Premier Inn Clacton-On-Sea (Seafront)

This hotel absolutely falls short of what you should expect from a Premier Inn. Whilst you expect basic, the package is usually delivered to a reasonable standard, this hotel didn’t meet the mark. Location-wise the hotel was great for where I was working. Parking was sufficient. Outside of the above, unfortunately the perks end there. There is little-to-no phone signal in the hotel. I couldn’t make any texts/calls in the room and signal was non-existent in the reception and restaurant. The free WiFi was poor and did not allow me to be able to complete any work on my laptop. The restaurant has an EXTREMELY limited menu. Unless you have dinner included, I highly recommend you dine elsewhere due to the lack of choice. The rooms require an overhaul. Hygiene was not the best and as you will see in other reviews the interior is beginning to show its age.

Staff were so friendly. I experienced so many travel delays that I ended up getting to the hotel after midnight, but the staff made it so much less stressful and made sure there was a warm welcome and easy check in! The hospitality is brilliant.

I stayed here for two nights. When I woke up on the second morning I was covered in insect type bites. I then went down to breakfast to discover there was no chef. I have reported the bed bug issue and Premier Inn are currently investigating. Based on my experience it is difficult to recommend this place - I could also mention the lack of parking and room temperature too hot and could not be adjusted

Right having paid £200 for 1 nite this premier inn, clacton on sea,sea front hears my proof off bedbugs.plus breakfast was pretty dry n not nice,I've sent emails of complaints and had not 1 single reply I want my money back?horrible hotel no go

The room was booked last minute Which is not good! How ever I was given the room above the car park rear doors, next to the stairs and lift! I did ask for a room change because of the noise that was likely to keep me awake all night The staff said they were fully booked! I was woken pretty much all night! Doors slammed, party guessed talking outside etc etc Do not have room 101 it’s not pleasant, the room was clean but tatty, pictures ripped off the wall and looking shabby

Not a very Premier PLUS stay, disappointed overall.... Four visits to reception to get a Key Card to work. WiFi Not intuitive at all - & No instructions supplied ＞ another visit to reception! WiFi very slow even though "Ultimate WiFi" ( Free wifi was same speed ) Problems with heating to room ＞ requiring yet ANOTHER visit to reception. Room overall, clean ..... but carpet not really clean. No hand holds in bath / shower .... at ALL ????? Meal & breakfast OK..... but no-one, not even your own staff can understand how partial bookings work!
