I’ve been a Premier Inn fan for a very long
time. We stay in their hotels at least four or five times a year, Sometimes
many more. I really like the fact that I know exactly what I’m getting with a Premier
Inn and they can sleep four to a room, which is good. Of course as a mum of
three it would be perfect if they slept five of us in one room, but alas we’re
still to find an affordable hotel that can do that. If all five of us are
travelling together, I’ll book for two rooms and I find that as long as I’m
booking around 3-6 months in advance I can get a great price - anywhere between
about £24.50 - £39.50 per room.
Of course I haven’t actually found the London County Hall Premier Inn that cheap, as it is situated right on the South Bank
by the London Eye, Shreks Adventure and the Sealife Aquarium. It’s also just a
few minutes walk from Waterloo and Charing Cross mainline stations and
Embankment and Westminster tube stops. I stayed at this hotel for two Friday
nights in March, I paid £59 for one of the nights and £69 for the other.
It was only two of us staying on both occasions, but the price
would have been the same if it was four, and the bedrooms I had were a really generous
size with two king size beds. So as twins, they feel really luxurious, as space
is normally limited in London hotels, unless you are staying in a decent five
star, I’ve found in the past. It appears that most of the bedrooms have a view
onto the rear street, rather than onto the Thames, but the last time I stayed I
had a side view, it was very nice to be able to glimpse the London Eye right from my bedroom.
