Guest Reviews
- joshcW9545LC (10/5): Fantastic experience - Lovely Team - Absolutely wonderful service and experience from start to finish, Jordan was very helpful with my enquiry about charging in the car park. Professional and friendly as well were all the staff. Jasmine, Jayne and Paula. All the team went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience. I really enjoyed the breakfast and I'd look forward to coming again if I'm up here working.
- Ljungberg2 (10/5): A fantastic warm welcome; great good & great atmosphere. - We returned to the hotel for a short stay after undergoing major surgery earlier in the year. Upon arrival we were cheerfully welcomed by Tyler & Iestyn who immediately asked how the operation went and how I was feeling. Then we checked into our room and there was a pleasant surprise - a welcome back card and treats courtesy of Jayne, Head of Housekeeping. The personal touch was superb and sincerely appreciated. The atmosphere was great and the food exceptional. The sea bass was cooked to perfection and the best we’ve had in Pembrokeshire for a long time. Having an on site car park is so beneficial as well - a huge plus.
- ScareyClott (6/5): Not a good night's sleep. - We have stayed at Premier Inns all over the UK. This was the first time that we were kept awake during the night by excessive noise. It was impossible to tell whether the crowd of voices and drum&bass music was coming from outside or inside the hotel but it was still going strong after 3am.
Hotel very clean, staff helpful at check-in.
- MarkyP264 (8/5): Where's The Staff At? - I need an overnight stop whilst working in the area, I also added an early check in to my room.
I found the hotel easily and also parked easily, loads of spaces and also some electric charging bays (bonus!). I had to wait a while to check in, which was frustrating as I wanted to check in and get some rest before work.
The room itself was typical Premier Inn fare, i.e. roomy, clean and comfortable.
Checking out also took a while, but all in all it was a good stay in a decent Premier Inn.
- timmV4156IE (10/5): Great room and staff at a good price - Friendly staff helped us check in. Really nice room and comfy beds, nice breakfast the following morning. Couldnt find a fault at all.
- J6903MNjacquib (10/5): Friendliest Ever Staff - From reception to kitchen staff were all so friendly, best ever in Premier Inn. Special shout out to Jayne, Lou, Paula, Holly, Gordon, Ash and Will
- buddharocks44 (10/5): A very comfortable bed. - Stopped for one night as the bed in our rented cottage aggravated my back and I could'nt stay the last night there.
I am pleased to say that I had a wonderful nights sleep after 3 days in pain.
Good customer service and great breakfast,which as a Whitbread shareholder comes free.
Thank you.
- sarahgH828XT (10/5): Clean and comfortable - Clean and comfortable Premier Plus room in this city centre hotel. Our room was at the back of the hotel so it was extremely quiet and we had a really good sleep. Great location with car park very close. There’s no restaurant there at the moment but that’s not really a problem as there are many many places to eat in St Albans. Value for money and very comfortable.
- Curious45731905730 (10/5): Happy customer - This hotel was one of the best we stayed in. Comfy bed, very clean and tidy. Very quiet and only a short walk to st davids. The shower was to die for and over all the best choice. We will be back for sure
- alanwH3759KI (4/5): Not great. - We booked this premiere inn hotel as a convenient 1 night stay for a family party in St Albans. When we arrived the restaurant,bar and toilets were closed for refurbishment, of which we were not informed, to add to this major disappointment, there is a night club next door which our room was next too, very noisy, with people outside smoking and shouting, therefore no sleep until after 3.00 am. Will definitely not be staying there again.
- Maps55993097712 (10/5): Amazing staff - What astonishingly friendly, courteous staff. From plasters for our grandchild to squeezing us in when we had forgotten to book a meal.
- Fatbadger247 (4/5): Poor for a Premier Inn - Booked this hotel as the endpoint of a 70 mile ultramarathon, arroving on foot knowing I'd have a decent sized cooked breakfast the morning after, to recover.
