"Best Premier Inn I have stayed in"

Lewes is a lovely town and this hotel is placed very centrally. We've stayed in a number of Premier Inns and we like them - you know what you are going to get. I say this is the best because of the people at check in and at breakfast. Breakfast was cooked fresh to order and was really excellent. We have booked to go back.

"Working away"

My colleague and I stayed at Premier Inn Lewes for 5 nights last week on a business trip. We found the hotel very clean and well managed. Nice rooms too. We stayed on a breakfast and evening meal basis.There was a good selection to choose from on the menu and the food was good. The staff were really helpful and welcoming. Nothing was too much for them. A big thankyou to all the staff and particularly to Elena, Adriana and Reagan. They were very friendly and made our stay memorable by always welcoming us with a smile and a hello and were genuinely interested in how our stay was going. They are a credit to Premier Inn. We will definitely book again next time we visit the area.

"Disappointing"

Stayed 1 night at this hotel. First complaint would be the parking (council car park) at the back of the hotel, what a pain! There were plenty of spaces but it is a max 2 hour stay between 9-5. I arrived around 4 so I paid £1.80 for 2 hrs this gave me 4-5 then 9-10am the following morning! Check out is 12noon, however if I wanted to stay until past my 10am parking time I would have had to move my car to another car park so obviously I just left! guess the hotel is happy as it makes ppl check out early! Next issue was the tv in the room - it had no signal, I mentioned it to the staff who then went in the room to check the Ariel but it didn’t resolve the problem. I was offered a room change but had already settled and it was just one night so didn’t bother. Breakfast in this hotel was really tasty although I didn’t like the way it is Sold as ‘unlimited’ however your order is taken at the table and you are asked how many of each item you want!! In my opinion people who want a huge breakfast may be alittle embarrassed to ask. I think unlimited should be buffet style readily available, hot and fresh for anyone who might want to have seconds!?? The staff in this hotel were very friendly, well presented and the hotel was very clean.

"Below average for a Premier Inn"

I stayed here alone for 4 nights whilst attending a training course. Firstly, the room. Clean and spacious with everything you'd expect from a Premier Inn. The bed was comfortable and there were spare pillows. The bathroom was clean and the towels were changed when I left them in the bath as instructed. The air con was good, warming or cooling the room as i needed. Secondly, the staff. Very welcoming and friendly. Always happy to help and with a smile on their faces. Lastly, the food. Here's where we go wrong. As I was travelling for work I had the bed and breakfast but also the evening meal package. I can't complain about the breakfasts. The hot option is served buffet style and was very good. There is also a large selection of cereals, things to toast (bread, crumpets etc), and pastries. The coffee out of a machine but still good. However, the evening meal was a disappointment. The meals aren't 'cooked' they're warmed up in either a steamer or a microwave. I saw both rice and curry being emptied out of bags. Whilst it's by no means the worst food I've ever had it was just ok. The real problem is that while the restaurant seats between 30-40 people they don't seem to be able to manage more than 4 at a time. The staff also have to split their time between the restaurant and the hotel reception. I think a little investment in better kitchen equipment and staff that are wholly dedicated to running it would be a big improvement. I wouldn't say don't stay here and I wouldn't even say don't eat here, but just be aware of the limitations of the restaurant. On the whole a well situated little hotel with great staff.

"Excellent"

Always get a good night's sleep at Premier Inn. Staff at Lewes very friendly and helpful. Great cooked and cold breakfast. Easy walk from train station. Well placed for looking round the town. No complaints at all.

Hotel description Premier Inn Lewes Town Centre is in the middle of the tranquil town of Lewes, East Sussex. Surrounded by rolling countryside and white chalk cliffs, it's a picturesque hiking pit-stop. While you're in town, head to nearby Firle Beacon for a bird's eye view of the South Downs, explore the ruins of 1000 year old Lewes Castle or sample traditional cask ale at the historic Harvey's Brewery. Plus, if you visit around bonfire night, you're in for a treat - Lewes locals celebrate in style, and it's the biggest 5th November event in the world. When it's time for a bite to eat, take your pick from the delicious menu at our in-house Thyme restaurant and then drift off for a great night's sleep in your stylish bedroom with toasty duvet and ultra-comfy kingsize Hypnos bed.
