"Good and Bad"

You know what you're going to get with Premier Inn and they seem to tick the boxes more than other budget hotels. Had a mixed experience here, so to summarize, starting with the good: Was met by a very friendly and chatty bubbly receptionist who is an asset to the team and made me feel very welcome. Extra supplies of tea bags, milk, coffee etc in reception to grab as you walk past - I thought this was an excellent idea since I was going to be in the room quite a bit waiting for my husband who was working locally. Bed comfortable as always. We like Premier Inn beds so much we bought one. Room and bathroom spotlessly clean. A power point and hairdryer near a mirror with good lighting - lacking in a lot of hotels. Nice breakfast with the option of having a fried or poached egg cooked to order if you don't like scrambled. Now for the bad: Only one bath towel was provided even though the booking was for two people. I am sure this would have been provided had we asked. Very poor sound proofing between floors. The drinking glasses smelled of some kind of chemical or polish which was so overpowering I had to ditch my drink and wash the glass. No plug socket by the bed. My husband uses a CPAP machine so we are used to bringing an extension cable. There are however USB points by the bed. Wi-fi was particularly slow. The worst bit was dinner. The food was not great. The main came with a salad. All the edges of the lettuce leaves were horribly brown and inedible. I mentioned this to the wait staff and they apologised and offered to comp me a glass of wine and the coleslaw I ordered as a side which I thought was very fair. However when checking my bill the next morning I realised that although these items had been taken off the bill I had been overcharged so I mentioned it at reception on check out, even though it was only £5-6. She agreed I had been overcharged and did her best to refund me but after over 15 minutes as she grappled with the computer system I had to give up waiting and told her to leave it and left in a frustrated manner with no apology or goodbye from the young lady (not the same lady that checked us in). To summarize, we probably would stay here again as it is convenient for my husband's work (a long way from home), and the rooms are clean and comfortable, but would choose to eat dinner elsewhere. Hope this is helpful.

"Great place to stay."

Couple of miles out of town, but as a result plenty of parking and a very reasonable price. Check in was painless, and the room up to usual standard. Had breakfast a couple of times, and an evening meal (make sure you book first - those than just turned up often had a hour or so wait). Food was really good with plenty of veggie and vegan options. All staff were very friendly and helpful.

"Amazing stay"

I could not fault the premier team. My sister, my 4 year old niece, 4 week old niece and I stayed here for 2 nights this past weekend. Every member in the hotel over the weekend were incredible, they couldn't do enough for us. My sister brought pumped Breast Milk with her that needed storing and they kept it for us in a fridge and were always available to grab it for us. I even went down at 4am to get some for baby to eat and they were amazing and even offered me a cup of tea whilst I was down there. I will definitely be returning.

But a special mention must go to Yasmin, she was really nice, very smiley very apologetic when the first night our food took a while but she was easy to talk to and had a laugh and all in all made a great stay an amazing stay. Real credit to the hotel.

Hotel description Would you choose the magic of a working quay, or the hustle and bustle of a large seaside town? Choose both, and stay at the Premier Inn Hotel Poole North. Poole Quay and Bournemouth are both nearby, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds, and all the beauty of the Dorset coastline. Start the morning with a splash and go for a dip or a surf lesson. Or splash out on something special in the boutiques of Bournemouth. See the red squirrels on Brownsea Island, or the Red Arrows if you're here for Bournemouth Air Festival. Speaking of festivals, the Great Dorset Steam Fair is a must for all heritage fans too. Back at the hotel you'll find mouth-watering food at our restaurant, and a lovely comfy bed.
