Guest Reviews

• Ugochukwu (10/5): - Kool
• evied775 (10/5): Extremely comfortable! - Visited recently and it was amazing! The vibes are immaculate and the reception staff are extremely helpful. I was helped by Louise on the front desk. Lovely girl and very polite. I will be visiting again as the rooms are extremely comfortable :) xxx
• D7127XJjackb (10/5): Amazing service. - Tracy and Kelly were great. Kelly went out her way to make sure everything was made easy for my stay. Both a credit to the company.
• josiew827 (8/5): Basic but comfortable - We had a comfortable 1 night stay here. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bed was really comfy! Bathroom wasn’t amazing, but it was what you’d expect from a premier inn. There’s a miller and carter directly next door which was really handy after a long drive! Breakfast was fab, I think it was around £10 each for unlimited hot breakfast and couldn’t fault it. Staff were friendly. Vending machine in reception was a bit steep, £2.70 for a small bottle of water!
• aaroncL1608NF (2/5): Avoid very dirty hotel - Rooms very dirty cob webs and walls dirty , bathroom was dirty very thin walls lots of noise, hard beds no view from window just brick wall
• southies233 (6/5): Did its job - Room was clean and spacious but toilet was bizarre .. like a child seat on an adult loo so it was ill fitting and uncomfortable. Staff are helpful and welcoming on check in. Breakfast at Beefeater was lovely but wouldn't have dinner if we stayed again(tasteless and dry). Short distance by car to Lemon Quay for shopping and restaurants.
• carlrP8196BQ (10/5): 10/10 stay at Prem In - All team working very accommodating and polite, Tracy (without a E) very professional & helpful with all the guests and making sure I had enough toilet roll for my snotty nose
• C7378FAcharless (10/5): Good place to stay. - Had a quiet good night's sleep Excellent breakfast served by Thalita, who was so helpful. Parking easy and adjacent to A Carter and Miller steak house which is also very good.
• bencF3038LF (10/5): Great stay - Absolutely amazing service banging rooms had a banging experience the food was amazing also and Tracy was a great member of staff
• dankZ1919SR (10/5): Amazing - Absolutely amazing staff were so helpful and on hand to help with everything. Tracy in particular went above and beyond
• H9611LCkeithf (8/5): Clean, quiet sand comfortable stay - Warm welcome on arrival. Basic room but very clean and quiet with a very comfortable bed. Surprisingly good breakfast.
• 512ix (10/5): 🥰 - I’ve never ever been the guy at the reception was very nice on arrival the bed was lush to I slept really well enjoyed the bath the morning staff at breakfast was very polite and happy food was yummy we really enjoyed it and defo go again on our visits
• 369aidenm (10/5): Review of employee - One women stood out in particular named Tracy. I had a formal meal and stressed about sorting out my tie. Tracy with a bright beautiful smile came over to help. She said she was unsure but tied it exceptionally well. I was flattered when she said “you scrub up quite well”. Tracy 100% deserves a pay rise and the best treatment from all customers.
• 188muada (10/5): My experience with premier Inn is excellent - The Hotel in Truro is nice and Clean I’ve been here many times and I always ask my company to book me hotel here is really nice and the staff are friendly
• jessicarE8387LG (4/5): Zero sleep, terrible. - Our room wasn't clean, there were sick or some sort of awful looking liquid all down the side of the wall and skirting board beside the bed. We paid over £90 for a one night stay and all we could hear all night were the fans outside. They go off around 5.30am - they're super loud so if you actually want to sleep here, you'd have to close the window and suffocate. We had the worst night sleep with such a busy day after so wasn't pleased at all. Parking is horrendous we were lucky to find a spot to park after driving round 3 times. The carpets are really worn and feel dirty, it's very tired and has a fusty smell throughout the whole building including the room. Will not be returning. Gutted as we paid nearly £90 for our room and over £80 for my family's rooms, we didn't get our money's worth at all. The only good thing about this hotel is the breakfast. Worst nights sleep ever. This place will be taking in thousands too as loads stay here for harry potter tour, like ourselves. Yet they haven't updated anything there. Carpets are disgusting, stains up the walls, loud fans outside keeping you up all night, no air con yet the prices reflect a higher expectation. Disgusted.
• X2774KApault (10/5): Great bed, great bfast, great staff - Mark was an absolutely superb host making sure the vegetarians in our group were catered for. Professional and helpful to the 8th degree and a total credit to the company. Hotel was spotless , room and bed were beautifully comfortable. The only observation was a slight musty smell in the corridors, maybe time to deep clean the carpets? Breakfast buffet was absolutely delicious, went back for more! Thanks to all the staff. We'll definitely be back.