The website said breakfast was available.
The "reminder" emails in the run-up to our stay suggested we book breakfast.
Got downstairs in the morning, ravenous.
To be told - no breakfast due to refurbishment. And we should have had an email - we definitely didn't (and neither had other guests). Just a few pastries in the corner of reception. Gutted is an understatement.
The desk had been removed from the room, so nowhere to put stuff other than a small coffee table, and the floor.
Room overlooked a nightclub and we could hear the thumping bass at night.
Staff never responded to the two emails I sent in the runup to our stay.
All in all, poor, way below expectations for a Premier Inn.
- nigelp875 (6/5): Not improved by room refurbishment. - The ground floor was closed so no breakfast or meals available (no notice given on booking)
There was one set of towels in the room despite being booked for 2 - no phone so had to go to reception to ask for towels in person.
Room seems to have been refurbished, but has no safe and desk has been removed leaving power sockets in the air, with no place for devices to be stored or placed for charging except on bedside tables. Clean room and bathroom with extra bed so good value overall
- D5001DZadeleg (10/5): The best night - Just perfect ,lovely staff ,easy check in clean room and amazing breakfast amd breakfast staff, so welcoming and nothing too much , especially holly,matty and breakfast lady ,thoroughly enjoyed
- tinabG5255DX (10/5): A great stay in St Davids - We spent a very enjoyable three nights at the St Davids Premier Inn. Easy to park, a very warm welcome at reception and a comfortable, cosy room.
- S7963CCalanr (10/5): Birthday visit treat - Nahal and Aman at the St Albans city hotel were absolutely exceptional with us during our stay. Nahal overheard that it was my daughter’s 13th birthday and arranged brought a chocolate brownie and a birthday badge to our table and presented it. They were both brilliant and I hope they can be recognised for there amazing service they made the whole family’s day.
- aspatriamorgan2016 (6/5): Check where your room is against the locality of the night club only yards away. - This hotel is based 5 yards away from the Veeda night club which operates Friday and Saturday's from 11 p.m antil 4 a.m. On the Friday night we were wakened at 11.30 p.m with people standing outside with their drinks shouting , then the beat of the music continued until 4 a.m. Needless to say we had no sleep .This may not be a problem for some, but it was for us. We asked to be moved for the Saturday night which was no problem. You can see how close the club is to the hotel when you book in. Everything else was fine for our stay.
- B7364DHpauld (10/5): From reception to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. - From reception to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations.
- The hotel was easy to find.
- The location was great with a very conveniently short walk to town.
- All staff throughout my stay were very helpful and welcoming.
- The keycard-based access security was easy to use and reassuring.
- Signage was clear and accurate.
- My room was clean and tidy.
- The facility was very quiet.
- The bathroom was spotless and the shower was the best I can remember in any similarly priced hotel (and some more expensive)
- The hot and continental breakfasts were great value and offered a great selection, including items suitable for my vegan diet.
All in all, I very much enjoyed my stay, despite the weather while I was there!
I will definitely book there again the next time I am in town for the Boia Music Festival.
- Loveabitofsunshine (4/5): Poor customer service and food - Staff need training on customer service and listening skills. Upon arrival at the entrance to the restaurant a member of staff shouted from behind the bar rather than him taking the time to walk over. He shouted ‘what do you want’ - the response was ‘food’!
Poor food and numerous complaints in the restaurant, including incorrect food being served even though the requirements were reiterated more than once.
If you have to stay here don’t bother with the restaurant.
- leoniej997 (4/5): Avoid! Poor premier inn stay - Location said there was parking however no parking on arrival, have to pay in an NCP car park.
No clear understanding of what has been booked per guest and confusion over meals etc.
Majority of the staff haven’t a clue what they are doing.
The chef was a trainee and all food came out fumbled, had to send food back multiple times due to the wrong things being sent out.
