Haustierfreundliche Hotels in Lincoln District

Das Einchecken am Automat war sehr umständlich, obwohl ein Premier Inn Konto seit Jahren besteht...,.es wurden viele Angaben wiederholt abgefragt. Die Codierung der Zimmerkarten musste mehrere Male vorgenommen werden, da es sich anscheinend um einen wiederkehrenden Programmfehler handelt. Personal allerdings sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Kostenpflichtiger Parkplatz, sowie Parkhaus direkt neben dem Hotel....für 24 Stunden lediglich 6£....sehr günstig in GB. Hotel mit Lift und Restaurant im Haus bestückt. Das Zimmer lag im 4. Stock mit Blick auf die Kathedrale....wirklich toll. Großes, sauberes Zimmer, super Bett....sehr guter Premier Inn Standard.

Unusual accommodation where it is easy to self-cater. This happened to suit us perfectly. My husband was undergoing daily radiotherapy and chemotherapy for five weeks. When we were still staying in our own home, this meant an 85 mile round trip each day. So we decided for the last two weeks to stay in Lincoln for four nights both weeks. First room we had was room 5 - spacious double en-suite on the first floor. Faced the main road, so quite a bit of traffic noise. Second week, we were in room 2, having requested a ground floor room. Again, spacious double with en-suite. Again, faced main road but we were more aware of traffic noise, as there was no double glazing in this room. Earplugs were provided! The fridges in the rooms were very useful, amply stocked for breakfasts, but still enough room for microwave meals. During our stay, the heating in our room failed, but this was speedily remedied. It is easy to contact management for help, on the number provided. Free Wi-Fi, and cable tv. Spotlessly clean, modern kitchen, with three ovens and hobs, plus two microwaves. Basic crockery and cutlery provided, but no cooking equipment. Take your own microwave dishes if you want to use your breakfast baked beans? Bathroom heated towel rails can get very hot, and are right next to the toilets, so worth being careful to avoid burns! But towels dried quickly. Very good value for money. Not luxury, but not luxury prices!

We'd booked a table at the restaurant with friends and decided we'd stay over. Booked well in advance. Now the room was nothing to sniff at. It was neat and tidy and the bed was comfortable. The fan however was about as much use as an asthmatic ant blowing through a straw, this didn't help on one of the hottest days of the year. That's where the good ends. When we checked in we were behind a couple who were a little older than ourselves and had a stellar service from the reception man. He asked if there was anything he could do, he asked if he could book them a table at the restaurant, and he asked if they needed a taxi anywhere, he was genuinely awesome and courteous. Our turn to check in arrives. We're a professional couple in our early 40's and our friends behind us are the same. As soon as we got to the desk the smiles faded and the friendly demeanour disappeared. He kept on informing us that he needed the card details of the card we booked with in case we 'trashed' the room. He mentioned this over and over again must have been close to 10 times and he kept saying that it was because he's had trouble with groups before and he wanted to be able to charge us for any damage! He also said it's because the price of the room (that we had pre-booked) may go up overnight, we'd never heard of this before and protested this quirk but he wasn't in the mood to chat about it. He never told us about the hotel. Never asked if we wanted a table at the restaurant. Never even asked if we were OK. Horrendous service. Come the morning, Leanne was on duty. She was a breath of fresh air. She was mortified at our treatment and promptly gave us all the information we needed to complain, she was kind, courteous and frankly everything that the chap the night before wasn't. Just because a group walks in, it does not mean we are trouble. We were pre-judged and made to feel lower than second class which for a group of medical professional friends enjoying a reunion was frankly appalling. ** UPDATE ** We highlighted all of our issues to the member of Leanne in the morning who said when we were able, to make a written complaint but that she would deal with it personally. Email sent to Damons head office for the complaint. The reply from Stuart Carey who is apparently a Director of the company is frankly appalling, dismissive and rude. He mentions that a complaint should be sent promptly and that complaints that aren't, are not taken seriously. We emailed 4 working days after our stay as we were on holiday and believed it was being handled by the lady we spoke to. His email goes as far to say that myself and my group are nothing short of liars and that because it was not dealt with at the time they aren't too bothered about it. Steer well clear of this place.