• terryly2025 (8/5): First time here would stay again a little longer - Only had a short stay of 2 nights, the room was clean, bed was comfortable, staff were pleasant, unfortunately heard the room above (creaking floorboards). On the upside we would like to mention Hasna and the other lady (whose name we didn't get) who looked after the breakfast shift. We have always had good breakfasts at Premier Inns, but my husband and I feel it's the staff that make it enjoyable and these 2 ladies did that.
• louisez352 (10/5): Comfortable Weekend stay - We've just come back from a great weekend stay for the university open day. It is very conveniently located for the Penryn campus. The staff here were fantastic, super helpful and friendly. The hotel itself could do with some updating it looks a little tired on the outside with a faded sign. But overall a great stay and would stay here again if we're down this way again.
• stewartp577 (10/5): Home from home - Always great welcome from Tracy Kelly and all on reception. I stay here for couple nights a week for work. Great new rooms. Its home from home
• RandomOpinion (4/5): Overpriced and disappointing - We've stayed at this hotel a few times. This was definitely our worst experience and we will probably not return. We felt it was looking tired, and there was an air of "not bothering to look after the guests". We were there for 3 nights. Our room wasn't serviced in that time. It was not made clear to us that we would need to ask for this if we wanted it (if they even did that). Bathroom smelled musty. (Our other family members staying there had a worse experience of musty bathroom to us.) Our toilet seat wasn't the correct one for the toilet bowl. Other family members reported the same for their toilets. There was building work going on, which we were notified about, but we didn't expect all the trades vehicles to be parked in the guest spaces, when we could see a nice area they had fenced off that they could have parked in. The food was acceptable and service mostly ok, but for what we paid we felt it was overpriced and they need to take a serious look at what they're offering and the price. I'm sure my other family members won't be returning either. The chairs in the bar area of the Beefeater were in need of repair. Note, this hotel does not have a lift, but we were on the ground floor this time.
• trevorpD8263XQ (10/5): Harry Potter Weekend Stay. - Parkinson and Ivers Family, we stayed one night before going to Harry Potter tour. Excellent location just down road for Harry Potter. Staff friendly and informative about everything. Very welcoming. Excellent sleep just like adverts and good cooked breakfast. Made our weekend. Thank you to all staff.
• lookey01 (10/5): A great place to stay in Truro - Another warm and friendly welcome by the team on reception, as always. We stayed in one of the new Premier Rooms .. absolutely fantastic...very comfortable bed . lovely powerful shower, fridge and coffee machine Very reasonably priced for half term weekend The breakfast was very good, if a bit hectic due the number of guests .Felt sorry for the overworked staff Yet again another excellent stay
• kylepP2571LL (10/5): Great Stay - Great stay, Phenomenal room. Special thank you to Chelsie for sorting us a room change from a twin to a double room and helping us out!
• paultA4211QE (10/5): Very happy with room and staff have been staying here for 10 weeks with work and have never had a problem - Lovely clean and affordable room and staff are amazing and so helpful would recommend this hotel to anyone who is staying in Cornwall
• richarda17 (8/5): Standard Premier Inn hotel. Nothing special - Standard Premier Inn, not sure why the accessible room for people with mobility issues was so far down the corridor of rooms. Surely it should be near the exit. We were in the annex on Monday when the fire alarm was tested without warning. There was a sign in the main reception apparently but not the annex. Comfortable bed, decent room. Rubbish WiFi
• tiffanywY8170XR (10/5): Excellent as expected - A reliable Premiere inn visit - slept brilliantly in a comfy bed and clean well equipped room with en suite. Everything I needed at a great price for my business trip.
• Y5847JRsamh (10/5): Fab location and friendly team - Lovely friendly check in team and breakfast team had everything we needed and great location for the HP Studios tour - free car parking also a nice bonus
• Adventure43792751923 (10/5): Matilda's review - I love the experience it was really nice the beds were comfy and me and my brother I've got a separate bed breakfast was so yummy we loved all the food and drink the members were very nice and kind. The only downside was the room smelled a bit musty and it wasn't like the other premiere and we've been to that had purple lights but the bed but it was amazing we had a fantastic spirit it even had fun and the hair dryer it had everything even a massive TV and their toilet was amazing the sink was a little bit dodgy if you lifted it up too high the water would spare everywhere so be careful if you have used room one two three the shower was beautiful I had a go in there and it was quite nice there's a Tesco's quite near and we had some food at a nearby restaurant called Oscar's pizza we stayed here after we went to Harry potter studio tour which we also really enjoyed
• 904sallyv (10/5): Everything excellent - A warm welcome from the reception. The rooms are a perfect size for our family. Beds comfy and clean room. The breakfast staff Gary and Thalita are super. They are very attentive and kind nothing is too much trouble. Food was plentiful and fresh. Nice job! Highly recommend.
