Here’s the thing about Premier Inn staff: they’re ridiculously nice. The folks at the Duke Street desk act like you’re the most important guest in the whole building. Need an extra towel? They’ll hand it over like it’s a royal scepter. Got a question about where to find a good pub? They’ll give you directions so detailed, you’ll feel like you’re being guided by a friendly treasure map. It’s refreshing in a world where “customer service” sometimes means a robot shouting, “Your call is important to us.”
