Friendly staff and clean room.
Pros:

Initial impressions weren’t great- dirty revolving door and reception tiles covered in leaves and debris.
However, very warm welcome by staff made me feel hopeful.
Took the unloved and unclean lift to the 5th floor where we entered our room.
All good here! Very clean. Super-comfy bed.
The curtains had a tear but served their purpose.
Can’t comment on food but suited us for a night in order to visit the Uni Open Day in Newcastle.
You get what you pay for which is a clean and comfortable room.

Good but cleaning needs attention
Pros:

I stay at Premier Inns very frequently and love this hotel chain. The Teams Valley Premier Inn has an in-house restaurant. Service and food were good. The Premier room was spacious with a fridge and coffee machine as expected. Cleanliness is most important to me. Unfortunately the furniture surfaces weren’t clean. They were dusty and the bedside tables had sticky stains. I had to wipe them down myself. At least the bathroom and the bed were clean. The cleaning team needs to pay more attention to the surfaces.

Very average
Pros:

2nd stay. Staff very friendly. Drinks expensive with very limited choice. Not a proper bar. Restaurant, poor quality evening meals. Breakfast, normal cheap stuff (awful scrambled eggs). If you stay here, go over the road to eat and drink. It’s better quality and cheaper.

Worth every penny! With first class staff!
Pros:

Alex really went the extra mile, and made my stay perfect!
I wanted to upgrade to the Plus room when I rang earlier, but understandably they were fully booked. The lady said try when I check in but there was no guarantee.
When I arrived Alex (with the help of a lovely lady I didn’t get the name of sorry)
had bit of wrestle with the system, but managed to override and get me upgraded.

For £15 a night it was worth every penny to have absolute tranquility on the top floor. Considering the hotel was full I only heard one door shut all weekend.
Also to have a fridge with water and a cheeky sweet treat was just the cheery on the cake. The hotel is so handy for local amenities and access to Newcastle. If I had been staying longer I would have love to have tried the unlimited Breakfast.

A genuine huge thank you to all of you! You should be proud of what you achieved on a daily basis.

Thank you and I promise to come back soon with the family and for longer

Disappointed with Service at Premier Inn Newcastle (Team Valley)
Pros:

I’ve been a regular customer of Premier Inn for years, but my recent stay at the Team Valley location was unfortunately the worst experience I’ve had.
We arrived late on Thursday and went straight to bed, only to discover sand in the bedding during the night. I reported this to the Duty Manager on Friday morning and asked for the bedding to be changed. When we returned around 5pm, the room hadn’t been cleaned at all.
Later that evening, I spoke to another Duty Manager, Harleen Sanghera, around 6:30pm and repeated my request to have the bedding changed. After returning from dinner at 9pm, we found that only one of the beds had been made—the second was left untouched. When I went down to raise the issue again, Harleen claimed I hadn’t asked for both beds to be changed, which was frustrating and frankly insulting. She then asked us to wait downstairs while someone came to fix it, but we were exhausted and declined.
Her attitude was surprisingly dismissive, and not what I expect from Premier Inn staff. This experience has made me question the consistency of service and staff training at this location. I hope Premier Inn takes this feedback seriously and invests in better staff development to maintain the standards loyal customers have come to expect.

Very pleasant 2 weeks stay at Premier Inn Team Valley, Gateshead, United Kingdom
Pros:

Surprisingly good location, no frills, wonderful staff, very attentive at all needs, all the time. Accessible bathroom met requirements, would have liked to have some more storage facility in the room and a higher and firmer bed mattress. Looking forward to additional stays whenever the opportunity arises.

There when you really need them.
Pros:

After a different hotel let us down my wife and I were overjoyed that premier inn was there to save the trip for us. Managed to book a room in minutes and spent 2 lovely days with them.
The staff were lovely, caring and asked us several times over the 2 days if we were alright after a disastrous friday let down by another hotel.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff
Pros:

I would like to say a big thank you to Nadine. We arrived and had two separate bookings that we wanted to merge, both different style rooms and the lovely Nadine sorted everything out for us. It was totally our mistake as we had booked the wrong rooms, but she managed to do it all for us and also sorted out our breakfasts, from a very misleading email from Premier Inn. Thank you once again Nadine and we hope to see you again on the return leg of our trip!

The good, the bad and the info
Pros:

The good:
- lovely staff
- fantastic service
- great restaurant, especially for breakfast

The bad:
- the lift and stairs are keycard locked
- the sink is terribly designed in a way that makes it hard to get your hands in the stream properly
- the bath is shaped in a way that makes your feet hurt if you stand in it to have a shower
- fixed shower head
- the sofas in the bar are a bit hard

The info:
- you might think based on the photo which shows the hotel being conjoined to a gym that gym access is included. It's not, and in fact the gym doesn't offer non-member access
- no laundry service
- the restaurant only has skin-on chips
- blinking LED on the smoke detector, very bright LED on the TV, both in view of the bed. If this keeps you awake like it does me and you don't have any tape or stickers to block them, the adhesive on the seals on the spare pillow bag is strong enough to do the job

Needs work
Pros:

Bedroom was find don't agree with asking for a room to be cleaned and the added extra you pay for in premium rooms only happens on first day. No air con in the rooms which ours was at 27.5 to 29 degrees in the evening so very hard to get a good night's sleep
