Just found this video by chance as no mention of location in the title. My wife and I had a mini break in London late last year, our first trip away for several years. We stayed at the Premier Inn Hub at Goodge Street and had a fantastic time. Hotel location perfect and staff great too. We had bought a Two Together railcard too, so had our first rail journey in 20+ years. Another exciting time. It was so good, we've already booked our next trip away, for March, in Edinburgh. We once again booked at P I Hub and picked the Haymarket one, so this video was perfect. The larger room worked out at only £7 more for our 3-night stay, so was well worth it. We are looking forward to the trip .. we'll be travelling by train again .. from Newcastle. Regards from Whitley Bay

Firstly thanks for the brilliant video, just what I needed. I'm looking at a city break in London for a trip down memory lane having now moved to Wales, and just found out about these hubs. I almost gave up looking at London Hotel prices. Like other commenters I just want somewhere to rest my bones each night because I'll be out each day, so the smaller one would be perfect. Thanks again Big Fella, you've given me hope back.

Love the bigger room. I’d go for that. The only thing I do not under stand with the bigger room is there is space next to the bed on each side to have a small side table shelf. Would be good for books and tablets to put at night and not over on the desk.

Brilliant Alex. I've always wondered what these hubs were like, so thank you for sharing x

I have to commend Premier Inn on their internet speed -- the one I stayed at recently in London had the fastest Wifi of any hotel I've stayed in - very similar speed test results to what you showed.

Yeah and it’s free!!!!

Very informative. Wouldn't bother me on my own in the smaller room for one night or even two, looks a little adventure! If away for a weekend or whatever, I just like to get out and about, so minimum time spent in room anyway. Would like to have known price difference?! Hope you have done an Edinburgh tour vlog!

Ah it’s around £20 a night. It’s been rather windy here I’m hoping to get one in tomorrow tho so should, if I do, be up by weekend 👍

I've often wondered what the Hub rooms were like. Interesting. Thanks Alex. X

Yes I agree can’t beat them

Can you remember whether the larger bed was called the 'luxury king size bed' on your booking?

This is not a king-size bed (at least not in the London one I stayed at); it's a zip-link (two singles zipped together). And you can feel that ridge!

Which of the three Hub locations in central Edinburgh would you recommend as the best location/atmosphere?

I’ve only stayed in the 2 that is in the video. The rose Street hotel is bang in the city centre and I deal for attractions and places to eat and drink The Haymarket one is about a 5/10 min walk to city centre with very little shops and restaurants around it. Both are around equal distance from train station (Waverley for Rose St and Haymarket for Haymarket !) Hope this helps you Michael

Bungle2010 thanks for giving this info I’m sure this will help other to decide which hotel to choose.

Did it have a fridge?

No they don’t. In fact I think the only Premier Inn I’ve been to that had a small fridge was Heathrow Terminal 4 in an upgraded room (later the same month I stayed in a standard room and it didn’t have a fridge).

Hi Alex. Great review, I've never heard of the hub so it was really interesting. What's the price difference between the rooms?
