My stay at Premier Inn Blackburn Town Centre was a mix of comfort and challenges. The location couldn't be better, right next to the beautiful Blackburn Cathedral and just a walk away from the train station. However, I faced issues with the room's temperature, which made for a rather restless night. Overall, while the friendly staff and convenient location stood out, the discomfort in the room was a significant drawback.

I just had an amazing stay at the Premier Inn Blackburn Town Centre! The location was perfect, right in the heart of the town and close to the train station, which made exploring super easy. My room was clean and spacious, with a beautiful view of the Cathedral. The only tiny downside was that the restaurant closed early, but the breakfast was absolutely delicious, so I can’t complain too much!

I recently stayed at Premier Inn Blackburn Town Centre, and while the location was fantastic, being just across from the train station and close to several restaurants, my experience was mixed. The room was spacious and clean, but an alarming incident in the middle of the night really marred the stay. Despite the friendly staff and a decent breakfast, I left feeling apprehensive about returning.
