Guest Reviews
- billywizz68 (10/5): A well run, clean and quiet hotel - A lovely modern Premier Inn. Clean, well organised with lovely staff. Great for a visit to Newcastle if you want to stay close but not pay the prices of hotels in the centre on a football day. A quiet location despite being close the the A1. The rooms were very clean and even had USB sockets in room which you still don't get in some of the older Premier Inns- helpful if you have forgotten your adapter...
- Celia120 (10/5): We were visiting family locally for 6 nights - A fabulous experience. We were cared for by a super friendly efficient team.
Our room was clean comfortable and quiet.
The food at breakfast and dinner was particularly tasty and great value for money.
An easy walk into the town.
- 529jodieo (10/5): Great! - Stay here often for work for the week. All rooms have been renovated and are lovely very modern with everything you could need. The breakfast room is new and big with all you can eat cooked and buffet.
The staff here are very helpful in particular Tanya. Every time I come she goes over and above, she is thorough and nothing is a problem for her. I would like to give a special thanks to her for Making my stay nice, when I’m working away from home.
The Toby carvery in the car park is brilliant always busy and very warm and comforting.
There is always car parking spaces and you do not have to pay for the car park which is a massive difference to all the other Premier inns, that can be up to £20 a night on top of your room stay.
- cunningham2024 (8/5): No digital radio on the TV - Very nice hotel. Good location. BUT NO digital radio on the TV. A real pain in the butt. This is the only Premier Inn that i can recall with no digital radio.
- 797hs (8/5): Exactly what we needed. - Very friendly staff and the comfiest bed Ive ever slept in. Check in and out easy, parking fantastic. Breakfast good but pastries not always topped up. I would definitely stay again x
- foghorn172017 (8/5): Up to their usual high standard - Positives:- Good price, good location, friendly helpful staff, great breakfast, clean and tidy, comfortable beds, if there was something additional you wanted you only had to ask.
Negatives;- Not much hanging space if staying a few days and the rooms can get very hot with no means of cooling them. Windows do not open and the minimum temp setting is 19 degrees
- Zoecooper86 (10/5): Always a great stay, perfect for Gullivers World - We have stayed here numerous times and will continue to do so. We use this as a base when we are going to Gullivers World (ten min drive away) and cannot fault the hotel at all. Check in always seamless, rooms spotless. We had a lovely evening meal served by Ellie and at breakfast our host was Pam. Both ladies went above and beyond and made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely both a real asset to the Premier Inn brand and the reason we will continue to stay here in the future. Breakfast was buffet style (so much better than our previous visit where it was cooked to order) I hope they continue with the buffet.
Just a little side note, if you want/feel the need to leave a tip, please bring cash so the staff definitely get it.
- 497malcolmb (8/5): A comfortable stay - We stayed here as a couple for two nights. We found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and well soundproofed, but with limited space to hang clothes. The food available in the restaurant was simple but very tasty. There was a good choice of food at the breakfast buffet. Overall we consider it to have been good value for money.
- Z2387SUstevep (10/5): Perfect - Ideally located just off A1. Great parking, convenience of onsite and local hospitality. Attentive staff. Comfortable room with more than adequate amenities.
- vickiec267 (10/5): Best hotel I've stayed in for a long time!! - It's not often I stay in hotels in the UK, but this place is by far 1 of the nicest I've ever stayed. The staff are so friendly and helpful, the rooms are great with most amenities you could need, like wifi, an ironing board, hairdryer, fridge and lots of plugs and sockets where you actually need them, plus the beds were so comfortable that I didn't want to get out! They were so accommodating, nothing was a problem and they even had gluten free bread for the breakfast which had such a good selectionas and being coeliac I really appreciated that. But a special mention must go to Janice on reception because she was so professional, kind, courteous and helpful! 10 out of 10 easily!!! Can't wait to return!!
- Vic_Tye (8/5): Fab as always but sort your food ordering! - As the title suggests :)
Had a lovely stay at this Premier Inn. The staff are a credit and the room was lovely and clean and a good size for my family (4) BUT
Half of the menu was unavailable, in this day and age that's not really acceptable, especially at the price for dinner that Premier Inn are charging.
