London Holborn

This was the worst hotel stay I have ever experienced. I have always trusted Premier Inn and stay very regularly; you come to expect a certain standard of cleanliness, safety and service with the brand. On arrival, I noticed mould around the window and a damp smell in the room. (Photos show the mould). It was awful. I went straight to reception but they couldn’t do anything as the hotel was full. I was offered a free breakfast as compensation but I felt the issue could not be solved with a free breakfast and didn’t want them to think that was sufficient recompense. I had also made other plans for breakfast. The receptionist said we could move rooms the following day but we would have to pack our bags first thing and leave them in reception. As we had valuables and electronics, I didn’t want to do this either, as we were out for the whole day and evening. The photo attached shows how bags are stored in the reception area so you can see why I chose not to take this option. Bags were left on show and in view of the street outside with open access through the main doors. No staff were on reception or in the lobby on a very regular basis during our stay so bags are simply left unattended and not securely stored. I complained via the website on my return and was given a £63 refund against a total cost of £265. To me, this is unacceptable and in no way reflects the level of discomfort and uncleanliness we encountered. It completely spoilt our stay. I will never stay in a Premier Inn again.

Most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. I had to sleep in the bath tub!!!! Also what looked like blood and vomit stains on pillow and duvet!! Reported bed but receptionist not interested! I put a complaint in online on 1st Jan and got an acknowledgment saying to give it 20 days. It’s more than that now and I’ve heard nothing.

Really love this hotel. Has everything u need and just off the busy streets. Convenient access to central London. Breakfast and service are very good indeed. Beds are so comfy and all you would expect in a Premier Inn Hotel. Great value for money.

We went to celebrate 70th birthday, theatre trip & Chelsea flower show .Hotel was great location for both , friendly staff excellent value . We had breakfast and dinner both well cooked and good choice would highly recommend

Had a great stay at PI Holborn. On arrival, check in staff looked very harassed, but after that, all other staff were very friendly and courteous. Breakfast was very good, evening meal good apart from chips, which weren,t great. Waiting staff were very nice, especially Krisi and Sameera.