• 83jennye (6/5): OK stay. - Good value for money. Well placed hotel. Entrance sign is needed. We couldn't find the entrance door easily when we arrived in the dark! No hairdryer or extra pillows in the room. They were in the middle of renovation but that didn't affect our stay.
• Old_Waspy (10/5): Comfortable, reasonably priced hotel - I stayed here in a standard room for 3 nights. It was much as expected for a Premier Inn, a decent size with a reasonable amount of storage, TV, coffee making etc. The place was showing some signs of age. Very comfortable bed. Bedside power was just a single USB socket, but there were 3 pin sockets available elsewhere. A big fan was provided as substitute air conditioning. The shower was in a deep bath, difficult if you have mobility issues. No lift, but there are accessible rooms which you need to book in advance. There was no noise from adjacent rooms. There is ample free parking. A nice buffet breakfast is served in the hotel (includes full English). A Miller & Carter restaurant (fairly expensive, but excellent) is collocated on site. The village centre with pubs, restaurants and shops is just 5 minutes walk. A comfortable, reasonably priced hotel, I would happily stay again.
• beckycI6711IS (6/5): Needs a refurb but staff were lovely - Staff were great, rooms could do with some improvement and our view from the window was a brick wall. Rooms smelt damp and instead of a bedside table I was given a bar stool which made me laugh! Parts of the room were falling apart like the edges of the shelves etc. My son's bed was rock hard but the other beds were comfortable. Location is great for a short drive to the beach but not many shops or anything around in walking distance.
• christinewV1193ZJ (8/5): Lovely stay near Truro - We stayed for one night, the room & bathroom were very nice & clean. We booked the meal deal & had an evening meal with a drink & breakfast in the morning. The food was good & the staff were helpful & friendly. We would happily stay here again.
• 171geoffr (6/5): Chaotic - My wife and I, who live in the area, went for breakfast. We were astonished at the restaurant manager who was utterly overworked and rushed from one task to the next just about keeping things going. We don't know how he coped.
• ronniecE972WS (10/5): Convenient and friendly - The location of this hotel is perfect for Harry Potter fans with Warner Bros studios being a very short drive away. We had a spacious double room however there were lots of families too. Service is very polite and friendly, and parking is free of charge. Breakfast is absolutely fantastic and highly recommended for the price.
• 315rajatv (10/5): Lovely place - “A lovely hotel with wonderful staff! The rooms were spotless, the reception was welcoming, and the overall atmosphere made my stay very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this place to anyone
• sammysA229TD (10/5): Very happy with our stay - We chose this hotel due to its close proximity to Warner Bros studios as it's only a few minutes drive away. Exceptional service in the breakfast room by the wonderful Gary - in fact all the staff were friendly and helpful. Parking is free and there is a Miller & Carter next door if feeling like a cocktail or two. Rooms were clean and spacious, and would return.
• 191beckyl (10/5): A*** - Lovely Hotel, great stay, beautiful breakfast, location was perfect for our needs and all staff were very warm and welcoming.
• amratlalp2025 (6/5): Premier Inn Kettering. - Clean room allocated in Annex Building. Needed airing as it had stale smell and smell like ex-smokers room. Should have Air freshener or aired. This was acceptable stay but not 'Premier Inn' standard for the amount paid. Would try different places in Kettering in future.
• dawnmI7453NV (8/5): Good location and comfortable stay. - Great location for Warner Bros Studios, took us under 10 mins to drive there on Saturday morning. Friendly staff and comfortable room, although a little more attention could have been given to cleaning of the floor. Bed sheets and bathroom both clean. Nice breakfast. I think it was good value for what we paid (75 including breakfast) and perfect for a quick stop over before an early morning trip to the Harry Potter tour. Plenty of parking, we didn’t see any problems with security of parking as mentioned in an earlier review. The hotel does share a car park with neighbouring Miller and Carter restaurant but we had no problems getting a space around the back, arriving at 8pm on a Friday. Very friendly guy on check in reassured us they have security cameras around the whole car park. We would stay again if visiting HP Tour.
