The Birmingham Hotel - Birmingham

The best part of my stay was the English breakfast--a large plate with eggs, tomato, mushrooms, sausage, ham, hash browns. Also included available was a continental breakfast buffet. The room was comfortable yet a bit worn--not a problem for me. The hotel staff was very polite and responsive. Parking is ample but if you depended on public transport, […] a cab was the best choice and was reasonable. Parts of the hotel exterior was boarded up. Some of the surrounding neighborhoods were polluted with trash on the streets yet others were fine. Plenty of neighborhood pubs that were friendly. I would stay here again yet could have gotten much better rate dealing directly with the hotel. Overall the stay was good. Read more

This hotel is one train stop to Moore Street where you can then go walking to the town. Train is expensive so be careful when you travel, there are pick and off pick times and the price of the ticket gets 1-2 pound cheaper. It makes difference if you planning to stay for a while. Hotel room is clean but it could use renovation. How much you pay that […] much you get. Solid hotel for cheep price. Read more

I was really satisfied with my stay at this hotel spacially the hotel personell. They were very polite and helpful, and the hotel rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel's location was very good, as it is close to downtown Birminghan and its airport. Overall it's very good hotel to stay. The only thing i was not satisfied was the tv; don't have many […] chanels to choose from and room telephone; don't have access til call international. Read more

If you are on a budget and like to use the train to access city center, etc. This is a good place. I found the staff very helpful and accommodating. It is, as they say, cheap and cheerful!

I will not be going back. The hotel looks ok from the outside but internally it's not good at all. The rooms totally stink of cigarette smoke and there is alot of young party goers having fun till the early hours of the morning. Definatley not for business stays.

I was surprised to even book this hotel after some of the other pretty damning reviews, however I'm glad I did! I had no issues with poor cleanliness, had a nice welcome from the lad on reception and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room I had. The bed was comfy. I liked the little separate dressing area. I didn't have breakfast so can't […] comment on that. The car park seemed to be fine and has a camera on it. Very handy to be across the road from a train station. Only one down-side and that was being woken by the noise from lorries going past in the morning but then again, it is a main road. So, from my experience, it was worth giving this hotel a try. I would use it again if in that area. Read more

This hotel proves that you get what you pay for. My boyfriend and i stayed there for 2 nights and were quite disappointed to be honest. Firstly let me say the staff were lovely and really helpful - especially the guy with the afro. Now onto the bad bits. The bar served coke out of a 2L bottle and it was totally flat and disgusting! God knows how long […] it had been lying there. I tried the diet coke the 2nd day and it tasted of carbonated water. The room had a few flaws. Firstly the room itself was freezing with only a thin duvet and 1 thin pillow each. The tv did not work at all - wouldnt even turn on! Only half of the lights in the room worked & there was a HUGE hole surrounding the light switch on the ceiling. You could see right through to the second floor (creepy). The knob which holds back the curtains when opened fell off the wall when we went to open the curtains. The water in the sink in the bathroom was absolutely disgusting! It was cloudy white and really really put me off to the point where i refused to brush my teeth in that sink. On the last day I decided to use the toilet in the downstairs reception area before leaving and they were horrendous!! There wasnt one clean toilet to use in the ladies, nevermind a toilet that had actually been flushed. There was sick all over the floor obviously from somebody the night before (it was now 2pm). The location of the hotel was handy enough, however if you're going for a weekend break i wouldnt recommend this hotel if you're hoping to spend your time in the town. The train station is just across the road, opposite the hotel, however on the Saturday evening and all day Sunday there were no trains to be seen! A taxi is approximately £10 one way. Overall the hotel is cheap and cheerful, cant say i would want to stay in it again but if you are just looking for somewhere cheap and very basic then this is the hotel for you. I ended up missing my flight on the Sunday and stayed in an Ibis hotel for a lot cheaper than this Read more

in desperate need of the upgrade it is at present going through. The guy on duty the evening i arrived was very helpful, but could not find anyone when i went to check out at 7am so had to leave room key behind reception desk and called back later to tell them i had left

I stayed 1 night, the service was efficient the staff were friendly and helpful. The location was ideal, adjacent to train station and 1 stop away from the centre of the city. Be aware trains do NOT stop at this station on a Sunday!!!! Room and facilities perfectly adequate. Would stay again.

this is a rubbish hotel..it is next to the railway staion but nothing else...the outside is scruffy..and the inside not much better..we were told that it is in the red light district..judging from the sounds coming from a hotel room near ours, who knows!!!!. The staff are not very helpful and there is absolutely no atmosphere. It is very much dated […] and facilites they advertise on line are not available. Go somewhere else...thats my advice Read more

Airy spacious room next to Small Heath Station, very clean and pleasant.However; rooms facing the road are incredibly noisy from road traffic, there was no hot water in the morning, smoking room requested but not given, nor even mentioned.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

very shabby & not at all worthy of 3 stars. although reasonably clean the bed was past its prime & was extremely uncomfortable. reception was little more than here is the key card to your room & then left us to get on with it. room was by a very busy road with no double glazing so traffic noise could be heard constantly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Taxi to Mew Street £8. Taxi to NEC £15. Room was reasonable size. Rasdiators in the room were on full blast which essentially made it like a sauna even with the window open. I asked 3 times at reception for the radiators to be turned down / off with no sucess. a noise like a foghorn happened everytime you flushed the toilet. Staff appeared disinterested […] / fed up. I have never written a hotel review before but my bad experience here led me to do so. Plus poinr - it was cheap and one of the few hotels available at the last minute. Read more

hotel was what was expected for the cost. only grouse hotel NOT DISABLED FRIENDLY, stairs everywhere.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Näyttää siltä , että hotellilla ei meme kovin hyvin ja se on jo parhaat päivänsä nähnyt. Hotellissa ja huoneissa on huomattavaa kuluneisuutta. Aamiainen on valmistarvikkeista ja kahvi murukahvia. Ravintola ei ollut auki ollenkaan , joten syömässä piti käydä kaupungilla taxilla. Hinta/laatusuhde ei mielestämme ole kohdallaan

Goedkoop en toch eindelijk geen duurkoop. Zeker niet in dit geval. Perfect voor eigen vervoer gangers, want er is gratis parking en centrum is namelijk binnen 5min bereikt, parkeren is daar niet duur. Laat je niet gek maken met de GPS, volg de locale borden naar de centrum. Ontbijt kan ook in de centrum, veel bezienswaardigheden. Hou wel rekening met […] geen airco op de kamers. Read more

Hotellet var väldigt slitet, bl.a. höll dörren till rummet på att lossna från väggen. Vidare saknade hotellet hiss, trots att flera våningar fanns i byggnaden.

bij aankomst kreeg ik een smerige rokers kamer. vies tapijt met schroeiplekken, gaten, vlekken en alles doordrongen van de sigarettenrook. de peuken lagen zelfs in de dakgoot. de kranen van de douche waren kapot, de stroom viel uit en na klagen kon ik pas de volgende dag een andere kamer krijgen. deze was wel netjes en schoon. schijnbaar rekent men […] met 2 maten. reageer je niet, dan krijg je weinig of geen waar voor je geld. bij klagen kan het allemaal in een keer wel. de wijk zou ik zeker niet in het donker in gaan. vies, dreigend met 100% allochtonen en helemaal geen vertier.
