Guest Reviews
- O7850ISgrahamg (4/5): disappointed - been coming here for a few years, now charge 3 pounds per night for stay i will not be staying here again stay somewhere else money grab
- Paradise17347466190 (10/5): Excellent server - I was served by a polite young man, he was very patient taking my order due to my stutter. I will definitely be visiting again soon.
- marionlP4276DK (10/5): A very comfortable good value place to stay to visit Portsmouth and the South Downs - Excellent location in Horndean and off the motorway. Very easy to get to South Downs, and to visit Portsmouth.
Very comfortable hotel with easy parking and a warm welcome from staff. The bed was comfortable and there were good quality toiletries in the en suite shower room. Nice to have comfortable seating too. All spotlessly clean.
Excellent value, and nice to be able to walk into the town with choice of places to eat.
- katenW2559HC (8/5): Comfortable but claustrophobic - The hotel provided a comfortable night's sleep. Room had no natural air as windows were sealed, so would have preferred to be able to have some 'fresh' air.
Air conditioning made the temperature more comfortable.
- Textileartist (10/5): A great second stay - This was my second stay and again the room was spacious, clean. The beds are sensationally comfortable and the room very quiet. The air conditioning worked very well too as I normally like to sleep in a room with an open window. Most of all the staff are friendly and helpful without exception, which was great!
- anncV2866DC (10/5): Nice overnight stay - Lovely stay. The room was clean, and comfortable. Was informed prior to the stay about the road closure although this did not affect anything
- DeeandDeeG (10/5): So welcoming - even at 2am - We got stuck on a shut motorway for 3 hours. (Obviously my heart goes out to anyone involved in the accident, and their needs are far more important than ours.) Luckily we had booked Premier Inn for an overnight stop and they promise a 24 hour check-in so we didn't need to worry about the extra time waiting. And sure enough when we did arrive at 2am they were incredibly friendly and efficient. Hugely appreciated.
- SMCoombs69 (8/5): Nice stay for one night - I'd booked one night at the premier Inn whilst visiting my parents on Hayling island.
I arrived after a fairly stressful drive but was greeted with a smile which was nice.
Check in was nice and quick. Had to pay £3 to park for one night which I didn't think was too bad.
I'd paid for the meal deal - evening 2 course meal with a drink and unlimited breakfast.
The evening meal was nice but I have had nicer at the Brentwood premier Inn.
I had a room on the first floor which was very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep.
I went down to breakfast at around 9am by which time the "continental" elements were fairly short in supply. I had granola with fruit and yogurt and a couple of croissants. I didn't have any of the cooked breakfast items so can't comment on that.
I would say that the price for a continental breakfast is quite steep for the variety on offer but I had been happy to pay for the meal deal for pure convenience.
The staff I encountered were all very friendly and helpful and as a solo female I felt very safe.
- P6833ATandrewm (10/5): Warm and welcoming - The staff were wonderful they helped me so much the treats in our room made us feel so welcome on our second day my son fell ill and made a mess of the toilet and nathan (staff member) came straight in and cleaned it all up no issues so polite and professional great guy had a great stay will be booking again thanks guys
- Z998LLchrism (10/5): Our best Premier Inn stay yet – welcoming staff, amazing with the kids, and so helpful throughout! - We stayed at Premier Inn Horndean as a family during the October break and had a fantastic experience. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and went out of their way to make our kids feel special, even giving them a Halloween pack each. They were always informative and happy to help. Thanks to the team, this has been our best Premier Inn stay ever – we can’t recommend it highly enough!
- paulcT2880OQ (2/5): Extra fees charged on arrival without being notified in advance. - Charged me an additional fee of £6 on arrival at reception without notifying me beforehand, so I was unaware of this charge.
