Great location, friendly staff, clean
Pros:

The location of this hotel is great. It was a 5 mins walk from Southwark tube station, its also opposite the Tate Modern meaning its a 5mins walk to the River. As soon as you walk in the downstairs area (The Social) is very clean and welcoming. Staff were very friendly, at check in and went we down for breakfast. The room was clean and spacious. Lots of information in the room regarding food/offers/how to use the heating system etc! We chose the continental breakfast in the morning and there was more than enough variety and lots of space to sit. Would definitely use this hotel again.

OK....but
Pros:

We arrived at 10am and left our details and suitcases. When we arrived back at 3.45pm our room still wasn't ready, which was pretty disappointing when we had booked well in advance. We had been walking for 5 hours and really wanted to relax.

We were offered a complimentary drink, which was appreciated.

When we got into the room approximately 4.20pm there was only one set of towels. We asked for another set and had to chase up, as they did not arrive.

Overall, the room was very nice. Hotel staff were great and it is a good location for Borough Market and central London.

The PI hairdryers have improved and I understand why you fix them to the wall.....but it's hard trying to dry your hair with a dryer that only reaches 2ft.

We couldn't get the heating to work, so pretty chilly in the room.

All in all, not bad for a budget hotel in London.

À very cozy stay, comfy beds and impeccable cleanliness.
The staff members are supportive and friendly. Both breakfast and dinner menus were varied and had lots of healthy options. Viennoiseries always freshly baked. Calm even though the location in the middle of all touristy attractions.

Good location good friendly staff but needed a good clean , this hotel is tired.
Pros:

We stayed for a couple of nights in a family room. The room was fine albeit the shower leaked very badly. There is no way this was not known already as the water damage had been there for a while. The public spaces were very tired the lifts had damaged buttons that were fixed by duct tape.

It’s clear that the cleaning time is focused on the rooms but there is not sufficient time for the other areas.

The staff were excellent, could not fault them. Having stayed in another Premier Inn recently it’s apparent that the business model is at fault and not the staff.

Premier Inn was once my go to as you knew what you were getting, unfortunately know it appears I still know what I am getting for the wrong reasons.

Premier Inn Tate Modern
Pros:

Naturally with London there were plenty of Premier Inn options to choose from. And I'm glad we picked here! The location was great, a short walk you were either at Tate Modern, The Shard, Borough Market or Southwark Station. We had a Premier Inn Plus room and it was modern and very clean. The staff as well were friendly. Next time I visit London, I would happily stay here again!

Same warm welcome from the staff. Very friendly for a London hotel.
This hotel is spotless. The food and drink deals are exceptionally good value for London.
We stay when we visit The Globe, its literally a short walk. I can't fault this hotel. Can't wait to return.
