- milesfb (2/5): Room 40 Is a cesspit! Mould Mildew and Damp! - I stayed at this hotel about a year ago and I'm convinced this time around they gave me the same room a last time, room number 40. The moment I stepped in the room on this occasion it reminded me of the previous occasion. It absolutely stank of mold, mildew and damp!. Also, the ventilation fan in the bathroom made a very high-pitched whirring sound which drove me scatty after being in the bathroom for more than 5 minutes or so. I went down and complained and the maintenance man came up and managed to switch the fan off for me. But complaining about the stench, the receptionist couldn't do anything and said the whole hotel was fully booked. The this I found hard to believe given it was mid-november. So I do not recommend you stay at this hotel at all. It's utter crap!
- Escape04012376798 (10/5): lovely - rooms were lovely and clean, had a yummy breakfast across the road.
staff were so lovely and kind, even did the raffle in the main entrance
- F8214WXmichaelp (2/5): Stinking Body Odour Bed Linen - Stinking Body Odour Bed Linen.
After driving late to hotel was looking forwards to chilling out and having a good night's sleep, oh was I going to be disappointed.
After settling down to sleep I was woken by a foul smell of BO sweat as I snuggled into the duvet.
This ruined my whole night's sleep as could do nothing to change the situation as my family were sound asleep.
Checked in morning to see what smell was and found a stinking sweaty mattress protector. I complained to reception and they said they could do nothing and I had to make a formal complaint on website.
I did ask what policy was for changing mattress protector and was told this was changed every 28days. Receptionist would not say when my rooms cover was last changed other than she would speak with housekeeping.
Honestly the stench was awful and smelt of stale BO.
I have raised a complaint with Premier Inn.
- I6295SRshirleyo (10/5): Excellent service - Excellent food,,very happy so friendly. is so nice would recommend going there really good value for your money.xxxxx
- Snowbelle18 (10/5): Long term stay. - Lovely size room.
Rooms are cleaned regularly, and to a good standard.
Easy to find.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, and go above and beyond.
- T4714AJmilanv (10/5): Really impressed - I stayed in this hotel recently with my husband whilst visiting family and was welcomed by a warm receptionist called Rachel. She was very polite, friendly & made us feel very welcome as did the other staff during our stay. It was a really good experience for us. The room was really clean, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was lovely too. I would recommend this place as somewhere to stay if in Boston or surrounding areas and highly recommend. Thank you to all the pleasant staff for doing such a great job
- dianarZ5849FX (6/5): Nice hotel shame about the bad food ..., - shame about the bad food hotel rooms smelt damp entrance carpet could do with a clean on check in the staff was not very good but in the evening , the staff was lovel
- robertbN6001AW (10/5): Great service - The staff here are the best they go out of there way to make sure you are happy and OK. We had a breakdown and I was soaked grrr the rain. But the staff made sure we were OK and even waited till I got back so I could have a meal. 5 star service particularly the receptionist who was on duty well done team
- 158neilb (2/5): Horrendous - Horrible experience.
On check in the receptionist was short-tempered and made me feel like i was an inconvenience. She raced through the check-in process and when asked a question, her tone was very dismissive, which wasn't a good start.
Then upon arrival at my room, i didn't notice at the time but it wasn't a 'Premier Inn' room, and it certainly wasnt what is shown the images. No Premier Inn branded bedding, or curtains. The room looked like a cheap guest house. The bedroom and bathroom are in need of a refurb as they looked very dated and worn.
Dinner at the brewers Fayre was awful, it took forever waiting to be seated as they were understaffed and then when i was the table was dirty and sticky. The food didn't improve things, the chicken tenders were good but there was no salad or garnish so just a sea of beige. The fish and chips arrived and there was a smell of silage. I dont think it was from the meal it could have been the carpet, or the table next to me biut that didn't make for an enjoyable meal. The fish had been cooked before, then re-heated as the batter was all soggy and not crispy as if it had been freshly cooked. The chips had and the garden peas were all overcooked and mushy which was annoying as i opted for garden peas and not mushy peas.
