We had a fantastic two-day stay at Aloft Birmingham Eastside with the family to catch an Aston Villa match. The stadium was just a 5-minute Uber ride away, and getting to the train station was equally convenient. We skipped breakfast but enjoyed a great cup of coffee in the morning—perfect for starting the day. The hotel bar has a relaxed, chill vibe that’s ideal for unwinding after a busy day out. The rooms are spacious, and the beds were incredibly comfortable—great for a good night’s sleep.

Staying at Hotel du Vin Birmingham was a real highlight of my trip to the city. The hotel exudes charm and character, with a cozy, well-designed atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, especially the bathrooms—large and thoughtfully laid out with high-quality fixtures. The location is fantastic; just a short walk from the city center and surrounded by great restaurants and cafes, perfect for evening strolls. One of the biggest perks? The wine selection in the bar is absolutely outstanding—rich, bold, and perfectly paired with the hotel’s elegant vibe. I couldn’t resist a few glasses after dinner! That said, there were a couple of minor issues. The room temperature was quite high throughout the night, and unfortunately, there was no way to turn off the heating system—something that could definitely be improved. Also, breakfast service felt a bit sluggish. While the food options were decent, the execution wasn’t up to par—some dishes seemed undercooked or lukewarm, as if the kitchen was having an off day. A little more attention to consistency would go a long way. Despite those small hiccups, the overall experience was exceptional. The staff were warm and attentive, and the unique blend of style and comfort made this stay truly memorable. I’d happily return and recommend it to fellow travelers looking for something special.
Another outstanding stay at Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre—once again, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

The entire property is spotless, and from the moment we walked in, we felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy. The bed and pillows were incredibly cozy, the bathroom offered a luxurious shower and soaking tub, and the wall-mounted toiletries had a refreshing, pleasant scent. Everything about this hotel feels well cared for. We’re already planning our return visit this Thursday—this place truly hits all the right notes.

You can access the city center via different routes from either side of the hotel—great flexibility. The area is wonderfully peaceful, with only the sound of seagulls breaking the calm. Across the street, there's a fantastic Indian restaurant—flavorful, authentic, and just a 2-minute walk away.

Staying at Premier Inn Birmingham City Centre (New St Station) was an absolute highlight of my trip. The location couldn’t be better—right next to Grand Central shopping centre and just steps from the train station, with McDonald’s conveniently nearby. While the hotel doesn’t provide bottled water, there’s a Tesco just a 3-minute walk away, making it easy to grab drinks or snacks. I did notice some people sleeping outside during both day and night, but the hotel requires a key card for entry, which definitely adds peace of mind when it comes to safety. The room itself is brand new, spotless, and well-maintained—really impressive for the price. I’ve stayed at another Premier Inn near the river before, and my friend mentioned no air conditioning and constant traffic noise, but this one has excellent AC, and even though it faces the railway line, there’s absolutely no noise disturbance. It’s quiet, comfortable, and perfect for a stress-free stay in Birmingham.
