Great customer service. Management need to spend some money on fittings
Pros:

Stayed before and after a trip to France. Thanks to Melissa who got us checked in politely and professionally when we arrived late and were very tired from our journey. Staff here are always high standard (unlike Oban P.Inn) and housekeeping do a great job of keeping this well used hotel (starting to show it's age now) clean. Hopefully Melissa gets involved in new staff training to bring them up to her own high standard of customer service.

Clean and comfortable
Pros:

Clean comfortable room with plenty of parking, excellent breakfast next door in the Beefeater. Only useless thing was the WiFi which didn't work at all.

Good value
Pros:

I'm a fan of Premier Inn's as I feel they offer good value, and this particular location reconfirms this. I was welcomed by friendly staff for an overnight stay. Breakfast is served in the pub next door, but I didn't use. The hotel entrance is a little outdated but it was clean. The room was a good size and was clean. Bed was very comfortable and the shower was brilliant. Great way to start the day! The downside was the outside noise. Walls seem to be thin so you can get disturbed sometimes. Overall, I would book this Hotel again.

Good budget accommodation with a well run and inexpensive restaurant on site
Pros:

Two nights away to visit RAF Hendon museum then Dover Castle, while at Hendon got a text saying our rooms at Premier inn (east Dover) were cancelled however shortly afterwards had a call to say we were rebooked into this hotel. The first morning we were given complimentary breakfasts and the second night a voucher for 25% off of our dinner.

Our stay at premier inn Dover (A20)
Pros:

Our stay at the Dover A20 was ideal for our visit to Dover castle. The room was all clean and comfortable. Parking on site and with the Beefeater restaurant next door for breakfast and evening meals was convenient . We was greeted at reception by Melissa who booked us in and was very helpful and pleasant she gave us information on our stay. We would use this Premier inn again if we visited Dover again.

Could have been better
Pros:

The rooms are spacious and tidy, good beds, but the toilet was filthy, there was no Internet service in the room that I was given and the Receptionist couldn'tdo anything about it. Receptionist could have been a bit friendlier and helpful. The car park was great, enough space to park and a secure barrier which needs a code to access. The food was ok but could have been better if it's prepared and readily available to be eaten when arrived without having to make an order through someone. Though it is eat as much as you can, placing order takes so long for the food to be prepared and seservedThus defeats the whole of eat as much as you can. The gentleman the was nicer. Overall, I was expecting better service that I had.

Pros:

Geräumiges ruhiges Zimmer. Kostenlose Parkplätze, super Lage, vor allem, wenn man von der Dover Fähre kommt oder am anderen Morgen übersetzen will. Das gleiche gilt auch für die Tunnelverbindung. Frühstück und Abendessen möglich. Würden wir noch einmal machen.

Late summer break
Pros:

A great hotel in a good position, quiet but easily found and not too far from Dover.
We had an easy check-in and the room was very clean and well presented when we opened the door.
Melissa, the receptionist, made us feel welcome and helped with a small problem which arose. Throughout our stay when she was on shift, Melissa was always pleasant and made us feel welcome. She is an real asset to your company.

Perfect place to stay overnight before crossing to France
Pros:

Only 20 minutes to the ferrys. Perfect beds, delicious food, free parking and very friendly staff. An employee prepares your breakfast fresh to order!

Comfortable night away.
Pros:

Was very comfortable, really nice shower, lovely welcome from staff. Smell of wet dog in reception was off putting but no sign of it in room. Great parking.

Excellent breakfast and service. I don't find the evening meals are the best but plenty to choose from and edible. Ordered two different cocktails both of which they didn't have the ingredients for. I was offered my third choice for free, so was kindly rectified.
