Premier Inn Eastbourne (Polegate)

Simple and efficient hotel. Clean but needs a little TLC. Although there is a renovation happening the disruption is limited between 10-6pm. The staff are friendly although strangely they insist on you making a reservation for dinner and the space isn’t busy. The soap dispenser in my room is rusty which was weird. But the room is big enough and fairly comfortable.

Really lovely helpful staff but it needs an upgrade . All the carpets are stained . No lift, so we struggled to get bags up stairs . Noisy fans rather than air conditioning . Lots of MacDonald’s rubbish around the front . Good breakfast but evening meal choice was very beige and all drinks were in cans . I guess the building work next door is part of improvements being made . Hope it sorts this out !

Staff were all fab as all the premier inn I've stayed at nothing wrong with people who work there Room same as normal bit dated But it's the new restaurant they look nice it's just the menu is shocking nothing decent on it my company use premier inn i have to have the meal deal that they pay for and I normal pay a bit extra for the upgrades there's no meat on the menu so no mix grill But there are a few premier inn have done this conversation with a small restaurant in the hotels because beefeater has closed but they seriously need to look at the menu it's shocking I've used shocking instead of what I wanted to put

This is a reasonably priced hotel in an uninspiring location, with good parking, quiet and reasonable rooms and decent food (dinner and breakfast deal was good value and breakfast in particular was good). Staff were friendly and helpful. On the negative side, the standard wifi is very slow, the rooms could be described as basic (no tissues, limited storage, seating, no telephone to reception). Most annoyingly the hotel is hidden away in a dip in Polegate Services. The image on the website gives the impression that it will be easily identified but on arriving at the satnav location it cannot be seen. Some better directions would be appreciated

We have stayed here before as its an ideal central location for visiting the coastal area. In fairness the hotel is undergoing refurbishment and the general ambience is of a building site outside The room itself was up to the usual standard. Clean, comfortable with a nice powerful shower and bath. Wifi was hit and miss but ok for casual use. Parking was free once you logged on. The restaurant was also a work in progress. Scruffy carpet, very few for dinner and annoying music. Very limited menu but in fairness the food was ok, usual chain fare. Breakfast was a little livelier and again no complaints about the standard of the food. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall if you just want a decent room for the night it's ok. Hopefully things will be back to normal soon. Again in respect of the restaurant wait until the refurbishment is over.

Would avoid booking currently, hotel is under construction and restaurant has very limited food / drinks until it is pulled down in may so I would definitelygive this one a miss for a while unless you like the dulcet tones of banging and drilling at 7 am
