Great staff fabulous stay
Pros:

Lovely stay the team go above and beyond to help
this has to be one of the best premier Inn I've stayed in
The room was very clean and the food next door was lovely good value for money as I had the meal deal
Plenty of free parking very big car park just need to add your registration details at check in
The manager was hands on helping in all departments from checking in helping in Housekeeping to serving in the restaurant this just shows how much respect the team have for her seeing a manager work this hard motivates the team
Will definitely be returning

Not the best Premier Inn
Pros:

I stayed here two nights and although I like Premier Inn a lot I would hesitate to recommend this one. It's one of those first-generation Premier Inns with a separate Beefeater next door and feels more like a shared house than a hotel, by which I mean that it's quite small with creaky floorboards and thin walls so no one gets any sleep until everyone's gone to sleep. If you do stay here my top tip would be to bring a good pair of earplugs! It's not awful, it's just not quite as good as the more modern hotels. I think there's another Premier Inn in Llanelli and I don't know if that's any better but I will try that one next time. Just to add, this hotel is in a corner of a retail park which is a good thing or a bad thing depending on your point of view. Plenty of free parking.

The staff make this hotel special
Pros:

The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. The bathroom is well equipped and plenty of towels are provided. The room was spotlessly clean and nice and quiet. The hotel is near the M4 and a very short walk frrom Parc Y Scarlets, where we were watching a match. A short drive will take to the beach or Pembrey Sands. The free parking is a nice extra and there are plenty of shops near by including Morridons, the Range, Marks and Spencers and Asda Living. Caroline and Leah on reception made our stay very enjoyable and were happy to help us with any special requests. The restaurant staff were friendly and made our meal a lovely experience. Corrie was happy to help us make our order and was very knowledgable about the menu. The hotel is very good value for money and I would highly recommend staying here.

Hotel and restaurant review.
Pros:

My wife and I stayed at Premier Inn Llanelli on 19/20 September 2025 and had a vey comfortable experience. The hotel was very clean and our room was spacious.
We dined in the adjacent restaurant on the evening of 19 September and had a very enjoyable meal. During the meal all the staff were excellent but special mention for Korrie P who was cheerful, informative and extremely attentive to our needs. Well done everyone!

Outstanding service from the staff
Pros:

Stayed here while exploring the South Wales Coastline and had an absolutely amazing stay, The hotel itself is looking a little dated and could definitely do with a freshen up but what really makes this hotel stand out is the amazing service you receive from the staff, especially Phil he went above and beyond for us despite being very busy running a restaurant and reception desk, his knowledge of the gower peninsula was outstanding and he was able to point out many great locations to visit, he is a credit to your company, will definitely be staying here again in the very near future.

Soggy batter
Pros:

A great hotel. Friendly staff, very clean rooms and reasonable prices on food and drink. I had the mixed grill and it was well cooked, tasty and very good value for money. My wife had the fish, as did a person on the table opposite, and they bith had to scrape away the soggy batter - probably microwaved. Such a shame as everything else was first rate.

Bed for a weary tired traveller
Pros:

Arrived 1am, met by a human which is rare these days. Had a simple check in, given key and directions to room but wasn't told about breakfast (I was very tired so didn't think to ask). The bed as always was extremely comfortable. Let down by the towels in bathroom... Cardboard would be good description. Check out was simple, just drop the key and walk out.

Friendly hospitality
Pros:

During our two night stay we received friendly hospitality, Korrie was lovely and helpful. Our room was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Great communication before arriving vis email about the restaurant being re-done but that there would be no disruption to our stay or meal availability and everything went smoothly. Would stay again.
