You need to know train times and allow about an hour to get to Euston if you are using this Premier Inn for a London trip. However, the overall tone and manner of the staff behaviour was excellent. Much more open, friendly, positive and helpful than in many very much more expensive places we have stayed.
Rooms are warm (it was -5C outside), clean and comfortable. Sound levels were fine.
We have stayed here before and will undoubtedly do so again.
If booked on a discount offer this hotel can be exceptional value but it is also good value at full price. The breakfast value (£7.99 full English) and quality is good, my only criticism is that the breakfast coffee was too weak for my taste (but I do like very strong coffee!)
This hotel is about 5 minutes walk from the edge of the town centre and only about 7 minutes from Watford High Street Station (trains); Watford High Street station is on the slow line to London Euston and it takes nearly 3/4 hour. Depending on time it can be faster to go the wrong way to Watford Junction Station from where much faster trains go to Euston (it would take 20-25 minutes to walk to Watford Junction. If you are going to stay here a couple of days and go to London a number of times do think about an Oyster Card (www.tfl.gov.uk/oyster) for your fares.