Ran out of steak, no prawns, no soup, some desserts too
It did highlight the issue when we ate at a restaurant in Wadebridge and it was considerably cheaper & everything available
- Companion00341182842 (10/5): great stay - the room was a little small but really nice and the staff here were the absolute kindest. the view and the bathroom were both really good too
- debbiesQ4545KQ (10/5): Super brekkie and super Pam! - Amazing value and perfect location on route to Liverpool. Family room with all the amenities needed.
Breakfast is the best! Pam was wonderful, very attentive and helped our 2 very fussy children choose their breakfasts and my daughter the pancakes. She is a diamond. Can't beat Premier Inn for value and family friendly.
- ASM1968 (10/5): Very pleasant stay - I stay at Premier Inns very frequently and like this hotel chain. After the stay in the Premier Inn Team Valley, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of our Premier Plus room. Again very spacious with fridge and coffee machine as advertised. The room and bathroom were both clean and the bed very comfortable. The only drawback was that they didn’t have an in-house restaurant and we would have had to go to Tobey Carvery next door. Not a big fan of Tobey Carvery so we didn’t eat there. There aren’t many places to eat in Washington and many were closed on a Monday. Breakfast was served in a small area of the hotel but the buffet was well stocked and the food fresh. I can’t find fault with this Premier Inn other than missing an in-house restaurant. I was very pleased with our stay and would return again.
- andrewcZ5876CZ (10/5): Lovely, good value, great breakfast! - Had a break on a long drive at the end of a holiday here and it was lovely. Beds were comfy, service was great, no complaints at all!
Breakfast was great (as all premier inn breakfasts are) - unlimited everything and really good veggie options. Pam, running the breakfast,was a star and was so good to our kids- really made them feel welcome.
Very good value - 65 quid for four of us and breakfast.
- 491eliciap (10/5): Stop Over on the way to Scotland. - Lovely comfortable stay. The room was spotlessly clean. Bed was super comfortable. No noise from corridor or outside the hotel.
Perfect location for travelling to other parts of the UK just off the A1M.
Would definitely return again.
Thanks Premier Inn 😊
- christinewV1193ZJ (10/5): Amazing stay - This was the best Premier Inn we have stayed in, lovely room & bathroom with a walk-in shower & very clean. Breakfast was good & the staff were helpful & friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
- OldGrockle (4/5): Would not stay again - There was no-one on reception when I arrived, and quite a wait for them to appear, but accepted they were doing something else and was not a big deal. Apparently it is not possible to buy hot chocolate in the hotel/ restaurant.
The room was a standard Premier Inn room so was fine, although only had a shower, no bath. The remote control didn't work, and the toilet had not been cleaned - there was old sticky urine around the rim, which was unpleasant.
Mentioned the remote and the bathroom to the person on the desk when I left but they weren't interested.
- MJStavrou (10/5): Great place to stay the night - not far from Durham University - The mattress was incredibly comfortable extra pillows were available.
The staff were all amazingly helpful and friendly staff. A special thank you to David!
- lindacE3017BA (10/5): Helpful stafg - Very handy location. Cleanliness was very good in all areas been in white a few premier inns. It's one of the best it's nice to be able to eat in the hotel
- L1254IPrichardc (10/5): Very good value - Clean and friendly. Very good value for money. Bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good and the staff were very friendly
- MichaelWaring (10/5): Staff here are wonderful - The staff at Washington Premier Inn make the stay there very pleasant indeed.
They are all more than happy to do anything they can to help.
Having staff like that puts this hotel at the very top!
- Roam49092933460 (10/5): Very happy with my stay - I have stayed in many Premier Inns and this was one of the best.
I rang a few days beforehand and asked for a quiet top floor room as I had a long drive before and after my stay. When I arrived at the hotel a very friendly, polite young man remembered speaking to me on the phone and had sorted that out for me.
The room was very quiet, clean and comfy.
Parking was easy.
Easy access to the A1.
