2 nights £440 we did expect it to be so much better. On arrival we couldn't get from the car park into the hotel as a traffice cone was in place of the lift meaning we had to walk all the way round and up a single vehicle ramp with 2 suite cases. Then at the desk we tell the receptionist of the problem , her reply was oh really... not sure if she understood english to be honest. Anyway we just want our room as we done a 3 hour drive and was meeting my daughter soon, the receptionist tells me i needed to pay.i told her it was all payed on the 13 may, she looked on the computer and told us again no payment had been made.
At this time im getting annoyed thinking ive be in some kind of scam. Some 10 minutes go by and im still being told i must pay and now my wife is saying i have made some mistake nowing full well i havent .so i go on line internet banking and bring up the payment have been made on the 13th. Receptionist then goes off for 5 minutes returning with a manager who went through another 5 minutes of faff and at last we can have our room and yes it had been payed. Go to our room which was nice and clean but the main table lamp light not working, not the end of the world so told the wife to get in the shower before me as we need to get a move on, "guess what " she said, there is no hot water ! . You cant be serious, but she was. I tell the maid innthe room few doors down and she called in to check and said i was right and that she would repot it. . Decided to give it half hour in hope it would change as we were pushed for time, so on our way out we went to the receptionist but this time the manager was on the desk, told her of the situation and she said with no hesitation we will have to move you . But everthing was unpacked and we were leaving to meet my daughter so would deal with it later on. This did put a damper on things one we met up at the restaurant and to be honest was thinking of moving to a different hotel....
Anyway the next morning our room had hot water as it should have. The breakfast was good although it should have more that one staff doing everything and more than one coffee machine and cueing took way too long meaning food was getting cold and wouldnt think about getting a refill. We would personally never stay againg or recommend anyone do so neither which is a shame as im a big fan of premier inns..

Cozy cheap and great accessibility to the surrounding places. Would go if you’re on a short budget and wants to be in close to the city centre.

Archway Premier Inn (the hotel is located in North London), 110 meters away from the subway station (Archway), the room is not big, and the room rate is equivalent to London, where land is expensive. There are free Wi-Fi connections in public areas and in the rooms, and eating nearby is not a problem. The surrounding areas of the hotel include Dishoom King's Cross (Indian restaurant), Spiritland King's Cross (cocktail bar) and Pizza Union (vegetarian meals)... You can choose.

The room is very clean, the surrounding is quiet and safe, and there is a subway station 100 meters away, which can directly reach the city center of Leicester (China Town). The main desk is on the first floor. It is very convenient to call BER when traveling. The price is reasonable and worth staying for business and tourism.

The location of the hotel is very convenient. The Archway subway station is just outside. There are many restaurants around. The room is large and very clean.
There is no lift in the subway station, which is not very convenient for people like me with heavy luggage.

Top marks all round for this hotel. Stayed over for the football at Wembley. Lovely friendly welcome from the reception staff, had some banter about the football , told us about nearby amenities, Great location with easy access to the tube. The Hotel itself was immaculately clean, spacious comfortable rooms. Great selection of either hot or cold breakfast, beautifully presented and good quality. Would definitely stay here again.

The car park is unwelcoming and had two guys hunched in a corner near the lift up to the hotel. They had their backs to me and suitcases with them. As a lone female I didn't feel particularly safe. The little porch where the lift is is in total darkness until you walk in there and a light comes on - it was very nerve-wracking walking in as you couldn't see what or who may have been lurking in there until that light came on. The porch itself smelt a bit like a toilet. The parking costs £15 per 24hrs - this is far too expensive in my opinion. The room was fine and comfortable, I had paid extra for a super room with a coffee machine and fridge, both of which which worked fine. The armchair in the room however was like sitting on a brick and only fit to sit in for a few minutes. I hgad a small window which gave me a view of Highgate Hill up to St. Joseph's Church at the top. I dined in the restaurant in the evening and the food was very good and freshly cooked. The staff on shift were friendly and efficient. I found a few hairs in the bath but once cleaned away, the bathroom was nice and clean and everything worked well, especially the shower. I slept well in the comfortable bed and woke up feeling refreshed.

I have stayed in this property for the 4th time. I really like the location . Rooms are standard , nothing fancy but comfortable. My special thumbs up to their staff members Noman and Saideh. They have always helped me out during my stays. Will book this property again.

The hotel is convenient for public transport links and only 20/25 minutes by bus from Kings Cross. We chose this location primarily for it's proximity to Kentish Town where our friends live. The hotel is a 20/25 minute walk from the hotel to Highgate Cemetery and Hampstead Heath, both of which are worth visiting. There are buses that go in that direction too, if you don't want to walk. We stayed in room 724 which, although at the very end of the corridor (and furthest from the lift), was very quiet and perfect for us. The room was clean, comfortable, and tidy, and any additional supplies (e.g. milk) was readily available from Reception. Breakfast was very good and regularly topped up with fresh items. Staff were friendly and helpful. There are plenty of shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs and takeaways close by too.

I can honestly say that this was definitely the worst premier inn I have ever stayed at! The entrance was covered in cigarettes butts & unsavoury characters loitering around the hotel! The rooms were very old & worn & needed painting /updating asap! The dining area was absolutely filthy & very under staffed! All I can say is “what a dump” so very disappointed with every aspect of this hotel!

Fantastic Stay at Premier Inn! I had a wonderful experience staying at Premier Inn. From the moment I arrived, the customer service was excellent—the staff at reception were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. It made check-in and my overall stay smooth and enjoyable. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, making for a relaxing stay. I was also impressed with the food quality—delicious and well-prepared, with a good variety of options.
