Budget Hotels – Travelodge, Premier Inn, Days Inn – Which is the Best?
We have recommended several different Budget Hotel Chains over recent months, as well as Special Offers at more expensive hotels. The purpose of this article is to summarise what we see as the benefits of each of Travelodge, Premier Inn and Days Inn.
Number and Location of Hotels
Premier Inn is an impressive winner if you are looking purely at the number of hotels, with over 500 across the UK. Travelodge comes a respectable second, with about 350, so both Premier Inn and Travelodge have an extensive choice in town and airport locations. Days Inn Hotels are much fewer in number, between 20 and 30, although some are conveniently positioned in Welcome Break service stations if you need to break up a journey on the motorway.
Quality of Accommodation
Premier Inn and Travelodge are both generally rated 3 star, and Days Inn 2 Star. However, don’t let the 2 Stars fool you, as on Booking.com the Warwick M40 Days Inn which I stayed at recently had an 8 out of 10 rating from 118 customers. The Days Inn room was clean and comfortable, and personally I would rank it as almost equal to the Travelodge – and with some extras like biscuits, tissues and shower gel/shampoo which Travelodge don’t provide in order to save money. I would certainly place Premier Inn in top slot here.
Quality of Food
As cooked food is available at every Premier Inn, with restaurants being one of Beefeater, Brewers Fayre, Table Table, Taybarns, or the Hotel’s own, they have to be awarded first place for food. The buffet breakfast is also more extensive than Travelodge and the only Days Inn I have stayed at was at a motorway service station which meant the food wouldn’t win any awards. I would place Travelodge joint second with Days Inn, as those with a Bar Cafe offer you as as much as you can eat for the cooked buffet breakfast, but those without can mean you have little choice for breakfast unless it is one of those next to a Little Chef. All three chains have ‘Kids Eat Free’ offers.
Price
If Price is the most important factor then Travelodge wins ‘hands down’. Their frequent sales, and the sheer volume of rooms they sell at £19 and £29 is amazing, and has really opened up the market to those on a lower budget. Days Inn comes in second, as you can purchase rooms at some of their hotels for just £29.95 or £35. Premier Inn trails the pack in this case, as their cheapest rooms are £49. All three chains have family rooms at this price.
Conclusion
- If money is not a significant factor, then Premier Inn is the clear winner.
- If you can take advantage of the non-refundable ‘saver rooms’, and you know you won’t have to cancel and lose your money, then Travelodge offers great value accommodation at a fantastic price, and is highly recommended.
- If you need to break up your journey, and want clean and comfortable rooms near the motorway at a competitive price, then Days Inn can also be a great deal (but book through booking.com to get the best price).

Premier Inn Voted Best Family Travel Facilities in 2007 and 2008
We have been reviewing what Premier Inn have to offer, and have concluded they really are worth a close look for families.
Premier Inn have been voted the ‘Best Family Travel Facilities‘ for the last two years in the Tommy’s Parent Friendly Awards. With Premier Inn‘s class-leading budget hotels, and their emphasis on catering for families with young children, it is easy to see why.
- More choice – a class-leading network of over 500 hotels (150 more than Travelodges) means that there is likely to be a Premier Inn close to where the guest wants to stay.
- Nice roomy bedrooms, comfy surroundings and friendly service – everything a guest needs, from only £49 per room (not per guest) per night.
- Licensed bars and restaurants in or adjoining every hotel (not licensed at Motorway service areas), serving good food and drink at a reasonable price.
- An eat-as-much-as-you-like hot or continental breakfast served in every hotel.
- Under-16s stay and eat breakfast free.
- Up to two children and two adults can sleep in our spacious family rooms at no extra cost. All hotels provide good quality cots for babies and toddlers too.
- Up to two under-16s can eat breakfast for free when one adult purchases a full Premier Breakfast.
- Exclusive access to Premier Inn Days Out – discounted entry, generally 2-for-1 or Kids go free, to over 800 top visitor attractions across the UK.
- Free kids packs for children, containing a mini story book, activity book, colouring sheet, pencils and competitions.
- A Good Night Guaranteed, or your money back.
If you have not already done so, now’s a good time to check out the Premier Inn website for available hotels and the Premier Inn Days Out Offers. Get booked up early for the Summer Holiday Days Out – with the highest occupancy levels in the Hotel Business, the available rooms at the Premier Inn of your choice will soon get booked up!

Holiday Inn Stratford Upon Avon from £70 per Room Flexible Rate
The Holiday Inn Stratford Upon Avon certainly struck me as a more luxurious choice than the Travelodges I usually stay at. The Travelodges have their place, and I recommend them when you just need a clean and comfortable room for the night and have the option of the amazing price of a Travelodge Saver Room.
However, for my visit to the marvellous town of Stratford Upon Avon I was after a little more luxury, hence my choosing the Holiday Inn. Looking ahead to August, Flexible Room Rates start at £70 per room, and there are Dinner, Bed and Breakfast packages for two available at a room price of just £94 if you choose the advance purchase non-refundable option.
There are plenty of little touches to make sure you know you are in a 4 star hotel.
I am always pleased to see biscuits on the tea tray. And going into the bathroom I was reassured to see there are flannels there too. It’s a small thing, I know, but I do like to have a flannel supplied in the bathroom. Of course, there is also the usual selection of toiletries, and the chrome fittings add a touch of class.
Apart from the terrestrial channels, there is also Sky One and Sky Sports on offer, although I don’t recommend anyone use the telephone where the starting prices are 55p per minute for a local call!
The Holiday Inn Stratford also boasts an indoor pool, sauna and whirlpool, if you want some relaxation before heading for the theatre.
The Holiday Inn is close to centre of Stratford Upon Avon, which means it is ideally located for a weekend or mid-week theatre break.
Don’t forget, if you book direct with ICHotels through the link below you will benefit from their Lowest Internet Price Guarantee.
