Had an amazing stay at this Premier Inn in Nov. 2025 for a work trip. Briony and her team including Elaine and AJ were proper kind and super helpful. The breakfast was top notch and the room spacious and quiet all night. And the shower was very enjoyable. 11/10 highly recommended.
I arrived at 2am after working a night shift. The card coder machine would not work to give me a key when I got there and the lady behind the reception was fantastic. She immediately identified I was tired so she walked me up the stairs and opened my room saying that she would put a card under my door ready for the morning once she had managed to get the card machine up and running. She was very good ambassador for your hotel. I asked the ladies name in the morning and was told her name was Jo.
Everything I needed in the room and a great breakfast
Good location for the training course we were on also a great Pub one minutes
Great value
Staff helpful and friendly
Many thanks
This hotel is in a great location, just off the M1 but far enough that we didn’t hear any traffic noises inside the building. The staff were excellent, the room was spacious and very comfortable, and the breakfast was outstanding!
Well-appointed bedroom and bathroom, comfortable bed, excellent breakfast cooked to order, great vfm. Extra characters.
Comfortable stay in an accessible room at this Premier Inn. We have an Assistance Dog so we chose Wakefield South for walking access to river walks for the dog.
I have stayed at this Premier Inn many times in the past four years. This was the worst ever stay. The mattress was worn out springs coming through and dented. There was no comfortable sleeping position and I didn’t sleep. The soundproofing in the room was complete rubbish and I could hear everything the neighbours were saying and their telly up until about midnight .
I have tried to raise the issue with the customer satisfaction team a very confrontational young man who basically said that because I didn’t get up in the middle of the night go downstairs in my pyjamas to clean to the front reception, but it is all my fault as when booking it I’d signed up to their good night guarantee and that’s what it says in there.
Just stayed in the next evolution style room,it was a beautiful 1 night stay and they were nice enough to give us 3 beds when we only booked 2.Would 100% be staying here again
Good location with a breakfast room and the staff were so helpful, our room 104 was a family room but a little on the small side but very modern with a fantastic shower room, no bath.
Staff are excellent, very obliging. Rooms clean and tidy especially as cleaning staff had to carry all equipment up the stairs as the lift was not working.
Breakfast was excellent as were catering and waitress staff so kind, considerate taking into account individuals requests and special requirements. Nothing was too much trouble. It’s a pity the Red Kite restaurant/pub next door doesn’t match in any way the high standards of food etc. of the Premier Inn Wakefield.
Typical Premier in but the the receptionist, Louise went the extra mile to elevate the experience to 5 star stay. Found the hotel quiet despite being full.
Great break, Sue on reception was exttremely helpful solving a booking issue we had and made sure everything was sorted for us and couldn't do enough to help, really friendly, beds very comfy, food good
Not a lot you need to say about Premier Inns as they're all much the same - which is their appeal to me. This one is well located for Wakefield and The Sculpture Park. It doesn't have aircon which means in the summer you need your windows open - and the deliveries at 06:00 will wake you up.
Red Kite pub next door is ok for a drink but not too good for food - if you can manage a 10 minute walk, the Swan and Cygnet is a better option.
Impressed with this hotel. Convenient situation, spotlessly clean rooms, excellent breakfast and very friendly staff who made time to answer my granddaughter's many questions.
After arriving here last night at 9pm I found I'd booked the wrong date & in fact I was a day early !! I wasn't quite sure what I could do as I needed a bed for the night.. Jane was on reception & reassured me that she would find me a room. She was extremely patient & somehow managed to bring my booking forward to the night I turned up & the bonus was it was all done without any extra cost... Thank you so much Jane for your help...
We stayed in a family room for one night, the room was spotless. Plenty of room lovely comfy beds and lovely big bathroom. We had breakfast the staff were very pleasant and plenty to eat and drink. We were visiting cannon hall farm and it was only a short car journey away. Nice and near plenty of places to eat
Elaine serving breakfast was the nicest! Put a massive smile on my daughters face with her lovely complement. Breakfast was extra yummy too.
Great hotel. Really well situated. Quiet. Mostly friendly staff. Had continental breakfast which was good, chef friendly too. Just a lovely premier inn. Location is great for Leeds and motorway too.
As always expected premier + room clean and comfortable. Staff helpful and friendly. Excellent breakfast and staff..
