So welcoming - even at 2am
Pros:

We got stuck on a shut motorway for 3 hours. (Obviously my heart goes out to anyone involved in the accident, and their needs are far more important than ours.) Luckily we had booked Premier Inn for an overnight stop and they promise a 24 hour check-in so we didn't need to worry about the extra time waiting. And sure enough when we did arrive at 2am they were incredibly friendly and efficient. Hugely appreciated.

Good Experience
Pros:

Contracting away from home, the hotel is very clean and well presented rooms. At evening time the hotel is very quiet.
The Roebuck next door serves very good quality food and breakfast is good. Ann and the other staff members give outstanding service.

Good Hotel shame about the breakfast
Pros:

The Premier Inn was really clean & the plus room was well equipped. The rooms were nice and dark at night and quiet. Perfect location to stay when visiting our friends & Barton Grange with good easy access to main roads. The car park has plenty of free space.
However, the breakfast was not good in an adjacent chef and brewer. The pub needs a deep clean, lots of dust and was grubby. The crockery had clearly been through a dishwasher but not checked and was put out still dirty. There were no tongs to handle food with and also food listed not available e.g maple syrup and blueberry muffins, as well as the coffee not coming from a machine but from flasks which meant that it was hot as it should be. It's definitely not worth the money. In fact, I would question there hygiene rating based on what I observed.
I would definitely stay at the hotel again, but not have breakfast at the pub.

Mixed visit
Pros:

Room was absolutely fine; comfortable and clean and what you would expect from a premier inn.
We arrived quite late due to travelling for six hours and we received a frankly cold reception from the staff member on duty; no information given about breakfast, not even vague directions to our room and a general unfriendly disposition.

Preston North is a good place to stay
Pros:

A great stay for the night we were in Preston visiting family. The hotel is quiet and well-appointed, but handy for the main A6. Rooms were comfortable and not too hot (a frequent Premier Inn problem) - windows opened to provide plenty of fresh air. Breakfast, served in the adjacent Roebuck pub, was the best Premier Inn breakfast I have had in many visits across the country.

DJ is an asset
Pros:

DJ on reception made our stay a delight. Comfortable bed and newly refurbished rooms were very relaxing. The Roebuck pub next door is a charming country pub with a good choice of food.

The hottest hotel we’ve ever stayed in
Pros:

Our room was so hot that it was practically unbearable. In the morning, when it was at its coolest, the room was 29 degrees. Didn’t sleep well at all due to the temperature, even with an extra fan that we requested. and when raised upon checkout (after previously raising the issue) we were told we should have paid extra and booked a premier plus room as they have air-con. A disappointing response.

Nice hotel
Pros:

This Premier Inn has been recently refurbished, so the rooms/bathrooms are of a good standard. WiFi was very slow, and not much phone signal. We didn't have any issues with parking, despite being told by reception that the hotel was fully booked.

Be aware that the usual Premier Inn breakfast offering is not an option here. It is not made clear on the website that the restaurant next door is not owned by Premier Inn, and when we arrived we were told we couldn't have breakfast there as we hadn't booked in advance - this has not been the case at other Premier Inns we've been to, where you can turn up any time in the morning and pay. We were recommended some other local restaurants to try, but they were far more expensive than the Premier Inn offering!

Unlimited brekky...no chance here. Lucky to get any brekky.
Pros:

Room good but could do with proper air conditioning.
Main problem was the restaurant. Service was very slow and the drink that I ordered didn't appear. To be fair they didn't charge me for it,
Breakfast service was appalling. One person having to check people in, replenish the already depleted buffet, and after a very long wait actually serve. Certainly no "Unlimited brekky" here...it was "Tell me what you want and that's what you get".
No chance of any end.
Do yourselves a favour, avoid the restaurant and go somewhere else.

A Good Premier Inn
Pros:

I stayed one night solo in June.

Easily found with plenty of parking in a quiet location close by the canal with some pleasant walks.

Friendly and efficient staff throughout.

Well up to Premier Inn standards - clean and comfortable.

No aircon and limited window opening make for a warm room. No lift to first floor for those with mobility problems.

The adjacent Chef & Brewer offers decent food and decent prices with friendly staff.

Excellent value.

Perfect stay !!
Pros:

One of the best Premier Inns we have stayed at and we’ve stayed in loads. We had a disabled room and a double room and both were very well kept and clean throughout. The area was so quiet and really lovely with the canal just across the road. Staff were friendly and helpful, if only all Premier Inns were like this one !!!

Good room shame about the pub
Pros:

Preston North has been recently renovated and the rooms are very comfortable and clean. The new walk in showers are a big improvement.
We were aware that this property doesn’t have air con, but they do provide a fan which was welcome in the recent hot weather.
Friendly staff and a warm welcome.
Only disappointment was that after arriving at 2130 after a long hot drive, you’d expect to be able to get a pint in the attached pub, however the pub had closed up by the time we had dropped our bags and that was only 10 mins later.
Lucky there’s The White Bull over the road which was open and served up a refreshing pint after a long day on the road.
