"Runnymede First and foremost Grant is amazing…"

First and foremost Grant is amazing getting the holiday off to a great start. Comfortable coaches,great accommodation, excellent excursions no need to say more. Looking forward to my next holiday.

"Picked up at home address at 06:20"

Picked up at home address at 06:20, driven down to Hotel in London via coach, driver Grant was very helpful and funny, made the journey pleasant.
The Runnymede on Thames Hotel and Spa was really good, we had 3 good days out on the coach, Richmond, Hampton Court and Windsor Castle, all exellent. Hotel food really good choice, entertainment very good. Well worth the experience, certainly recommended.

"Another enjoyable good companion holiday "

Palmers take the strain from organising a holiday
Excellent negotiation skills by the tour host.
Safe driving by coach driver.
Nothing was too much trouble
Hotel staff excellent but perhaps not enough staff for number of guests.

"Satisfied customer "

From booking your holiday to the end of it is a pleasant professional experience the staff in travel shop the coaches driver courier hotels couldn't be more helpful throughly enjoyed my palmer holidays

"Whilst I enjoyed some of my holiday…"

Whilst I enjoyed some of my holiday with Palmers I was surprised that approximately 50% of the coach seats were booked by a bereavement group.
Palmers write ups in the brochure and on line state....... 'Relax with like-minded people' but trying to chat to fellow travellers I had difficulty in knowing who was who.
That has put me off future coach holidays. Our driver Grant and hostess Judith were first class as was the location.

"Christmas at Mercure Daventry Court hotel"

This was a great Christmas holiday ,home pick up and return excellent, check in at hotel great, drinks & snacks on arrival very welcome.
Hotel and room very well appointed, clean and welcoming.
The mainly young staff were Brilliant so helpful nothing too much trouble and it was very busy but well managed
The food was good and plentiful with lots of choice
The entertainment was mostly good and I understand the Casino was a hit
The only negative was no hostess/host as this was a good companions holiday.
Would happily recommend this holiday and this hotel, well done Palmers

"Hogmanay "

This was the first palmers holiday that I would not describe as great, no entertainment on the first night 😢, not good. New year's eve gala dinner had no choices ! I never found a starter that I liked over the 3 nights ! On the 3rd night then only entertainment was a quiz & a game of bingo, very poor. Our excursion to the Kelpies on new year's Day was cancelled because of a tiny bit of snow. The driver had already made it quite clear that he'd rather not be going out on new year's Day, he wanted to have a few drinks on new year's eve. Are we to be reimbursed for the excursion that we'd paid for ? I have been on several palmers holidays and never been so disappointed before. Maybe you should not use that red rose driver, Martin, anymore.

"Lovely but .....The taxi that picked us up was too…"

The taxi that picked us up was too small for 4 people very squashed. The trip to Southport .. too early in the morning everything was closed, disappointing might have been better leaving later and going in to Blackpool. The hotel was lovely and the food was excellent.

"Christmas on the prom We were very well treated by all staff…"

We were very well treated by all staff and made to feel most welcome,the hotel was clean as were the bedrooms,parts could do with a bit of a makeover,
Food was pretty good,very few options though what there was was acceptable,pity there was no prunes or orange segments at breakfast.
Overall a quite enjoyable stay

"Belton Woods Hotel Lincolnshire"

The hotel was exceptional, accommodation, food and staff were all excellent. I only gave the holiday 4 stars because of the driver. He actually drove the coach into an Asda car park and did not apologise. He always said he would let us know what we were doing the next day at dinner but he never did. We had to find out things for ourselves. I know he was not a usual Palmer's driver and it was noticeable.
