Premier Inn Hinckley

Hinckley has a rich history in the hosiery industry – once a major hub of knitted goods thanks to the arrival of the first framework knitting machine in the 17th century. By the 19th century, it was supplying a significant share of Britain’s hosiery. You can explore that story at the Hinckley & District Museum, set in former knitters’ cottages and featuring historic machinery.

In more recent times, it’s become known for being home to Triumph Motorcycles since 1990, and it’s where Ultima Sports, makers of the GTR720 supercar, are based.

Yes, it’s definitely a town, located in Leicestershire and serving as one of the main settlements in the Hinckley & Bosworth borough. It’s more than a village, with a distinct centre, historic roots, a railway station and leisure spots that make it stand on its own.

You’ll find a mix of heritage and modern life here. That hosiery legacy is still visible, especially if you visit the local museum, and the town supports a creative and tech scene in converted old industrial spaces such as the Atkins Building and Graphic House. Triumph Motorcycles gives it a strong connection to British automotive heritage, local businesses and distribution hubs add to its reputation as a hardworking, industrious place.

Absolutely! You can enjoy a variety of experiences without needing to head far:

• History buffs will appreciate the hosiery museum and St Mary’s Church, the town’s oldest building, standing for nearly 900 years, with a coffee bar in its North Chapel.

• Culture fans might catch a show at Concordia Theatre, run by volunteers and hosting around 30 productions a year, from musicals to pantomimes.

• Nature lovers have Burbage Common & Woods just a short hop away, perfect for a gentle walk or picnic.

• For something different, the Bond Street Distillery, the haunted-antiques paranormal centre and local food festivals add a unique twist.

In 2020 we launched Premier Inn CleanProtect™, our rigorous, daily cleaning method that’s used throughout our UK & Ireland hotels. Developed in partnership with Diversey, a global leader in cleaning and hygiene products for the healthcare and hospitality industries, our promise seeks to give you extra peace of mind so you can always book and stay with confidence.

Check-in - minimising contact at reception and providing hand sanitiser in most public areas for peace of mind. 

Bed linen and towels - laundering all our linen and towels at over 60°C to thermally disinfect them, so you can enjoy a great night’s sleep. We’ve also placed spare pillows in a zip-up bag, for extra peace of mind.

Equipping our teams - providing our team members with all the equipment and sanitisers they need, as well as always operating in the safest way possible for our teams and guests.

A generous serving of safety - you can relax knowing that enhanced cleaning measures are in place throughout our restaurants. Tables are cleaned between visits and contactless payment is in place too, so you can dine safely and comfortably with us every time.

Clean on request - if you'd like your room cleaned during your stay with us, just let us know at reception and use the handy door hanger on the back of your door by 12pm each day.

Most Premier Inns have specially-adapted rooms allowing easier access for customers with disabilities. If there is no specially-adapted room available at the hotel of your choice, we will be happy to offer you alternative accommodation at a nearby Premier Inn. If you have difficulty walking, but do not need a specially-adapted room, please feel free to request a room near reception on the ground floor for easy access.
