Northampton West (Harpole) hotel

Not the best looking hotel but a good standard and the restaurant next door was really good for food. Staff very friendly and in restaurant very helpful

Fantastic hotel. Staff couldn’t help more no ask was to big! Very friendly housekeeping staff that were always happy to give us what we asked for.

From the moment we pulled into the car park to leaving it was dreadful. The outside of the hotel has rubbish and cigarette ends everywhere. The reception staff were outside smoking when we arrived not a good look at all. Went to our room the corridors smelt really fusty and horrible and the corridor carpets were filthy didn’t look like they had been hovered for a while. The room was like a sauna with no air conditioning it had a fan in it that was neither use nor ornament,the pillows were rock hard and the bathroom was full of black mould. We visited family that evening and returned at 10.30 went to get a drink in the bar but their card machine wasn’t working so we went to the room to get cash when we returned they had shut the doors so no drink. We booked early breakfast at 7 as we needed to get my grand daughter to a football tournament early but they didn’t open the doors until 7.15. Breakfast was shocking. The place was filthy crumbs everywhere,the toasters were both filthy and didn’t work properly,there were hardly any clean cups,the bacon was rock hard and the beans were cold. The fresh fruit salad was awful very bitter and dry obviously not done freshly and the bananas were brown. There was one person on duty who looked very disheveled and stressed so I didn’t complain to him at the time. I phoned the premier inn today to complain and was offered £38 compensation because I didn’t complain at the time. There were a lot of us that stayed there and they all felt the same too so I would avoid this place like the plague. We stay in premier inns quite often but never have I seen a place like this it needs condemning 😡😡😡

"Decent value, but unbearable in summer" This hotel offers good value overall, but the lack of air conditioning is a major issue. It was impossible to sleep — the room was far too hot and uncomfortable, even with a very noisy desk fan. I would not stay here again during the summer months.

Typical premier inn style. Everything clean and how it should be. Had a large fan in the room which was greatly appreciated as visited in the heatwave. Husband uses a wheelchair so negotiating through doors was a problem particularly in the adjacent beefeater. That itself was a let down, large meals that weren't of particular interest for pur age group. Soup and a roll woukd have done but couldn't even get any small or child portions. Just had a pudding so was a bit disappointing.
