"Disappointing breakfast"

I have just returned from an overnight stay in London with a friend and we stayed at the Premier Inn Watford Central. First of all I would have given this a 5 star review if it were not for 2 things. When checking in I booked breakfast as well which was £19 as we went for the full breakfast. Well this morning it was cook to order which is absolutely fine and it was a busy restaurant but I didn’t get to enjoy mine. I ordered my breakfast and went to get a coffee while my friend got her cereal. I waited nearly 25 minutes and still no breakfast and as we had made plans I had to just walk out and forget it. I would have been fine had I been warned the waiting time for food so I could have gotten something continental instead and after previously working for whitbread I know how busy breakfast can get. So basically I paid £19 for a coffee, a tea and a bowl of cereal. The second reason is I didn’t get a good nights sleep due to the mood lighting in the bed not turning off when all other switches were off so I kept waking up because the lighting was bright which my friend agreed with. I don’t usually complain but I think it should be something to take into consideration that patrons be warned the waiting time for cooked food so that nobody goes hungry and has to spend money elsewhere. Other than that the customer service was amazing and all staff were friendly but I will be requesting reimbursement for breakfast

"Great budget hotel for Harry Potter World"

Great budget hotel for a family trip to Harry Potter. Rooms are clean and beds are comfy. Staff are very friendly and helpful - in particular Damon on reception. Decent breakfast and plentiful. Dinner ok but plenty of places nearby if you have a car. Overall a good choice as HP only 10 mins up the road by taxi!

"Room good, staff good, breakfast good"

I suggest requesting rooms on top floor to avoid hearing people above as they move about their rooms. Can hear their floorboards creaking as they walk around the room, especially if they are not in control of their children and allow them to run riot on the landings or up and down the stairs banging doors etc.

"The usual minus car park"

We often stay at premier inn hotels so we can say this one was what you expect of the chain. This one had no beefeater or other restaurant attached to it like some do.it has its own little restaurant. Breakfast was busy but not my abnormally. You needed to order the hot food, and we were advised it would take 25min which seems an awfully long time for a breakfast with a predetermined list of items that are probably pre cooked? One surprise was to have to pay extra for the car park. We were explained the car parking didn’t belong to premier inn, but I’m unsure why this should be the customer concerns. Didn’t premier inn choose to build a hotel on this site? And it’s not a pay and display but something you pay premier inn.

Hotel description Get right to the heart of the action with Premier Inn Hotel Watford Central. In a great location in Watford's buzzing town centre, you'll also be just minutes from rail and underground links to central London. And if you're here to work, we're close to key destinations like Citizen Machinery too. Escape the office and catch the big game at Wembley Stadium. Become a wizard for a day on the Warner Brothers Studios Harry Potter tour. Or show your support at Watford Stadium. Then come back for a tasty meal in our restaurant, and kick back in our new, modern rooms and extra-comfy Hypnos bed.
