to our pre-29 May booking skills (we peaked here - you do now have to pay to park!) Cons: • Early check-in is more of a concept than a service. Think of it like unicorns or a stress-free M25. • Communication could use some fine-tuning (maybe a helpful “You’ll need to book a table too for breakfast” email/note in the room?) • Some staff seemed trained in the fine art of making guests feel like nuisances (a rare Premier Inn trait, in our experience) Conclusion: Would we stay at a Premier Inn again? Probably. But paying for early check-in? Never again!!

Night staff were incredibly vague and unhelpful - they also were watching something loud on their phone and were not wearing socks. We had paid for two nights with breakfast included - the night staff asked us when we wanted our breakfast but only reserved it for the first morning - on our second day they had no places for us and I had to argue to get a table - utterly ridiculous considering I had paid for it. Room was small for a family of 4 with the kids beds squeezed next to ours leaving us with only one bed side table.