Breakfast selection was poor, majority of the unlimited breakfast wasn’t available as there was none cooked throughout the breakfast times.
Rooms smelt damp on entering them, downstairs toilet also very damp smelling and mould in the toilet areas.
There was a lot of people unhappy with their food during the evening meal time and the atmosphere felt very hostile.
Would not recommend staying here, was a shame.
- emilymT7831QN (10/5): Great stay! - Lovely stay! It was very clean and the bed was very comfy. The location is brilliant and would definitely go back to this hotel.
- W9144NGtinaw (10/5): Lovely hotel - We really enjoyed our stay ,Emma the manager was very friendly and accommodating,we will return. Very nice breakfast ,thank you
- smiffy25_4 (10/5): Family party - Nice hotel , room clean and tidy, a good location for a night out in St Albans, all you can eat breakfast, would stay there again
- Travel63972475697 (10/5): Great Stay - Enjoyed our stay at St Albans, staff were very helpful - nothing was too much trouble! Nice to see the hotel being renovated
- Mishys1190 (10/5): Top stay - Excellent hotel, rooms incredibly clean, staff very helpful and knowledgeable about the local area, would come again when I’m in the area
- tljtimpani (10/5): Excellent training week - We were a group of about thirty, staying in St David's for a residential training week, Monday to Friday. We had four nights, four breakfasts and four evening meals at the Premier Inn, and used the St David's cathedral education centre and restaurant during the day.
The Premier Inn was frankly excellent. The rooms were spotless, the beds were comfortable, the food was consistently good, with enough variety on the menu for everyone to be happy through the week. But what made it better than good was the attitude of the staff: we were genuinely welcomed, and through the whole week the staff were cheerful, efficient and whenever we had any kind of problem they were immediately helpful.
As a package, the whole thing worked well: good accommodation and meals, a pleasant 15 minute walk (or 3 minute drive) to the education centre, and really pleasant, competent staff. We had a very positive week.
- SummertimeLady (10/5): Birthday treat. - Excellent stay in a lovely area. Friendly staff on arrival and throughout our stay.We paid extra for a room with a nice view and was not disappointed.It was my birthday and on arriving to our room the staff had left me a small bottle of wine and a card. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice, we had evening meal on 2 nights, which was very nice. Would we stay again?absolutely.
- kemmih2025 (4/5): Rudeness - There was a mix up with the rooms where we got a 3 bed room but booked a 4 bed room
Breakfast was okay at first but the next morning half of the food wasnt there and barely any staff
- wendygM6722ZZ (10/5): St David's, Pembrokeshire - We spent 3 nights at St David's Premier Inn in October 2025. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. The hotel had a friendly atmosphere and was very clean and well presented.
- louB765HJ (10/5): We'll be back!! - We had another lovely stay at St Davids. The staff were very attentive and friendly.
The room was clean and comfortable and we slept well. The only downside was lack of suitable coffee pods provided.
Will definitely be back for another stay.
- heath922 (10/5): Relaxing short break. - The hotel is very clean, both restaurant and rooms. Check in was easy, so was validating the car registration for free parking.
Our room was spacious and we had a bath and shower.
The meal deal is great, I'm vegan and had several choices. My partner enjoyed the fish and chips and the gammon. Plenty of breakfast options too.
Staff were friendly and helpful too.
The hotel is within easy walking distance of the city centre and we could leave the car safely parked while going off exploring.
The only small let down was the free WiFi which was so slow that we gave up trying to use it.
- worldgirl87 (10/5): Comfortable stay - Excellent and comfortable stay before a day out at alton towers. Slept very well. Room was clean and plenty towels . Tea and coffee available. Breakfast was very good with plenty choice. Staff were friendly and helpful at checkin.
- susantU2340PO (2/5): Bad experience - I had to move in as there was work being done in the flats where I live, I arrived 12th October, there was one seat in the room which was badly marked on the seat so could not use it but that was the only seat in the room so it was very uncomfortable to have to sit on the bed to watch TV.
