The staff are helpful and friendly the dining and seating areas are near reception which is clean and has plenty of light . The breakfast was buffet and very good ,they also have a dining menu which we did not use . The hotel has good WiFi and free parking . The location was also good 5-6 miles from Barnsley ,with a supermarket opposite and easy access to low cost restaurants and fast food outlets . The hotel is also very close to a country park . A few niggly problems ,our last stay at a different Holiday Inn the sink had no plug ,this one had one but it was broken .

Premier Inn Barnsley Central M1 J37

10/10 Excellent

"What a great stay. Hotel was clean and comfortable. Both of us thought the bed was exceptional and had wonderful sleeps . What stood out the most was the friendliness of the staff who we felt worked very hard to do their jobs and look after the guests.The manager(?) Kyle was the true standout. He really made us feel at home,was extremely helpful, efficient and instantly likeable. Due to the experience at the Barnsley location we looked in to booking at another site but unfortunately the hotel was full. We would certainly stay again at Premier in Barnsley and would readily recommend it to anyone"

Wortley Cottage Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely home from home. Very welcoming host, rooms well equipped and spotless. Definitely recommend "
