We
stayed
here
recently
for
two
nights,
as
part
of
a
sightseeing
trip
to
London.
The
hotel
is
ideally
situated,
accessible
just
off
the
A1,
and
within
walking
distance
of
a
range
of
restaurants
and
fast
food
places,
and
the
main
train
line
into
London.
When
we
arrived
on
the
Saturday
we
were
around
3
hours
too
early
for
check
in,
so
my
husband
spoke
to
the
receptionist
to
see
if
we
would
be
able
to
leave
our
car
whilst
we
went
into
London
for
the
afternoon.
We
were
surprised
to
find
that
not
only
was
our
room
ready,
but
we
could
check
in,
meaning
our
bags
could
be
safely
stowed
before
leaving.
The
room
was
what
we
have
come
to
expect
from
Premier
Inn
-
clean
and
with
plentiful
amenities.
Coffee
and
tea
making
facilities
were
well
stocked,
as
were
the
dispensers
in
the
bathroom.
Despite
being
so
close
to
the
A1,
no
traffic
noise
could
be
heard
in
the
room
unless
the
window
was
open.
The
room
had
air
conditioning,
which
was
efficient,
if
not
a
little
noisy.
We
opted
to
eat
out
in
the
evenings,
but
enjoyed
a
full
breakfast
for
the
two
mornings
we
were
there.
Hot
plates
were
cooked
to
order
and
we
were
able
to
specify
the
items
and
the
amount
we
wanted
-
the
only
disappointment
was
that
there
was
no
black
pudding
due
to
supply
issues!
The
continental
option
was
plentiful,
with
six
different
cereals,
yogurts,
pastries,
fresh
fruit,
and
bakery
items
for
toasting.
There
were
three
juice
options,
as
well
as
iced
water,
and
coffee
and
tea
making
facilities.
The
hotel
is
just
20
minutes
away
from
London
Kings
Cross
via
train,
and
these
were
regular
(some
took
longer
depending
on
the
number
of
stops
between
Stevenage
and
London,
but
the
maximum
travel
time
was
around
40
minutes).
It’s
the
perfect
hotel
if
you’re
wanting
a
weekend
break
in
the
capital
but
don’t
want
to
pay
over
the
odds
for
a
room.