- Chris20022015 (2/5): Charging for Parking/Hot Breakfast not avaliable - I have stayed here before and had no issues but upon arrival I was informed that I needed to pay a parking fee to stay at the hotel, which I think is disgusting considering I had already paid to stay and nothing was mentioned upon booking. Also there is nowhere else to park for free as the hotel is next door to a busy motorway junction. I fully understand registering your vehicle if you are visiting as this is to deter other people from using your parking but what I don't understand is why you charge for something that there is no need for. Secondly on the morning of departure, hot breakfast was not avaliable due to a problem with the kitchen ovens. Obviously Liquid refreshments were available alongside a very small choice of cereal but considering I paid for a Full English Breakfast and this was not avaliable, I was not offered any compensation for the charge of £10.99
- 340sueu (8/5): Long term stay - Positives:
Staff are welcoming, flexible and resolve problems quickly
Beds are comfortable; bedding and towels changes are clean and on request
Self serve replenishment of tea/coffee/milk
Yoghurt now served in large containers to avoid unnecessary plastics
Breakfast was served hot and replenished regularly (£10.99); good vfm since unlimited
Self check in is convenient
Amazon lockers are useful for delivery pick up for longer stays
Even better if:
Head office need to ensure carpets are deep cleaned regularly; visibly dirty and corridors smell
Water flow is too fine in the sink taps so it’s difficult to wash down basin and fill sink quickly
The double rotation of the shower controls is annoying and cumbersome.
Soap dispensers in the showers just trickle down the side; a poor design
New parking charges increase stay costs
A range of complimentary tea bags are available
Hairdryers need updating; multi speed/temperature settings
- 608mairij (10/5): Lovely relaxing break - We have stayed here before and it didn’t disappoint.
Good location , plenty to do.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
We had a premier plus room which was lovely, very clean , super shower. Excellent broadband compared to ours !
Very comfortable bed for our 4night stay .
Will return to this hotel.
- joedN4156QW (10/5): Very good - Warm and helpful staff nothing was too much of a promlem ,it was dealt with immediately.
I would call out to the staff in the restaurant and reception at the time of visit 22/10/25
- Benthomas123 (10/5): Room for one night. Had breakfast which was lovely, amazing staff helped me all the way from check in to check out - Amazing staff really attentive and a very clean room. Breakfast was hot and a lot to choose from. I will definitely be staying again
- D9145OLchantalc (8/5): Reliably good night's sleep - Great night's sleep and friendly staff. Reliably good place to stay. Liked the adjustable heating in the room, the choice of lighting options and the bed is sooo comfy.
Include the parking though in your prices please.
- I7988ASneilc (10/5): Good Experience - Contracting away from home, the hotel is very clean and well presented rooms. At evening time the hotel is very quiet.
The Roebuck next door serves very good quality food and breakfast is good. Ann and the other staff members give outstanding service.
- LoveTravel794882 (8/5): Good Hotel shame about the breakfast - The Premier Inn was really clean & the plus room was well equipped. The rooms were nice and dark at night and quiet. Perfect location to stay when visiting our friends & Barton Grange with good easy access to main roads. The car park has plenty of free space.
However, the breakfast was not good in an adjacent chef and brewer. The pub needs a deep clean, lots of dust and was grubby. The crockery had clearly been through a dishwasher but not checked and was put out still dirty. There were no tongs to handle food with and also food listed not available e.g maple syrup and blueberry muffins, as well as the coffee not coming from a machine but from flasks which meant that it was hot as it should be. It's definitely not worth the money. In fact, I would question there hygiene rating based on what I observed.
I would definitely stay at the hotel again, but not have breakfast at the pub.
- Knocker874 (10/5): Reall nice rooms and location good. - Really nice clean premier inn, nice and dark at night also quiet.
Really good place to stop.easy access to main roads.
Car park plenty of free space.
Breakfast not so good in an adjacent chef and brewer..
not worth the money and the eating place was dark and a bit grubby.
Would I stay at the hotel.again….. yes
Would I recommend ….yes
Would I have breakfast…. NO
- 864kerensah (6/5): Mixed visit - Room was absolutely fine; comfortable and clean and what you would expect from a premier inn.
