Great location for visiting the city centre. Shame about the £15 parking fee. Advised on booking that if we had booked direct with Best Western, the car park is free.

Room was dusty, dated and very 90s decor. Heating was not working, could not call reception as phone was not working. The thermostat fell off the wall when I touched it (held on with white masking tape). Iron was dusty, room was cold without heating but reception gave me a small fan heater which was too noisy to keep onto sleep which meant I woke up freezing (it was during a cold snap and was frosty outside).

Excellent breakfast beautifully cooked. Best cooked breakfast I've had in any UK hotel. Ukrainian lady attending the dining room was very pleasant and attentive. Room comfortable if a tad cold on arrival (Mid Nov 2025). Instructions given at check-in for getting to my room were unclear; one option apparently being to drag my luggage through the dining room. Took the other option of traversing the overflow car park instead.

I really like this place - it’s not perfect but it’s still a fantastic place to stay. It’s always spotless. The beds are just amazing. Big windows for lots of light. Even the rooms that haven’t been refurbished yet have a nice old world charm about them!

Terrible Experience

Room very old fashioned and dirty (someone needs to learn how to clean mirrors!) we were told that our rooms were the refurbished ones? looking at all the stains on the walls I really don't think so. Hot water coming out of cold tap, told staff 3 times during our stay but just said they will report it to maintenance upon check out, they do not replenish or service your room and we were not told on check in, we just got told we should have read the welcome pack in the room (whoever reads them?) we asked for toilet rolls, clean towels etc... at 3pm, we finally got them at 7pm. Not a pleasant stay which spoiled our annual trip to HOYS - will NEVER stay here again and I suggest other people avoid!

Whilst not unclean, rooms were a little tired and dated however, well priced and good access via Hagley road into the city centre. Great dedicated car parking onsite, although chargeable reasonable price for Birmingham. Good accomodation in comparison to some of the more expensive chain hotels. Staff very courteous and helpful. Nice pub serving Bar food and Drinks.

Alright for a quick night.

Staff were helpful when arounda although local knowledge and assistance was lacking. Reception desk no always manned so had to call and wait for staff. Its an interesting building but it is showing its age in the rooms. Fold out bed mattress for child was in really poor condition. Metal bars/slats were not covered. Kitchen not running over a weekend was surprising.

An unloved room, in a wing of an unloved hotel

The room was adequate and the location of this hotel is good for getting into the city centre. There are also many restaurants within a relatively short distance. The room was in a wing at back of hotel. It felt quite separate. There was no room service during the 3 night stay. Some areas of room (e.g. TV screen) had old stains that had been there for some time.