On the Friday i had to ask reception if we could have some clean towels and the room cleaned as it had not been touched all week, when I arrived back in the Saturday evening the room had not been touched and there was no clean towels either.
I will not stop in another premier inn again as I think this is not good enough.
- B9805VSnaomih (8/5): Weekend stay - Diolch i chi. The staff, namely Sue and Chris, were lovely. Room was comfortable, clean and spacious. A quiet, convenient location. Breakfast was plentiful and fresh.
Self- check in is not ideal, as guests may have questions. However, we will be back, thank you.
- vicsclassicautos (2/5): Not worth the money - This was the most expensive premier inn I have ever paid .
It was over £150 a night.
The classic bike show was on at stafford and the location was good however if I had known I was going to stay at faulty towers I would have rather booked elsewhere and traveled further.
The toilet seat was broken and there was no aircon ...the window only opened about 6 inches and most of the staff miserable .
The hotel looked like a building site and the restaurant was shut .
For the inconvenience I was offered a very very poor takeaway breakfast which never arrived the first morning and the second morning it was there but not worth having.
Complained and still waiting for a partial refund of £80
- A215UTandyk (8/5): Peaceful location - Good sleep and good location, Breakfast good but not replenished when options used,Also Adjoining pub for food in the daytime the shire horse was expensive .
- kellylouisew897 (10/5): Clean & comfortable night away - Had an amazing stay here last weekend in thier newly refurbished rooms, staff were so friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in the area.
- Vikki280493 (10/5): Great stay :-) - Great place to stay, nice and central, refurb looks brilliant it has really freshened up the place and staff are very friendly, would recommend a stay here!
- Fymruk (10/5): Couples weekend stay - We stayed here last weekend, great location, newly refurbished room which was clean and spacious and the staff were polite, friendly and welcoming!
Would highly recommend if you need to stay in this area ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
- hayleyl710 (4/5): Renovation made stay not great - Unfortunately this was being renovated and therefore the experience wasn’t as good as previous premier inns. We were not made aware of the renovations until we checked in. The floor being renovated was the floor we were on which was not appropriate or safe to stay on this floor. Very disappointed stay from a chain I like to use regularly.
- billsaunders (2/5): Check the schedule for the night club opposite the hotel before booking...... - This hotel would be fine if a night club (Club Veeda) was not situated immediately in front of the building.
It is open Thursdays to Sundays from 1030pm to 0330am, and makes sleep impossible if your room is at the front of the hotel.
As with many other reviewers we a) had a sleepless night, and b) were refused compensation under Premier Inns Good Night's Sleep guarantee as the source of the noise was not from the hotels premises. Not done with good grace either.
We argued that at the very least we should have been advised of the problem so that we could book elsewhere. That clearly is not part of their business plan.
We visit St Albans frequently for family reasons, and have avoided staying at this hotel since, even though in many ways it would be the most convenient for us.
- pomme1uk (10/5): Hurricane - Had a great experience here, did have an issue with the room, but when we approached the friendly staff we were quickly and professionally dealt with, and offered a new room.
All the staff were great, especially on the Tuesday morning, despite being late down to breakfast we were looked after by the wonderful Paula (chef), Jayne, Tash, and Jord. Nothing was too much trouble.
Will definitely stay again.
Thanks!
- 857stepheng (6/5): Don't have Room 102... - We always stay at the Hurricane Hotel to break the journey when we come back down from visiting my elderly Mother in Lancashire, so we have stayed a few times now. We often joke that we have to walk miles to our room as it is normally at the far end of the building. Not this time though... We were in room 102 which is on the first floor directly above reception and opposite the door to the lift. So we had constant banging noises from the doors (not loud, just irritating and disturbing) throughout the night (even in the early hours of the morning). This was a disappointment as 99 times out of 100 we always have a great stay at Premier Inns. I shall just remember to ask for a room away from the reception area next time we stay.
