Staffordshirecruiser Posted June 9, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Hello, we have just booked this cruise. It will be our first on Viking. We were going to book a Premier Inn for Friday night, but there are quite a few, any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strangford Posted June 9, 2021 #2 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Searching on TripAdvisor- by traveller ranking - there are 4 Premier Inns in the top 20 - out of 121 places to stay. Southsea number 10, North Harbour number 12, City Centre number 14 and Port Solent number 18. I know a lot of people don't rate TripAdvisor but it's the first place I look when researching for a holiday - mostly for restaurants as we prefer self catering accommodation to hotels. For one night - look on the map for the nearest to where the ship will likely be docked - and then check it out on TripAdvisor. We have stayed in 6 or 7 around the country and have been quite happy in each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD1000 Posted June 10, 2021 #3 Share Posted June 10, 2021 We stayed Premier Inn Portsmouth Dockyard. Very clean, helpful staff and a reasonable dinner and breakfast.Do book all in package it’s cheaper. You also need to book your times. It’s an easy taxi ride to the ship.

Staffordshirecruiser Posted June 20, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Hi royallondon The cruise was brilliant - we would have asked to stay on for the next one if we hadn’t had to get back for work. The food, service, design of ship, entertainment, and staff were all seriously impressive. Our fellow cruisers were all a pleasure to sail with and it was easy to cope with the COVID precautions. We feel very lucky to have enjoyed a cruise holiday when so many other people have had their cruises and wider holiday plans disrupted. Here’s to plenty more cruising the Viking Way!!!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
