To think Premier Inn Rooms are too Hot?

[crunchymint]

I really like Premier Inn but have stopped booking rooms there as there rooms are always so hot. They have no opening windows and the lowest temperature the temperature control goes to in the room, is too hot to sleep in. Anyone else find this?

Hotels are always too hot, I usually end up spreadeagled on the bed with nothing on.
No shagging. Just uncomfortable.

I once tried dismantling the mechanism that stops you opening the window more than an inch in a very hot PI stuffy room last summer.
I assume it's for health and safety reasons that they won't allow you to open windows - I'm a grown woman ffs - there's more danger of me going utterly demented in your overly hot stuffy room than there is of falling out of the bedroom window. Grrr... can't stand bedrooms with windows that won't open and can't bear the heating on at night. Makes me v v cross and grumpy.

You're as bad as Alan Partridge dismantling trouser press!

Yes, the window safety catch I'll be for the children, think of the children.

Well, and the drunk adults.

I find most hotel rooms too hot, to be honest. I've had refunds twice from PI for insanely hot rooms though. Part of the problem is that you seem to get winter-weight duvets on the beds all year round, which are just unnecessary.

At home our room is about 16-17 degrees, with the window on vent in winter and open in summer. We use a 4.5 tog down duvet all year round too. I used to get cold in bed, then had children, and my overnight body temperature has been higher since, it would seem!

I love them! Can't stand being cold.

And everywhere I have stayed in the US has had aircon, so no problem there.

Yes to aircon in the US, but the place we stayed last summer it was pre-set to 72F and couldn't be adjusted. Warning notices saying things like if you tampered with it it would freeze the units or something and you'd get a $1000 fine.

They probably get a lot of overheated Brits staying and complaning about it.

Presumably that will be commented on in the trip advisor reviews so people like me can avoid it.