The guest(s) in the room above must not have got their allotted steps in for that particular day as they were constantly pacing up and down the room! (Not that the hotel is responsible for this issue.)
- c898dba (8/5): All fine, a calm and quiet hotel - My 2nd stay here. No sign of bedbugs as previous reviews mention, so don't be put off. The room was spotlessly clean. Everything you come to expect from a Premier Inn. It's quiet and functional. Sleep quality was good.
2 minor negatives:
The check in experience was underwhelming. Nobody on the desk on arrival nd just a self check in machine. When I was struggling, a young lad who was working by the bar just said "how are you getting on with the machine?". Nobody actually greeted me or said "welcome/hello" or explained about the restaurant etc. The hotel does seem to lack that human touch.
Also, the food in the attached restaurant is below average. Quite pricey considering the small portions that you get. I only ate there two or three times.
Other than that, good value overall and I had a pleasant stay.
- iangQ6171RV (10/5): Bikers Delight - access all routes - Clean and tidy, with welcoming and helpful staff. Plenty of parking though no specialised for motorcycles. Room was spot on, large, well appointed warm, quiet, and clean. Breakfast was well organised and plentiful.
- A1712SNrichardk (10/5): Acknowledgement to the Chef (Will) - We had a great stay as usual and I wanted to write that the Chef (Will), was fantastic. As I am a plant based eater. Will always ensured that I was well catered for.
So a big thank you !
- suzanneo413 (10/5): Helpful,m & approachable staff, modern amenities, nice spaces! - Stated different premier is in the UK and this is by far my favorite. I have found most of the staff consistently approachable, professional, and helpful. It’s also very clean hotel, well designed with all the modern amenities. The restaurant is really nice - and clean.
I’ve been here twice now, a year apart — last summer and just this past week. Tara at the front desk was incredibly helpful both times!
- S2619RDdavidc (10/5): Clean and comfortable. A reliable choice - Premier Inns are convenient, clean and comfortable with a good range of breakfast choices. Only one downside - toasters are a bit slow!
- maM7733IF (10/5): best premier inn in the UK - the friendliest staff team i have ever experienced and it made my teams 3 days stay perfect, they were so professional and helpful a real credit to their organisation - clone the team and put them in hotels throughout the UK as they could all learn from them we wish them all well and will stay there again when we return on our next business trip to the area perfect!!
- liseanneg2016 (10/5): Great hotel - BEWARE FREE PARKING - Great hotel in a lovely location but beware free parking. Just received TWO £100 parking fines for the 2 days I stayed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- 36carolynj (10/5): Great visit as always - Another great stay. Staff attentive, accommodation comfy and clean, location great. Toby? who served us for our evening meal was great. We will be back
- H8022TEmarkf (10/5): Lovely stay - What a lovely start to my holiday, hotel was clean and well managed and the staff were friendly and helpful.

- rhianw505 (10/5): Excellent - Excellent location, amenities, service and value for money. Spacious & clean rooms. Highly recommended for a short, family stay.
- jamessN946VK (10/5): Good customer service - Martin was kind and cheerful. Tom gave me an extra fan to cool my room. The room on the ground floor is cooler. Checkin was strictly after 3pm. The building was quiet.
- MT1045 (10/5): The Business Trip at Premier Inn Hurricane North Stafford - Maryam at the reception was fantastic! She was warm, welcoming, and made a great first impression. Excellent service!
- joycebJ6941GP (8/5): Great stay. - Great stay. Staff incredibly friendly & helpful. Room very good, great shower. Food fairly basic but good. Handy for St David’s centre.
- johnhW485VN (10/5): Calming experience - First time visit to premier inn st.davids. After a hot weather and busy schedule previous week this is just what I needed. Modern building with free parking and went bed and breakfast, everything I expected was there. I will return.
