"Not Second Time Lucky!"

We stayed in this hotel back in May due to its value for money and a short bus ride from St Pancras Station. I booked again because my Wife and I were very pleased with our stay first time round.......Would it be same again........unfortunately not...... On arrival there was no one in ‘front of house’ which I thought was strange but never mind, checked ourselves in and the computer allocated us room 922! 922 was found in nipping clean condition and a credit again to the cleaning staff for keeping the rooms very clean. Because we were having an early start the next day, we decided to try and get a table in the restaurant....This was to prove a challenge which failed at 19:10 on a Saturday night!!!! There was a sign saying on the bar that the restaurant would be busy between 20:30 and 21:30, but surely this wouldn’t effect us? Yes it did!!! We were told we couldn’t get a table as they were having a party of 20 and therefore the restaurant was closed???? A Saturday night in a busy hotel???? I could understand if it had to close to everyone due to unforeseen circumstances but just to cater for a large group and everyone else can ‘sod’ off!!! NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!! Hopefully all the guests didn’t go down for breakfast at the same time the next morning......... For my Wife and I, it wasn’t too much of a problem but there was a family with kids who ended up eating in the bar with food from which looked like a local takeaway. In our view this is embarrassing for the Whitbread group who make most of their money from these hotels where generally the standard is excellent! Let’s hope that it is a ‘blip’ and it will be interesting to see if they actually read the surveys they send their customers.......Watch this space!!

"Very unhappy "

We arrived on friday 26th October around 8pm. Our first issue was with the restaurant. The waitress was lovely however we waited 45 minutes for our drinks. They arrived just as our food did. Im guessing she forgot? We ate our food and then asked for the bill. We waited another 15/20 minutes to be able to pay. We had 2 kids with us ages 11 and 6 and by this point we all just wanted to go to bed so didnt make a fuss. Woke up on Saturday morning and my husband had bites on his body. I checked myself and our 2 children who all also had some bites although nowhere near as bad as my husband. He went to reception and showed them and he was then offered a free breakfast which he didnt want as we would still have to pay for the other 3 of us. The lady gave him a card with the guest relations number and told him to phone them and the room cost would be refunded. Phoned them on sunday and they said they would get someone to check the room and get back to us. Today we have had the call returned and been told that theyve checked the room the room is fine and unfortunately there is nothing else they can do for us. My first question is why were we advised by hotel staff we would be refunded? My second question none of us had bites when we entered that room, all had bites when we left on the Saturday morning. So that tells me we were bitten in that room. I dont recall ever leaving a bad review before because we are easily pleased and easy going. I wouldnt even of mentioned the restaurant issue but i find this situation absolutely disgusting. We have pictures that we can show if there is any member of staff reading this that has an ounce of decency in them and would like to advise us further since guest relations have told us they cant!

"Another good Premier Inn."

Good hotel, clean, comfortable spacious room with all that you expect from this hotel chain. Not luxurious but delivers all you need, very comfortable bed, good shower and tea/coffee facilities. Slight problem with housekeeping on this visit as we were short of towels which didn't improve after notifying reception. What I don't like is the fact you can't open the windows, so no fresh air and also the poor toiletry dispensers in the bathroom. Not major problems though and I would revisit. Location is good, bus stop outside and tube station just around the corner.

"Good Value"

We stayed in a family room (4 pers.). The room was clean and good but too warm. Very good deal on breakfast (kids until 16 yrs. eat for free if adults eat). Great location - bus stops in front of hotel, and tube stop close by. highly recommended hotel!

"Acceptably Basic"

We stayed one night, attending a party at a nearby restaurant. The hotel is part of the no-frills Premier Inn chain with a pretty convenient location for the City. Check-in is automated although the machine delivered two key cards which didn't work and had to be re-recorded - after we'd travelled all the way to the 12th floor and back down again. The room was OK, beginning to show it's age in various ways and with a very odd smell. If we hadn't been staying for just the 1 night, we would have had to get moved to a different room. But still, it's basic, it's cheap(ish), and does the job. However, we can't help feeling that we probably could have found somewhere nicer for only a few pounds more.

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.
