The breakfast was lovely and the areas special with the views. The staff were all smiley friendly and helpful. The rooms were good spec but the carpets had lots of marks and spills on it. The room was incredibly hot and the air conditioning didn’t seem to be working. There were some fans in the room which helped a little but not much through the night. No one mentioned that there was a problem. Very good site in the centre of Birmingham and worked for us.

Despite being advertised, property has no aircon. Unfortunately travelled on one of the hottest days, and all they could provide was a tower fan to recirculate the warm air around the room. Not the best experience and staff seemed to have heard the same complaint over and over.

I liked the location and ease of access from downtown. The entire experience has been soured by the lack of notification of a pre-existing problem at the hotel in regards the non working AC. The fact that we aren't refunded following default by the hotel to provide advertised facilities is criminal and I will let everyone I meet know not to stay at the establishment.

Not up-front about a room with a broken TV

The room was nice and clean and the hotel was furnished in a modern way. We checked in as early as possible at 3pm but we were given a room they knew had a broken TV. When I complained they said no one was able to help fix it and the hotel was full so no room change was possible. They gave a slight discount but only because I complained and asked for it. A working TV is important in a hotel room and so the visit was spoiled because of this. I was disappointed that they were not up front about the TV and put us in a room with a fault, and I found it hard to believe that no room change was possible in such a large hotel. We also chose this hotel on the hotels.com app because it said it had parking, and the assumption with that is that it means free parking. It cost over £20 even with a pre-booked discount and is next to the hotel but not on site.

Needs some improvement

Location was great for my needs but room was tired, with lots of carpet stains, curtain failling down at one end and big stain on window. TV also wouldn't turn on and reception didn't answer call when I tried to report on check-in - I was told it may have been an issue with phones on check-out. Breakfast was ok but not great. Staff were friendly but I wouldn't rush back.

Good and bad

The room was beautiful but there was a few issues, the bed was really hard and we hardly slept. The room was absolutely boiling and the fan we had was just blowing out hot air, also the in the shower couldn’t stay in long as the water was starting to overflow onto the floor but apart from that we did have lovely time.
