"Two night stay"

Reserved a couple of rooms as attending wedding in Lewes. Hotel was consistent with other Premier Inns and was well located in town centre. Rooms were clean, staff helpful and polite. Godfrey the chef cooked some nice poached eggs! We enjoyed good nights sleep both nights. If you need a hotel in Lewes, this is good value and pleasant.

"Room ok, food awful"

Away on business for 5 days and was put up in the Premier Inn Lewes, very handy for work as centralised location and only a 5 minute walk from the train station. The only room that was available for me was an easy access room (albeit located on the top floor, but there are 2 lifts). Although I don't require an easy access room (was booked through my company) I cannot fault it for space and easy manoeuvrability. General cleanliness was ok although the bedsheets weren't changed for the duration of my stay and after 4 days the toenail clippings that I discovered on my second night were eventually hoovered up (i would like to say they weren't mine as i had only just cut mine). Bed was very comfy and nice to have a choice between soft or firm pillows. Bathroom had a bath with an over the bath shower but the pressure was awful, turned the taps as far as they could go but it was no more tahn a very soft and gentle flow, no force behind it at all. Now to the food. The first night I stayed I decided to eat out and I wish I could have afforded to eat out every night. On the 2nd night I decided tomhave the bacon cheese burger and skin on fries. It wasn't busy that night, about 6:30pm so I thought that it would be quite fast service as 3 out of the 5 guests (myself included) had already been served their food. I saw the kitchen and couldn't believe what I saw. I saw my burger being served up at the pass but then it sat their for about another 5 minutes as the fries were still in the oven. When the fries were on the plate I then saw it being served to the wrong person as I overheard him say he had ordered the sweet potato fries with his burger. Back went the plate to the kitchen where the fries were removed, the plate (still with the burger on) lifted up and then blown by the cook to clear off what I can only imagine were bun crumbs. The server went over to the cook to say she still needed a burger with normal fries so out of the oven come more fries, and the meal served to me. I am annoyed with myself for not saying anything at the time and requesting a new meal but I was so hungry I didn't want to wait but am wishing I did. The bun was so dry it was flaking on top, the burger was dry and over cooked, the bacon was very rubbery and the fries were warm and limp. The 3rd night I went down to be told the restaurant was closed until 6:30pm as only one oven was working in the kitchen and they were waiting for it to heat up. So I waited and other people started to turn up and were shown into the restaurant and offered drinks. Meanwhile I am still sitting in the bar area a) waiting to see if I would be offered a drink like the other people waiting had been and b) waiting to be told I could go through to the restaurant if I wanted as it was now open. I waited about 20 minutes and not a single person asked a thing so I gave up and went to the local Tesco and ate in my room like I did on the 4th night. On the 5th night I thought I would give the restaurant another go but I shouldn't have done. I chose the chicken and bacon topped with cheese and a bbq sauce. It came out quite quickly but the chicken was dry the bacon was rubbery (again) not a huge amount of bbq sauce and a wet salad. So in a nutshell, great location, lovely beds but avoid the restaurant as both times I ate there I had a dodgy stomach the following day. Make the most of the lovely local pubs and restaurants that are in Lewes instead.

"Lovely for short breaks Hypnos bed is firm"

My husband and I stayed here to visit family members. Driving here.... put in post code for Court Road Public Car Park because the post code for Lewes Premier Inn didn't work on the Sat Nav. You don't have to pay for the car park if you arrive after 5pm, then at 9am the next day you need to get a ticket which allows you to stay up to 2 hours. The staff are all very friendly, some more informative than others. Breakfast was excellent and vegetarian sausages available. Shops and Restaurants all 5 mins walk. Air conditioning in the room was superb as I like to sleep in a cool room My only issue was the Hypnos bed which was a firm mattress with attached topper. It was too hard for me as I prefer a medium firmness. The manager arranged for extra duvet and pillows so I slept on the single bed in the room and my husband slept on the Hypnos. The manager advised me that most customers prefer a firm bed. The cleaning staff were excellent and our room was kept clean to a high standard I recommend staying at this hotel for short stays.

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.
