Premier Inn is the best 👌👌

This is one of the more unusual Premier Inns that I’ve visited owing to the unusual construction. The hotel fascia is a retained part of a long parade of original properties right on the front at Marine Parade and the branding (a bit worn) is so subtle that you could miss it from that side. Most of the body of the hotel, including the car park and reception, is built at the back of the retained property and is the usual type of modern construction which you’d expect for the chain. Inside there are all the usual amenities apart from an explicit bar. If you want a drink then sit in the restaurant and the waiting staff will serve you at table. My room was the usual high standard but the odd arrangement makes the residential part a bit of a warren. Using the stairs down from my room on the top floor I was disconcerted to find one flight down put me back on a corridor and I had to find another staircase to get the rest of the way down. In the process, however, I did discover how to use the exit onto the seafront. There is a lift of course but I always like to check the stairs and this was the only niggle I had.

Lovely hotel amazing location but the car park is awful , trying to find a space is impossible and you get charged £8 for 24 hrs, I had to drive around town at night trying to find a space and as a solo woman it made me feel very vulnerable
