"Hotel no problems, staff looked unhappy..."

We have stopped here loads of times before and as per most of our previous visits the hotel was spotless and the room was very clean with everything working. A few shortages on breakfast but overall no complaints as it was all well cooked and presented. My wife and I both picked up that the staff seemed to have some kind of cloud over them, not sure if this is due to it being a busy time of year or if something else was afoot. We did not see one manager in 3 days so possibly this could be the reason why the staff looked discontented. Overall we will stop here again as it is in a great location for ourselves, maybe approaching time for a freshen up as some of the decor is looking slightly tired.

"Excellent stay with friendly helpful staff."

We had stayed at Craven Drive last summer and had such a pleasant stay that we decided to book up again for our stopover while travelling north to celebrate the New Year. We were welcomed by Bill behind reception who we remembered from our last and was as welcoming and helpful as ever. He sorted out a request about our reservation without any problem and we enjoyed a very pleasant stay in a comfortable, warm and clean room. However I am still trying to work out why Premier Inns have removed the heated towel rails from the bathrooms which were a touch of luxury especially in winter which placed them above the competition. You can still see the holes in the walls were they have been removed!! One of the big plus points about this Premier Inn is that breakfast is cooked to order in the restaurant on site and served by the wonderful friendly Teresa and others. There are two restaurants to choose from onsite, cheap fuel across the road at Sainsburys and five minutes from the M6/M65. Good value for money with friendly and helpful staff.

"BED AND NO BREAKFAST"

When travelling south, we broke our journey paid in advance for bed/breakfast at Premier Inn, Preston South Craven Drive Hotel, Lostockhall. After sleeping in a grubby room, my husband went to put our baggage in the car and I went to get a table for breakfast. I was met at the door and told we could not have breakfast for at least 20 minutes. I went out to tell my husband and he said that people were just walking in off the street for breakfast. I said that could not be true but in the next 10-15 minutes saw it was blatantly true! I went back in and the Manager who had said come back in 20 min. was now behind reception. I asked him if it was company policy to allow people to walk in and have breakfast even if they were NOT paying guests. He confirmed that this was correct. I was /am furious. I had paid for bed AND BREAKFAST in advance, and yet people who were not staying in the Inn were walking in and being seated before me to have breakfast which I had already paid for! I said to the Manager did he not think it rather unfair that people staying at the Inn should have to wait until after people who were not staying were served. He said it was unfortunately the case. He offered me a refund for breakfast. I said I did not want a refund but he said it would be at least another 10 minutes before we could be seated. So we were forced to take the refund for breakfast and look elsewhere to eat it!!! We should have got a refund for the whole visit!!

"As Premier Inns go, this one is fine"

We stayed here overnight as we had a job nearby early the following day and the people we were seeing suggested staying here. We checked availability on line before going but when we arrived, they quoted us a higher price than the online price. We queried it and they said they couldn’t match the online price but it was ok for us to stand there and book the rooms online to get the better price! This does seem an odd system to me. Anyway, the reception staff were polite, helpful and efficient. The rooms were clean and tidy, although a little basic (as is the way with many Premier Inns). The evening meal was had at the pub across the road and that was great - reviewed separately. Breakfast was at the Premier Inn and that was fine. Plenty of food and hot. Well worth the £9.50. I have rated this place as a Premier Inn. It is not a luxury hotel, but it has the basics and is clean.
