"Great location near the underground but would try another Premier Inn next time"

The hotel was OK - we would definitely go back to a Premier Inn in London, but a different one. * The area was quite noisy at all times of the night, not just from the pub round the corner. Rubbish seemed to be taken at all hours (or at least that's what it sounded like). * When people were running taps in another room it sounded like "a badly played flute" as my son said. It was rather annoying. * The air conditioning seemed to go off automatically when we wanted it left on. * Breakfast time seemed rather chaotic. There seemed to be no one coordinating and in charge to supervise the area. Tables were being cleaned when there was a queue of people, people had to keep asking for things such as more butter or another knife (because like my son he had a cooked breakfast then wanted Nutella on a croissant so he wanted another knife). Things kept running out without being replenished first. It seemed like they were fire fighting the whole time rather than being ahead of the game - it was like this every day and we went down at different times. The layout of the breakfast area didn't help with no simple one way in and one way out or in an area away from people just trying to get to their seats. * With having a family room (one double, one single and one pull-out bed, we knew we were to have less room but there was room against a wall for some more storage - there is not enough for a family to hang up clothes or even fold them in a drawer as there was only one drawer. * The big positive was the location being only a few minutes walk from the underground.

"Handy for getting into London"

Great location, room was small, very dark, had a very small window that looked out to a building that was being renovated, so not the best view. Staff were very nice, breakfast we thought was expensive untill we tried to eat out in Shoreditch. A very trendy place croissant and the small cup of coffee for 2 people cost 14 quid. So turned out the breakfast in the hotel was great value for money.

"London Weekend ! "

The best thing about Premier inn is their beds without a doubt ! They are that good , personally it sells the brand even if everything else isn’t right ! I’d say that in this case it didn’t disappoint but some things didn’t please me a little ! Firstly I had to do self check in on a machine which I’d never done before , it rather takes away the personal touch , the ladies at Premier inn haydock are top of the league , anyway it was ironic that as I was doing this and booking dinner at the same time ( Subsequently the restaurant never got the booking as the machine was meant to be closed off) the reception had a Q ! Also on this “ machine” you had to activate your room key ( it didn’t work) ! So I went to reception and asked for activation ! What’s significant about this hotel is that it has a lot of European staff , I only came across two from England , I’m Scottish softly spoken and polite and I try to keep my speech slower so that I can be understood , sadly this girl couldn’t get my comment on my key needed reactivating! In the end it got done ! My other problem was the food , in a country where the humble chip is an institution I’m not a fan of three times fried frozen chips , they just get the moisture ripped out of them and their stout pie think had been under grill too long as it had a black mark on it , the dryers needed changed I think going by the colour of the batter on the fish , along with the gammon and pineapple had charcoal on it from an evidently not brushed chargrill , food chargrilled or not shouldn’t appear “ dirty” on a plate ! These aren’t criticisms but observations that’s all ! On the whole it was a pleasant stay , the restaurant man and young girl who were on Saturday were top of the league and I’d say are a credit to this premier inn ! As always I got two nights of the best sleeps ever !

"Good Hotel and Location but very slow service in resturant"

We used this hotel as a base for taking our kids to London it was very reasonably priced. The food in the restaurant was very nice and the people serving were very kind and friendly but the food was very slow to arrive even when there were not many people eating. we waited 45 min between main and pudding one evening.

"Functional"

Great location for everything around Old street/shoreditch/Hoxton but not as good as a lot of other PI's. Seemed a bit worn round the edges. Staff always seemed over stretched but biggest problem was that our rooms were not ready til 5pm !! No excuse in my book for this and leaves you frustrated from the off. No real apology for the delay or anything either

Hotel description Get a fresh perspective on the capital at Premier Inn London City (Old Street). Wake up to amazing views across the London skyline - from the Olympic Park to the Shard - before exploring some of the hidden gems, off-the-beaten-track delights and landmark sights. Delve into London's most colourful markets in Spitalfields, around Brick Lane and Petticoat Lane. Catch some cutting-edge performances at the Barbican. Or hop on a tube to explore the West End, St Paul's Cathedral, the London Eye and more. After a long day or a late night, you'll find everything you need to relax and recharge: comfy rooms, a top-notch breakfast, and all for a 'pinch yourself' price.
