Hello Maureen,
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you found the coach comfortable overall and enjoyed the clean hotel and meals.
We appreciate your comment about the seat belts and will pass that on. Hope to welcome you on another trip soon!
Enjoyable five days,
The Warner Hotel was good; although my bedroom was very small and narrow with single bed! It was ground floor as requested with patio windows opening on to small outside area. Evening entertainment was too loud. I had to remove hearing aid and still had difficulty speaking to or hearing person next to me over the 'music' as did my neighbours. Food excellent. Excursions good. Coach comfortable.

Great to hear your driver was helpful and kept everyone informed – that makes all the difference. We hope to see you on another trip soon!
Windsir and Hampton Court. t indication that all was not…
The first indication that all was not well was when our taxi turned up and said he was taking us to Scotch Corner when our itinerary was for Washington Services. Palmers had not sent us any information regarding this change. The taxi driver was excellent. He contacted Palmers to confirm this destination. When we arrived at Scotch corner there were other couples brought there instead of their original coach pick up point. We waited in the cold for 20 minutes before a driver from a white coach which had been parked all the time we were there came over and announced Windsor and Hampton court. Why did he leave us standing all that time? The coach was not really up to the standard we expected. It rattled and jerked the whole journey. The coach driver did not seem to know where he was going or how many people he was picking up. The hotel was nice if a bit out of the way .Ourvisit to Windsor was not long enough the driver was too interested in getting to the hotel. The Hampton court
visit was very good a full day without the driver. Next day on our way home with a visit to Henley on Thames. When dropping off someone had to sit up front with the driver to direct him into the towns. He missed the turn off at Durham and again someone had to direct him back. We were recommended Palmers from a friend but we will not be using your company again. We thought it was chaos.

Thank you for your review and comments above, I'm sorry to read of the issues you experienced. Unfortunately this tour had to be operated by an alternative coach company due to an operational problem, however this shouldn't have affected your enjoyment or the service you received and we'll certainly look into the points raised. We're sorry for any inconvenience and I hope this won't deter you from booking with us again. Regards, Lisa.
Hampton Court experience
Really enjoyed our recent weekend with Palmers. Good itinerary, with stop offs at Windsor and Henley on Thames. The main event was hampton court; but even with nearly 6 hours free time we still didn't see all of it. The only thing that some people moaned about was that we had to walk about 10mins to the entrance because coaches weren't allowed to drop off outside hampton.
Hotel at Reading football club was fabulous 👌 extremely clean, comfortable and the food was really nice......no hard bacon 🥓 or sausage here. The only downside was that if you wanted to use spa and pool you had to book, and because it was weekend it was fully booked.
The only complaint we had was the bus; it was a bit creaky and the air conditioning wasn't working properly so it was very uncomfortable on our 9 hour journey home!!

Hello Kevin,
Thank you so much for your fantastic and detailed review!
We're thrilled to hear you had such a great weekend with us – from the itinerary and hotel to the food and door to door service, it sounds like many aspects really hit the mark. Hampton Court is a real treasure, and we totally agree – even six hours can fly by when there's so much to explore!
We're sorry to hear about the issues with the coach and air conditioning on the return journey – thank you for flagging that, and please be assured we're looking into it to make future journeys more comfortable. We also understand the spa being fully booked was a bit of a let-down – weekends can be tricky, but we’ll continue working with our partners to improve access where we can.
We hope to welcome you back on another Palmers holiday very soon!
Loverly clean hotel with good food.

First coach trip with Palmers -very positive experience
The taxi arrived a liitle early -which was good The coach was on time. Dave, the driver,was very helpful and approachable. The air con on coachwas good on the way down -not so much on the way back..There was a 3 hour stop off in Windsor which was really enjoyable.
THe Voco hotel in reading was good. The staff were really helpful -even managing to book us in for a swim at short notice. THere wqas a good selection of food - my friend is a vegan and the desserts weren't suitable but when she explained on the 2nd night,the manager in charge of the cafe had a fruit salad freshly prepared for her. Bar prices were steep.
The car park at Hampton court was a bit of a slog to the palace -especially in the heat wave.
Henley on Thames stop off on way home was 2 hours -more than enough.
Dave made sure we had rest stops and when air con wasn't working very well he opened the skylights.

Hello Margaret,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed and balanced review of your first coach holiday with Palmers – we’re so pleased to hear it was a positive experience overall!
It's great to know the taxi and coach services ran smoothly and that Dave, your driver, made a lasting impression with his helpful and approachable manner. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to him.
We’re glad you enjoyed the stop in Windsor and that the Voco Hotel in Reading met your expectations – especially the thoughtful response from the hotel staff in catering to your friend’s dietary needs. That kind of extra care makes a big difference, and we’re happy it was recognised.
Thank you also for your honest feedback about the air conditioning and the walk from the Hampton Court car park – we’ll certainly take this into consideration when planning future trips.
We hope this is the first of many more holidays with us. We’d love to welcome you back again soon!

Coach travel was excellent
Coach travel was excellent, hotel ok could do with a refresh, lounge furniture shabby , dining room ok, food excellent, staff very attentive. All good, our room didn’t have a view, it had a domed roof 12 inches from our window, so we couldn’t see anything. On 2 evenings the hotel had events in the ballroom which was beneath our room so we had vibrating beds and noise until music finished. We shall make sure we have a better room next time even if it costs more.

Taxi failure
Holiday was ok apart from our room being small and at the back of the hotel where all we could hear day and night were the seagulls. On arriving at the services there was no taxi. Our driver had informed Palmer's office that we would be late as a taxi had been late at the previous stop. Apparently they didn't inform the taxi company. Needless to say we weren't impressed and will be very wary about booking with Palmers again.

Bournemouth
Overall the holiday was very good. Coach, driver, hotel were all good. Mike on coach not working which meant we did not get updates during the journey. John did his very best at each stop, could not have done more, but we did not always know where we were.
Three hours in Dorchester was too long. The gardens afterwards warrented extra time.
Otherwise great trip, meals were really good in the hotel, room clean and pleasant. Entertainment on a couple of nights, which was good too.

Excellent, well sited, hotel with friendly and helpful staff. Meals were varied, tasty and well cooked. Desserts were especially tempting!
Coach was comfortable ( once aircon was sorted out) and our driver was entertaining and obliging.
We have enjoyed many coach holidays over the last 20 years, with Palmers and other operators, and in my opinion this one to Sidmouth, was the best of the lot!

Door to door pick up service dreadful.
Holiday was let down by the mini bus door to door service. Driver unwilling to help load luggage and assist a disabled passenger before and after the trip. Then choosing to drive well over the speed limit to get to our destinations. Terrible service.
