Premier Inn Clacton-On-Sea (Seafront)

Good location, clean room, outstanding mattress!! Will come again

This hotel absolutely falls short of what you should expect from a Premier Inn. Whilst you expect basic, the package is usually delivered to a reasonable standard, this hotel didn’t meet the mark. Location-wise the hotel was great for where I was working. Parking was sufficient. Outside of the above, unfortunately the perks end there. There is little-to-no phone signal in the hotel. I couldn’t make any texts/calls in the room and signal was non-existent in the reception and restaurant. The free WiFi was poor and did not allow me to be able to complete any work on my laptop. The restaurant has an EXTREMELY limited menu. Unless you have dinner included, I highly recommend you dine elsewhere due to the lack of choice. The rooms require an overhaul. Hygiene was not the best and as you will see in other reviews the interior is beginning to show its age.

Exceptionally great service and delicious breakfasts served. The warm and friendly staff made us want to stay longer. The beautiful seaviews from the bedroom was a great way to start the day. Just a short walk away from the beach and amusement park made it the perfect location for a family looking for a break away at the sea side. Will definitely be back soon.

We booked a sea view room but could not open the window. The room because hot and stuffy and the air conditioning was much use. The table was battered and needed repair as did the shower head which had one setting only. The TV played up and did not have all the channels working. I am loyal long time user of premier inn and was disappointed - the breakfast was ok but the bread was low and you had to ask for it and the toasters took ages too toast bread. The coffee machine had also run out of latte. Cooked food was good though.

The receptionist on arrival was very helpful. But that's were it ends the room was dirty there was crumbs on the floor bits hanging of the edge of the table there was loads of dust on the head board. The soap dispenser was empty. The hair dryer kept cutting off and when I looked at the pat test on the hair dryer it was a year out off date .we were booked to stay here Christmas but now we have cancelled due the state off the room

I required an accessible room with twin beds but on check in the room was made up as a double. However the staff were extremely helpful and fixed the issue immediately. The breakfast was more than adequate and again pleasant helpful staff. Easy car parking and central location if you need to be in that areas. I haven’t stayed at a Premier Inn before and tbh my expectations were low but I felt it was good value for the money