Terrible nights sleep as the mattress and pillows were really uncomfortable, then 5am im woken to banging and crashing followed by revving engines. i looked out my bedroom window and see two vans being loaded up with overnight bags and guys in hi-vis jackets chatting loudly to each other. So that was me awake.. cheers...
Breakfast was good, and the staff were really friendly and attentive so at least that helped improve my day before the long drive home.
On checkout the receptionist asked if everything had been ok with my stay and i told her it wasn't, as i'd had an awful nights sleep and got woken up at 5am by two vans revving their engines and banging and crashing out the front of the hotel and she replied " Oh there's nothing i can do about that" as she got up disappeared out the back....
So would i stay here again, maybe. If you refurb the hotel and Brewers Fayre and sack the management as they are seriously neglecting things here. This is the worst Premier Inn i have ever stayed in. With Premier Inn, you are led to believe that things are uniform, with premium bedding, premium bathrooms and a premium stay.
I chose this site rather than cheaper independent hotels for just that and i feel really let down. The reception team are a joke, what i want to say to them is "If you don't like the job, leave... and go get one you enjoy as this clearly isn't the job for you and you're making it known to the customers"
- E2576CDmariob (10/5): Hotel - The best hotel and their breakfast is stunning. Looks clean and with the best standards . One of the best feature is that there is a pub near by
- Meander47573244748 (10/5): Great, affordable hotel - 5/5, I recommend staying at this hotel, lovely staff and the room was clean. The location is also ok, a 3 min drive to town centre. The price was great, we will definitely be back next time! :)
- spirop341 (10/5): Exceptional compassion and customer service - I want to give a huge thank you to the team at Premier Inn Bodmin, especially Megan and the reception staff. I had to cancel my stay at short notice due to a family emergency, and despite my booking being non-refundable, the team went above and beyond to show genuine care and understanding.
Their compassion, empathy, and willingness to help during such a difficult time truly meant a lot to me and my family. It’s rare to find this level of humanity and kindness in customer service these days.
I can’t thank them enough for their professionalism and thoughtfulness, it really made a difference. I’ll absolutely be staying with Premier Inn again in the future, knowing that there are people like this behind the desk.
Thank you, Bodmin team, you’re a credit to the Premier Inn name.

- THATFOODIEMAN (2/5): Not the Premier Inn I have come to expect - It is ironic that I should write this review at a time when "The Times" newspaper asks if we are falling out of love with Premier Inn. I have seen a gradual decline in standards over the last couple of years. First impression of this place which is out of town on a trading park was that it was a dismal sight which could do with a lick of paint. Inside was no better, it is very tired and only the receptionist made it welcoming. The walk down the corridor to my room did little to cheer me, again a lick of paint ...probably a day's job would make all the difference. The carpets were in dire need of an introduction to a carpet shampoo, again a day's job.
My room was just as dismal and there was rubbish on the floor, the security lock did not turn and laminate was peeling off the desk which could have been quite dangerous if you snagged yourself.
I had a small meal in the restaurant which had to be sent back because it was cold.
I had booked this hotel based on an offer of a free breakfast but to add insult to injury the kitchen staff hadn't turned into work and there was no breakfast before my taxi arrived for the trip to the station.
Now I am a pragmatic chap not usually given to complaining but I did point out these issues to Customer service and trusted that my missed breakfast would be attached to a future booking that I had. I received what I consider a most patronising response and a flat refusal to honour the obligation of their offer. In short they made a bad situation worse with the upshot being that I have booked a further 8 nights with another chain at a loss to Premier Inn of approximately £650
Yes, I for one have fallen out of love with Premier Inn.
- ToniW-B (8/5): One of the better Premier Inns - We like Premier Inns, we have stayed in several and some are great, some not so great. Boston is in the "Great" category! We always read reviews and were somewhat troubled by previous visitors opinions of the hotel. However, we found almost everything was spot on.
The hotel is well situated, easy to find and the car park spacious if a little haphazard.
The welcome was warm and friendly as were all the staff throughout our stay. The room a delight and spotlessly clean as was the bathroom. Yes, the carpet on the stairs could do with a clean, but everything else was in good order!
