    But it is so simple, a barrier gate to get a ticket and if a customer, you get a token to get out. They simply allocate a number of spaces for the rooms.
    Perhaps you don't frquent hotels when all the vans and wagons tip up.
    Premier Inn are not going to lose that amount of business just for letting the odd chancer share the car park.

    Ah right the Premier Inns I have stayed in the past did not have that problem, so thanks for the tip but they are still a no go area for me.
    Suppose like everything it depends what part of the country
    I know that happens in Travelodge's but I thought Premier Inn was trying to get away from that image

    What image?

    Perhaps they're thankful they don't have to tolerate your sniffy attitude to others.

    NO, you will not be bumping into me, no reason. So, as you say, get this thread back on track but, it is now dead anyway, The op who started this has had everything answered.

    I have to agree that it is one thing to avoid unfair charges for overstaying etc. whilst using facilities but quite another to expect to use a business parking facilities to park all day while you are at work.


    Most people do not have this luxury afforded to them.

    Of course, at the end of the day the hotel will make a decision be it right or wrong for their own business needs

    Premier inn are now asking their residents to pay for parking. They take your vehicle reg number when you check in so they know who has paid and the cars that do not belong to their customers. This is being rolled out uk.
    You work for them? They've been got at by a scumbag PPC then, don't tell us, ParkingEye? That'll drive away the Premier Inn clients sharpish, no repeat business then once people get a threatening PCN and maybe a court claim. Be careful what you wish for, dumb Hotels & retailers.

    To the OP - I wouldn't be parking there any more.
    PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).