Tony carvery just next door so easy to get food and a pint.
- cressiday (10/5): Great stay and staff - I like a premier inn but this was a great one! Rooms were lovely, clean and quiet and there was plenty of parking. Breakfast was lovely and Sharon couldn’t do enough to help; she even brought me a freshly fried egg when there were none left. Highly recommended!
- K1919QZandyc (10/5): Simply fantastic service! Very homely! - The hotel is like many Premier Inn hotels or similar branded hotels. However, one thing that makes it stand out from the rest … is the exemplary service received from the attentive and welcoming staff .
We travel often with our family and typically need to stay in similar hotels around 20 times a year. We’ve never had better service than here at Washington.
At breakfast time, we were welcomed in and served by such lovely people. The lady and gentleman running the restaurant and cooking the breakfast were so pleasant and genuinely very impressive.
Yes the rooms are nice, clean and modern but the breakfast experience turned our rather simple and quick stay into a really positive experience that we just don’t seem to get nowadays. They clearly live their job and it was almost as though it was their hotel, their restaurant and not just a branded hotel.
We would definitely stay again without question… our whole family were in total agreement that this is the best Premier Inn they’ve ever stayed in (and they have been to many).
- paulwH529OG (6/5): Disappointed in the room. - Disappointed in the room, several things that we would normally expect be be in as standard were missing, not even a drawer to put your clothes in, probably ok if you were only staying a night but not ideal if staying a few days.
- sr12eve (8/5): Easy access- Fantastic Staff - Easy access location, GREAT staff.
Chosen primarily for access from our homes and to the points we wished to visit.
This premier inn would benefit from more disabled access rooms ( reducing by 50% was a step backwards).
The rooms were well enough equipped, but perhaps at least one bed would benefit from replacing. I really don't expect to feel mattress buttons.
The stand-out point was the charm and efficiency of our evening manager/receptionist. Nothing was too much effort, and any request had a solution ( except changing to another accessible room). Great customer service and an absolute asset to this hotel. She made our two night stay (Sunday and Monday) as easy as possible.
Because of her, I would consider staying again, although the B & B rate could compare better with other operators.
- L2652FEchrism (10/5): Amazing staff & service, could not fault. - Just spent 2 nights here and could not have been any better.
All staff very friendly and efficient, reception, breakfast and chef .
Room was spotless and wi-fi good throughout the building.
Breakfast was excellent and plenty of choices.
5 star review for a 5 star service.
- 789ihm (8/5): Short business trip - Short business trip
Decent rooms for functionality and clean with decent shower etc.
Good breakfast that start's early.
Plenty of parking.
Evening meal was chaotic on one day but good on the next...
- pamelah479 (10/5): Stay convenient to family with good breakfast service - Nice hotel, conveniently located near M62 and north west motorway connections. Breakfast was included and the service was very good. Pam greeted us both mornings with a cheery smile and was most helpful in our order and delivery of breakfast items. She is an asset to the hotel , managing the restaurant front of house single handed, at its most busy time! I would recommend this hotel for those looking to stay n the Warrington area. Reasonably priced too.
- swissjohnc (10/5): Excellent customer care - The young lady on duty at reception was exceptionally helpful and went out of her way to make sure our stay was comfortable. Her customer care and customer relation skills were excellent
- E8079OHjasonb (10/5): Great experience - Me and my family recently stayed at this hotel. The room was very clean. The staff are exstremly helpful and polite. The breakfast was excelent. We will defenitely stay at this hotel in the future.
- W6591GClindaw (2/5): Quite dissatisfied with this particular premier inn wouldn't go back - Very short on staff hardly anyone around. Couldn't have room cleaned due to lack of staff. Would have preferred to be able to open a window instead of air conditioning.
- Cornishkates (10/5): Great premier - Great premier with everything you can expect, clean comphy rooms, friendly staff and easy to access Wadebridge and the coast, fantastic location and would definitely recommend. We will come and stay again, loving local we like to get away for weekends and you do t have to go far!
- B6317VKlaural (10/5): Fantastic - Recently had a fantastic stay here with my husband. Room spotless, breakfast great and staff lovely and helpful. Looking forward to returning soon.
