Advantages: Smaller & more personal Disadvantages: Still a relatively small chain
...If you travel in this country you have probably stayed in a Travel Inn or Travelodge, but you may not have tried an Innkeeper's Lodge.
On a recent trip to Kent, we stayed for one night in a Travelodge before proceeding to the Old Gate Inkeeper's Lodge in Canterbury. The difference between the two was very evident. At the Old Gate we were impressed by the cosiness of the room which actually had real furniture, not the open shelves and rails which other lodges have now adopted, and which give the room a bare feeling.
The Continental breakfast was plentiful and fresh, and included in the price, something else which others do not offer. In fact the 'Breakfast in a Bag' at the Travelodge was abysmal, and uneatable & £4.00 extra.
The rooms were part of the Pub building, giving more of the feeling of a hotel proper. Obviously the food...

...My wife and I have stayed at Travel Lodges about 20 times the last 10 years.We have no complaints at all.Good value for money.Clean,lovley towels,shower,bath,large settee,tv,coffee,tea,milk and the staff have always been friendly and efficient even arriving late at night,and a Gideon bible on the table.We regard the T travel Lodges as overnight stays and not as a luxury hotel with all the trimmings,and this is done,I think very well.Booking is easy by telephone or online.The nice thing about the Lodges is the good standard you receive every visit.This takes away the worry of what you might expect while are traveling.Apart from the city centre Lodges there is usualy plenty of car parking,BRILLIANT.We will be staying at Travel Lodges in the future....

Advantages: Good value. Pay on arrival or departure. Adjacent pub/restaurant. Disadvantages: None
...For my work within Great Britain, I have switched from staying mainly in Travel Inns to mainly in Premier Lodges. Premier Lodge has now expanded to sufficient locations to make this viable - currently over 110 open and 10 or so opening soon, I believe. (None in Northern Ireland, which is why my title says GB not UK.)
Like most Travel Inns and Travelodges, the Premier Lodges I have visited have functional, clean accommodation blocks with identical rooms and standard facilities - bed, chairs, desk, coffee/tea, some with phones, bath/shower/WC. Apart from some metropolitan locations, all the chains seem to charge between £39 and £50, and Premier Lodge are no exception, starting at £42.
I first chose a Premier Lodge because nearby Travel Inns were booked solid. I was expecting an identical experience to the other chains. These are all...

Back in August everything was going fantastically, I'd been on a great barge holiday with friends, work was bearable, things with hubby good, and my self-injury charity work going amazingly.
I became aware of a self-harm conference in... more
