Premier Inn is the UK’s leading hotel brand. With over 700 hotels, we are now the biggest hotel brand in the UK. People ask me how we got here- well it’s a story of huge ambition, rapid expansion and constant growth. We’ve set our sights even higher for the next five years. Our aim is to reach about 85,000 Premier Inn UK rooms by 2020, which would mean opening an incredible 200 new hotels in the next 5 years. To make it happen, we plan to invest billions of pounds – and not just in opening and refurbishing sites but also in providing quality training and development, and finding new products and services that our customers will love. Our success didn’t happen by accident. From our talented teams in Support Centre to the passionate people working in our hotels, everyone plays an important part in making us the UK’s leading hotel brand.
