Premier Inn Margate

If you don't mind it smelling of paint as your trying to fall asleep it's great but could do with them letting you know before the visit as it made me feel ill

Experience was terrible at the restaurant within the hotel - when we arrived, we said we had booked a table for 7pm for 7 people. The waitress had made a mistake when booking in, and the chef was so rude to her in front of us which was super unprofessional. He then stomped off and we were left to the table. Ordering drinks at the bar took 20 minutes! The waitress was making drinks one at a time which meant it’s so slow. We were then told it was a 45 minute wait for food, and there were hardly anyone eating in the restaurant. We then decided to leave and go somewhere else as it was such an awful atmosphere. Don’t come to this restaurant!

We were only there for the night, visiting family over the weekend. overall the stay was pleasant, the room was clean and very cosy, the restaurant was inviting and the staff were very nice. there was a good selection of food for breakfast. Oh, and onsite parking front and back which was handy. The hotel is situated in a good location, close to everything you need, station next door, opposite the beach, next to dreamland and all the shops and restaurants.

Staying at a budget hotel in Margate, my expectations were somewhat measured. However after leaving today I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised.

I will definitely be returning to this hotel.

Staff were attentive, friendly and always available.

Food was nice and tasty

Room was clean, spacious and well maintained

Overall very happy.

It's a Premier Inn, so you know what you are getting. The hotel is seconds from the train station and the beach. The staff were superbly helpful and friendly. The breakfast was fantastic. The bar was better than your average hotel bar, bit of a limited draft beer choice. Overall, highly recommended.

It was okay. Bed was comfortable.

Stopped for a couple of nights. The location was perfect for us right by the train station and a short walk to everything else in margate. We arrived a couple of hours before check in. Stopped in to ask if we could drop a bag and was told we could check in early for £15 so we did. The 2 women we dealt with were unfriendly bordering on rude. Had a room With a sea view but it was old and dirty and was in need of a refurbishment which seemed to be happening elsewhere around the hotel. Unusually for a Premier inn I also found the bed very uncomfortable. We had breakfast one day and again the too women seemed very offish towards us however they were chatting and friendly to the older clients. The breakfast was also only luke warm. On check out we dealt with a gentleman who was friendly and helped us store our bags for us. I didn't get his name but he seemed to be the only person we spoke to who knew how to smile and be helpful and friendly.

Not so happy with the cleanliness and the service. Not worth the money. Easy access to train station made it easy for last minute commute.

Perfect location to get out and about in Margate. From start to finish nothing was too much trouble. All staff were very welcoming and attentive, providing additional information about the area. We requested a quiet twin room which was arranged and this had just been renovated and was in perfect condition. Parking on site so easy to access. We would recommend.

Staying in this hotel represents great value for money. The room was very spacious and there was a nicely fitted bathroom with 'rain shower'. As the Premier Inn TV commercial with Lenny Henry suggests you can bank on a good night's sleep in the brand's beds, thanks to the amazingly comfortable mattresses. One of the highlights of staying here was the meal deals. I discovered some lovely pubs in Margate but not much choice when it came to evening food availability. This is where the Premier Inn excels offering a steak, dessert and pint at a deal price you won't find elsewhere. The hotel is only about five minutes walk from the centre of Margate and its long sandy beaches. For night owls like me you can pop out to a nearby Wetherspoon's pub (The Mechanical Elephant) for a late drink. Parking was free for me but paid parking for guests was being introduced during my three night stay and guests need to ensure on their day of departure they move their car from the hotel's car park by a fixed time to avoid a penalty charge. Full English breakfast fans will be in their element here though on busy days it may be best to avoid peak times during breakfast sittings. Overall there is a lot to admire about the Premier Inn brand.

We stayed here on
Monday evening having had to rush to
Margate hospital Sunday night due to a family emergency. We was looked after by Richard whom was one of the nicest, professional and most helpful person I have ever had deal with us in a long time. He could not help enough was lovely to talk to and made us feel better after what was a long night and day at the hospital. Premier inn this man is your greatest asset. Room was lovely food was great and we will definitely stay again. Thank you
Richard

Usual Premier Inn experience. All fine.
I’ve stayed here many timed, there have been some recent changed. Some of the rooms are now directly above the reconfigured bar, there are speakers in the ceiling of the bar, music from the bar can be heard in some first floor rooms. This problem was resolved by a the team member turning the music off.

We had a Premier Plus room which was comfortable and quiet. Excellent breakfast. 10 second walk from Margate railway station and plenty of parking. Lots of staff on duty in the morning and the place was busy - probably the top value place to stay in Margate. Only 2 years since it had a major refurb, so everything is shiny and new

The transformation of the Margate Premier Inn is quite extraordinary.
Was it the genius who designed the layout of the Ground floor Receptn / Rest? Maybe
Or was the improvements of the new rooms? Possibly.
Or is it the welcoming of all the helpful staff that seem to go out of their way to show that they seem really pleased to see you? Maybe
Or was it the new Manager, Bonnie Cooper that has injected something very special into the Margate Premier Inn? Most definitely
The staff and the guests all seem to be enjoying themselves. Well done Bonnie and thank you for making my stay

Location conveniently near train station. Atmosphere was friendly. Room was comfortable, quiet and very clean. We stayed on a Sunday night, which was very good value.

NO TO SELF SERVICE CHECK IN. Why do hotels have self service check in's? We didn't know what to do, so someone had to come from the bar (6 feet away) to help. What is the piont? So impersonal! The room was nice and new (previously the Brewers Fayre part on the building) but nowhere to put anything. We stayed here as has very early start on coach trip next day. When we looked to see about room service we found is had to be booked at the bar. Not very satisfactory. Had to try and dry towels, but nothing to dry them on. We needed more toilet paper and had to go to the crowded bar to ask. Very embarrassing. The whole thing was very impersonal.

Great stay from start to finish! Rooms weren’t ready clean and spacious! Comfortable sleep! All staff were welcoming and couldn’t do anymore for you! Location wise you couldn’t want nearer to the station and the beach and activities!

Very well placed next to the station and across the road from the bay. Very friendly staff and decent breakfasts. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Thank you Premier Inn, you rarely disappoint.
The adjacent car park was a bonus, especially as the machine was broken, so we parked for free.

The self-service check-in approach is appalling!
It's confusing, intimidating, and causes anxiety -especially when arriving late in the evening, tired and miserable and surrounding by other guests.
What happened to a traditional reception with a smiling face to greet you and check you in!

Bonny, Hayden and all staff were friendly and professional and working efficiently. Please convey our thanks to them.
Room was clean and tidy.
A safe place for tourists to stay.
