If your boyfriend promised you a nice night away and took you to a premier inn.....

[neettfeet]

Would you be disappointed?

I've frequently stayed in hotels costing £300-£400 a night and wished I was at a premier inn. At least they are clean, the linen is decent quality and the mattresses are comfortable.

I'd dump him if ot was a Travelodge though.

No, I love a premier inn! Took the kids to one for a sleep over and breakfast!! Ooh may so that for half term!!

One of my dcs favourite memories is the morning my mum dropped them off to me at the local premier Inn after my nightshift (in a hospital not PI). We had breakfast. Then I went home to bed and they went to their dads house. It was fab!

I'm going to be echoing other posters here but bear with.

If it's a night no kids but same city, I'd be a bit because the same thing could be achieved with less ££ by staying home. If it was a night at a show or a gig or a picnic etc in a different town, I'd be happy.

Context please!

The one on London Southbank? The one in some awful dodgy random burb?

Come on @neettfeet , give us some context.

You've had 3 pages of replies, saying much depends on so many factors......

I quite like Premier Inns and Travel Lodges but if he promised you a good night away, there must be more to it than just where you stay.

Do tell.

No. Though I presume you haven’t got to stay IN the inn all evening?

No/ be greatful

Context is everything, but there's nothing wrong with a premier inn!

No, I literally love any little thing i do with OH

OP we need more info, was it straight to the Premier Inn or did you go some place nice before that?

Depends where it was. If it was the premier inn down the road, id be disappointed as not very imaginative, but if it was somewhere nice then id be pleased.
I am not particularly fussy about hotels as long as the bed is comfy

I'd be really disappointed. If it was anything like the one at the weekend, I'd refuse to stay.

@Theunamedcat

Don't they have the expensive mattresses? Mine is shite so I might be happy about it

No, their mattresses are basically the cheapest offering from a popular brand name.

I'd be pissed off. Stayed in one for work yonks ago as it was the only thing local and it was shoddy.

We need more context...

How much money does he have? What was the purpose of this night away?

E.g If he's on a low wage and has taken you to see/do something nice then I wouldn't need an expensive hotel on top of that.

Probably be cleaner than some more expensive hotels

@Hawkmoth

It would depend what I got for tea and where we went before bedtime.

Premier Inn don't do tea, do they? There are tea bags and kettle in the rooms.

You could have tea anywhere but I think the op is expecting more than that, maybe a lovely dinner, a show or both, then sleeping in the Premier In..

'Inn' not 'in'.

I'd dump him if ot was a Travelodge though.

I spent my honeymoon in a Travelodge! We hadn't planned anything (long story) so hit the road, couldn't find a B&B so ended up in a Travelodge. Spent the days visiting local places and the nights there. It wasn't a bad experience But we are divorced now. Not saying that's connected.

No. Because I’m not a gold digger and generally can take myself to wherever I fancy. A Premier Inn is usually a nice room and really, I’ve done far more interesting things, so staying in fancy hotels isn’t really something that impresses me.

As a PP says, after a while, a hotel room is a hotel room is a hotel room. Somewhere clean and quiet to sleep. There are more interesting ways to impress me, frankly.

No?! It's the thought that counts. I'd love the fact the man I loved wanted to take me away.

Depends where it is. Somewhere like centre of London, York or Bath would be fine. If its just by the services along the A38 then I'd be miffed.

No. I like Premier Inns.

Any change of scene would be good with me.
