"Great hotel by the sea"

We stayed with 2 kids in a family room (206) and it was a lovely big corner room with sea views. Hotel was modern, staff friendly, breakfast a bit slow but is to be expected at the moment with all the covid regulations. Also having the Brewers Fayre downstairs open in the evening was great as easy to get some food for the kids after a long day digging about in the beach.

"Great location"

Across the road from seafront, nice walks along seafront, easy parking, have to pay but not expensive. Breakfast was fine.Better value if you book before you arrive. Vending machine out of order for the 2 days we were there.Only 2 tea bags and 2 coffees in room, so had to ask for more but this was fine. Also asked for extra pillows and these were delivered within 10 mins.

"2020 South Coast"

First time here, excellent check in, very informative, hand sanitiser stations and social distance procedures in place, requiring a face mask during check in and in public spaces. Reception staff very accommodating, assisting with procedures in place and when we experienced an issue with the parking, they happily assisted and sorted. Room was perfect for our needs with hairdryer, seating and sea view. Very clean and spacious. Location was front line sea view with a short walk into the town and the pier. Highly recommend!!!

"Hotel great - bar and restaurant a shambles!"

clean rooms, friendly staff, well laid out, Covid restrictions displayed clearly, secure rooms, bar and restaurant was a disaster. The bar manager was bumbling around taking far too long dealing with each customer. Constant waiting times to get a drink and then wrongly charged for a meal. Breakfast the next day was much improved.

"Average"

Were given a welcome rather than a warm welcome. After a 5 hour drive a smile would have been nice. One of the two automatic hand sensors didn’t work on arrival. We had room 102 - a view of a flat roof. Desk lamp wasn’t working. We requested more pillows to have 2 each - makes sense they remove the spares for hygiene - and these were brought to us within 5 minutes by a more friendly lady. We were unfortunate in having a child jumping off a bed in the room above us for about an hour at 11 pm. Waited a long time to be seated for a booked time for breakfast - hardly any staff around. Once ordered took a long time to arrive. The delay didn’t appear to be effected by Covid so not sure why so slow. Breakfast staff were lovely. We have stayed at this hotel several times previously but this was the worst stay. Also last time we were told we didn’t have to pay the parking charge but this time we did. I think all residents should just give their reg number and receive free parking. To charge residents seems nuts. Not sure we would stay here any more

Hotel description An action-packed day at the seaside will be all the more fun after a night in one of Premier Inn Southend-On-Sea's new generation bedrooms, featuring an impressive 40" flat screen TV, bright, modern bathroom with a large shower head, and brand new, slumber-inducing, king size Hypnos bed. Staying at our Southend-On-Sea hotel, you're super close to Sea Life Adventure, the famous Southend Pier, as well as the attractions and amenities of this bustling, Essex, coastal town centre. Once the day is over, our on-site Brewers Fayre restaurant will be waiting to take your order.
