"Great vakue"

Room was clean, bed so comfy! Lots of hot water and good location for our purpose. Good parking and room felt very secure and no noise from adjacent bedroooms. The only flaw I could see is there is no lift which you are warned about and wasn't relevant.

"1 night business stay"

Very convenient restaurant nearby. Only disappointment was a bit of a saggy mattress. Excellent food. Excellent service, helpful staff. Lots of hot water, good shower. Terrible phone reception - couldn’t receive or make calls which made things difficult when phoned for work.

"Weekly visit"

I visit this premier inn on a weekly basis for work, the staff are great and the rooms are lovely and clean. The reason for choosing this hotel is because it is close to my work, it is nice to sit out in the summer and a quick drive to the harbour.

"Good stay"

Good clean room, nice friendly staff, only stayed one night but would stay again, breakfast good, plenty of choice. Plenty of parking The cooked breakfast was cooked for us, and we could have what we wanted from the menu, and cooked to our request, (like poached, fried, or scrambled eggs), and the choice for continental was brilliant, also the tea coffee and juices The shower in the room was excellent.

"New Year stay Dec 2019"

Four of us stayed here in two separate rooms. One room absolutely fine, the other one had a bad smell which was semi addressed when reported, ie cleaning staff sent in to do a further clean which helped but didn't completely rectify whatever the issue was. Told they have engineers coming in to check the drains so they obviously knew the room wasn't right and should not have been let out. We have stayed here on many occasion and haven't really had too much to complain about before but this time it wasn't great. The breakfast was really poor and not good value for money. Continental breakfast was almost non existent and on the second and third day of our stay the usual buffet was replaced with cook to order which although ok, was limited in what you could eat as you would at a buffet. Also the coffee machine touch and go if you would get a black Americano or something else resembling coffee with a splash of milk! Staff weren't 100% either this time and we felt extremely sorry to witness a family walk in today (New Years Day) for breakfast only to be turned away as they had not booked. Would have understood if they restaurant was busy but there were 3 tables in use, if that. Talk about Happy New Year cheer and all that, the manager totally excelled himself there! And talking of which, we found ourselves having to make last minute NYE arranges due to a change of plan, thought we'd have a nice meal at the joining restaurant followed by a night of seeing in the New Year in the pub only to be told the would be closing at 9pm. Was totally flabbergasted at this and wondered what has happened to this pub and hotel to become so flipping miserable! Now I appreciate this review is for the hotel, but travellers need to be aware should they also find themselves in a similar situation next NYE! However, despite what other reviews say, it is possible to walk into Whitehaven even if you are just semi fit, only 35 minutes, just make sure you are wrapped up and wearing sensible shoes. Had a beautiful chinese meal in the end then a walk round Whitehaven on NYE so not a bad end to the year, but sadly not made better by our stay at this hotel.

Hotel description Make yourself at home at Premier Inn Hotel Whitehaven, just outside this pretty Georgian town on the Cumbrian coast. You'll be well placed for business and leisure attractions near Whitehaven, or exploring the postcard-perfect scenery around Workington and the Lake District. Head for the high fells of the Lake District. Pack a picnic and explore miles of sandy beaches on the Solway coast. Or stay closer to home and explore Whitehaven's Georgian streets and charming Marina. Then plot a course for a hearty meal in our restaurant and a great night's sleep in your extra-comfy bed.