- samkN9172IO (10/5): Great for lobe female travellers - A great stay in a super clean hotel. The breakfast was great, staff were lovely and the dinner was brilliant value for money. Would definitely stay there again!
- stevepG7518ZK (10/5): Top Marks - We stayed here a couple of nights whilst visiting family in the area. The hotel was very busy but the staff were always pleasant and nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean and had everything we needed. We always look forward to a Premier Inn Breakfast as they are so good - this was exception!
- hpops1 (10/5): Great Hotel - Just The Job - We stayed 3 nights at the hotel and used its good location as a base to visit the lovely sights and beaches of Cornwall including Padstow, Port Isaac, Newquay and Boscastle. The room was a good size and very clean. All the team we met were friendly and extremely helpful. We had breakfast every day and it was always plentiful, hot and tasty. We only ate dinner in the restaurant once but again food was lovely. Definitely worth a visit - we will be back!
- clairepQ2932XW (10/5): Fantastic value for money - Lovely room which was well equipped - hair dryer, WiFi etc. Room was clean and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Great selection of food available as well. Would definitely visit again!
- jamesbates (10/5): Proper job! - In town for a big 40th birthday weekend. Great location just outside the town centre (parking can be a nightmare in Wadebridge in the summer). Rooms were clean, staff great & breakfast decent as ever.
10 minute walk into town and the Camel Trail etc. Would stay again.
- TauriC_12 (8/5): Welcoming, convenient and clean - Came up for the Women’s World Cup Rugby 2025 opening match. We found this hotel to be welcoming, terrific ladies on reception, clean and delighted that our twin room was actually a twin (rather than a double bed and sofa bed as in some PI) with a walk in shower (great as this is needed for ambulatory disabled person).
There is a good network of roads nearby so easy access to a number of places to visit. Close to Sunderland, Durham and Newcastle. It is not far from the coast, Northumberland National Park, North Pennines, North Yorkshire Moors National Park and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. There are plenty of National Trust sites to visit. This is a good hotel as a jumping off point to Scotland or Cumbria (the A69 is very scenic with several lovely villages along the way or the A66 or A684 are also quite scenic).
We spent two nights here and would certainly return if we are back up in that area.
- Trip61211689601 (10/5): Sunny Bank Holiday stay - We stayed for 2 nights over the August Bank Holiday. Plenty of free parking. Check in was quick and easy. Our room was spotlessly clean and spacious. Tea/coffee and kettle in room. On the second day we asked for extra towels, these were bought to our room very quickly. Easy walk into Wadebridge town centre. Apart from the 10.5 tog duvet in August (way to big during a Bank Holiday heatwave) we would stay again and recommend.
- 403yvonnen (10/5): Excellent hotel all staff very friendly - All staff extremely friendly and very helpful. Great location to explore Sunderland and stadium of light. Fresh decor inside and great food.
- roseanner580 (8/5): Nice stay, lovely staff - Was a nice stay, and had a lovely waitress called Pam greet and serv us breakfast :) made all the difference being met with a smile and kindness
- B1843JRemmac (10/5): Fantastic Staff - Lovely hotel, very quiet. Breakfast was delicious. The staff are amazing. We’ve stayed twice at this particular Premier Inn and we would again.
- Curious10457121047 (8/5): Delicious breakfast - Breakfast was delicious, only reason I didn’t give five star was because weirdly the hotel rooms don’t have air conditioning, they did have a fan in the room but as you can’t open the window very far the room was very hot.
- 11RJS (10/5): Convenient and friendly hotel - Stayed overnight here for a nearby family wedding. Rooms were spacious, beds comfortable, breakfast was great- everything you would want in a full English. Staff were amazing, so helpful and friendly. We had requested a downstairs room for my elderly mum and even though we arrived early it was sorted quickly and Ellie helped us settle into the room and couldn’t have been more helpful. It was easy to get a taxi via the taxi phone in reception. Would definitely stay here again.
