Ross-on-Wye

I visited the Premier Inn, Ross-on-Wye, where I was booked to stay in July 2025 for three days. Having been away for most of the day on the 2nd day, I returned to the hotel at approximately 8:30 pm, to be told by the reception staff that the hotel was closed. No offer to find alternative accommodation (perhaps at one of their other hotels) was made, instead, my friends and I were told to try to find accommodation 14 or 15 miles away in Hereford. I am 76 years of age, suffering from ill health, so to be given no other option but to look for accommodation and somewhere to eat, late at night, irrespective of budget, or drive home, a 150-mile journey in the dark, was simply outrageous. I was on a 3-day break with friends, so my break was ruined. Had anyone consumed alcohol, they would have been unable to drive and forced to sleep in the car park. Fortunately, I did not consume alcohol. To add insult to injury, upon returning home, I received a form to fill in, asking me to report how much I had enjoyed my visit. So much for Premier Inn’s motto “a great night's sleep”! On my return, I complained to the head office, and without even asking, was told that under no circumstances would they offer any compensation (I was hoping to be compensated for my fuel costs). I later discovered that the hotel was closed due to an infestation (earwigs), so understandably, it had to close but their attitude to customer care was shameful.

We paid £122 to share our room with cockroaches, in the bed and bathroom (crawling over our toothbrushes). Rubbish nights sleep bc we had to sleep with the light on. Room too hot, no aircon. Don't recommend. Reception staff were good though.

Location is rubbish for access to the local area… made even more of an issues when the restaurant and bar are closed with no prior warning and no support offered in getting to another venue to have an evening meal. I get that things happen but how you react to those show what you really think of customer satisfaction and their experience of staying at your hotels. You failed miserably.

1 member if staff doing 3 jobs, customers booking in, at the bar and serving meals. Appalling behaviour from Premier Inn managers. Treat your staff respectfully.

Excellent standard as always at Premier Inn.Clean room,comfy bed,good facilities,lovely view,peaceful,lovely food in restaurant,good value,friendly staff,nothing too much trouble,highly recommend.Always a first choice for accommodation anywhere in UK.

Just received a PCN from my stay here. Although i entered my car details, maybe i put a letter O instead of a Zero .. maybe I entered the wifes car instead of mine .. who knows. As a contractor i can spend 10k in a year on P Inn or T Lodge stays and not had this before so i guess its best to avoid this specifc hotel. Shame as the staff are v pleasant
