Breakfast Review: I…read morehad a breakfast meeting this morning and couldn't believe my luck when my colleague suggested Hotel du Vin - a venue that I hadn't considered for breakfast before? Breakfast was great, service was excellent and very prompt. Coffee was good too. At £16.95, its the most expensive I have eaten in Birmingham - but this does come with access to the pastries and cereals too - so its still expensive though, compared to others locally. Breakfast consists of eggs, (I had 2 perfectly poached ones), 2 bacon, a flat mushroom, half a tomato, black pudding, (not great - a bit crumbly) and a tiny sausage. Its a shame about the sausage - it should have been bigger or another should have been added to the breakfast. Would I go back? Possibly. There is some great competition in Birmingham

If you paying for a bloc, that's exactly what you get here. The rooms are extra small, we were…read morefortunate to get one with a window, and comfortable for what it is. The bathroom can be a challenge. I loved how they let you control everything, from key to lights on you phone. It's a fast stay hotel but considering the neighbourhood it might be suitable for other type of target people.

If you are looking for scenic views then this might not be your cup of tea. This isn't any fault of the hotel as it is in a city but they do try and get as much natural light in as possible. Now to the cleanliness which I cannot fault them on either as every day my room was cleaned top to bottom. They provided me with fresh towels every day which no other hotel I've been to has done. I will definitely be using this place in the next year as I usually go to Birmingham for events at the NEC.

Worst hotel experience so far in international travel. We traveled to UK with another couple and…read moreprebook all our accommodations. Unfortunately, railroad strike, that affected trains to Birmingham, is called for May 12 which we have reservation in the hotel. Once we have determine the strike and no train will go from Edinburgh to Birmingham, we have tried to communicate with the IHG as well as the hotel. Chat with IHG end with phone number of 441212893636 which fail to get through in multiple calls. Chatbot of Staybridge is extremely dumb and cannot answer any questions. Email to gsa@birmingham.staybridge.com given in confirmation email receives no response. They basically provides no customer service at all. We finally get help from our front desk at Hilton and they are nice enough to find the proper phone number and get connected with Skybridge Birmingham. Staybridge told us that our reservation is not cancelable with refund no matter what happens. This is not a norm in the hotel business when transportation to the hotel is totally not available. Even though we did not stay in the hotel, but the experience of their horrible customer service as well as their policy on strike is very traveller unfriendly in addition to monetary loss. We would strongly recommend to avoid this hotel in all cost for travelers.

Nice art work on the walls and all the amenities you would expect at a hotel, WiFi, ironing board, kettle, mugs, tea coffee etc etc. The staff on reception were helpful and got me checked in quickly. I was there for a days conference so we also used a meeting room. The coffee machine played music as your coffee was made, a nice touch. There was a little faff getting the laptop connected to the screen but once connected all was good. Nice break out area. The bar staff were quick and efficient with plenty of staff working not just behind the bar but on the floor as they are still operating table service. I might have gone 5 stars except for my experience with breakfast the following morning. As part of our package we were able to use our meeting space for breakfast. I was under time pressure and was reassured breakfast would be with us shortly, I heard this for an hour and as I left they arrived with breakfast Other than that I liked the hotel, it's location is great and the staff were good. I will definitely use again.

Excellent hotel right by two malls. There's also a Starbucks in the lobby. Lobby area is somewhat…read moresmall though, although there are some seats. There's also stairs that lead up to the bar/restaurant. Room service is also available but I don't remember the hours. The rooms are spacious and very nice.

An indoor parking garage as well. I would definitely stay here again.

When we complained that we were starving, the manager disappeared and refused to speak to us for over 20 minutes until they magically produced the food, which wasn't even correct, and barely apologized. WORST SERVICE EVER and absolutely zero customer service. They did not care at all.

My room was some kind of 'pod' thing, with a really comfy 3/4 size bed, some fancy modern art on the walls, a plasma screen tv and a compact but clean and modern bathroom. Really enjoyed my stay here even though it was for business - the food was good and everything was reasonably priced. There's a convenience store less than 2 minutes' walk away for those who get the munchies late at night.

