Avoid. Must be better hotels nearby.
Pros:

Rooms dirty and smelly. Water kept leaking from somewhere in the bathroom causing puddles. Had to ask to have the sheets changed because stained. Cleaner don’t do anything. Mugs were not changed so we had to ask the grumpy lady on reception for more. Very rude stating we should have 4 people in a room when it was a family room booked for 2 adults and kids. Everything was too much trouble. Breakfast was cold.

Great check in experience! Thanks Sue
Pros:

Excellent stay at Premier Inn Lancaster! Thank you Sue (duty manager on reception) for such a welcoming and efficient check in.
The room was spotlessly clean and beautifully comfortable. We slept soundly after a long hard journey.

Comfortable but a bit Shabby
Pros:

The beds are as good as ever and we had a good night's sleep. Staff too are friendly and helpful. However the room itself, carpets and upholstered chair, lowered baths and toiletry bottles were looking decidedly shabby. We have been using this hotel on and off for quite a few years and although they have changed the communal areas, some effort needs to be put into the rooms.

Missing it already
Pros:

Lovely hotel, very clean and tidy. The halls were very quiet, with the windows shut you couldn't hear any traffic or outside noise, the room had black out curtains and the bed was very comfy so the sleep was amazing! The room we had was a premier plus so had a mini fridge, coffee machine, kettle, tea bags/coffee/coffee pods etc. Also had a TV so we could have easily hibernated for the week! We had breakfast each morning at the onsite pub place which was so nice, and we had an evening meal there too on one of the nights which was nice pub grub but they had lots of different options on the menu, I just really fancied some classic pub grub. Staff were all very nice and friendly. Just a perfect place to relax and recuperate.

Avoid
Pros:

Arrived a little early and had to wait to 3pm to check in woman said rooms were ready but its a strict 3pm policy unless you pay £15 would not pay £15 to enter the room 20 mins earlier which then causes a big queue to check in a the most smallest desk as the self check in queue was just as big and slow . Room was spacious for a family but we had no cold water all taps were running just hot not good when you need to make drinks so had to keep going to reception for them to give us cold pints of water . £5 to park the car for 24 hours worst premier inn I’ve stayed in with such miserable un friendly staff

Terrible bathroom
Pros:

Room 107 very tired bathroom. Toilet not properly fixed to the wall so wobbles about with every movement. Silicone seal all around the floor completely away from the wall. The floor had big dips in it where it was clear there had been leaks or water damage.

Great value
Pros:

Exceeded our expectations. Great value for money. One of the more modern premier inn's we have stayed at. Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was clean and comfortable, can't complain.

Car parking was easy and a big car park, not far out the city centre.

Spot on
Pros:

Located a fair stretch from town we were worried we would find this unconventional. However, the friendly staff gave us a map and told us about the park and ride bus. So we left our car at the hotel, safe, and caught the bus which is every 15 mins into the city. This saved us battling the one way system and a huge parking cost. So a great start!
breakfast was great as always, room was really clean and we had no disturbances through the night. Good value for money and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The atmosphere was friendly and we are already looking to rebook.

Great stay, highly recommend
Pros:

Stayed at Elland Road as it was the nearest option for the Leeds United game.

Bar was busy but had a really good vibe to it. Staff were really friendly and the room was spotless. Will definitely return when I next see Leeds play at home.