- JC2713 (10/5): An enjoyable experience! - Very pleasant stay at this Premier Inn. Has all been refurbished to a high standard from what we saw. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful. Will definitely be staying here again.
- iainm9 (10/5): Thanks Pam! - Pam was awesome on breakfast service this morning - so helpful at sorting gluten free breakfast for my daughter. Thanks so much!! ❤️
- mrsw71 (8/5): Great location and inn would return - Wanted 5 out of 5 but couldn’t do lol. Great clean hotel , very welcoming and attentive staff. Breakfast good too. Room big and bright and comfy . Don’t go to Toby Carvery it’s appalling. All meat tough and veg over cooked tepid and sloppy. Counter full of food people had slopped . Staff couldn’t be bothered We went to champs sports bar at rear of
- MrReviewer21 (8/5): Better than some of the previous Premier Inns we have stayed in. - Watch out for the big pot hole near the exit. Surprised it hadn’t been filled. Although the entrance to the Inn building looks a little need of some tlc once inside it was fine.
Bit of a slight delay as room was not quite ready over an hour after 11am planned check in which we had paid extra for. Then given a cooler room.
Breakfast was ok, although air con made restaurant quite cool.
Staff very friendly and cheerful.
- dazdalzell (8/5): Armed Forces Day - This is an ideal place to stay for access to Warrington and surrounding areas.
The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The restaurant and bar staff were brilliant during our stay.
The food is great and the breakfast is a must.
Will definitely return again.
- Safari66347789418 (8/5): Armed Forces Weekend - Great staff and excellent location for our needs. The rooms are spacious and the restaurant serves great food. Breakfast is a must.
- NorthStar718388 (10/5): Great overnight stay - We came here when visiting gulivers world, great location and big room for the family. The breakfast staff Pam and Mia were so lovely and welcoming and very attentive to anything we needed. They offered my daughter colouring in which was a lovely touch at breakfast and always served us with a smile! Thank you so much for being nice and helpful x
- helenbY1019KZ (10/5): Such a relaxing stay, this premier inn definitely deserves a mention and recommendation. Would definitely use this place - Very clean establishment, staff very welcoming and friendly, bed very comfortable.
Lovely to be greeted so warmly at breakfast, thank you Pam for first class service. Breakfast was excellent and we ate too much. Would definitely use this place again.
- tobia373 (10/5): Great Premier inn experience as always :) - We stayed one night and had breakfast the next morning. Beds are always comfortable and the room is nice and cool thanks to the fan. We always love picking up the extra milk packets for our copious cup of tea requirements.
The food was cooked perfectly and we received great service from Pam in the restaurant. She accommodated our specific sausage cooking requirements and improved our morning :)
Will hopefully return again when we are near the area.
- Bibblemywibble (10/5): Comfortable place to stay with great staff! - Stayed here with friends while at the Neighbourhood Weekender festival. It’s a short taxi into Warrington centre.
It’s a typical premier in with regards the expected quality (clean rooms, comfy beds, good breakfast etc.) what made this enjoyable was the staff. Bag drop on Saturday morning before we could check in, really easy, as was check in at nearly midnight that night after a long day (and power walk back). I didn’t catch the names but both males on reception were great. We were also well looked after in the restaurant and reception on the Sunday & Monday by Sinead and Megan.
- davidwA3767TH (2/5): Not the usual Premier Inn reliability - Unfortunately the bathroom smelled of sewage/drainage which leached through into bedroom so we had a very poor night's sleep.
We asked for an alternative room but none available - with hindsight we should have stayed at home and woke up 2 hours earlier to go to the airport
- lukebJ7163YD (10/5): Comfort and service - Very comfortable beds and breakfast service was really good, Pam was very friendly. The breakfast itself was tasty and simple to order. Everything was set out for us too help ourselves to whatever we liked including cereal and various fruits
- glamoursistersm (10/5): Brilliant Hotel - Came here on a works couse! all the staff in the hotel are there for every need and in the restaurant attached lovely pam greets you goes above and beyond for you when you come in. highly recommend!!! Rooms clean and tidy for a restful nights sleep
