"A quick stop over en route to Cornwall"

I booked this hotel after my stay in the Thorverton Arms was cancelled as they had to close due to covid so found this one straight away. Easy access of the M5 and free parking and a nearby Harvester. Had everything you want. The room is comfortable and the service is friendly even through these difficult times. Would highly recommend

"Excellent in all ways"

From the hassle free book in, the easy parking, FANTASTIC staff who did everything they could to make it a good stay. I can't fault it. There's a busy road not far away and the sound proofing was amazing. No slamming type doors and absolute peace and quiet. Very reasonable cost too. The bed was clean and comfy and a good air conditioner/heater in room. I asked for extra coffees and no problem at all. I love Premier Inns and this one is even better. VERY easy to find from the M5.

"Not bad stay but need some improvements"

About the Premier Inn in Taunton Ruishton, the stay of me and my family was ok I would say. Staff was quite friendly and welcoming, looks like Premier In during these covid days are working with the bare minimum staff, but the do their best, looks like. Room was quite good but there was a bit of a funny smell to it like kind of dumpy a bit. Cleaning standards was ok in the room but the carpet could have done with a bit more hoovering a part from that the room was good, good king size bed and 2 small single beds for the kids. Noise from the street is the real problem of this hotel, seating next to a big road and with a poor sound insulation, until 10pm it can be quite noisy. So if you are a light sleeper probably not the best place to stay. After 10pm the street noises are much less and quite acceptable. Overall a pleasant experience with a few minor issues.

"Wonderful Staff"

We stayed for a long weekend and not only were the staff polite, chatty and very friendly they went above and beyond for us. We stayed because my partner was getting a rather large tattoo from a near by artist and not only were they all excited to see it in progress each morning. They made sure our room was cleaned so that he felt secure about the healing process. Which was kind of them as room services were lessened to Covid restrictions. Not only that each morning they sent him off with extra pastries as snacks for his tattoo sittings free of charge! And we got to know the staff so well we found out one of them used to live very close to where we are now. The room was very clean, bed was super comfy and you can’t really hear the near by road. Pop next door for a Carvery and you are sorted! Only thing I will say is that if you stay in room 206.. double press the toilet flush other wise it can make a loud dripping noise that doesn’t stop.
