Team very friendly, but it could all do with a bit of an update
Pros:

I was here on a business trip for a couple of nights. The reception team were always friendly, the rooms were clean, and spacious. The only negatives were that it did seem slightly dated. A simple refurb of the stair case would help with initial impressions. The only other issue was a slight damp smell. Next door there is a restaurant/ pub. Again the team were very friendly, service was quick and food was ok. Like the hotel, it could just do with some TLC as it also felt a bit dated.

Grime at its finest
Pros:

Came here for a one night stay and I wasn’t impressed . The room was extremely run down stains on the sofa chipped sideboard and not a reflective of the cost we paid for one night. We also had the breakfast added on! Well this was an eye opener to say the least kids running around cultures and plates sticky and dirty. The food was barely edible even when they brought fresh eggs and bacon out it wasn’t even luke warm. This place needs a revamp and the some new lamps on the food warmer !

A nice place to stay
Pros:

We had a great stay. The staff were friendly, the rooms were clean, and the breakfast was great. It was a perfect location for the event we were attending at Heaton Park. I think the people in the next room were smoking as we could smell it on and off throughout our stay, which was a little off-putting , but aside from that we were very satisfied.

Thank you Elena
Pros:

Elena was so welcoming.
Later in the evening I realised I had broken my charging cable and was unable to charge my work phone. (This was not ideal). I went down to reception to see if they had a cable I could buy?
Elena went above and beyond and found me a cable I could borrow. Great service!
I travel for work and stay in lots of premier inns, but this has to be the best service experience I have had so far.

Spent one night at this hotel. A really friendly receptionist who made us feel very welcome. The room, although not the biggest was clean and tidy. Bed as always, very comfortable. The shower was the best I've ever had in a hotel ( I like a good shower )

Excellent Receptionist!
Pros:

We arrived here really upset after being scammed on our,non-existent,booked accomodation.Luckily this Premier Inn was nearby.The receptionist was so helpful and kind.Sorry we didn't get her name but she was amazing and booked us in to the last available room at 6.30pm Friday 24th October and really calmed us down and relaxed us.
Everything else was fine and up to the dependable Premier Inn standards.Please pass on our thanks.

Great location for families and Co Op live
Pros:

We stayed as a family of 7 in 2 rooms for an amazing £90 for 1 night which included breakfast as we booked before 1st September.
Myself and 2 older daughters were going to see Benson Boone on Sunday 26th October. Very convenient location for Co Op live. Breakfast was superb and the hotel was quiet. Would definitely stay again for any future events at the Arena.

Half term stay
Pros:

Great location, discount for parking available, the rooms were clean and tidy the staff are friendly and helpful ,however the hotel could do with a refresh it’s looking tired some of the ceiling tiles in corridor were loose and cracked and looks like there may have been a leak at some point. Unfortunately the noise from the room above disrupted our sleep very heavy walking on and off all night. Didn’t feel safe either the room doors the lock didn’t feel secure even if it was locked The breakfast was lovely and located in the beefeater next door. We would stay again however we feel that the rooms need modernising and re decorated.