We arrived quite late due to travelling for six hours and we received a frankly cold reception from the staff member on duty; no information given about breakfast, not even vague directions to our room and a general unfriendly disposition.
- travelwhenyouca (10/5): Clean, quiet, great breakfast and a great nights sleep - Our third time in Portsmouth but our first time at this hotel. We asked for quiet room and were given one down the end of the corridor and had a great nights sleep. Breakfast much better than the one served at a much more expensive hotel we have stayed at while in P mouth. Lots of nice staff about, espcically at breakfast. great thank you
- chrisridley2014 (8/5): Well located, Great bed and usually reasonably priced - This Hotel is well located for seeing the area of Portsmouth and Chichester.
Good breakfast although they did have limited selection when we were later one morning. Always a comfy bed and the room is absolutely fine for a couple of nights break, although I would up grade to the Premier Plus if staying longer. We picked a week where it had a major event on so prices were astronomical at £230/nt (rather than £70-90 normally ) and this price structure puts it in the same bracket as slightly more up market Hotels in the area like Emsworth ! but I did find it really hard to accept having to pay for the car parking on top of the room rate, especially having a Blue Badge so parking anywhere else is not an option... this need to be changed by Corporate Whitbread.
- AliH8691 (10/5): Convenient, comfortable, friendly hotel with good breakfast - We were impressed with this Premier Inn..
Booking and parking was easy, as was check-in. The staff were friendly and helpful.
The room was comfortable, spacious, and very clean, and the bed was comfortable. The only issue was that the extractor fan in the garden didn't appear to be working as after using the shower, the bathroom steamed up ridiculously and refused to clear for ages, making it very difficult to see in the mirror...might want to look at this.
The breakfasts were very good... especially impressed with the cooked items.
This premier inn is easy walking distance from Havant itself... Once you've worked out crossing the road and the footbridge to get into town!
Overall, it was a really good stay and would be very happy to return.
- David3141597 (10/5): Recommended premier inn to stay at. - Good welcome from staff, good clean plus room, quiet and very comfortable bed too. First time at this particular premier inn and if in the area again would not hesitate in booking again, thanks.
- BarryL282 (10/5): Fantastic services in all areas. - Always a great experience staying at Premier inn Preston North. Staff are all super helpful and pleasant. Transport is on the doorstep, and buses run a good service too!
- B8974EJstephenh (10/5): Preston North is a good place to stay - A great stay for the night we were in Preston visiting family. The hotel is quiet and well-appointed, but handy for the main A6. Rooms were comfortable and not too hot (a frequent Premier Inn problem) - windows opened to provide plenty of fresh air. Breakfast, served in the adjacent Roebuck pub, was the best Premier Inn breakfast I have had in many visits across the country.
- harpoon2000 (10/5): DJ is an asset - DJ on reception made our stay a delight. Comfortable bed and newly refurbished rooms were very relaxing. The Roebuck pub next door is a charming country pub with a good choice of food.
- hannahpL3859HM (4/5): Definitely will not stay here again - We stayed here for 1 night and had 2 rooms for our party.
One room smelt severely of damp and felt damp inside, also with a strange smell near the sofa bed ?faeces related. This room also had a sound every 20 minutes overnight which sounded like water filling up in a tank and then shutting off with another loud bang. The rooms were severely dated and not very clean in our opinion, there were stains in the bath in one room. Signal is very poor in this location so we had to use the WiFi, the free premier inn WiFi was horrendous and would not work at all so it kind of forced us to pay the £5 for 24 hours for the ultimate WiFi package. If you were here for business I feel that you would struggle to complete work with this Wifi. The rooms we had were situated by a road and it was quite noisy overnight even with the windows shut.
The only positive thing I have to say is that the beds were VERY comfortable.
- hjayc93 (2/5): The hottest hotel we’ve ever stayed in - Our room was so hot that it was practically unbearable. In the morning, when it was at its coolest, the room was 29 degrees. Didn’t sleep well at all due to the temperature, even with an extra fan that we requested. and when raised upon checkout (after previously raising the issue) we were told we should have paid extra and booked a premier plus room as they have air-con. A disappointing response.
