I am a manager of a care home for younger adults with physical disabilities in Somerset. I am so grateful to this hotel for supplying so many overhead hoists in their rooms it made a trip to London for my clients so much easier and more comfortable for my staff. Congratulations to Premier Inn they deserve commending for the effort made that makes access for people with disabilities in their hotel.

Plenty of room for transfer with the hoist from wheelchair to the bed, the mattress was really comfortable. No automatic doors once your inside so does require some manoeuvring to get through the internal doors. Food was fantastic and overall service excellent, would stay again 100%

Fantastic!!!! Well done premier inn please please try and upgrade all your hotels to have some rooms with celling hoists.

I stayed in the room with the hoist over bath. So well thought out. Great to be able to have a bath. At home I self hoist so the one little think was I need to be pushed by carer a it is only electronic up and down.

Have a great stay we did.

They have bed blocks too raise bed if you ask.

A note from CHuC - some guests may find that the track across the bed is too far towards the bottom. This is something we are well aware of and we are trying to get it rectified

Whitbread owned Premier Inn are the latest hotel group to start installing ceiling track hoists. Their Stratford East hotel is the first one to have a ceiling hoist installed.

Reviews for Premier Inn Stratford East

Name: Paul
Date of visit: 10/23

My wife has high needs, is immobile and needs assistance to go out and about and we use a ceiling track hoist at home for all transfers.

We’re both big Abba fans and wanted to see the Voyage show in London and lived too far away to drive there and back in a day. I found the Premier Inn Stratford through this site and it has 1 room with a ceiling track hoist, room 104.

Booking it was a little complicated, I had to ring the hotel direct to see if that 1 room was available on the night we wanted. I was then told to book a disabled room on line and then ring back with a booking reference, they would then make sure I was assigned the room with the hoist. I did this a few months in advance (plus I rang the week of the event just to make sure as no hoist meant no trip!). The room itself was big, great for the wheelchair. The wet room is big, lots of rails, seat for shower and it even had a shower chair (non reclining), lowered sink, a good set up. The hoist could go through from the bed to the shower seat.

The hoist itself was ok, it was on charge when we got there and it did sound like the battery had seen a bit of action and we charged it when not in use, it worked ok. There was a sling in the wardrobe which was surprising but I’d always recommend taking your own (most places don’t provide them). As they had aligned the hoist to go through to the wet room it meant if you lowered straight down on the bed you were quite near the bottom of the bed, so some pushing as it came down to get the head on the pillow required, but we coped ok. I’d also say the bed was quite low which meant I was kneeling on the floor to roll my wife. We had other people in our group in a nearby non adapted room and their bed was higher which would have been better for the disabled room.

It’s a Premier Inn, so really clean, nice comfy bed etc. the room is on the same floor as reception and the restaurant (first floor), lifts to exit on ground floor. Staff were excellent, as was breakfast buffet, there were alarms in the room and bathroom which we didn’t use, but I assume a member of staff would come if activated. There was a bar near the restaurant and a couple of snack/drink vending machines. Check out was 12 which was great. The hotel is part of the Stratford shopping centre so shopping and plenty of places to eat, all great for the wheelchair, stations for tube etc. we drove there and parked in car park A which was easy access to the hotel, cost us £16 for just shy of 24 hours.

The Abba venue was a flat 1 mile walk, it’s also close to the London Stadium where West Ham we’re playing so busy on the Sunday as we went to the 1pm show, thankfully the football was still on when we left so we didn’t get stuck in football traffic.

We had a great time (amazing show), the hotel set up wasn’t perfect but we have high needs and we managed perfectly fine. Without this hotel and it’s hoist not sure we could have done the show so well done Premier Inn Stratford.

Reviews for Z Hotel

Name: Beck
Date of visit: 02/18

Very nice hotel, spacious room and bathroom.

The hoist track went from the bed directly into the bathroom, with 'points' in the track to take you over the toilet or the bath. We had a problem with the track running too close to the bathroom door but the staff seemed keen to put this right. I think we may have been the first guests to actually use the hoist so they were glad to have our feedback.

The double bed is against the wall which does give more floor space but may cause a problem for your partner climbing into bed. I daresay it could be moved.

Good breakfasts in the modern Z cafe.

Fantastic central location and good pies in the local pubs!

Brilliant! Luxurious break.
I`ve stayed here twice September 2016 and 2017. The first time was before the hoist went over the toilet. Its all sorted now. Myself, I didn't have a issue with the door as the other review states, but it was very near.
Apart from the Crown Plaza this is the only hotel with a ceiling hoist that made me feel normal, normal in a great way. Getting the same or very similar experience to everyone else!
Very spacious and looks really nice.
I just wish there were more like this.