• D1rtd1ver (4/5): Premier Inn/Beefeater Truro - My wife and I stayed in a Premium Plus room at the Premier Inn in Truro, and sadly it fell well short of expectations. On arrival the welcome was unenthusiastic, setting the tone for the stay. The heating didn’t work, the toilet roll holder fell off the wall, and overall the room felt tired and poorly maintained. For a “premium” upgrade, it was very underwhelming. We were also not informed at the time of booking that builders would be on site, which added to the disruption. The adjoining Beefeater pub was equally disappointing. Service was slow and disorganised — we waited 40 minutes for our food, and when it finally arrived the steak was not cooked as requested and the presentation was poor. For the price, the quality was far below what we’ve experienced at other Premier Inns and Beefeaters. Overall, a very disappointing stay that did not justify the “Premium Plus” label.
• mandf2015 (10/5): Overnight stay with Breakfast. - Excellent Premier Inn. The staff on Reception were so welcoming. They offered to assist us as my husband is Severely sight impaired. They also gave the children an activity pack. The room was very clean and tidy and we had a lot of room for the 4 of us. Beds were very comfy. The Breakfast in the morning had everything you can imagine ( the children loved the Nutella on toast).
• Dondon1961 (10/5): Overall stay - Stayed here visiting for a family wedding. All the staff were marvelous from top down. A special thank you to receptionist Saahd what a absolutely lovely young man, made us all so welcome nothing we asked was a problem. Had elderly mum with us and everyone was so kind. The only negative was a disabled room which didn't have walk in shower for her, but a bath ( couldn't get in). Whole hotel was spotless and the breakfast and staff in breakfast room wow..... Thank you all for a lovely stay.
• mandj1986 (6/5): Nice location poor standard of cleanliness - Didn’t expect dirty pillows Checked in ok we were put in the annex which was not a problem, the room was clean but only 1 set of towels for 2 people but when we opened the bed got the two extra pillows both were soiled with old makeup not a good sight
• helenrA6376QF (2/5): Premier Inn can no longer market themselves on a good night's sleep. - This Premier Inn has changed it's bed sizes and no longer provides comfortable beds that promote a good night's sleep. Firstly, it is helpful to know that all their 6ft beds have been changed for standard double beds, as confirmed by hotel reception staff. I booked a twin room and was expecting both beds to be at least standard width of 3ft and normal height for an adult. This was not the case. One of the beds was a small 2ft 6 inch bed, low to the ground. Suitable only for a child. I queried whether or not I had been given a twin room or a family room, as the other bed was a standard double. The receptionist confirmed that all of their twin rooms had one small bed, as described. In addition to the size, the mattress was soft and unsupportive and the bed sloped down on one side. The room was clean and quiet.
• N6211AZheathera (6/5): Rundown but good location - Great location for us. Staff very good always. The hotel is tired. Some room facilities do not work. Needs a refurb. Bed comfortable.
• lisaaQ2770FP (4/5): Great staff shake the hotel needs some TLC - Staff friendly & welcoming, lots of parking, breakfast great choice all fresh & hot! Room smelt funny and felt damp, mould in bathroom! Had a fan in room which was broken! Window didn’t open!
• Y44MFbeatab (10/5): I recommend it - I recommend this hotel. Friendly staff, easy check in. The room was clean and quiet. Good food in restaurant. I will definitely come back here.
• vinsalak2025 (10/5): Amazing - I had a really good stay due to the staff, they were brilliant! I stayed with my husband and young children who were offered activity books on arrival. The whole experience was a good one, I will definitely choose to stay again.
• jjamesD9672ZN (2/5): Over priced - Hot stuffy room. Very poor 2 nights sleep. No A/C and badly in need of it. Bathroom outdated. Female member of bar staff on the Tuesday night (19th August) indifferent and off hand. Had to ask twice for a white wine bottle cooler which she slammed on the bar. Over priced for such a budget hotel.
• Voyage35218409330 (6/5): Alan Partridge - Completely standard business /contractor travel hotel eg: Alan Partridge travel tavern from 1990s. Only difference is Tesla not Rovers in the car park.
• J6167VJrebeccak (10/5): Kettering Premier inn - Upon arrival staff at reception were amazing and very attentive. Being there with my little ones was very hectic but staff were extremely calm and patient and got us to our room in no time. Happy with our stay would be an understatement, will definitely be staying here again. -ps the free WiFi upgrade was a big bonus! :D
• terrymQ1912YY (6/5): Too hot in the rooms - Nice clean rooms and friendly staff. BUT couldn't sleep for the 2 nights we were there due to the temperature in the rooms. They definately need to start fitting air conditioning in the rooms. With these heat waves becomming more frequent it is needed.