- 963tinyp (10/5): Amazing stay - great location, great staff, great food, tony was an amazing soul, could not do enough for me , thanks, will defo stay here again, one of the best hotels around!
- Climber07592361689 (10/5): All round V. Good - We found it overall to be very good, clean and welcoming. Efficient check in with a quiet environment and helpful staff.
- 801garethv (10/5): Pre cruise stay - Great hotel, reception staff very good, found us a iron, decaf tea, as they don't normally stock it seems, Breakfast good.
- W7493FRrachelc (8/5): Nice hotel - This Premier Inn has been recently refurbished, so the rooms/bathrooms are of a good standard. WiFi was very slow, and not much phone signal. We didn't have any issues with parking, despite being told by reception that the hotel was fully booked.
Be aware that the usual Premier Inn breakfast offering is not an option here. It is not made clear on the website that the restaurant next door is not owned by Premier Inn, and when we arrived we were told we couldn't have breakfast there as we hadn't booked in advance - this has not been the case at other Premier Inns we've been to, where you can turn up any time in the morning and pay. We were recommended some other local restaurants to try, but they were far more expensive than the Premier Inn offering!
- alwayskeith (2/5): Worst nights sleep ever and the smell!! - From check in to room selection. I had purchased two rooms for an event I was due to attend some months ago and 2 time fortunate circumstances could not attend therefore rebooked the rooms to a later date. On arrival I advised the person designated to assist my check-in of the issue with me only in the requiring one room however asked if that one room could be a quiet room as I am quite a light sleeper. This appeared to cause the receptionist much distress as I was then asked a lot of questions about who the other room was for to which I advised that I'm not sure how this was important as I had paid for and they were both my rooms the advised her of my friends last name, however I would just like a room that was quiet the receptionist then went on to tell me that the room she had me booked into was quiet and was actually better than the other room and also if I wanted a specific room selection I should have requested this in advance, a strange statement as this was the first time I had stayed at this hotel. I again asked if there was a quiet room to which she then said there were no other rooms in the hotel available as was fully booked. I then again advised of my other room to which she already told me it would be noisier and still would not tell me the room number. The quiet nights and restful sleep that you advertise so willingly and I often find is okay at other premiere inns I stay in was not this room that I had - room 201. The window although fully closed, let so much noise from the nearby road that every time a truck or a car was traveling, throughout the night I was awoken, my partner also noting it was like many earthquakes all through the night or a loud thunderstorm. The bed that I was sleeping in had no real fitted nor correctly made sheets and as such everything just screwed up underneath one's body which made for an even more uncomfortable night.
This however faded into non-importance almost, due to the horrific smell that emanated from the bathroom drains, toilet etc in the morning I can only describe it as one to be compared to a Victorian men's public toilet. I'm assuming the soil stacks and drainage system haven't seen sight of a cleaning chemical for some extensive period of time for this to happen. I understand that I booked two rooms and there was no refund available as the receptionist had very reminded me earlier two or three times, however one would expect the quality of a room to far exceed the state of the room that I stayed in for the weekend. I can honestly say I would never return to this hotel pre refurb or deep clean as this is certainly required, you may be better just selling the unit if you really do not care what your guests think about staying in this hotel as sooner or later word of mouth will make this hotel not a viable prospect for your business.
I must finish by saying that this has to be hands down the worst premier Inn I have ever stayed in and due to my work and company travels around the country I have stayed in quite a few, to choose a brand that normally fits purpose based on my experiences at other premier inns for what was going to be a truly social weekend, I cannot stress how thoroughly disappointed as well as tired this weekend as made me feel and how I'm sure I am I should choose a premier Inn for a personal weekend away
- milesb553 (2/5): Everything smelt musty and damp… don’t stay here. - The hotel corridors smelt terrible, the bedroom smelt even worse. The short curtain smelt so bad that everything smelt like damp. I had to remove it and put it in the corridor. Everything was old, worn and outdated. Until they do a full refresh of the hotel, I wouldn’t advise staying there. They also need to do better with cleaning.
