"A wonderful break"

My partner and I are local to Wakefield, but are about to move into our first home, and came to stay at this hotel for a night away from the chaos! We ended up extending our stay to another night, making it a weekend break. We understand times are challenging in all professions during Covid-19, and we were debating whether or not just to stay at home amongst the chaos - but we were welcomed by the wonderful Isobel. We popped out to the lovely red kite a couple of times, even going back home to sort out new house stuff. Each time we popped in and out of the hotel (at all different times of the day during the weekend) Isobel seemed to be there ready to help at all times - bless her heart! Thank you Isobel. The room was incredibly clean, the shower was lovely and my partner and I had the best two nights sleep we have had in a LONG time. In regards to Covid-19, there were clear functional signs and hand sanitising spots, an efficient one-way system and safety screens everywhere in the shared areas! We treated ourself to breakfast on the final morning. No points for guessing who was there and waiting to help us, and make breakfast a really enjoyable safe experience! Isobel was fantastic throughout our entire stay. I would whole-heartedly recommend the premier inn as a safe place to stay during this pandemic, and an enjoyable lovely experience also. Specifically this one! Thanks.

"good for Wakefield or Barnsley"

stayed on the ground floor but it was very quiet, staff were great. Social distancing was on point. Breakfast was good but overpriced if you are not travelling with kids, as children eat free. Unfair on people who dint have kids. There is a toby Carvery just down the road, will be eating there on next visit

"Stop over stay"

Staff were friendly and polite, especially the restaurant staff at breakfast. Distancing measures all in place so felt safe in these strange times. Bed so comfortable as always. Would stop off here again as so close to the M1 yet quiet.

"Really well run"

The usual premier inn rooms, with staff who are friendly and engaged. It’s always a positive experience here, I have visited many times . The ladies on reception and in the breakfast room are super efficient and solicitous.

"Very well organised during this challenging time for staff due to guidelines with Covid 19"

The room was very clean and hygienic. The staff were very helpful and anything we required was dealt with immediately e.g. additional pillows , supplies of coffee. There was plenty of hand gel available in reception and adjacent to the lift.

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.
