Fab modern hotel in excellent location on Trentham estate
Pros:

We visited this hotel for a Christmas shopping weekend and had a fabulous time. The rooms have had a make- over since we last visited and were very modern. Ours had a fantastic bathroom with walk-in shower. The hotel is situated on the Trentham estate, and we were able to walk to the shopping village, garden centre and winter light trail within a few moments.
Buffet breakfast the next morning was great, with plenty of food options, regularly replenished, one of our better premier inn experiences.
There is also a great feee car park.
We love this hotel and look forward to our return,

Upsetting
Pros:

The premier inn was clean . The room we stayed in was on the ground floor facing the road behind the trees but it was still noisy which can’t be helped . We decided to pay for breakfast as we was stopping over night . Oh my god wish we hadn’t now . We was told the table over there by the pillar After a while I just moved as both me and hubby are tall and we was very cramped. I went to get a cooked breakfast it was baked up and most of it was slopped on the counter.The toaster kept burning the toast in the we had a cup of tea and left and had are breakfast in the shopping village . I was really upset about

Mixed feelings
Pros:

The premier inn plus rooms were very nice.
No complaints here at all.

What I did find very disappointing were the staff. Customer service was very poor. Especially those taking care of the bar / restaurant. So slow , not a care in the world.

2 male staff were awful. Might as well call one KitKat as he was always on a break. The other ET as he looked like he wanted to go home.

Even when I finished breakfast in the morning no one said good bye even from reception. I understand this is a budget hotel but cmon you can do better.

Very poor
Pros:

No hot food. Which was the main reason to go. Wasn't even told. Only upon walking to the room did I learn the kitchen was closed.
Very poor.

Brilliant 🙌
Pros:

Really enjoyed our stay, drove up from Kent to a nice clean, large family room, looked like a premier plus room which we didn’t book, room 14, the kids loved it, including the purple light in the bathroom, the location was perfect, free parking, shops right outside at Trentham Gardens, a huge garden centre, restaurants. We had nice breakfasts, help yourself buffet, kids ate free, staff were good, All in all we had a great stay ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hotel good, food bad
Pros:

Premier staff were very friendly and helpful. We are at the thyme bar and grill which was terrible. I think my wings were deep fried for 30minutes too long, salad had been kept under a hot plate so had wilted. Wont be eating at the thyme again

Pros:

I did not use restaurant. Although i did use Latte coffee machine 👌.
Room was comfortable, bed extremely so👌. All room facilities were great.
Staff very friendly & helpful.
As a solo traveler i felt safe.
Parking the only issue due to its proximity to Trentham Garden, restaurants & shops. People openly parking in hotel parking spaces & walking over to the shops.

Great location for what we wanted; to visit the wonderful Trentham Gardens. Hotel was busy without being crowded and our room was spacious and comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful.

All good - special mention for Marjorie!
Pros:

Decided to stay here to break up the journey back home from Dublin as I was feeling tired. Everything was good but have to give a special mention to Marjorie who is an absolute star. Breakfast was busy, but Marjorie was very friendly and super efficient - a real asset to Premier Inn