- S3587JZpaulm (8/5): Nice hotel. What we needed - Good modern hotel. Room and bathroom clean so no complaints.
Breakfast is not really unlimited since no longer a buffet. However was very nice and fresh.
- D2231QWpeterr (2/5): Disappointed stay at Premier Inn - Typical Premier Inn, relatively clean. Real issue as the aircon wasn't controllable in the room, broken. Very noisy, very cold. Terrible nights sleep, got up to reception twice in the night, eventually had system turned off centrally by the reception
staff. Room then hot but at least quieter. Hairdryer broken, electrical fault, and curly hair on fresh towels. Regularly staff at Premier Inns and have never had reason to complain before. Hopefully just a one off.
- DancingSid (6/5): Hot and stuffy - England is in the middle of a heatwave. The windows in this hotel are sealed shut and the air conditioning cannot be set to cool overnight (only to heat). It was therefore hardly surprising we had a dreadful night. This from a hotel chain whose key advertising message is a great night's sleep.
The staff are friendly and helpful but there's only so much they can do with the frankly ridiculous way this hotel is set up.
Having read some dreadful reviews of the food here we chose to eat at the Farmhouse Inn across the car park, which was average but edible.
Would we recommend this hotel? Yes, but only in the winter.
- KateS3866 (10/5): Great night's sleep at Horndean. - As always we have found Premier Inns to provide a comfortable bed and a clean room. Nothing fancy but just what you need if all you are looking for is a good night's sleep and a decent (reasonably priced) breakfast. Staff very helpful and friendly at the Horndean site too.
- O5625XZadrianb (10/5): Premier inn at its best - Such a great place to stay, set in a lovely quiet village with a fantastic pub steps away to enjoy food and drinks in . Would recommend definitely
- westfossil (2/5): Take your own mattress topper - The staff were very pleasant but the bed was the most uncomfortable I’ve ever attempted to sleep in, it was like lying on a plank with a brick for a pillow.
- I1210XAdebbiec (10/5): Exceptional Service - The room was spotless and the breakfast delicious. We wanted to mention Caitlin and Toni who are on the housekeeping team but were helping out with breakfast. They were so friendly, kind and helpful and made our stay even more special. Thank you 😊
- B9595EOsimonm (10/5): Quiet, comfortable stay - Nice, clean hotel located just a couple of minutes from the A3 in a quiet area (Horndean). Plenty of parking spaces available, and the bedroom was well sized and comfortable. Staff were extremely helpful, especially Abigail and Sarah.
- W7061XQmichaeld (10/5): Great experience - This a really nice place with welcoming staff. Mohammed in particular was such a great host. He made sure we were comfortable and responded to our every need. Anytime you need a place to stay in Havant or Hayling Island, never look anywhere else.
- tabbycat244 (6/5): Unlimited brekky...no chance here. Lucky to get any brekky. - Room good but could do with proper air conditioning.
Main problem was the restaurant. Service was very slow and the drink that I ordered didn't appear. To be fair they didn't charge me for it,
Breakfast service was appalling. One person having to check people in, replenish the already depleted buffet, and after a very long wait actually serve. Certainly no "Unlimited brekky" here...it was "Tell me what you want and that's what you get".
No chance of any end.
Do yourselves a favour, avoid the restaurant and go somewhere else.
- ScotsmanD (10/5): Good night's rest - Excellent accommodation at Premier inn Preston North.
Natasha on reception so friendly and very helpful when checking in and dealing with our questions.
Premier Inn Plus bedroom very nice decor and room location end of a quiet corridor for restful nights sleep.
Very clean and modern.
- Gaz_family (10/5): Lovely clean and friendly attentive staff - Lovely setting, frei ding attentive staff, great experience will definitely use this location again for future trips
- alisap358 (10/5): Value stay - Decent clean room and good service, good breakfast.
