"So very disappointing"

Firstly, in Premier Inn’s defence, I have stayed in the hotels several times before for business and pleasure, and found them clean and comfortable. This Premier Inn does not compare by far. From walking into the room it was immediately obvious that it was unclean. The room was meant to be a “family” room, but it was so small and cramped, with very little leg room. The welcome throw (Premier Inn signature) at the base of the double bed was old worn and stained. The kettle was bad, looked like something growing on it! The heating went down leaving the room extremely ice box like. Was told there were no more rooms available!! There was debris on the floor and even previous guests clothes covers under the bed. The showers room was absolutely appalling. It had not seen a deep clean for as long as it had been there, and most certainly not cleaned before we arrived. The splashes of coffee/tea stains in the woodwork. And cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. The double bed creaked. The quilts were stained. I reported the room to the receptionist within 10 mins of arriving, who wasn’t very forthcoming and dismissed the size of the situation. We reported immediately via email to the head office through their website complaints form, which isn’t easy to find! We were contacted after the Xmas period and given a full refund of both the stay and breakfast. Breakfast was not ok. There were not enough staff to cater for a full house. People were wiring to be seated but had to wait for others to finish as not enough places. The continental breakfast was plentiful and adequate but the cooked breakfast was a sorrowful attempt and not edible. The experience has left us looking to avoid Premier Inn for the foreseeable future.

"Very convenient location "

I’ve never stayed here before but found it very convenient for what I needed to do in the area. It’s the usual Premier Inn experience and I was very impressed by the cleanliness. My only complaint would be the residents near me on one of the nights hadn’t read the large banner about the quiet zone from 10pm and were very rowdy coming back to their room at 1am! The Red Kite next door is also very handy.

"Breakfast was very poor"

30 minutes to deliver 2 breakfasts and another 10 minutes to deliver the kids breakfasts, all 4 breakfasts had items missing. The lady on reception as dismissive of the situation and was reluctant to repay the cost of the breakfasts.

"New years eve party"

Went to a new years eve party at Cedar Court, i chose to stay at The premier inn because Cedars prices were way to high, ive stayed at this premier inn before it was about 7 years ago, and what i can remember it hasnt changed, its the old style premier inn with blue coloured deco in the bathroom, to be honest i was only there from 5.30pm then i was out by 6.30pm, got back in the morning of new years day around 2.30 am and checked out at 11.00 am, the only little snick i had is that i could hear someone snoring next door, which caused me broken sleep, but thats no fault of the hotel, i would probably stay there gain if i have reason to

"Premier Experience"

Excellent value for money. Comfortable room with thermostat controlled heating. Facilities included TV, tea and coffee making facilities and very comfortable bed. Very good full breakfast.at £9.50 per head. Only issue was with fluctuation of shower temperature which had to be set to the highest possible to get best results.

Hotel description Premier Inn Hotel Wakefield South (M1, Jct39) is very convenient if you've got a break planned in the North East. We're within easy reach of the M1 and M62, and only 3 miles from Wakefield or 14 miles from Leeds. Enjoy the watersports at Pugneys Country Park. Or admire some incredible creations at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Get a fascinating glimpse of the local industrial heritage at the National Mining Museum, or go birdspotting at Newmillerdam. And when it's time for a rest, head back for a delicious meal at the restaurant just next to us and a great night's sleep in our super-comfy beds.
