Who we are
You probably know Premier Inn. But there's a lot going on behind the purple sign.
Introduction
Premier Inn is part of Whitbread, one of the UK’s longest-established hospitality businesses. Today, our teams run the UK’s biggest hotel brand, supported by thousands of people working behind the scenes to keep our hotels moving.
Our locations
Where you'll find us
Across the UK & Ireland
With Premier Inn hotels across the UK and Ireland, our teams are part of communities up and down the country. From busy city centres and airports to seaside towns and everything in between, there are all sorts of places to build your career with us.
Whitbread Court, Dunstable
Dunstable is home to our main Support Centre, where teams from across Whitbread work together to support our hotels. Here there’s a subsidised onsite restaurant, coffee shop with baristas, open-plan workspaces, an auditorium and plenty of Whitbread history around the place.
Chancery Lane, London
Our London Support Centre puts us right in the heart of the city. It’s a modern, hybrid workspace designed for working together, with plenty of places to meet, focus and catch up – and everything central London has to offer just outside.
