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... Read review

...HEATHROW PREMIER TRAVEL INN Premier Travel Inns Whitbread are the owners of Premier Travel Inn and they believe Premier Travel Inn offers the UK's best value for money accommodation, with rooms from around £50.00 per night. They claim that one of their hotels is within 5 miles of 75 percent of the UK population and that they not only provide great accommodation but also great food. All Premier Travel Inn's have a restaurant on-site, with most beside a Whitbread restaurant. The hotels are great for either business or pleasure and for business clients many of the hotels have on site meeting facilities. Premier Travel Inn is the UK's biggest hotel chain with over 480 locations across the country. They have more hotels in more places, making it easier for you to stay away from home and wherever you need to stay, at Premier Travel Inn you... Read review

Advantages: close to the motorway, cheap
Disadvantages: TOO close to the motorway!

...We have recently travelled up to Scotland from Devon and on the way home needed to break up the 12 hour journey. We stopped at Premier Travel Inn - Preston East. This Travel Inn is literally right beside the southbound motorway near junction 31a northbound. We were travelling Southbound, so had to come off at junction 31, join the northbound and come off at junction 31a. PRICE ++++++ We paid £48 for a room which is Friday to Sunday rates. Monday to Thursday would cost £51. BOOKING ++++++++ We had an AA Road Atlas with us and also a directory of all the Premier Travel Inn's in the country. This is a very handy booklet as it has directions and location for each Travel Inn. I telephoned the Inn and was put through to a central number as they were busy. They took a provisional booking and the Travel Inn called me back to confirm... Read review

Advantages: Good rooms and service
Disadvantages: Quite remote

...This is a step above most of the premier travell inns I have stayed at previously. The reception staff were friendly and helpful, dealing easily with around 20 of us arriving at once in less than half an hour. The rooms are fairly standar from PTIs, which on the whole is good all round. The bathrooms are especially nice with large baths (useful for us of the larger persuation) and everything laid out nicely. The cafe/resteraunt/bar area is nice and comfortable, definately better than most of them. the availability of a pool table and awell stoked bar was a nice addition over most hotels of this type. Breakfast was well stocked and of high quality all round. The hotel itself is quite remote to look at, but is within a few minutes walk of the Excel centre (which dominates the skyline), a very nice chinese resteraunt and two London... Read review

...The Premier Travel Inn County Hall London is in an ideal location for tourists. It's right next to the London Eye and the Thames as well as being close to the Houses of Parliament and many other attractions. We only stayed one night, but the Premier Inn offered just what we were looking for - a cheap stay but in a clean and good quality room and hotel. Our room cost £86.95 for a Saturday night stay in early October. As well as the bed, the ensuite rooms have a table and easy chairs, space to store your clothes, tea and coffee making facilities and a TV. There is also access to ironing facilities. Check-in was easy and checking out was also quick and simple. Although we couldn't get into our room until 2pm, there was no problem with leaving our luggage at the hotel. Breakfast was not included, but was available at extra cost... Read review

...With work I can end up traveling a fair bit and with premier travel inn being my companys choice of hotel, it was off for a few nights kip up in ayr! Ayr it's self is a wonderful place to visit, so I would definatly recommend the visit! Why not spend a few nights! and what better place than the premier travel inn! On the first night of my visit I arrived at around midnight, feeling very grouchy after a four hour drive!I'll be honest I was a little short with the gentleman behind the reception, however he was still extremely polite and very helpful and help me fill out all necessary paperwork/payment as quickly as possible. When I finally reached my room I was greeted by a luxury double bed! perfect nights sleep. The room also contained tee and coffee along with a selection of biscuits for me to nibble at. Decent size TV and good... Read review

...Premier Travel Inn is the result of a recent merger between the Premier Lodge and Travel Inn hotel chains. My partner and I were looking for a hotel in Liverpool city centre, close to the bars and attractions. Having made a reservation for dinner at Blue Bar & Grill in the Albert Dock, we made enquiries and were delighted to find that this hotel was only a few steps from the restaurant, and was available at a very reasonable nightly rate (approx. £50 per room per night). On arrival, we were greeted with Beatles music being played from the dock area downstairs, immediately reminding us of our location and creating a good atmosphere. The hotel reception was clean and the staff friendly and helpful. On-site facilities include a bar, restaurant and room service provision. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and represented...

...Sleep Tight at a Premier Travel Inn We decided to travel up to Rotherham Near Sheffield last month for my cousin's 40th Birthday party. This then left us with the agonising decision of where to stay the night. We wanted to be close to the party location and after searching through the internet to find the nearest hotel we came across the Premier Travel Inn on Bawtry road. We booked it all online, all very easy and simple. I decided to write a review on the Rotherham Premier Inn as my family were delighted with everything it had to offer. ************Premier Inn UK************** I'll give you a quick low down on the company’s Profile: The Premier Inn is part of the Whitbread Group PLC.

Advantages: Wherever you go in the country you should expect the same standard of accomodation and facilities.
Disadvantages: The quality of these can vary wildly!

...Once upon a time, these hotels were Premier Lodges and Travel Inns. Premier Lodges used to be owned by Scottish&Newcastle (brewers by trade) and Travel Inns by Whitbread (previously a brewer by trade, now more of a leisure provider). Premier Lodge and Travel Inn used to be the hottest competitors for the top spot in budget hotel chains, and Premier Lodge previously always won. Since Scottish&Newcastle has ceased to exist, all of its bars and pubs have been successfull in remaining pretty much whatever they were before, with the sale of each having little effect, while Premier Lodge, as the Company's only venture into the accomodation side of hospitality, was thrown into the lurch, which had a major effect on staffing, support system reliability (such as Head Office/food suppliers/staff payroll) producing a negative effect...
