Elgin hotel

Mollie and all the staff were so polite and approachable at all times. Would definitely recommendat this Prmier Inn. 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Although I enjoyed my stay, it was severely has lost points because of the restaurant not being open next-door. This hotel is out of the way, so you need to drive to get food or get a takeaway delivery. I don't find that enjoyable in a bedroom. I wanted to see humans and enjoy seeing other people. I could've stayed in my own home instead. So, Elgin Premier Inn sort out the issue about the restaurant please! Thanks.

An expensive last minute booking. However, had the best nights sleep for a while. Free parking a bonus. Breakfast standard Prem Inn, but really nice local staff.

The staff is friendly, and the facilities are clean. We stayed in an accessible room with a wet room, and it was very comfortable and spacious (With the Premier Inn app, it is easy to book this type of room). Although there is no air conditioning, the room stays very cool. The hotel is a two-minute walk from McDonald's, KFC, and other places. It is also a two-minute drive from a petrol station. There is a restaurant next to the hotel; the food is decent enough, but the very friendly and attentive staff really make the difference. We will return to this hotel.

I’ve used this hotel a few times now over the years, usually as a stop off on castle-bagging trips in Moray. Conveniently located just off the A96, with a number of fast-food restaurants, supermarkets and garages within either walking distance or a short drive. Rates are usually reasonable, particularly when compared to staying in Inverness. The car park is large and since the closure of the Brewer’s Fayre restaurant, I’ve never had an issue with parking (remember to record your number plate on the tablet when you book in). On this occasion I chose to book a Premier Plus room, which I think was around £8 more, and it was definitely worth the extra cost, as it includes wifi (normally £5 – you get 30 minutes free in a standard room), a fridge containing 2 bottles of complimentary water and two bars of chocolate that worked really well to chill drinks quickly, a Nespresso coffee machine (I normally don’t bother with coffee in hotels as it is usually instant), a large walk-in shower, an adjustable swivel chair for the desk (this was a leisure trip rather than work, but this still made a significant difference when writing some notes up or typing a few emails) and a high-backed chair that is ideal for reading. There was the usual comfortable bed, large television with loads of channels and plenty of sockets to charge devices, including bedside sockets with USB. There was no air conditioning in the room, however there was an Igenix fan, which did an excellent job of keeping the room comfortable. My room was facing the A96 but there was no issue with noise. Staying at this hotel the biggest noise issue comes from the seagulls in the car park, but the windows usually cut this out and it dies off after dark. I didn’t eat breakfast in the hotel. I might have considered dinner, however there was no menu online or in the room to see what was available. Meals are served in the Linkwood Lodge beside the hotel, which was previously a Brewer’s Fayre but no longer open to non-residents. The local papers were running a story during my stay that the Linkwood Lodge is to be demolished to allow a further extension to the hotel.
