Do you love all things festive at this time of the year? Premier Inn might have the perfect job for you.
The hotel chain is looking for a Christmas Grotto Tester who will, along with their loved ones, test Premier Inn’s bespoke Christmas Grotto hotel room in Farringdon, London.
They will also enjoy a trip to Hyde Park’s Winter Wonderland and a private black cab tour of London’s famous Christmas lights.
Winners will tuck into a Premier Inn breakfast and receive up to £150 towards travel costs, included as part of the Grotto Tester opportunity.
What’s in the Christmas Grotto hotel room?
The winning guests can expect matching family pyjamas, a hot chocolate station and Baylis & Harding festive toiletries in the main bedroom and bathroom.
Next door, they will enter a Grotto room where they will find a decorated tree and a festive creation station for creating their own mementoes of their trip to take home. Santa will leave some additional treats under the Christmas tree too.
Those who win and test the Christmas Grotto Package will need to report back on their experience after trying it out.
They will need to take photos/videos of their experience in the Christmas Grotto hotel room and these will be used by Premier Inn as part of the Grotto trial and promotional materials.