The Beefeater for breakfast was busy, but the food delicious! Thank you Premier!
- dozyblondecow11 (2/5): No room at the inn!!!! - Booked a room on the day, as mum is in a hospice. Turned up.and spent half an hour trying to book in, the receptionist went off to try to find a room and we ended up with non. I had a child with me and bed for the night. The staff were unable to give me a refund and I was told a manager would call me the next day. We were left with nowhere to go, the phone call never came and at the hardest time in life I had to chase the money. Multiple calls to the hotel and a 40 minute call to the help line to get the money back. No sorry or compensation for the petrol used to get to the hotel. SHOCKING!
- Culture56470411742 (10/5): flabbergasted (in a good way) - this hotel was absolutely flabbergastingly spectacular. Nothing beats a stay in a purple palace (my nickname for premier inns).
- darrenlT1482UQ (10/5): Fantastic - I’d like to highlight Jane on reception, an absolute angel, kind and helpful I couldn’t have wished for a better welcome
- G779WQjamesa (8/5): Good value for money. - Nice clean comfy rooms. No bar in hotel but Brewers Fayre next to hotel served nice food and drink at a reasonable price. Nice and quiet during the night.
- 54celiaj (10/5): We will be back - The whole experience was easy to arrange, place was easy to find. Looks a bit run down from the outside, needs tarting up a bit.
Inside was very clean, polite staff, very friendly. Warm welcome was much appreciated. The rooms we booked were perfect. No complaints from us. The beds are amazing. We slept like logs.
Breakfast was very good. Enough choices to suit everyone. The food was nicely cooked and presented.
We felt sorry for the lovely guy who was organising everything. He was working so hard. He could have done with at least 2 more staff. 1 to carry out and 1 to clear tables. There was also a lady who was carrying out. She was friendly and helpful.
It was a lovely 2 night stay and we will be back
- lukec935 (10/5): Premier Inn Boston - Lovely hotel situated off the main Wainfleet road with public transport easily accessible nearby. Half an hour walk into Boston. Despite no air conditioning it felt quite cool with the fan and food was delicious from Beefeater next door
- N4024BFelizabethc (6/5): Was clean - Room was ok, but not the best, stayed in lots of premier inn’s, but this was the worst, it was clean, but very dated. Had breakfast, but they had air conditioning on at full blast, which was not needed. It was not that warm, out. Was warmer outside than the Brewers Fayre. It was convenient for one night has near to the hospital. The premier in definitely needs updating, and perhaps premier plus rooms. Lady on reception when arrived, was not that helpful, has we did not know how to use the vending machine, I don’t think she liked being disturbed. When we checked out, no one said did you have a good nights sleep. Not the friendliest we have been to.
- martinmT9222ZG (6/5): Hotel good, Table Table poor. - Hotel accommodation was as a good quality as expected from Premier Inn for the price point.
The adjacent Table Table bar and restaurant is very tired in appearance, under staffed resulting in slower service but the staff did their best with so few of them working on the night. Limited drinks options available on real ale beer, and both the bar and restaurant closed at 9pm which was extremely disappointing when our arrival time was 7.40pm
- 281herrm (8/5): Very nice, clean & helpful. - Very clean, staff was warm & welcoming & very helpful & kind towards me so a very pleasant experience Thank You. Only downside I thought rooms were a little over priced.
- quan2cks (4/5): Will never return - Situated within a small retail area with a large ASDA, KFC, B&M and Farmfoods. On arrival, we were treated to the full Premier Inn welcome by a friendly receptionist. To be honest, I cannot recall any problems with this brand.
Rm 28 is first floor, no lift facing out to the back, no Air-conditioning but you can partly open the window and a fan is provided.
All in all, Premier Inn has the same rooms and standards all around the country. The main reason we chose it was for the convenience, free WiFi and the adjoining restaurant called the Callywith.
The Callywith has an internal entrance off reception so you don't get wet.
See my review of the Callywith, as we will NEVER RETURN here and revert to the Travelodge at Roche, just down the road with an adjoining pub, even if we need to pay for the WiFi
- georgebU5100AR (8/5): One night - This was a pleasant one night stay. The staff were helpful, Very easy check in.
