Premier Inn Warrington

Warrington is known for its industrial heritage, strong transport links and retail scene. Historically, it played an important role in the wire and chemical industries. It's also famous for being home to the Warrington Wolves, one of the top rugby league clubs in the country. In more recent years, Warrington has made a name for itself thanks to its modern shopping centres like Golden Square, and family attractions like Gulliver’s World theme park. 

Yes, especially if you’re looking for a base between Manchester and Liverpool with easy access to both cities. Warrington is a great spot for families, with attractions like Gulliver’s World, Walton Hall and Gardens, and a large retail and leisure area at Time Square. The town centre is walkable, there’s plenty of green space for relaxing strolls, and you’ll also find good spots for food, drinks and shopping. 

Warrington sits almost right in the middle of Liverpool and Manchester, making it really handy for visiting either. In terms of distance, it's slightly closer to Liverpool – about 20 miles away – while Manchester is around 22 miles away. By train, both cities are easily reachable in around 20–30 minutes, depending on the service you take. 

Warrington is technically a large town, one of the biggest towns in the Northwest. It’s grown a lot over the years and feels more like a small city in many ways. It has a busy centre, several suburbs, shopping hubs and plenty of parks and green spaces, all while still being manageable to get around. 

No, Warrington doesn’t have a beach of its own – it’s inland. But if you’re up for a short drive or train trip, you can easily get to beaches along the Northwest coast. Crosby Beach and Formby Beach near Liverpool or Southport are all within an hour’s drive. They're great for a day trip if you're staying in Warrington and want some sea air. 

Definitely. Families can spend a day at Gulliver’s World, a theme park with rides for younger kids. Walton Hall and Gardens is great for picnics, mini golf and a visit to the small animal zoo. Culture lovers can explore the Warrington Museum and Art Gallery or check out live events at the Pyramid Arts Centre. Time Square is a modern development with restaurants, shops and a cinema, making it a good all-weather option too. 

There are plenty of green spots to enjoy a walk. Sankey Valley Park is a peaceful route along the old canal, great for nature spotting. Walton Hall and Gardens is ideal for a stroll with the kids. Lymm Dam, just outside Warrington, is also popular for scenic walks around the lake, and the Trans Pennine Trail runs through the area too, which is perfect for longer walks or cycling. 

There’s a lot to explore nearby. You could visit Chester Zoo, one of the UK’s best-known wildlife parks, or head into the cities of Liverpool or Manchester for shopping, museums, and nightlife. Knowsley Safari Park is not too far either, and the Peak District or Delamere Forest are great if you fancy some time in nature. Lymm village, just a short drive away, is also worth a visit for a pub lunch and a walk around the dam.

In 2020 we launched Premier Inn CleanProtect™, our rigorous, daily cleaning method that’s used throughout our UK & Ireland hotels. Developed in partnership with Diversey, a global leader in cleaning and hygiene products for the healthcare and hospitality industries, our promise seeks to give you extra peace of mind so you can always book and stay with confidence.

Check-in - minimising contact at reception and providing hand sanitiser in most public areas for peace of mind. 

Bed linen and towels - laundering all our linen and towels at over 60°C to thermally disinfect them, so you can enjoy a great night’s sleep. We’ve also placed spare pillows in a zip-up bag, for extra peace of mind.

Equipping our teams - providing our team members with all the equipment and sanitisers they need, as well as always operating in the safest way possible for our teams and guests.

A generous serving of safety - you can relax knowing that enhanced cleaning measures are in place throughout our restaurants. Tables are cleaned between visits and contactless payment is in place too, so you can dine safely and comfortably with us every time.

Clean on request - if you'd like your room cleaned during your stay with us, just let us know at reception and use the handy door hanger on the back of your door by 12pm each day.

Most Premier Inns have specially-adapted rooms allowing easier access for customers with disabilities. If there is no specially-adapted room available at the hotel of your choice, we will be happy to offer you alternative accommodation at a nearby Premier Inn. If you have difficulty walking, but do not need a specially-adapted room, please feel free to request a room near reception on the ground floor for easy access.
