Premier Inns are a staple in any city. And, in the city centre of Manchester, you can rest your weary head and enjoy a fry-up at no less than seven of the hospitality chain's hotels.
But are all Premier Inns built the same? Are runny eggs a guarantee and at which hotels do you get the best - or the worst - service?
In Greater Manchester, there are 32 Premier Inns and, according to TripAdvisor, all, except one, are rated between very good and excellent.

Advertised on TripAdvisor as a restaurant, the Premier Inn Altrincham still comes out well rated receiving an overall review of 3.5 stars. However, out of the 24 reviews on this hotel, five of them are ‘terrible’.
Mitchian, reviewing in 2020, was not pleased with the meal they received at the Premier Inn and said: “The food is not good and the service is bad. The fish was tasteless and the chips under cooked. Expensive. Bad beer.”
However, the same hotel has a second listing on TripAdvisor where it has received a four star rating - and has been reviewed more than 600 times, with 10 per cent of reviews coming in as poor or terrible. Only two weeks ago, FearlessTraveller2019 wrote: “The staff at this hotel were really polite and attentive. The bed was very comfy and the shower pressure and temperature was great. Parking was easy and plenty of space.
"However, compared to most other premier inns, the rooms did feel quite dated. The tv was small and uncooperative.”
At this Premier Inn, the cheapest room costs £34 a night.
