Premier Inn Perth

Absolutely! Perth is a fantastic destination in the heart of Scotland, with a mix of history, culture and natural beauty. Whether you’re visiting for a relaxing break, a fun-filled holiday or a business trip, Perth has something for everyone. From family-friendly attractions and historic landmarks to vibrant bars and superb restaurants, it's a well-rounded city that’s easy to explore and full of charm. 

Perth is located in Perthshire, right in the heart of Scotland. Its central location makes it a great base for exploring the rest of the country. It’s also well connected, sitting less than an hour’s drive from Dundee, so it's an easy day trip if you're staying elsewhere in the region. 

Yes! Perth is an ideal spot for a city break. It offers a perfect mix of natural beauty, with lovely riverside walks and historic buildings, perfect for unwinding. You’ll find everything you need for a short getaway – culture, shopping, dining and green spaces – all within easy reach of each other. 

Perth is known as “The Fair City,” and it holds a special place in Scotland’s history. Once the ancient capital of Scotland, it's famously home to Scone Palace, where Scottish kings were crowned. The city is also recognised for its cultural attractions like the Perth Museum and Art Gallery, and its ties to literature, thanks to the tale of the Fair Maid of Perth. Set on the banks of the River Tay, it’s admired for its natural beauty, architecture and thriving arts scene. Whether you're into history, the outdoors or local heritage, Perth is full of character. 

There’s plenty to keep you entertained in Perth. Culture lovers will enjoy visiting the Perth Museum and Art Gallery, home to fascinating exhibitions and local history. The statue of the Fair Maid of Perth is a must-see for literature fans, and Perth Theatre is a great spot for live performances. Just a short drive away, you’ll find the stunning Scone Palace – once the crowning place of Scottish kings. It’s a must-visit if you're into royal history or just fancy a walk around the grounds. 

Perth is less than an hour’s drive from Dundee, making it a great option for a day trip if you’re staying in a nearby city. The route is straightforward and scenic, so it’s an easy journey whether you’re driving or using public transport. 

Yes, Perth has several places for a spot of retail therapy. The main one is the St John’s Shopping Centre, right in the heart of the city. It has a mix of high street favourites and independent shops. Around the centre, you’ll also find specialist boutiques, local artisan stores and gift shops, especially along George Street and South Street.  

Definitely! Perth is a compact and walkable city, which makes it really easy to explore on foot. The city centre is flat and well laid out, with most attractions, shops and restaurants within walking distance of each other. You can stroll from St John’s Kirk to North Inch Park, wander along the River Tay or browse the shops without needing to rely on public transport.  

Perth offers a great night out, especially if you're looking for a mix of lively and laid-back. The city has a variety of cosy pubs, trendy cocktail bars and live music venues. There are also plenty of restaurants serving everything from traditional Scottish dishes to global cuisines, ideal for a dinner out before heading to the theatre or catching some live music.  

A day or two in Perth is ideal for exploring the main sights and enjoying the city. If you just want to hit the highlights – like Scone Palace, Perth Museum and Art Gallery, and a riverside walk – one full day could do the job. But if you’d like time to enjoy the shops, check out a local event or show and venture into nearby countryside or castles, then a long weekend is a perfect length. It’s also a great base for exploring wider Perthshire and the Highlands if you’re staying longer.

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.
