Convenient Parking

The dedicated car park was an absolute lifesaver, providing easy access to my vehicle whenever I needed it. I loved that I didn’t have to worry about finding a spot after a long day of exploring, as parking was readily available and just a few steps away.

Our stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean but uncomfortably warm, and the service was responsive but could have been better managed. The location was convenient, with easy access to nearby shops and attractions. Unfortunately, the dining options were limited and didn’t meet our expectations this time around due to closures.

I had a mixed experience at this Premier Inn. While the room was clean and the staff were friendly, the overall condition of the hotel felt outdated, which was disappointing. The dining options at the adjacent Brewers Fayre were lackluster, and we faced long waits to be seated even when it was quiet. Parking was a hassle due to registration issues, making it a bit stressful. Overall, there were some highlights, but the negatives brought the experience down.

The room was clean, but it felt a bit tired and needed a refresh. The bedding, while clean, looked like it was hastily made.

The dining experience at the Brewers Fayre fell short with a limited menu and food that was often average at best.