Helpful staff. Fast check in and out. Quite Slow Internet. No air conditioning unit.
- SouthShieldsLesley (10/5): Excellent stay - Excellent premier Inn, This is the best premier inn we have stayed at. Accommodation lovely, bathroom excellent and reception great. Attached restaurant, brilliant. Highly recommended
- JoeCBansteadUK (10/5): A Good Premier Inn - I stayed one night solo in June.
Easily found with plenty of parking in a quiet location close by the canal with some pleasant walks.
Friendly and efficient staff throughout.
Well up to Premier Inn standards - clean and comfortable.
No aircon and limited window opening make for a warm room. No lift to first floor for those with mobility problems.
The adjacent Chef & Brewer offers decent food and decent prices with friendly staff.
Excellent value.
- yvettem886 (10/5): Perfect stay !! - One of the best Premier Inns we have stayed at and we’ve stayed in loads. We had a disabled room and a double room and both were very well kept and clean throughout. The area was so quiet and really lovely with the canal just across the road. Staff were friendly and helpful, if only all Premier Inns were like this one !!!
- 972abbil (10/5): Great stay as always - Very quick and efficient check in, easy to find. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a really good night's sleep.
- nixonstewart163 (10/5): Four day break away from work to relax and unwind . - Nice warm welcome ,pleasent town to stay in plenty of places to eat , had a day out on the buses to southampton ,which I no so well as it was the home of the Jst which no longer exists and for a time I lived in paart of it . All so had aday out to Portsmouth Docks very interesting and got a ticket valured for a year so can go back soon .
- 434dereks (8/5): Good room shame about the pub - Preston North has been recently renovated and the rooms are very comfortable and clean. The new walk in showers are a big improvement.
We were aware that this property doesn’t have air con, but they do provide a fan which was welcome in the recent hot weather.
Friendly staff and a warm welcome.
Only disappointment was that after arriving at 2130 after a long hot drive, you’d expect to be able to get a pint in the attached pub, however the pub had closed up by the time we had dropped our bags and that was only 10 mins later.
Lucky there’s The White Bull over the road which was open and served up a refreshing pint after a long day on the road.
- Z1584MUnicolal (6/5): Good hotel and food unless you are a non-smoker - Comfortable, warm and clean room with good facilities.
Breakfast was lovely but could have done with more choice on the continental side.
However, the designated smoking area is right outside of the main entrance. This was a major negative for me and my family. Everytime we walked outside with our 2 young children we had to walk through vapes and cigarette smoke. These sorts of areas should be in a more secluded area away from entrances not straight outside. I suspect this was more to do with it being the only sheltered area but something should built if this is the reason. This was very off putting! This would definitely make me reconsider ever booking here again if it wasn’t changed.
We did also experience noisy and nuisance guests who woke us up at 7am by running and idling their noisy exhaust cars for about 30 minutes. My husband got up to speak to reception and was told that the manager had spoken with them. However they were still doing it and hadn’t been moved on. On Sunday morning they were revving the engines as they left at a similar time! This could have been handled better and more promptly to avoid the disruption to guests. They could have been asked to park further away from the hotel or told to turn their engines off.
All in all we were happy with the hotel itself and food but I would be reconsidering looking elsewhere next time we need to visit this area for the reasons mentioned above.
- manhalh2025 (10/5): Best hotel for cleanliness and service with very reasonable prices - Great place to stay as zi came from Canada quite impressived how clean and nice hotel is all the receptions people where helpful and gentle to answer any questions...love this place definently will be back to this hotel , also the price where very reasonable...cheers
- 967davinam (10/5): Another great stay at this Premier Inn! - Always a warm and friendly welcome, bed amazingly comfortable, and room very clean. Love the breakfast at the Red Lion pub at the bottom of the car park as well. The free Wi-Fi was a bit hit and miss the first night, so paid the £5 upgrade for the 24 hours ultimate Wi-Fi which worked perfectly, but the free Wi-Fi was fine the rest of the time.
