Premier Inn Gatwick North Terminal

Hi all.
We are looking at booking 1 night at the Premier Inn North Terminal before our flight next September.

We have stayed there a couple of times before. When I checked today, the price is showing as £107. Does anyone know if the prices have gone up? as we have never paid anywhere near that amount for a 3 star hotel.

Thanks
James

Sounds toppy to me. We paid less for Hampton by Hilton which is an even better location.

I know. We paid £78 in September this year at the Premier Inn, and we thought that was quite high. It's only a standard hotel after all. Nothing special.

Those rates are the fully flexible ones so they are high at the moment. Give it a few weeks and the cheaper semi-flexible rates will be released 👍

Thanks for that. I was starting to get a bit worried about the price.

I'm staying there September next year. I booked at the Flex rate a few weeks ago and it was £57 then. I've just checked and it's currently £97 so I think I did well there!

Is fully flexible and semi-flexible something new? When I stayed there a couple of months ago it was either Flex rate or Saver rate. With Flex you could make changes and with Saver you couldn't.

It used to be flexible / saver and then it became flexible / non-flexible. Recently I’ve noticed it’s changed to flexible (cancel up to 1pm on arrival day), semi-flexible (cancel up to 14 days before arrival) and non-flexible (no changes). However, these are only released at certain amounts of time out from booking. Seem to have been a lot of changes to their system recently. You did well with £57 methinks!
