Premier Inn, Charing Cross Glasgow

Advantages: Close to town and all amenities
Disadvantages: none

...I have never stayed in the Premier Inn before, but I felt I had to share my experience of the past weekend. The staff in both reception and the restaurant were fantastic, they were really helpful and made you feel right at home. The room and bathroom were both spotless, warm and the freeview television meant that my daughter didn't miss her soaps while she was away. The bed was both big and comfortable and we didn't have any trouble getting to sleep. We opted for the breakfast deal and we were not disappointed, the food was well cooked and warm there was also plenty of choice. Access to the hotel was excellent for both able bodied and non-able bodied people, we didn't have a wheelchair but we did have a six month old baby and a pram, and even though it is situated next to Charing Cross rail station we didn't hear a thing from...

The Inn and I

Advantages: centrally located, reasonable room rates
Disadvantages: no parking, as it's on a main road some noise is possible

...Having attended a conference here before in one of the conference suites, and having stayed overnight at the hotel a few month's ago, I felt it was time to post a review of the Inn on Ciao. ~ The location ~ Jury's Inn Croydon is situated on the A212, Wellesley Road in central Croydon. This is one of the busiest roads in the borough and the hotel is only about a ten minute walk from mainline East Croydon station and the smaller West Croydon station. There are numerous buses that stop virtually right outside the hotel, which serve south London, as well as several tramstops nearby making it easily accessible to Wimbledon, amongst other places. ~ On arrival ~ The hotel is only a few years old, and the exterior of the building is clean and modern. There are about 8 or 9 floors of bedrooms in this hotel, with the first floor...

The Mill Inn - - the inn on the canal

Advantages: Lovely location, comfortable and friendly
Disadvantages: None that I can see

...The Mill Inn was converted from an old grain mill in 1992 into a 15 bedroom hotel, set in its own intensive grounds - it was then known as Thurnham Mill. Last year it had a major refurbishment and its name was changed to The Mill Inn. The Mill Inn is part of the Mitchells chain. Mitchells of La ncaster Istarted in 1871, William Mitchell signed the lease on his very first pub and brewhouse - The Black Horse Inn, in Lancaster. Now Mitchell's of Lancaster is still family owned and the group consists of sixty pubs and five hotels, covering the city, coast and countryside of North Lancashire and South Cumbria. The Mill Inn was converted from an old grain mill in 1992 into a superb 15 bedroom well-appointed hotel, set in its own igardens, and has recently undergone a major refurbishment. The Mill Inn is on the very edge...

"LOCKED" INN . . .

Advantages: lovely rooms, great food, good location, easily accessible
Disadvantages: could be noisy at night

...This week I stayed at the Holiday Inn Camden Lock for three nights while I was in London for work. My only previous trips to London have had me staying in the ExCel Novotel in Docklands so this was a new experience for me. LOCATION The hotel is located in Camden, next to (predictably!) Camden Lock. It is about a five minute walk from Camden Town tube station, which makes it fairly convenient if you?re having to use public transport to reach it. The website states that the hotel is also outwith the congestion zone, which I guess means you could drive down to the hotel and then use it as a base to get elsewhere using the tube or buses. (Although its worth noting that the website also states the car parking facility is 1km away!) As it is right off the main street, it is very handy for all the shops, restaurants and bars too. Which...

The Mussel inn

Advantages: Good quality mussels, good lunchtime deal
Disadvantages: Expensive if paying for a full price evening meal.

...The Mussel Inn is a seafood restaurant specialising in mussels, oysters and scallops. The Glasgow restaurant is at 157 Hope Street in the city centre and the Edinburgh one is at 61 Rose Street. I have only been to the Glasgow restaurant and so will primarily be reviewing that location. First of all for anyone with environmental concerns the seafish is all from renewable sources from the lochs and sea lochs of Scotland's west (atlantic) coast. The reason that I discovered the Mussel Inn was that my mum was lured in by their lunchtime deal and then brought me along another time to experience it. The deal is on mondays to fridays from opening to 5pm and consists of a large bowl of mussels in a choice of sauces (I recommend the cream, shallots and white wine which is the best for mussels!) with salad or chips, as much bread as you want...

