The Grand Hotel Birmingham

Staying at The Grand Hotel Birmingham was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The hotel’s central location makes it incredibly convenient—just a short walk from major shopping areas, restaurants, and attractions. My room was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a great night's sleep. What really stood out was the on-site bar downstairs—when we arrived in the evening, there was live music playing by a local band. The relaxed atmosphere and laid-back vibe made it the perfect way to unwind after travel. Breakfast was a classic English buffet: eggs, sausages, toast, cereal, and fresh fruit—all standard but delicious and satisfying. While the selection isn’t as varied as what you’d find in Asian or Chinese breakfasts, it’s exactly what you’d expect from a traditional UK hotel, and done well. Overall, the value for money is excellent, and I’d definitely recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Birmingham.

The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It’s rare to find such a convenient, stylish, and welcoming hotel in the middle of it all. Highly recommend this stay for both leisure and work trips!

Delta Hotels by Marriott Birmingham

We stayed at the Delta Hotels by Marriott Birmingham in Five Ways while dropping off our child for school, and it turned out to be an absolute blessing. The hotel is just a short walk from the University of Birmingham, with a Morrisons supermarket right next door—perfect for daily essentials. On our second day, we took a casual stroll around the neighborhood and were pleasantly surprised to find so many schools and educational institutions nearby. This was especially reassuring since we'd been worried about how our child would settle into life in the UK. We stumbled upon Birmingham Guoke Education right near the hotel, and after learning more about their supervision and academic support services, we made the decision on the spot. It felt like fate—this stay wasn’t just about comfort and convenience; it genuinely helped us solve a major concern. A truly memorable experience that exceeded all expectations.
