Premier Inn Barnsley (Dearne Valley) hotel in Barnsley

We arrived last Saturday for a night to be welcomed to the room by mould all over the walls and expected a child to sleep next to it then moved us to another room was ok still mould in places spoke to guest relations team can’t issue a refund because we had moved room I mean how can you not offer anything place needs a full refurbishment

Staff was good but that's about it. Room was not clean and had damp mold patches on the wall. No restaurant onsite which was a real let down. Would not stay here again.

Very disappointed. Had booked our stay with our two children in January 2025 for valentines night. We decided to book this place as we had been previously, they have a restaurant next door which had an indoor soft play (for the kids) and good food! It wasn’t until so many days before our stay we had a email to say the restaurant was closed (soft play too) and they was doing complimentary hot drinks in the morning free of changes and croissants etc, very stale and a bit of a cop out if you ask me… they wasn’t fresh which we had imagined, all in packaging, if I had known sooner or if they had stated this about the restaurant on the website as i had booked it through there official website I would of booked elsewhere, a bit naughty and misleading. To say we was in a family room people late as night was shouting and woke my 2yo daughter up so we didn’t have a peaceful night was very unsettled so not a pleasant stay. Would we stay again? Hmm not sure very disappointed this time round

OK. You get what you pay for I guess. Nowhere to eat as restaurant was closed but was assured there would be a complimentary breakfast of pastries and fruit. It turned out to be an apple and an inedible green banana. Pastries had run out. Apparently. Passed reception a few times and heard the same message to other guests. The room was basic but the bed was good, as always. A big mouldy mark on the wall where a makeshift repair had been made. We were situated by a corridor door which made a noise like somebody was trying to get into the room every time it was opened. Nice view of an industrial complex.

What you see is what you get at this Premier inn.... Needs some tender loving care and a freshen up, but did the job. Breakfast was a bit chaotic but once seated, the food was good

Lovely restaurant and great staff, especially Robyn and Beckey, doing what they can to make the hospitality a pleasure. Great hotel service as well from check-in to the room it's self. Happily stay again for business or pleasure.

Stayed here recently for a few nights whilst working away. Good location as it can't be seen too easily from main roads nearby (better for keeping vans out of sight overnight). The room was as you'd expect for a Premier Inn clean enough, comfy bed, TV in the room, and the water pressure in the shower was really good, definitely a bonus after a day's graft. Staff were friendly polite and helpful, And Katy made our evening with both her incredible service and banter. The food was good, evening menu was 'pub grub' food with healthy portion sizes and breakfast options were also good. Did see rats scurrying around outside on a few occasions but didn't notice any rodent traps placed anywhere, something could be done about this. Overall a good stay, what you would expect from a Premier Inn.

The hotel is very clean and tidy, if you are traveling for work it's grand. The best thing about the hotel is the service, all the staff are great, particularly my wee pal Katy

Good value, great service in restraunt by Katie 😁

Stayed here a few times and had fantastic time. KATY was always very welcoming and always asking if there was anything else I required. Katy was very friendly and very helpful.

Great stay, travelling for work solo as a woman, Premier Inn have it covered! So so impressed, not having to say room numbers, being located not down the end of the corridor etc! Katy in the restaurant was also really lovely too :)

Had a lovely evening at this hotel, made special by a very cheerful, and welcoming Katie. She was enthusiastic, warm, helpful, and very polite. She’s a credit to the premier Inn.

Fantastic service and dinner was great very tasty and Katy our server was super cheerful and happy to help was lovely to see

Ideal place to stay when visiting work HQ near Barnsley. Some noise from construction going on opposite but not too bothersome. Rooms furnished and cleaned to a very good standard. Quite hot at night but room fan provided. Staff very friendly and helpful. Ate at onsite restaurant which is also being refurbished, good variety at breakfast and restaurant staff also lovely. Steak was well cooked and brownie dessert excellent

I really enjoyed my stay at this Premier Inn. The building is lovely and the interior is welcoming and clean. All the staff are super friendly and really helpful. My room was very clean and had plenty of space. I had an excellent few nights sleep on the very comfy bed. The bathroom was spotless too with a powerful, full shower. I was equally impressed by the cooked breakfast. Each morning, consistently well cooked and included surprisingly high quality produce. I would happily stay here again and would recommend to friends and family. They say you get what you pay for. Well, for a budget hotel, I feel I got much more than I paid for.

Family meal ,food all came together for 8 of us, lacking atmosphere

Stayed at the hotel for two weeks and I have to say the girls on reception Becky especially was so helpful and so was a lady called kerry , So very helpful all the staff and also a lady in the breakfast room her name was Chris Evans she was spot on with everything thank you so much for a wonderful stay

Friendly staff and easy check-in after booking online. Clean, tidy and comfortable rooms. Spacious room, and bathroom. Free WiFi Very comfortable beds as we have come to enjoy at Premier Inn.

Stated here before, the hotel is a bit tired now, location is not the best but breakfast is great and the staff are really good

A great night's sleep following a long drive. Clean, comfortable rooms with lovely service from the two ladies we met on duty during our check in and check out. Fan in room helpful, hairdryer and complete blackout provided by the curtains. The bath filled quickly. Toiletries provides at the sink and bath along with a hospitality tray and kettle in the room. Booked breakfast for the Brewers fayre next door in the morning. Great place to stop over, good location being a short drive away from Barnsley and a retail park.

Quiet and comfortable as always

A good Premier Inn with pub attached for dinner and breakfast if required. I wish they had facilities to charge electric cars though.

Spot on very helpful and polite 10/10

Good hotel didn't like that the rooms were not cleaned daily 😕

There was 8 of us coming from glasgow for a family funeral. Arrived with all the clothes and was told we couldn't get in the rooms to 3pm so we asked is any ready and we could just put stuff in room and freshen up a bit as we had been travelling from 8am and it was 1.30pm we were then told if we paid £10 the room would be ready. Couldn't believe what the girl said so after thinking about it I paid the £10 so we could all get a rest and freshen up. We had got the meal deal which is great for the money the meals were nice. But they never told us the heating wasn't working in the restaurant and it was freezing which made us all eat our dinners quickly. The rooms do need done up and bit dated but bed as always very comfy.

Very disappointed we had a party off 8 who arrived at 1,30 in the afternoon after we left glasgow at 8am a long drive so hoped we would have a warm friendly welcome when we arrived but nope we were told you can't get into your rooms unless you pay a £10 charge ok we know there is a cheack in time with.most hotels but after a 5 hour drive it would have been nice to try and even accommodate us on entering room very disappointed furniture very dated and let's the whole premier inn image let down so we booked for dinner staff where pleasant we all enjoyed our food but restaurant was freezing cold did mentioned this to reception who said I thought they got the heating fixed so she obviously knew there has been a problem over all feel very let down and won't be back