The Riverside Inn

Advantages: Great location, modern rooms, good value for money, great food
Disadvantages: None

...I recently started a Diploma in Canine Massage and in order to start this course, I needed to travel to Devon and attend a workshop. I also needed to take one of my dogs with me so I set out in a mission to find a hotel or B & B that would allow me to have my dog stay with me. The Riverside Inn was recommended to me by the tutor that runs the course (as the course is actually held in their function room) and they also allow dogs to stay in the rooms. So I booked my stay and headed off on my long drive to Devon? Cost I booked myself into a single room which cost me £45 a night. This price also included a full English breakfast. As I already mentioned, I had my dog Dax staying with me and I had to pay another £5 per night for him to be in the room. The Room Upon first entering my room, I was actually really impressed...

Come Inn!

Advantages: *
Disadvantages: *

...~ Introduction ~ During half term there was an open day at De Montfort University, Leicester. As this is my second choice university I wanted to visit before I made my final decision. As it's over a four-hour drive from where I live my parents booked us into a hotel. They chose the Holiday Inn as it is located in the city centre and we have stayed in this chain of hotels before. The hotel had 188 rooms with double beds and air-conditioning. It is currently undergoing refurbishment so we could smell paint on the floor we were staying on though this was stated online when we booked. ~ Priority Rewards ~ My dad is a member of the Priority Rewards scheme, which gives you points for staying in hotels in their chain (on any of the 6 continents). You can then exchange the points for a free stay in one of their hotels. These hotels...

Holiday Inn, Oxford (Peartree Roundabout)

Advantages: Modern, great location, excellent facilities
Disadvantages: Can be expensive if not booked through a deal

..., bath foam/shower gel and body cream, a shower cap, nail file, sewing kit and shoe shine. The main feature of the rooms is that they include wooden shutters instead of curtains which are extremely effective at blacking out the room. Internet Access High-speed Internet access is available in all rooms. It costs £14.99 for 24 hours or £75.00 for a week. Price The hotel can be very expensive if you just turn up and ask for a room so it is best to pre-book or keep an eye out for the many deals that Holiday Inn offers on its website or in the national press. I usually pay between £50 and £75 per room per night which includes a substantial breakfast, although the hotel regularly offers a deal over a weekend where you get two nights bed and breakfast and one dinner for two people for approximately £99 per room per night. Having...

An oddly named Inn. but one of my favourites!

Advantages: Menu offers something a little different
Disadvantages: None

...The Rat Inn was built around 1750 and can be found in the scenic hamlet of Anick, which is approximately 1 mile from the historic market town of Hexham, here in Northumberland. It is easily reached from the A69 which runs from Newcastle to Carlisle, and I have enjoyed a few meals there since my partner introduced me to it a few years ago. After leaving the A69 you drive up a hill to reach The Rat Inn, and because of its location, there are stunning views over Hexham and the Tyne Valley. There is a car park and roadside parking available. A Little History ~~~~~~~~~~~ Just how the Rat Inn came by what is probably one of the oddest names for an Inn in Britain remains shrouded in mystery. The locals have some interesting theories, from it once being a regular meeting place for all the local rat catchers, to a theory that the largest rat...

Inn & Out

Advantages: Clean room; Polite staff; Easy online booking
Disadvantages: No heating; The breakfast; The location

...nearer 8 hours than 6). I arrived at Pontypool station at 5pm on a cold, windy day in what looked like monsoon season; I don’t think I had ever been so glad to see a hotel as I was then. Admittedly, Holiday Inn Express wouldn’t be my first choice of accommodation (previous experience had taught me that they were lacklustre at best) but there was nothing else locally available outside of summer season, and at least it was close to the county museum I would be visiting the next day. **Where exactly…?** Let me start by explaining where this place is – I am aware that I got a lot of blank looks when I told people I was off to Pontypool! Torfaen is in the South East corner of Wales, not all that far from Newport. However, just to be awkward, the museum I wanted was not in Newport (relatively easy to get to) but...
