One Small Suggestion
Pros:

Room excellent; nice bed, BUT in a very good shower there was NO GRAB HANDLE
Necessary as all users, old and young, can slip.

An most enjoyable 2-night city break
Pros:

Excellent city centre location. The lifts in the near by car park gave easy access to the central area, Cathedral, shops etc.

Great experience in Durham
Pros:

Just had a super weekend in Durham visiting our daughter at University. The hotel is in a great location, right in the middle of town. The rooms were clean and comfortable, great value, with easy access to parking nearby. Ella was especially helpful during our stay.

Lovely
Pros:

We stayed here for a few days very recently. The staff were super friendly and amazing. Despite it being in an entertainment area it was quiet, relaxing and near local attractions.

I’m not sure if we got a dodgy one but we both thought our bed was extremely firm and uncomfortable despite having a topper. We have stayed at another PI and that bed was like a cloud.

The only gripe I would have, and it’s not just this location, is not having individual pricing for breakfast, just all you can eat, I have an extremely small appetite and would only want a bowl of cereal or 2 slices of toast and I don’t want to pay £9 for that.

Cold room
Pros:

The room was cold, not unbearably so but not pleasant either. We turned the thermostat up expecting the room to warm up during the night but it was still cold.
I mentioned it at the desk in the morning, the lady just said we should have contacted them during the night so they could sort the problem. She wasn't interested didn't even take the room number to get it sorted for the next occupant. Very disappointed.

Poor check in experience!
Pros:

Awful check in with the two ladies in charge slow and unhelpful although appreciate a group wanting seven separate rooms and separate payments didn’t help!A machine not working so when the manageress turned up she said how easy was to sort and criticised her staff for not sorting it out !Both female staff when we got to finally check in were unhelpful in the extreme with our booking! the next morning the receptionist was totally helpful and sorted everything out!
The lady on reception was awful and her manager as bad!
Rooms good but breakfast slow and cooked not buffet so took for ever!

Excellent hotel, would recommend it.
Pros:

The location was excellent, half way between the station and the city centre. The room was spacious and clean, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. The selection of food available at breakfast was also very good and everything was fresh.

Average Premier inn stay.
Pros:

Chose a nights stay to explore Dundee as free breakfast was on offer and new premier plus rooms were available. Have stayed twice before in the past. Free parking though you have to register your car on checking in. Room as expected. Good size, comfortable bed. The only down side for me is that the plus rooms only have showers and this seems like a downgrade for me. Mirror , hairdryer set up , stool etc to get ready sort of feels like you are a mountain goat on a cliff edge.
Staff were all very pleasant and friendly.
Had a meal in the attached beefeater restaurant. This was fine and reasonable value if you use a buy one get one free coupon that are sent to me. Bit annoyed that my first choice of main meal was not available only to overhear the couple at the table beside us ordering the same meals within an hour later and they weren’t told not available etc!!
Breakfast was on a cooked to order basis and we had to select a time to eat which I’m not too happy about as you don’t know when you’re going to be ready to eat. Took ages for my order to be taken. My toast was made, cold and eaten before anyone came near to take our order for cooked food. Whilst not great for me it was okay and my partner said it was one of the best he’d had. Think they could do with one of the robotic carpet shampoo machines to clean the carpets in the restaurant during the night. Stains really not a good look.

Centrally located, great welcoming staff!
Pros:

What a fabulous Premier Inn! Centrally located, car parked for 3 days and with the voucher cost £24 - not bad for a city car park - and it was safe!
Chris, the duty manager, was wonderfully welcoming and on finding out it was our wedding anniversary, sent up a little gift! Breakfasts were superb and kept topped up. All staff were friendly and helpful. Our room 408 was spotless. Thank you - you contributed to a great city break.

ONLY WENT FOR FOOD .... NOT A NICE EXPERIENCE
Pros:

We did not stay there but only went for a meal . Curry too hot I could not eat it so only ate the chips, my hubbys Lasagna was not nice, he said the Lasagna sheets were soggy so not a good experience. I asked for a diet coke and was given Pepsi but when I complained she said I can get you something else so I ordered another soft drink, When she came back I was told it had been the last glass bottle of diet coke they had put in a Pepsi glass But when did a 200ml bottle of coke fill a 450 pepsi glass with about 3 tiny bits of ice. Never but I was charged for both and even though I had not asked for a reduction in any way but she said I cannot give you anything off your meal as the chef said he did not add anything to the curry. So I guess like the former owners it maybe comes in pre cooked sachets and is only heated up by the kitchen staff Starters were nice but over £54 for 2 people It was definitely not worth it Very disappointed will not be back We used to go there a couple of times a week.

Not great for business trips
Pros:

PI is very popular but I find it just isn’t great for business trips so generally try to avoid. Unable to check in 15 mins early unless I pay £15, woeful internet for teams calls even with a paid for upgrade, and an uninspiring fatty and sugary “continental” breakfast. No fresh coffee, bread, meats, cheese etc. Staff offered porridge on one the data though. Interestingly quite different to the continental offer in European hotels. The shower was fine though the single sheet toilet paper is an interesting choice.

The bed and staff were okay.

Helpful manager
Pros:

I want to highlight how flexible and helpful the hotel manager was, going over and beyond to accommodate. The premier inn hotels are always fit for purpose however this really stood out! Thank you!

Not the usual standard
Pros:

We booked a plus room. The extras were great. However the bathroom stank of urine and the fixtures were loose and sub standard. No attempts to put anything right, so glad we only booked 2 nights.

Nice evening meal, nice breakfast, Great STAFF!
Pros:

Just what we needed after doing the Great North Run. Special mention to the hotel manager SARAH. Who your staff said was the ‘BRAINS’ of the goodies for the runners. Thank you so much for that! We had fish bites and pizza for our evening meals ! Very tasty and efficent. Good service yesterday evening. Nothing was too much for the evening staff. Thank you Anthony and Shawnee for our breakfasts ! Mainly the poached eggs . Very tasty full English just what you need before a long drive home . Remember Anthony ! YOU’RE THE BOSS !

We will be back !!

Typical Premier Inn Experience
Pros:

Typical Premier Inn experience, room was good for the night, Food at the Beefeater was very nice, however if booking the meal deal be aware that there are a number of additional charges that are not shown on the menu download when booking, including paying extra for a pint of Guinness..... there were the obvious extras like a small premium for a sirloin steak, as I would have expected in reality, but why not show these on the download menu, however it was only a couple of pounds.
Overall satisfied with my one night stop over for business.
