The hotel is easy and quick to walk from Birmingham New Street, but Google Maps took us a really long way round. Please put clear walking directions on your website! The Holiday Inn Express main website says you have a spa and golf course😂 Please make it clear that you don’t! The room rate was excellent. No complaints there. But the coffee at breakfast was poor, tasteless, and the eggs were reconstituted/out of a bag. I’d pay more for decent coffee and real eggs/an egg station.

A gem of a hotel.

From arrival to departure, we were very impressed with the staff, room amenities and location of this hotel. The room and communal areas were spotless. The breakfast - included in the price- was fantastic. If we return to Birmingham, we will definitely stay here again.

Me and my daughter stayed at this hotel as we were going to a concert, we had the top floor and the view was great, also they had left drinks chocolate rose petals and a birthday card for my birthday. Beds were so comfortable, it was so quiet. Breakfast in the morning was lovely lots to choose from. Check in was quick and easy, all staff were lovely cannot fault anything at all, we had a great time. Will definitely be staying again.

Excellent stay near Utilita Arena

Really good hotel. Staying in town for a concert at utilita arena and couldnt be better. 15 minute walk from New Street Station. 15 minute walk to Arena along the canal with loads of eating and drinking places around. Hotel itself was perfect for an overnight stay. Clean and comfortable with a good breakfast in the morning. We would stay again if need something near arena.
