"Always great."

Never had a bad stay at any of the Premier Inn's. Fantastic value for money and clean. Sometimes the rooms can be a bit tired if I'm being really picky. Like lampshades and table surfaces being marked and damaged, but most important to us is cleanliness which is always a good standard.

"Unaddressed Issues"

I arrived at The Premier Inn on Tuesday at 2.15pm to check in and went to my room-on entering the room the spotlight that lit the entrance area had blown -when I got to the bedroom the furniture looked as if it had come out of a charity shop-actually I don't think a charity shop would accept it. On closer inspection the toilet was stained and then the shower gel dispenser was empty. There a very nasty stain on the chair -goodness knows what it was-and the grouting around the shower door was filthy . I went downstairs to speak to a manager and was told no one was available until 7.30pm. I phoned the inbound customer service number and reported my issues and he informed me it would be sent to the hotel for them to reply- I have still not heard back- then to top it all at 2.30am a couple returned to their room swearing and shouting clearly worse for wear-that went on for 30 mins. I agree with some of the other reviews and will not be visiting until a complete refurb has taken place.

"Disappointing at first but got better."

We parked in the NCP car park joined onto the back of the hotel. The lift down to the hotel was out of order so we had to take our cases down several flights of dirty concrete stairs to the rear of the hotel, then through several corridors with dirty carpet and a smell of sewage before we got to Reception. It was difficult to hear what the receptionist said, as there was a constant clicking noise which, when I asked what it was, I was told it was the Air Con. Our room was about five feet away from a blank brick wall and only had 3 dim lights in it - two standard lamps and one bedside light. It was so dark, even in the daylight, that I had to locate my underwear by touch, as I could not see which was which. There was no sink plug in the bathroom, wallpaper was peeling off a wall next to the bed and, when I got into bed the duvet cover felt rough to the touch. We have stayed here before but it was never like this. Standards have fallen a lot. However, there was a good, newly refurbished bathroom, very clean except for underneath the movable glass bath screen. The mattress was comfortable and there were many drawers and a lot of hanging space. The room cleaning was good, as was the Restaurant, where every single item on the menu was there for breakfast and the cooked food was marvellous. Reception staff were good also and answered a query I had re why we were given such a dingy room. Apparently we asked for a twin room and there were only 5 in the hotel, one of which was the one we had. I know this is meant to be a be a budget hotel but I do feel that an independent estates department should be keeping an eye on standards and that a bit more imagination could be employed in dingy rooms (a few more lights?). The hotel has a very good position and we like it a lot, so I hope matters are rectified.

"Hotel deserves a full refurbishment"

Great location, so easy to walk to BIC, with easy parking to rear but needs a full refurbishment before we would return again. Breakfast served during weekdays from 6.30 am which caught us out as we needed to get back to work.

"Good trip spoiled by the behavour of others"

This hotel was chosen because it is central and within easy walking distance to both the theatre and International Centre. It is exactly as you want in a Premier Inn, though it is a bit pricier than you expect for its class. Difficult to complain about the corridor ceiling which fell in because no one can predict when torrential rain is going to find its way through the roof and also difficult to criticise the lift breaking down, because mechanical things do break down and we all have to cope with it. What was shocking though was the sight of able bodied guests insisting on using the one remaining lift when they were perfectly capable of using the stairs. This resulted in those less able having to wait far too long, or in the case of one of our party having to use the stairs and enduring considerable pain as a consequence. When did such thoughtlessness appear in our society because when a person has to endure pain like this it spoils the entire trip for a totally unnecessary reason.

Hotel description Stay in style amongst the art deco delights of Premier Inn Hotel Bournemouth Central. You'll be just a few short steps to the sea front, with a seven-mile stretch of award-winning beaches. You won't be stretched for things to do; with business and leisure facilities all around you. Dig the sounds at a show at the Bournemouth Pavilion. Or dig for fossils along the Jurassic Coast. Go cycling through the New Forest, or go green in the Botanic Gardens. There are pubs, clubs, bars and restaurants aplenty, but if you've not had your fill, mouth-watering food awaits you back at the hotel, not to mention deliciously comfy beds.
