"Not the worst Premier Inn"
Incredibly poor and slow service in the restaurant. Food is average and staff are utterly unaware of availability of dishes. Drinkes ordered with the meal often come as a dessert! Check in is easier if you go to the bar. No need to book a table in the evenings. Very thin walls!
"No onsite parking use the code in the pic"
Be aware there is no on site parking and it’s a 7 minute walk. Our room had a window that you can’t open, the A/C wouldn’t go on in the room so we had to keep asking the staff to do it remotely. For a big hotel the breakfast wasn’t that great and one of the toasters were broken. Not the best experience and we’ve stayed in a few premier inn,
"It was not for me"
Not for me. I like fresh air not poor air con. Wi fi was awful. Could only get a signal in the reception. Those are the 2 most important things to me and I got neither of them
"Very Convenient"
Convenient for High Street, Train Station and Utilia Stadium. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Saw me faffing about with the check in machine and came over straight away to help. Had a Premier + room very big no view. Bar area very nice. Breakfast good best fried ever had in a hotel.
"Staff need training on Health and Safety protocols"
I’m writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the service and safety at your Cardiff Queen Street property on July 19–20, 2025. Instead of the comfortable and secure environment I expected, my experience was ruined by serious issues that compromised both comfort and safety. From the moment I arrived, there was a strong smell of cannabis on every floor, which infiltrated my bedroom and made it unpleasant. Despite raising this with reception upon check-out, no action was taken. On Sunday evening, the fire alarms sounded continuously, leading to a chaotic and poorly coordinated evacuation. No clear instructions were given, fire service support didn’t arrive despite assurances, and only two police officers were on site. Of particular concern was the abandonment of a disabled guest on the ninth floor. No staff member provided assistance, leaving her stranded until myself other guests intervened. This lack of duty-of-care violates accessibility and safeguarding standards. All guests were herded into an uncovered car park in heavy rain and high winds, with no shelter or information. We were vulnerable, especially given the bomb threat. To add to the chaos, we were told the hotel didn’t own the car park and were ordered to disperse, highlighting the absence of a coherent contingency plan. These failures caused significant inconvenience, anxiety, and distress. I demand the following: Premier Inn need review and improve evacuation and accessibility procedures, including staff training on assisting vulnerable guests.
