Advantages: The hub for all your sightseeing adventures, a pleasant place to stay, easy accessible.
Disadvantages: None

...In December 2005 we travelled up north from Portsmouth to Darlington to see our family, this being a regular event for us as we love travel, and we stayed for a couple of nights in a hotel. It's called Sleep Inn Hotel & Conference Centre Darlington and can be found at the south end of the A167 at Newton Park approximately 35 metres from junction 59 on the A1(M) either north or south exits will get you there. At the entrance to Newton Park you will find a MacDonald's and a petrol station then it's straight on to the hotel and the automatic barrier that lets you into the car park. The hotel is only two and a half years old and is very well lit with it's very neat, clean and tidy landscaping and the very large free car park had plenty of spare places, in fact it was near enough empty. In front and at the sides of the main entrance... Read review

...We have stayed at Premier Inns in the past and felt fairly confident that we wouldn't be disappointed when booking Premier Inn Parkway in Guildford. Premier Inns offer standard accommodation, so you know pretty much what to expect.

I booked a two night break in August for my husband and myself with the intention of visiting the nearby RHS Garden at Wisley and doing a bit of shopping in Guildford - and also to have a bit of a break from the kids! Premier Inn hotels should be booked through the Premier Inn website. To find the Parkway Premier Inn click on Guildford (Central) on the pull down list. On the website you will find details of hotel locations... Read review

...for a base – somewhere to sleep and have a wash. If you’re looking for somewhere to spend longer periods of time, then Travel Inn is probably not for you. A number of the older Travel Inns are now starting to look a little worse for wear too and a refitting programme is probably necessary some time very soon. A virtually essential pre-requisite for any hotel room for me is that it must have air-conditioning. Given that many Travel Inn hotels are in high rise buildings, the windows seldom open for safety reasons. As a result of this, Travel Inns can be deathly places if the air conditioning isn’t working and I would always recommend that you check this out before booking in the Summer or you could live to regret it. The only other problem is that the air-conditioning units tend to be quite noisy, so you can’t sleep with them switched on anyway... Read review
