Top Hotels in Peterborough with Spas

I stayed at the Dragonfly as I was attending a two day work related course in Peterborough. On check in I was asked to leave a £1 refundable deposit on my card - this seemed a little odd as I’d already paid for my room but I agreed. I have not had this deposit refunded - in fact it was taken out of my account five days after I left the hotel. Nothing was broken on my stay. Upon arrival to my room, I noted the faint stagnant smell of old cigarette smoke . I used the bathroom and the hot tap swivelled which I found odd. I was able to use the tap by pressing down hard. I went back to reception to address these issues. The lady advised me they would look into it and get back to me. They didn’t. I found the room I was in (109) was an odd shaped room. The television faced sideways to the bed so made watching television and relaxing in the evening not possible. The double bed I had was in fact two singles pushed together and not of the same height. This made for an uncomfortable night’s sleep. During the night, the room became immensely hot which woke me up. I couldn’t see why as the electric storage heater wasn’t on. The corridor outside was also hot. In the morning, I found the shower door to be stiff and would not close properly. Upon going to dry my hair, there was no plug situated anywhere near the mirror. Being someone with very curly hair who needs to see how they are drying their hair, this was impossible and I had to use the camera on my phone as a mirror. Unfortunately I suffer with food allergies. I spoke to the waiting on lady at breakfast who advised cornflakes were available for myself. Not what I expect having paid £10 for the breakfast. She appeared very put out when I asked her to check with the chef about items on the hot menu. She came back with ‘ the chef doesn’t really know but here is a photo of the hash brown packet’ . I was able to eat either cornflakes or scrambled eggs, mushrooms and tomatoes. Not really acceptable for what I paid. I have contacted the hotel but haven’t heard anything back. It’s a shame this hotel is so outdated- not just in the rooms themselves but with education of allergies for staff and also in their lack of trust for customers when they already have their card details from room paying . It may only be £1 deposit, but every time they don’t refund £1 deposit to 100 people, thats £100 in their pockets for free. This is such a shame as the hotel itself is in a lovely setting.

Nice, cozy and very comfortable hotel. We stayed in room 203 that is spacious and very well decorated. Staff very friendly, breakfast is bed was a bonus! We booked direct and got free breakfast and free upgrade. I see several negative comments about charging in advance, but I don’t see a problem here. All hotels, especially privately run, have their own terms. We were advised that we’ll be charged and we went ahead with it. We’ll definitely stay again when we visit peterborough next time.

Stopped here after a delayed flight from Stansted rather than drive home late. Reception smelt a bit funny but we were not expecting too much, we were pleasantly surprised however in the room, lovely and spacious room, comfortable beds, very good powerful hot shower and other usual facilities you’d expect in a room. We had a lovely relaxing evening before a long drive home the next day, it was very welcomed.

Clean comfortable generous sized room, very comfy bed and good nights sleep. Staff friendly and welcoming. Location brilliant for city centre stay, minutes walk from centre and near railway station. Free Car park but got very busy and crowded.

We stayed here for two nights. Lovely hotel with parking in the centre of Peterborough. Couldn’t get our cases up the stairs as no lift, but Kirsty on reception put us on the ground floor, thank you. Ate in the hotel one night, food was good but the service was very slow. Breakfast on both days was very busy but the staff coped very well. There were a few problems, eg a couple forgetting their room number, Losing of car park tickets etc, all quickly sorted without fuss by Kirsty. All hotels should have a Kirsty 😀 Would stay there again next time if we visit Peterborough.

Stay in the heart of Peterborough at our Premier Inn Peterborough City Centre hotel. We're just a short walk from Peterborough's bustling high street, Queensgate Shopping Centre and Peterborough train station, with direct trains to London King's Cross. While you're in Peterborough, take a riverside stroll through Ferry Meadows in Nene Park or explore historic Peterborough Cathedral, just a seven-minute walk from our hotel. When you're feeling hungry, enjoy a delicious meal at our on-site Thyme restaurant, and after a busy day out, look forward to a relaxing sleep on one of our super-comfy Hypnos beds.

We booked a double room for a night and on arrival was pleasantly surprised to be given a suite. Our expectations were not huge but we were happy. The room was huge with a very large bed 2 sofas a chaise longue a double shower (never seen one of them before ) and a jacuzzi bath. We tried out the bath and it was fab except after a while what looked like algae came out of the jets. My partner said the shower was amazing. Now we were given a bigger than expected room so I do not really want to complain except if someone was to actually book this room it did not come with a coffee machine or docking station as advertised and the TV did not work. But We did not mind. Only real issue for us was that the pillows were rock hard. FYI parking is not free and breakfast is £8.99 and check out is 11am which is great. All in all we are happy because we stayed in a bigger than expected room. The whole hotel is old and creaky but ok for somewhere to sleep for a night.
