The accommodation at the Premier Inn South Shields Port of Tyne seems to be of a good standard. Guests describe the rooms as well kept and as reasonably spacious. Most reviews indicate that the beds are comfortable and although there’s no air-conditioning, very few guests mention uncomfortable temperatures.
Staff at this hotel seem to go out of their way to please guests. At least, that’s what reviews indicate. Guests found the check-in procedure to be fairly simple and regularly praise staff for their friendly and attentive nature.
Of those guests that mention value for money, most felt that this hotel is a good choice if you’re keeping an eye on your budget. The room rates compare favourably to city centre hotels. Furthermore, free Wi-Fi, on-site parking and meal deals add additional value.
Although the free Wi-Fi certainly adds value to your stay, some guests found the service a little frustrating, describing it as slow and needing to be almost constantly rebooted. It’s probably fine for a quick check of your emails or social accounts but if you want to get some work done, you may be better upgrading to the premium service.
A number of guests comment that the walls in this hotel are so thin that you can hear other guests moving around their rooms and talking. It’s worth asking for a quiet room away from other guests, but if the hotel is fully booked, this may not be possible.
Although many guests enjoyed their dining experience at the Taybarns restaurant, some found it too crowded for their liking. Also, there often seems to be a lot of children running around.
