"Good stay"

Bed not as comfortable as we would like but ok. We would like to have been given the choice of ground or first floor, as we have trouble with stairs and luggage. Clean room. TV could not be turned up over 15 level, could have done with a couple more levels up to 17-18.

"Generally a good experience"

I like Premier Inn as you usually get the same facilities and services wherever you go. This one had a good location for my trip and being just off the A12, was convenient for the main routes. I did not find it too noisy, even though it was summer and I left the window open. The staff are very helpful and friendly and it was a good experience. Car Parking was a bit tight. The next door pub/restaurant served good quality food but did not cope too well when really busy, and being on the meal deal offer, I felt a bit of a nuisance at times, but I could be over sensitive!

"clean, friendly, convenient"

Good sized double room with deep bath. Comfortable room apart from no air conditioning. Tea and coffee making facilities, plenty of mirrors for dressing. Good sized TV. Convenient location. Friendly staff. Good breakfast selection. Perfect for our overnight stay.

"Another excellent weekend at Premier Inn"

This was our first visit to Colchester and this Premier Inn. It was the hottest weekend of the year 30c and they had been particularly thoughtful in preparing the room...window open, curtains drawn, plug in fan on and bed made up with just the duvet covers (duvets store in the shelving unit). This kept the room cool and enabled a good nights sleep. The staff were friendly and helpful. Car parking readily available and free. (We used the Park and ride into Colchester from next A12 junction ...currently free with concessionary bus pass....and glad we did because parking and one way looked difficult). My only gripe with PI is they stopped doing the grab and go breakfast....coffee and toast is all we want so we always have to look for breakfast elsewhere. Would also recommend The Crown pub a couple of miles away.Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

"Nice and easy access "

Easy and fast check in. Very nice staff! The room was good, but I missed the aircondition. Their was a table fan who did a pretty good job. We went for the Meal deal which inclouded dinner and breakfast. Very easy to have everything prepared. Quick check out. Free parking 👍🏻