I stayed at the Norwood for a week while moving my daughter from New York to University. Right from…read morethe moment I made the reservation the hospitality at the Norwood was evident. The rooms were clean, the breakfast and service was excellent and the location and garden were perfect. Our hosts, Mark, Julie and Eloise never tired of answering our many questions. They provided a stress free environment for what could have been a very stressful week. They were very helpful and we considered the Norwood home base while we settled her in. We always looked forward to ending our day with great conversation at their in house bar while watching a game on their TV. Finding the Norwood made all the difference in our stay.

In a word: Outstanding! From the moment I arrived the personal, family friendly service from Mark,…read moreJulie, Eloise and the staff set the standard for others to emulate. I spent three weeks at the Norwood and thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the B&B. Breakfast each morning was great and my room was quite nice and spacious as well. Being I was working in the City Centre my commutee was about 25 minutes each way, so that would be the only caution. Northfield is a bit of a drive rom the City Center, but it's very close to Cadbury World, a must see!

Birmingham's Ibis can be an ideal place to stay on your visit to Birmingham…read more Within easy reach of all the train stations, close to the shopping district and markets, within a hands reach of China town and walking distance to Hurst St. I recently stayed here, and shared a room with friends. We divided the price between us and for about £15 each for 3, it's not bad. Rather than getting taxi's home after a heavy night of clubbing, we just crashed in here (but yes, I guess it could get a little awkward if one of your mates gets lucky..). The only downside was it became apparent that we were not going to get much sleep that night, being late on a Saturday going into Sunday morning, you still have the noise coming in from the clubs outside, and other visitors making a rowdy noise in the hallway. So don't be alarmed if it is noisy. Overall, the rooms are clean and practical, reasonably priced for what you get.

I live near the Village Hotel and now and then use the spa & fitness facilities. I have to say that…read morethis hotel has a nice atmosphere. Especially the big pool which you can use as a member is very nice and clean. The fitness facilities can be quite full - but as everywhere it depends on the time you go. The spinning courses are my personal tip... Jump on a bike and enjoy a cool workout in a dark music filled disco room. Spa treatments can be booked for an extra fee and are wonderful. The staff in all departments is very friendly. My only minus point is the high member fee of ca. £45 per month. Other than that a great place to go and a guaranteed sporty time!

The reception area looked great and there were refreshing welcome drinks we could help ourselves to while we waited, I had parked in their car park and was given a token so that there would be no charge for the use of that facility. The staff were very polite and friendly so I had high hopes for the rest of the day. However when we went downstairs to the heath suite, I was left somewhat disappointed. The changing room area was quite small with only a few lockers, as there were other guests using the spa we didn't even get a locker each to ourselves, so 5 of us just had to squeeze our things into 3 lockers! I had ironed my dress for the evening event beforehand however that got creased as there were so many bags in the locker that it was not able to hang properly. It stated on the wall as you walked in that there was a sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi and pool, however there was no sauna. The facilities that were there were great, but I had been hoping to paint my nails and dry them off in the sauna, so I was disappointed. The sun loungers had all been taken up by other guests so we had to leave our towels on the chairs by the tables. There was quite a mess of coffee cups, tissues and things on the table when we arrived, and it was still there when we left 4 hours later. I had booked a pedicure as my treatment, my friends had booked massages and facials. The pedicure was good, but normally they file the dead skin off your feet as well as doing your nails and you get a little bit of a foot massage which they didn't do here. From what my friends told me, the massage was good but it depended on which therapist you had, as each did slightly different things. The lady who had the facial was happy with that as they use decleor products. There are only 2 showers and 2 closed changing rooms, so it was quite a long wait before I could get ready. The showers were also filthy! There were empty bottles, hair and scum on the floor of both showers and we had noticed that when we arrived, but assumed it would be cleaned by the time we showered...it wasn't! All in all I would say it was a disappointment for all of us, as we had expected far better!
