Brief visit but a good one.

Switched rooms as couldnt get WiFi working at first and had to get some work done but was the hotel's decision and zero fuss. Great room and food, would have stayed longer under different circumstances. And the water options by reception are great!

It was great, clean, central, comfortable and really good value other than reception staff randomly knocking on the door at 1am... they said there had been noise complaints about the room while we were sitting in silence watching TV, but the TV was so quiet you couldn't even hear it in the bathroom. I heard shouting outside later on so I assume that was the actual issue but the staff didn't bother to check before disturbing us at 1am... and when I mentioned this on checkout they didn't seem sorry at all. Overall the room and breakfast were good but the staff 100% have a 'student security' mentality not a 'hotel guest' mentality so it would probably be great if travelling alone for business, but don't expect a hotel-level style of service.

Usually excellent, but my experience this time (in a single bed courtyard view room) was sub par. Room no smaller than usually but a bizarre absence of any furniture other than a study/desk chair, and a shelf for the kettle - room not even carpeted. Very firm bed on castors sliding around all night as the floor was hard. Only two pillows, both as lumpy and unpleasant as the other. The room was stiflingly hot and of course there's no a/c. Opened window but room was above the restaurant area of the conference centre, so all you could hear were all the a/c units and extractors - very noisy indeed, too much so to leave open overnight.

Would definitely recommend!

I stayed here with my boyfriend for one night and it was a perfect stay! I would 100% recommend staying here to others. The staff were lovely and extremely helpful. The room was clean and in great condition, the bathroom was nice and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was a lovely start to our days too. Overall, it was an amazing experience staying in this hotel and in such a great location for a great price too. I’d definitely stay again if visiting Birmingham and would recommend to others too.

Noisy, hot room with no Internet coverage

Boiling hot room, but a small fan was provided. Couldn't access the wifi at all - awful coverage. Very noisy as cars were racing along the road outside with very loud exhausts! Low water flow - both on the tap and the toilet flush. Breakfast was nice enough.
