Premier Inn Coventry City Centre (Earlsdon Park) hotel
A stately-building budget stay near the cathedral
About this hotel
This Premier Inn occupies a stately period building in the Earlsdon Park area, giving it a slightly different character from the chain's other Coventry properties despite the same predictable room standard inside. It sits within a short taxi ride of Coventry Cathedral and the wider cathedral quarter, making it a reasonable base for families splitting their trip between The Wave and the city's sights rather than staying purely park-focused. The on-site restaurant and bar cover dinner without needing to drive back into town after a long day, and complimentary Wi-Fi keeps everyone connected between pool sessions. Breakfast is available for an extra charge at check-in or booking, and the period building's public rooms give the stay a bit more character than a purpose-built block.

Our take
This suits budget-conscious families who want a Premier Inn's reliability with a slightly more distinctive building than the ring-road alternatives, and who're happy with a drive to The Wave rather than a walk. It's less suited to families wanting free parking guaranteed, since that isn't confirmed at this particular property the way it is at the ring-road Premier Inn.
- ✓Book breakfast in advance if you want it, since the on-site rate is higher than pre-booking online.
- ✓Ask about parking availability and cost when booking, since it isn't automatically included at this city-centre location.
- ✓Reserve family rooms early for school holidays, as this property's period building means fewer rooms than a purpose-built chain hotel.
