My husband and I travel around Europe for nine months of the year and have to be careful with our budgeting. We often use the Premiere Classe chain of budget hotels and realise that we get what we pay for, i.e. a bed with clean sheets, a bathroom and free wifi. We know what to expect.
However, today we were very pleasantly surprised when we found that we had booked a second generation Premiere Classe where the rooms are inside the warm, centrally heated building. Our room was larger than normal, also the bathroom and generally the room was furnished to a much higher standard than that to which we are used. Our bed is comfortable, the room is clean, the receptionist smiling and helpful - we always ask for extra pillows and this is never a problem - so all in all this has to be the most pleasant Premiere Classe yet for us.
The Campanile is just across the road and Premiere Classe guests are gven a 15% discount voucher for meals in their restaurant. Excellent.
