Taunton Central (North)

This hotel does not have air conditioning. On a sunny day the first floor and rooms becomes unbearably hot. With two air fans blowing, sleep still was uncomfortable and not as guarenteed. We were forced to cut a visit short, to escape the unrelenting stifling heat.

Great stay. Went for a wedding. Fab welcome from staff. The social restaurant space was great. We had pre and post wedding drinks. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff are amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be staying again. Close to town

The hotel itself is good. The staff are absolutely lovely & so accommodating & friendly. Unfortunately the restaurant really lets it down. Premier Inn have closed the pub that was attached to it which we were told, was loved by local people. They now have a tiny - no bigger than 2 of their bedrooms, restaurant. The choice is very, very limited. I had nachos to start. They weren’t even loaded nachos just literally a packet of plain tortilla chips chucked on a plate with a very synthetic tasting salsa as a dip. Then, being vegetarian, I had a choice of macaroni cheese or tomato & chilli linguine. I opted for the mac cheese. Well it was like a tin of the Heinz macaroni cheese I used to eat years ago. My husband had the fish & chips which was all frozen & oven baked & honestly not even as nice as the frozen M&S fillets you can buy. This is appalling Premier Inn. Not the fault of the staff at all - they can only work with the equipment they are given.

Checking in was very good and the room is what expected for a premier inn. However the food menu is very limited for the meal deal. Soft drinks comprise of Coke, Diet Coke or Coke Zero plus J20. As I don’t drink any of them had to pay extra for a drink. The menu had very little choice and again had to have something that I was not happy with. Kids meals are very limited as there was only three things on the menu. There is no wine on the meal deal so again all you can choose is beer or soft drinks. I will have to think about next time I am in the area

This is a small Premier Inn set on 2 floors (be aware there is no lift). The room was very clean and the staff very helpful. Breakfast was really good. Because it’s very small the evening options in the restaurant had a limited choice. It’s a 15 minute walk to the station and about 35 minutes from the hotel into the town centre (really nice town).

wifi signal awful, none on second night when staying for business need that facility. room not serviced , and no clean cups, there are no drinking glasses, requested and was given a mug. sink had large crack in it which was dirty so had been there for some time,
