Premier Inn Manchester (Heaton Park)

Ah, the Premier Inn—where the promise of a restful night collides spectacularly with the reality of a fusty, dilapidated room. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the reception staff, who could have won awards for their impeccable ability to exude disinterest. I’m still not sure if their goal was to check us in or check us out of the hotel entirely! Now, let’s talk about the room. Picture this: a cosy atmosphere steeped in the scent of despair, with the added charm of plaster coming off the bathroom walls like confetti. The fan was a delightful companion, incessantly roaring through the night—perfect for anyone who enjoys the soothing sounds of a jet engine at 3 AM. Windows left wide open? Bravo! Who needs privacy or temperature control when you have that authentic “abandoned warehouse” experience? And don’t get me started on the road noise. It was like having front-row seats to a symphony of revving engines and honking horns, ensuring that sleep was a distant dream, drowned out by the soundtrack of the M1. On to the restaurant! A premier breakfast that’s decidedly not self-service—because why would you want the freedom to serve yourself when you can engage in a delightful game of “How many sausages would you like?” (Spoiler: it’s always one too few.) The milk situation was nothing short of a comedy sketch. “Sorry, our milk dispenser is on a permanent vacation. Please help yourself to the cereal section’s milk—if you can find it!” And orange juice? Let’s just say I haven’t seen it since the dawn of time. Now, let’s discuss the breakfast itself. The baked beans were freezing cold—perfect for anyone looking to experience the thrill of frostbite before their first coffee. The bacon wasn’t much better; it had that delightful lukewarm quality that leaves you questioning whether it was cooked yesterday or simply left out for a while. The rest of the spread? Lukewarm at best. It was like a culinary game of “guess what temperature this is supposed to be,” and spoiler alert: we lost. As for our toast, I asked for butter, and what did I receive? A plate of butter, like some sort of culinary insult. Did someone forget to tell the staff that we’re not living in the Victorian era? Breakfast was served cold, though I can’t help but think it was a charming “take two” of a meal sent back by our neighbours—now that’s what I call hospitality! And then there was the waitress. Speaking in what can only be described as a language composed entirely of mumbles and frowns, she left us utterly baffled. We had no idea where to sit, and just when we thought we might figure it out, she simply walked off, leaving us in a state of confusion that could rival a scene from “The Office.” Smiling was clearly not on her agenda, which made her incoherence even more delightful. To top it all off, our seating in the restaurant had huge tears that had been “repaired” with gaffa tape—because who doesn’t love a bit of DIY charm with their breakfast? It was a lovely reminder that even th

Hotel was noisy motor bikes outside our window at 3 am people talking loudly and we were given a disabled room even thou we were not disabled which was very run down and dated Staff were nice The restaurant beefeater next door was dirty chairs dirty and thorn carpets filthy

Lovely hotel in a great location. Rooms quite warm but fans are provided. Comfy bed and also a lovely shower. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Staff not very friendly in the Beefeater next door and it felt like a lot of new employees hadn't been trained up enough (not the individuals fault, maybe something for the management). Great car park, lots of spaces. Breakfast not bad but nothing spectacular. Lots of TV channels were pixelating, could only really watch the main channels without interference. Free WiFi not good at all, begrudged paying for the ultimate WiFi after a previous bad experience. A little bit gutting as it's not the best location for mobile data/signal.

The hotel was fine no issues at all but the beefeater next door where we had food was pretty rubbish & Expensive! As we are a family of 4 staying for 4 days it was a dear do to be eating there every night! We didn't get the meal package as we were staying to attend a wedding and see family so wouldn't be eating there every meal time anyway but also they only offer just breakfast package or both breakfast and evening meal.

Hotel was convenient for us. Its ok if you get a room in the new part, but if you are in the front part you will see it is dated. Floors are woden and yoy can hear people above you moving about.we were at ghe front and couldn't have the window open due to road noise at night.

The team provided excellent service its right on a perfect spot next to the heaton park grocery stores so everything you need i really enjoyed staying there the room i stayed was nice and clean i want to recomend this place to go to for a great experience

The room was very clean and comfortable, I loved the extra pillows. All staff were really welcoming and helpful. I didn't use the restaurant so can't comment on that but my night's stay was extremely relaxing after a very stressful day and journey

Fairly modern Premier Inn but demand outstrips supply at breakfast time. Also, faint smell of vomit from bedding in my room making first night unpleasant.

Accommodation was fine, room clean and comfortable bed Restaurant was shocking, chairs and table stained a dirty, couldn’t get basic fish and chips right. Sent back soggy and full of fat. So bad we did without breakfast the next day. We’ve travelled all over and never experienced worse. No excuse for lack of cleanliness. Unfortunately there were no restaurants in the area.