Noted the building is a bit dated and could do with a refurb, Overall a pleasant stay.
- Q2897CZlornab (8/5): The staff are a credit to the company - We had a comfortable stay at the Premier Inn Bodmin, with a delicious breakfast. I would mainly like to compliment the excellent staff who dealt with the issue of my husband leaving behind his suit in an extremely friendly and efficient manner. Particular thanks to Dianne, and also the receptionist (my apologies for not knowing your name) who took the trouble of taking the suit to the post office, on receipt of suitable, post-paid packaging. Both are a credit to the company.
- SaxonMan (6/5): Stiflingly hot room. - A standard Premier Inn hotel located next to an Asda supermarket. A bit tired looking from the outside.
Very pleasant welcome and check in. But our stay overnight was disappointing.
The outside air temperature when we stayed was around 16c and yet the room temperature was a stifling 25c all night long and with no way to reduce or control it. Even the public corridors were cooler. It was like trying to sleep in a sauna.
- WanderlustHols (8/5): In A Great Location For Exploring Bodmin - My husband, daughter & I stayed at this Premier Inn in Bodmin for 1 night back in January. We wanted to be near Jamaica Inn and this hotel was in a good location for that (10 minutes drive)
As we had hoped, this particular Premier Inn was up to the usual great standards we've come to expect from this chain - great location (ASDA next door, KFC opposite, McDonald's a bit further down the main road), plenty of parking, friendly check-in, good sized & very clean family room + bathroom.
The only downside (and the reason for the 4 green circles) was breakfast the next morning. As a family we all look forward to a Premier Inn breakfast and although the restaurant/breakfast area was lovely and cosy, the breakfast was not a buffet, so portion sizes were small and worse than that (for me) they had limited vegetarian options available, so I was unable to have my usual breakfast.
Overall though, a great hotel which was perfect for our needs. We would stay here again if we were in the area.
- robertaJ2609FW (10/5): Great stay and location close to A30 - Very helpful staff at the reception desk helping me with my check in, the room was very spacious. The room was very tidy & clean. Great location as close to A30
- saraaD7429CZ (10/5): Above and beyond - Had a lovely relaxed stay on a weekend away to visit a local festival!!! Great staff and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you!
- Resort67516220384 (10/5): chloe likey likey - this hotel was excellent! the staff were great and very competent at their job. the room was clean and comfortable. I slept amazingly and the hotel was lovely and quiet. 10/10, would recommend!
- Trek532555 (10/5): Great hotel - Wonderful staff, accommodation comply, would definitely come back and recommend to others, convenient location close to A30 so easy to explore the area and get to other locations.
- Mitchell2467 (2/5): Very run down and unclean. - First off as soon as we walked into our room it smelt of of damp and a musky smell.
Closer inspection everything hadn’t been cleaned properly with thick dust on top of the wardrobe, skirting boards and tops of edges. There was paint peeling off the corners of the walls and in the bathroom wall. The door frame to the bathroom was filthy. Loose bath tap with rust around it. The sink tap didn’t run cold water and was hot all the time.
There was signs of damp on the wall above the window.
Bed sheet didn’t even fit the main bed.
Then the head board had 2 grease marks where people’s heads have been.
I reported this to reception and all I got was I shall put that on my list for maintenance.
The evening meal was fine but breakfast was a total disaster.
There was hardly any food out for continental, no plates and the bowels that were out were all dirty.
When I asked for some plates they came out and the first 1 I picked up had butter all under it which went all over my hands.
When we were asked if we wanted a cooked breakfast I declined as I could see it being a long wait as hardly any staff. This was confirmed as the people next to us waited over an hour for a cooked breakfast.
The tables weren’t cleaned and the chairs were disgusting with stains and grubby marks over them.
- samkN9172IO (10/5): Great Stay - A great stay with such lovely staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are slightly dated but are spotlessly clean .
- clairepQ2932XW (10/5): Excellent hotel - Lovely hotel room for a quick family getaway. Food was excellent, room was nice and clean and the staff were really friendly. Would highly recommend!
