Comfortable and convenient
Pros:

Great location a few min walk from airport with great transport links. The room was a good size and comfortable. There were extra pillows, a vending machine, parking, and luggage storage. Check in is at 3pm, and we were able to check in at 2:30, and check out is 12pm, leaving time for a lie in.

Pros:

Hotel was okay but let down by it's facilities. TV didn't work for the 2 nights I was there despite reporting it. I was given a replacement remote control on 2nd night which still didn't turn on the TV.

Chaotic check-in
Pros:

Chaotic check-in. One machine out of order, another would not process the reservation, leaving staff to handle a very long queue, while guests waited in a tatty reception area. On the plus side, the room was OK, and the breakfast excellent.

Overview of the week
Pros:

We booked in 03/11/2025 and left 09/11/2025. The room was clean but dusty in some areas, the mattress was very stained.
The food has been very nice both for breakfast and evening meal. The downfall fall of the week was the process/service of how the evening meals have been.
On Monday the dessert order was lost so had to re order as well they didn’t have all the items on the menu
Tuesday we booked a table for 18:00 but nobody came to serve us until 19:15
Wednesday our mains order was lost so had to re order after a 45 minute delay
Thursday they forgot my kids order leaving us to wait for his to come and our food was cold
Friday my mains order was wrong (I wanted pizza with 3 toppings but when my order arrived I had different toppings that requested)

I think Saturday was the only day everything seemed to have gone as expected.

My only other complain was on the Sunday morning the fire alarm went off at 06:00, upon speaking to reception I was told it was a false alarm however it went on for 45 minutes.

I would like to mention that Jason our server for the majority of the days had good customer relations, remembered our faces after a couple of nights service. You can definitely tell he is trying to please everybody but possibly too much work for what seems like 1 server. I would recognise him to be an asset to the business.

I would like to compliment Karen I believe her name was (worked on the breakfast side of things), had conversations with us daily, remembered my sons name and played with him(he is 4 years old)

Pros:

As always the staff in the restaurant especially Jason is so obliging and always goes above and beyond. New menu was a pleasant surprise. Southampton airport Premier Inn is always my go to place for a business trip and never disappoints.

Disgraceful Call Centre Staff when faced with a complaint with this hotel.
Pros:

Re-write of my last review which seems to have been removed ?? Possibly due to photos I included of the lorry at 05.56am
Stayed a night at this hotel, Saturday to Sunday. Rudely awoken by a HGV at 5.30am who proceeded to manoeuvre out of carpark with reversing bleeping and shouting to his banksman. This continued for well over 35 mins including the time the driver sat in the lorry warming up his engine.
I sent a complaint to Premier Inn and followed up with a phone call as they failed to reply …… lady on phone at call centre was unhelpful to the point of saying “any disturbance from outside the hotel (even in their own carpark) is NOT A COMPLAINT THEY CAN OR WILL DEAL WITH. The driver and lorry were staying at the hotel….. Quite frankly Premier Inn do not give a damn about a good nights sleep, despite all their adverts on television saying to the contrary. LENNY HENRY WOULD NOT HAVE SLEPT FITFULLY AT THIS HOTEL..
**** Receptionist, Jacqui, was incredibly helpful and very apologetic. Shame the call centre staff couldn’t go to the same Charm School.
