"Don’t stay!"

I rarely write reviews but I took the time out especially to write this as I’m currently sitting in this stinky hell. The room is gross and stinks and has weird marks in it. Told the manager who said they can move me to another premier inn as they have another 4 rooms of people who have water flooded rooms and are full. I can’t even open the window an inch for fresh air due to “health and safety” and my train is in 6 hours so by the time I get to another hotel I’ll have to get up again soon after. I’m a professional working for a global firm and this was booked as it was the closest to the venue because the other ideal hotels were further out. I wish I had gone for those. This is making me feel sick. I’m normally one of those girls who just ignores the reviews and goes with it anyway but please don’t! Worst premier inn ever it’s disgusting. There was even a lady in the lift who said she’s waiting until 7am to get the heck out of here. The AC doesn’t work either. Save your money.

"The worst Premier Inn I've stayed at."

Have stayed at dozen of Premier Inns. They're normally clean, efficient, with a good breakfast, and a fair price. This was the worst I've been in. Room smelt of paint or bleach. Very unpleasant. Complained, but hotel was full so no other room could be offered. Had a very poor night's sleep. Room had been recently renovated, and not yet ready for habitation in my opinion. No towels in room. Had to track some down ourselves. Half the lifts were not working. Breakfast was poor : a tiny buffet selection with cold hard eggs, no bacon ready, one coffee machine with no milk. Packed restaurant which was too small for the size of hotel. Reception understaffed: people queuing to check in while both receptionists serve at the bar. Staff had no interest at all in customer satisfaction. Complaints met with complete indifference. I was just told to phone customer services after leaving, who refunded cost of stay immediately.

"Only own Towel in room"

Such a shame to arrive at the hotel to find only one towel for myself and my wife to use because they hadn't received a delivery on time. We could have been notified in advance or other arrangements could have been made. No apologies were given.

"Very poor on all counts"

1. Cold rooms - poor heating 2. Tepid water 3. Broken down lifts 4 Dirty corridors Bring your own room heater . Don't expect a hot shower. Then you are ok. Want a decent hotel try others like Holiday Inn close by.

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.
