Premier Inn Newcastle City Centre (Quayside)

We chose to stay as it was very good value for a room and a meal deal offer. Previous Premier Inn experiences have been good but this location is very tired and needs a complete renovation. We had two rooms on the first floor that were both very cold. Despite following the provided instructions the rooms were too slow to warm as the electric radiators were ineffective. The rooms were also very dimly lit and sparsely furnished making them uninviting. Both rooms were also in poor state of decoration with grubby walls and carpets with marks and stains. The bathrooms were clearly very old. The biggest issue is the lack of effective sound proofing with the windows and it is a noisy area at nighttime. Not pleasant and will definitely not be going back.

Have spend Friday night at this premier inn, It was a great hotel ( does need a bit work doing, but to be expected as it's an old hotel with lots of original features ) In a great location, close to everything you need, with a great view, the staff were very friendly and curtious, nothing was to much trouble. We had breakfast In the money which was great value for money, would definitely stay there again, we have a great night away

Quayside was the choice as it was the closest Premier Inn to the station but also boasted the riverside location and was housed in what appeared to be a lovely old building. It's not often I go for former Premier Lodge hotels. The hotel was easy to find and we were given a massive room with a view looking onto the Tyne and bridge which I had requested by Email. The hotel had Emailed me to say there was building works going on and the building would be covered in scaffolding however there was nothing of the kind here! The building has a beautiful staircase with tiles and stained glass windows, just a pity the cornicing is hidden by fake ceilings and i imagine the interiors were once lined with wooden panelling. Noise was an issue and that wasn't just from the heater in the room which would start shaking and squeaking ever few minutes which wasn't great for sleeping next to. Also on Saturday morning somebody kindly set off fireworks right outside the hotel! Staff were very friendly and quite plentiful I will chose this hotel again next time I visit Newcastle.
