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.

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.
