"A slow decline for Premier Inn?"

For business trips Premier Inn has been a personal go-to for many years. There is always a certain amount of comfort in knowing exactly what you’re going to get, especially after a long day of travel of work. For me the brand offered a consistently good level of service, cleanliness and condition for a fair price. But recent visits, including this one have started to damage that reputation. Let’s start with price, gone are the days of picking up a bargain or feeling that you got a great deal. At the price of this visit I may as well have stayed at the Radisson Blu across the road that has superior rooms and a gym and a pool! Things are a little better in the bar and restaurant where there are bargains, such as a two-course dinner, drink and breakfast deal for £24.99. For that you get reasonable food and often healthy portions. Don’t expect anything gourmet and even if you have eaten at an own brand “Thyme” restaurant before don’t expect the same meal. Both portion size and quality vary massively between locations these days. The other upside that I would point out is the parking charge. Only £4 a night at an airport location. That is very reasonable. As for the declining quality and inconsistency at Premier Inn, it shows worst in the rooms. An ageing mattress, thinning sheets, barely functional air conditioning that was gurgling all night. The bathroom is showing it’s age and is a lot less pleasant than some cheaper hotels such a Motel One or Travelodge. As I was on business I also needed to iron a shirt. Easy enough to request an iron and ironing board, though they’re not already available in each room. However the ironing board had a foot missing, meaning that it was wobbling around and the surface had clearly been damaged, leaving a lumpy top... Not ideal for ironing. I may stay here again for convenience, but Premier Inn are definitely in decline.

"Cold Food"

Stayed here on 22 October 2018. Was looking forward to my fish, chips and peas in the Thyme restaurant as I was starving. We waited 45 mins for our meal to arrive. Hubby had sea bass which was ok but my meal was stone cold and the bread and butter was so stale I could have knocked my husband out with it. Bread and butter was replaced but I didn’t want to wait another 45 mins for another meal. I was offered a free drink instead. I felt I should not have had to pay for my meal but I was too tired to argue. Had an early flight so just wanted to get to my bed. We have stayed at East Midlands premier inn on several occasions and always had a lovely meal so was very disappointed.

"Average "

We stayed overnight before a flight from East Midlands. It was cheap and convenient, but not great against other Premier Inns. We had a wait to check in, as there was no-one at the front desk, we had to pay extra to park in their car park, which I felt was a bit of a cheek, and where Premier Inns usually have a decent pub next door, this had a tiny in-house bar for food, which was draughty and expensive. It cost £80 for a pizza, a burger, a curry, a smothered chicken and four drinks, which were decidedly average. It served its purpose, but we wouldn't use this particular Premier Inn again.

"Mum’s Last Farewell "

We live in Bournemouth and had to attend my mothers funeral in Nottingham. I took my family and other half’s so needed 3 rooms As it was on a Friday, I made a plan to stay over and go to Bicester village the next day. As time was tight I asked the inn if they could free up 1 room for 1300 to allow us to change prior to the event. Julia couldn’t have been more helpful and said that she would sort it out for me. Well we duly arrived and Julia came to our assistance and provided not the one room but managed to get us all in so making the whole process run smoothly. We returned after the event and had dinner that was just right. After a good nights rest we got up and had breakfast , that was plentiful and enjoyable. The staff were attentive and friendly at all times and extremely helpful, we will be using them again in the future

"great breakfast"

Good night sleep, great staff and the breakfast was cooked really well and lots to eat.Beware!! with children the z bed mattress they were given you could feel the springs thorough. When you go ask for an extra duvet for them to sleep on. it was too late for us to do.
