Great For Arena and City Centre

Good location for the Utilia Arena, 15 mins walk. Friendly check in, good sized clean room. Breakfast staff were very polite, food was excellent, good choice, cooked properly with everything available. Only downside was not being able to open the windows, fan helped, it was very hot!

Historical Hotel with tons of charm and comfort

If you are looking for a hotel with charm and an old world feel, this is it. While it's not one of those chain hotels, it's got a comfy, cozy feeling with lots of history (Tolkien stayed here). The rooms are very comfortable with lots of charm & character. I can't say enough about how nice & welcoming the staff is either. Top notch. Order the morning breakfast, well worth the cost. Very close to Uni of Birmingham & about 2 miles from Bull Ring, downtown area. Right on transit routes, so no need for a car. Very close by a grocery store. Honestly, couldn't be happier with my choice. If you are looking for a chain hotel, this isn't it, but if you are looking for something different, this is the place for you. 6 out of 5 stars. AMAZING

Shame…could be better and I won’t return!

Tv would not work. I went to reception and the receptionist said ‘oh yeah, I know about that’! Came to my room and pulled a wire out and put it back in again saying that every time I put the tv off and in again I had to do that! Said the ‘maintenance man’ said it was fine if they just do that and so it’s working!! So in the morning I nearly pulled the tv off the wall to get it to work by pulling out a wire at the back of it and having to put it back again! £15 for overnight parking, a bit steep!! Struggled to climb into the bath to get a shower and I am middle aged, not too old, as it’s a huge step over due to tiling edging! Room was freezing! Breakfast was delicious but both toasters broken, again, told it was known about but the ‘maintenance man’ just wiggles it and says it’s working! Shame about the faults and freezing room because it could be grand! I travel weekly and certainly won’t be going back! I need to relax when I am away with work, not go to reception find someone to fix the tv that they know is faulty and ask for help with a simple toaster…oh, and sit cold at night watching the tv (eventually)!…
