I recently stayed in the premier inn on the Haymarket when I went to the harbour festival. The rooms themselves are nice and spacious, however when we entered our room it soon became clear that someone had been smoking in the room as there was a smell of cigarettes. Next to the Premier Inn is the beefeater and the food in there is delicious, this is where you also go for breakfast. There wasn't any noise from outside during the night, which is good seeing as it is near a busy city roundabout, and the bed was very comfy. The bathroom was clean and there were plenty of towels and the room itself was spotless. The price for the overnight stay was quite epxensive, and that wasn't including breakfast so this would probably stop me from staying there again.I recently stayed in the premier inn on the Haymarket when I went to the harbour festival.

This chain of hotels are all about providing basic accommodation at cheap prices for the person who just wants somewhere to stop for the night, possibly on a business trip or just visiting someone. The accommodation is comfortable with no frills and there are numerous hotels in the chain located all around the UK.

Iâ¬"ve used them many times over the years and basically they are comfortable and practical as long as you arenâ¬"t too fussy. Yes you get an en-suite bathroom, the bedding and room are clean, tidy and warm and each room has a TV and entertainment system. Food is available at a cost, as is wireless internet access.

I stayed here for 4 nights and I really have no idea why I did not walk out immediately after setting foot in the room.

At first try the tv didn't work but a member staff managed to sort that out so that was no big deal. I then noticed that the carpet seemed to be covered in dog hair, masses of it and as such I spent all my time in the room on the bed to avoid the carpet filth. Even there I wasn't safe, the sheets were ok, certainly not as good as I expected but they'd do however the cover on top was again rife with hair. The en suite was.....eugh, I don't know when the last time anyone cleaned the tiles there or the taps. It was awful, it was a task to even stand in the bath to get a shower, certainly would not lie down in that.

Then there were the staff. The staff seemed to be comprised of students that can't really cook a breakfast or pay attention to what you've asked for and instead bring you a plate with the wrong things on it. There's also the issue of the 24hr kitchen which is not 24hrs. You may find yourself in the situation I was in, having decided to eat late on in the evening I went to reception and placed my order only to find that the man on reception didn't work there full time and didn't know how it worked. He then called someone who did work there full-time who told him the food was in the freezer and that he wouldn't be able to find it nor would it be ready for me for a long time even if he could so he informed me that the kitchen was closed. Everywhere nearby that served food was also closed at this time so it was far from a pleasant experience.

Do not be fooled by the pictures on its website, the place is a complete tip.I stayed here for 4 nights and I really have no idea why I did not walk out immediately after setting foot in the room.

Stayed here in June and it is a hotel to be studiously avoided: a bed and breakfast of a type that ought to have died. Dingy, not overly clean (paint, bathroom, etc.) and for the rather dodgy area it is in, very much overpriced. Stay anywhere else.Stayed here in June and it is a hotel to be studiously avoided: a bed and breakfast of a type that ought to have died.
