Liskeard hotel

Staff in both the Inn and the pub/restaurant were great. Comfortable bed. This Premier Inn does however seem a little run down and tired. Restaurant was dreadful. Very run down. Food very basic and not very good. It seems there are few evening eateries in Liskeard so think a trick is being missed here to attract ore trade. Staff were generally friendly and good.

Firstly and most importantly, the staff at this hotel are amazing, and really helpful. The hotel itself is rundown, the lift hasn't worked over a month, our room was on the top floor. The restaurant is in a state of managed decline, very poor.

Wasn't a brilliant stay , we wanted a walk in shower but ended up in a disabled room, totally inappropriate. Shower floor had mould growth on it, drain smelt awful when we first ran the shower, generally in need of an upgrade. The bed was uncomfortable, two singles pushed together with no extra topper so had a ridge down the middle, certainly not up to Premier Inn normal high standard. As for the noise level of door slamming, it was dreadful. Kids running around overhead at the weekend until the early hours was almost too much to bear, in fact, we checked out early. All in all, not great.

I have been a customer of Premier Inns for many, many years. We have stayed in Premier Inn, Liskeard several times and up to this date I have been exceptionally pleased with the service given. Indeed, it is one of our favourite Premier Inns I have summarised briefly below the issues I experienced and discussed with Lucie, the hotel manager. initially, I was told that the lift’s was not working and would I like to be relocated to the ground floor. I accepted this. From arrival to what followed was comparable with an episode from Faulty Towers. I was greatly disappointed to find that the hotel was going through some refurbishment and believe you should have lowered our expectations. I. E. Being open about the reduced quality of service expected. I should have been told that the hotel was in the process of refurbishment and to expect a lesser service than we are used to. In Summary my complaints :- 1. Menu disappointing 2. No draft beers 3. No wine glasses initially in the bar. 4. Outside patio area Scruffy with glasses and bottles remaining and collected 5. Chair backs Filthy (see photo) 6. Bathroom has black mould around the bath, skirting board needs painting and a door panel is loose. (See photo) 7. Broadband is not efficient in the bar and restaurant area. 8. TV would not turn off. Had to get Lucie, hotel manager, to unplug it 9. A/C was excessively noisy. I feel we were undersold this booking and should’ve been told to experience some problems. This smacks of dishonesty The only bright side of the booking is the staff who were absolutely fantastic, especially the hotel manager who listened to my grumbles and was in full sympathy. The staff are obviously going through a major change and the lack of service was understandable. Because our sleep was affected by the TV, and noisy air conditioning a full refund is in order. I look forward to your comments. Ron Deamer

We had a lovely breakfast. Perfect poached eggs and decent vegan sausages. Coffee was good too. We only came for the breakfast. Becky was very helpful and friendly. Seated us quickly and breakfast ordered.
