Jobs at Premier Inn
What are housekeepers saying about pay at Premier Inn?
-
Best thing
Cheap food. Sometimes decent discounts on hotels. Sometimes good staff to work with.
Worst thing
Hours cut drastically to save the company money. The company only care about shareholders and don’t see team members as people who have their own lives with things to pay for. Their primary goal is to make us work harder for less hours and less pay.

Best thing
Interesting and varied great Team
Worst thing
Expected to do every job in every department. Not paid for breaks (if you manage to get one) no sick pay, always cutting hours in other departments expecting existing staff to cover. Not allowed to respond to rude or unfair comments by guests left on review websites.
