I recently completed my second stay at this wonderful hotel, and I am compelled to share my exceptional experience, primarily due to one standout team member: Ram at the reception.From the moment I arrived, Ram welcomed me with a genuine warmth and friendliness that immediately made me feel at home. His professionalism, attention to detail, and eagerness to assist with any request, big or small, were truly impressive.During both of my stays, Ram went above and beyond his duties to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. He possesses an incredible ability to anticipate guests' needs and provide personalized service that makes each visitor feel valued and well-cared for. His local knowledge and recommendations for attractions and dining options greatly enriched my stay.The hotel itself is lovely, with comfortable rooms and excellent amenities, but it is Ram's exceptional hospitality that sets this place apart and keeps guests like me returning. He is not just a receptionist; he is the heart of the hotel, creating a welcoming atmosphere that resonates throughout the entire establishment.I genuinely believe that Ram deserves recognition for his outstanding service. He is an asset to the hotel, and I sincerely hope that his dedication and hard work are acknowledged and rewarded. A promotion would be more than fitting for someone who consistently delivers such a high standard of customer care.I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay, and I look forward to returning again soon, knowing that Ram will be there to welcome me back with his signature warmth and professionalism.Thank you, Ram, for making my stays truly exceptional!

Staff need some training in professionalism.When we arrived receptionist was on some kind of complaint on a mobile given to her by another member of staff, didn’t acknowledge us for some time.It wouldn’t have taken much to ask the caller to hold and say to us “sorry I’ll be with you in a moment”Then a man asked if there was any air conditioning as it was so warm and was told by a male staff member “no if you wanted air con you should have gone to tooting” then laughed at him asking about air con to his colleague.The following day the staff were in the back room loudly arguing and shouting about some man texting them nonstop and then they came into the reception area and one stated they would smash the others face in with the phone. Whilst I was sat in reception waiting for a cab.I’ve worked front of house and would never dream of acting like this when guests were present. They really didn’t seem to care at all, everything seemed like a joke to them.The rooms were very warm and unpleasant but at least had a big fan.I’ve stayed here before and not had any issues but this time the staff really let the place down.

Sure, here's a polished version of your review:---I came to Premier Inn for breakfast and it was a wonderful experience. The food was excellent, and the team members were great. We felt welcomed right away. A man named Ram was super friendly and helpful. Additionally, the kitchen staff member named Heena asked us if we wanted eggs or anything else, offering to make it fresh. The facilities were clean and well-maintained.

VENTILATION PROBLEMS in August 2024 : Poor ventilation in the hotel (windows can only be slightly opened) so room temperature was 25°C. Could not sleep at all because of intense heat. COLOUR SCHEME : Curtains, floor, furniture, wall pictures : all dark brown. Very depressing. I never want to stay in a place like that again. SUGGESTION: Re-decoration and allow windows to be opened normally. BATHROOM: very good. CLEANING STAFF : friendly
