Looking for some reasonable accommodation just off the M6 to break my journey up, I came across this Premier Inn, which was very reasonably priced. It's based on a small out of town development with some chain restaurants nearby. I missed the entrance as the website doesn't make it clear it's on this development but a quick spin round the next roundabout and I was soon there. The building seemed very new on arrival and the staff confirmed that it's a new hotel. The room was lovely with large comfy bed, nice LCD telly and a futuristic bathroom The restaurant area was busy the next morning for breakfast but the staff worked quickly. The nice hot English breakfast was served buffet style. This place is a bargain at these prices and I'll be considering this place as a base the next time I go to Alton Towers.

The room we stayed in was clean and tidy and the staff were all excellent, couldn't have asked for more.

After a long train and car ride I found myself in a lovely village known as Eccleshall. The main part of the village is simply a intersection lined with small shops and homes. While I was standing there a absolutely beautiful 20's era Bentley drove by. Won't you know it was even green, my favorite color. While window shopping I came across a grand millennium clock. It had 4 faces with one pointed in each direction. It was slender and blue which made it stand out very well from the red brick buildings which lined the streets. I came to a window of what seemed to be a pet shop. In that window there was a big sign which read. 3 Chocolate Bitches, 3 Black Bitches, and 3 Black Dogs. Being American I chuckled a bit and moved on. I strolled across the street to the inn where I was staying. The George Inn is straight out of the past and very reminiscent of the Inn featured in the movie Three Weddings and a Funeral. It is a large white building with green trim. Window boxes filled with flowers hang just below the window ledges. A large sign indicated the restaurant side of this establishment. Lets go in shall we? When you step into The George you find a small reception desk where you check in and out. The staff are very friendly and extremely helpful with whatever needs you may have. Don't be afraid to ask, they don't mind where you come from, even America. Just through a doorway you will find the restaurant. I only had breakfast here but it is definitely worth a go. The full breakfast was very nice indeed. Two eggs over medium, toast, bacon, puddings, and coffee. The most civilized breakfast a mere man could ever wish for. Across from the restaurant you will find the pub. This room is from another time and if you haven't been in an old pub you will just have to see it to believe it. Tables are available for groups but I preferred sitting at the bar with my mates. Here the owner and brewer will present you with something very special. Slaters is his own label of brew and here it's whatever your pleasure since the available range is extensive. From Lager to Stout, Slater's has it all and the quality is fantastic. bring your mates and your thirst, it will be a top night guaranteed. The rooms are what are to be expected in a country inn. Nothing fancy but the comforts of home. It is very nice that my room had a window because I like some circulation while I sleep. The bed is comfortable but don't expect pillow top comfort. Their is a private bath in the room, did the shared bath thing once and it was unpleasant to say the least. There is a wardrobe for your clothes if you don't like living out of your suitcase. I have done so much traveling so I rarely unpack unless I am going to be staying in one place for a while. So if you read my review and find yourself in Eccleshall stop into The George and stay for a pint, or two, or three, or aww just forget it and check in and make a night of it then.

Clean, spacious en-suite rooms with a massive comfy bed for £50 a night or less, dotted all over the country in convenient locations. Sure, you can't tell one from another once you're inside and I wouldn't stay in one for a proper holiday as I like a bit more homestyle charm, but if you're breaking up a long journey or need an overnight stay somewhere (the one at Watford North is great if you're going to the Harry Potter studio tour) then I'd always look at Premier Inn before any of the other budget style travel inns. Staff are always polite and pleasant, rooms are clean and comfy, there's a place to eat right next door if you need food. Job done.

It's a sizeable hotel (with nearly 150 rooms) with all the ancillary facilities you'd expect: restaurant, gym, spa, conference rooms. A little dated on the exterior, but the interior was relatively modernised and it's a bit of a maze with the 'ground floor' facilities being located on multiple levels up and down staircases and lifts. Owned by the hotel chain Best Western, it's much more expensive than the average Premier Inn - a double room with breakfast included was £72, yet I didn't feel as though I was getting more quality. That being said, the parking was free and ample, staff were friendly, rooms were spotless, beds were comfortable and the breakfast options expansive and tasty. It was convenient for where we needed to be that evening but I'd prefer to stay somewhere equally as nice, but better value for money.

You had to book the dinner in advance so no spontaneous decisions about that. Limited selections on the menu and the service was slow. The food was descent. I left my glasses on the table at dinner an the waitress ran them up to my room for me, which was a nice surprise. The front desk staff was also top notch and fetched me a European to UK power adapter as I had managed to forget mine. The gal even remembered my name when i returned it the next day. The bed was comfortable and I slept well. Breakfast was a buffet and somewhat average. Not good - not bad. Adequate for our needs. All in all, a good stay with adequate and clean facilities.

The Tollgate is a brilliant hotel, my favourite in Stoke. It's fairly pricey but worth it. Once you…read moredrive past the gates, the hotel is actually a sort of Butlin-esque set of chalets. I like this setup. The rooms are all en-suite, clean, and pretty. The televisions are large and the Sky TV is always nice to have in a hotel. I was disappointed with the WiFi. At the time I stayed there, there was free WiFi in the main hotel complex (the reception/bar) but not in the rooms. This may have been rectified since. All in all though, I would easily recommend the Tollgate if you're staying in Stoke. The staff seem a bit put-upon and there seem to be discrepancies between the hotel's bookings and the online sites that book hotels, so that may cause a headache if you've booked something different from what the guy on the desk has you down for.

The breakfast room had a lovely view of the turn in the canal. You can easily walk into Nottingham centre along the canal too, where you can get to the cool bars that are on the canal. If you go along canal the opposite way you will meet the Trent river and have a smashing view of Notts Forests City grounds. It's a nice walk too, during which we saw a family of Canada Geese. I guess it'd be a pretty handy hotel for the of Notts Forests games, as well as any of the cricket games at Trent Bridge.

For pretty much the same price I got a lovely suite ( see pictures) with complimentary tea, water and my own coffee maker - perfect for that post dinner latte! Staff seem lovely and I was given lots of information on arrival. Next up was dinner. Popped down to the restaurant and was greeted with a great menu with lots of fab dishes on it. Opted for the Cajun squid with guacamole dip for starters and the pan fried swordfish with crushed potatoes, garlic green beans and salsa verde for main. Squid was perfectly cooked with a light Cajun batter and lovely guacamole dip. Cajun spices could have easily overpowered the delicate squid but this wasn't the case- perfect! Next up the sword fish beautifully presented and perfectly cooked not dry at all which can often happen with swordfish. Very tasty salsa verde which complimented the fish perfectly. A couple of glasses of Sauvignon blanc to go with the meal and boom work trip turns out to be quite pleasant! If you are in the Crewe area be sure to check this place out and if you get the opportunity to pass up a chain hotel for a local place do it!!