• Billy23_9 (6/5): Average - This was a one night stay after a funeral, to save driving home in the rush hour. Tried Trivargo for the first time, but it just diverted me to the hotels own website. Paid £100 for one room. Check in very good, and appreciated the offer of a sheet because of the warm weather. Room as expected. Free wi-fi very poor. TV sound quality poor (make recognisable by the remote, but no makers name on set or remote). Only one large towel between two. No air on, which we knew at booking, but they did provide a fan as well as the sheet. No bottle of water.
• Leonardrossiter1974 (2/5): Just wow - So. Stayed on business. Business deal with food plus breakfast. Firstly front desk staff. Great. The hotel. It is situated 3 metres from the A14. Thundering traffic. Constant. I went in June. In a heatwave. My room at midnight was 26.5 degrees. I'd cool it down but your windows are locked shut and the fan was broke. Despite the business rate 'parking is not guaranteed'. That's reassuring on the side of a motorway. You need to book that on arrival. WiFi. That's a chargeable extra.. There is 'free' WiFi. All I'll say is 'connected without Internet' was the feature of my stay.. They outsource that so ring Virgin media at your cost etc.... So the business deal comes with a meal at the pub 'Brewers fayre' which is located between the reception and 2 and 3 other parts of your hotel adjacent to the A14. Again the one member of staff was truly amazing.. Genuinely. He was irked as only 1 of the 3 tills worked. Also he was the only guy at the time and I was in a queue of 8. Sounded like some quiz night. Anyway.. The meal deal. Allows for a drink, starter and main.. It was absolutely awful. Not one part of the meal felt anything other than reheated microwaved gruel. When the plate is scorching and your hideous side coleslaw salad is steaming then....
• P8872UAdavidn (10/5): Great place to stay - Great hotel excellent staff members on the reception today yara and Esther where amazing would happily stay here again
• E4977AQmb (8/5): It's the Premier Inn isn't it? - What can I say that hasn't already been said about Premier Inn? Spacious rooms with comfy beds....Although NOT as comfy as they used to be for some reason?! Like any chain,some are a little better than others,a little fresher,or a little more modern....This one is pretty much in the middle,not the most modern,but definitely not the 'tired' end of the scale. Tea/coffee making facilities✔️ Shower/bath combo✔️ 1 plug socket by the bed,but a few on the side by the kettle Room 1 is pretty much directly behind the reception area,so there was quite a bit of door opening/closing action going on,and this was around 1am,so be aware of that when booking,but all things said and done,a decent room. I travel quite a bit for my work,so a lot of the time I'm literally just checking in around midnight, and leaving again in the morning,so didn't really have chance to get a feel for the room,if I was staying in there all day,but great for what I needed. Keep being you Premier Inn,and please don't ever change.
• jordanmB1613CT (10/5): Good stay - Clean comfy stay. Only bad point is my room had been freshly painted and the smell of paint is still very overwhelming (room 10 main building) desk reception was very pleasant and warming - 2 young ladies with excellent professionalism -Esther & inga thankyou for the warm welcome
• RCox (10/5): Great stopover, super clean, helpful friendly staff - Stayed here to visit family. Excellent staff, super helpful and friendly. Everywhere was immaculately clean. Bed was super comfy, room had huge tv with smart connection. It is near a busy road, so some traffic. Ear plugs sorted that, and worth it for the quick and easy connections. Wifi is slow (even on the upgraded 'faster' wifi) but could still manage downloads and get some work done. Premier Inn head office should sort the wifi issue. Overall, a superb stay and we'll be coming here again.
• 220kristoferh (10/5): Short stay - Had a really great stay at this premier Inn, all the facilities you could need with good food and comfortable rooms. Reception staff were really helpful and welcoming especially Inga. Thank you for a wonderful short stay and would definitely recommend.
• Janey123a (10/5): One of the best premier inns we’ve stayed in. - Always love this hotel. Great place to stay if you’re visiting Santa Pod, Silverstone, Drayton Manor, we’ve even stayed here midway between our trip up to Alton Towers. Lovely staff. Clean bedrooms and the usual comfy beds. The fan in the room is a nice idea for the hotter months. Love that you can help yourself to more tea and milk in the reception. We did a meal deal which includes dinner, drink and breakfast next morning. Good value, food was excellent at dinner and was served quickly. Breakfast next morning was so much better than our local Premier Inn. Hot food available on the buffet (in our local we have to order everything except toast and you can never time cooking your toast to match when the food comes out so your food usually ends up getting cold!). Fresh croissants, pastries, crumpets, fruit, yoghurt, cereal, something for everyone. Highly recommended.
