Great alternative to staying in City Centre whilst having really good public transport links to get there if need be. Late night party at the venue but our room was far enough away for it not to be too much of a problem. Unfortunately the council had not been able to resolve their dispute with refuse workers so lots of rubbish on local streets making it feel less pleasant than it should.
Never knew this place existed. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice it was inside, staff very friendly. Good size car park and lots of space outside the venue.
I stayed 1 night on the 28/2/2026, while attending a course at the Doug Ellis Centre. Booking was simplicity itself. The welcome was great from the bar staff. The room was immaculate, with tea/coffee facilities provided, bathroom was clean and well maintained. I had an evening meal and breakfast, both very nice indeed. Overall this is the place to stay for getting into Birmingham easily, and having a great stay. I will be returning on future dates.
Stayed here as an away supporter for the football. The staff were really friendly. The clients during the day and night were friendly, not sure about the day of the match. Food was great. Rooms weee basic but really clean. Motorway is overhead but you cant hear it in the room, really good windows. 5 min walk to Villa Park. 10 minute Uber ride to the Bullring Birmingham. Good value for money.
I love this place, the rooms are basic but more than made up with the quality of staff and service. Been back 4 times, will deffo be back again.
Rooms were very clean and very welcoming. I do not have fancy tastes so if you are expecting five star hotel service and fixtures, this isn't it. Are they friendly and super helpful? Absolutely. Is the beer in the pub cold? Yup. Everything was clean and tidy. Didn't have an overabundance of ameni9but had more than we needed to tuck in and have a good night sleep and a hot shower in the morning. Also super easy to get to by car and there is ample parking. I would definitely stay here again. We also had breakfast in the morning. It was delightful. We sat in the pub and played cards for a couple of hours and had a couple of drinks. Thanks for the excellent stay.
Really friendly staff both bar staff and housekeeping, so welcoming and lovely. The other long term guests staying for work were also nice so great atmosphere Only stayed one night for a work thing in the centre and was only hotel left available with parking so went for it even though very basic but really clean and great brekkie no complaints and would stay again
We came up for the football. Great people, comfortable beds, good breakfast, and all in all, we would definitely stay again. If the game is on a Friday or Saturday, the place is absolutely rocking. Parking isn't bad and only a fiver on match days if you're staying as a guest. Otherwise, it's £8 but get there as early as you are able to.
Set an 8-minute walk from Villa Park, home of Aston Villa Football Club, this unpretentious hotel is 2 miles from the M6 motorway, and 3 miles from the Bullring & Grand Central shopping centre.
