Hotel Birmingham Metrpole,Birmingham

Advantages: Close to NEC
Disadvantages: Very poor value for money. Inefficient service.

I booked in advance through conference organisers. This was a mistake. Suggest you make own arrangement with hotel direct. I paid £135 for a small single bedded room with an old TV. I reckon I could have got this same room well under £100 if I had booked myself direct. Being the closest hotel to the NEC is probably why it is one of the most expensive. I compared my facilities with others in different hotels. They all had better value for money. Hotel ...
...newspaper. I was charged for it but it never arrived. Then I made use of the rapid checkout service which promised a receipt would be sent on to me. This did not occur so I had to telephone the hotel for this. In summary a very overpriced hotel for facilities offerred and service provided. ...

Review of Hilton Birmingham Metropole, Birmingham

A room with a view

Advantages: Brilliant view
Disadvantages: Over Priced

...to be pampered. The Hyatt is located on Broad Street in Birmingham and is 24 stories high giving a fabulous view over the city, our room was located on the 18th floor (high up at our request) and the view was phenomenal. The cost for 2 nights bed and breakfast set us back just under £400 so we had high expectations. On our arrival (and much to my annoyance), the valet parking service was not available, we had to leave our cases with the conceierge ...
...from the hotel (which costs £12 per 24 hours, and if I'm honest doesn't look too safe, although no harm came to the car during our stay). After the long walk back from the car park we collected our baggage and struggled to get it through the doors, as the concierege just stood there watching, now I know it's my fault for over-packing, but a girl gotta have choices of outfit! , previously when I have stayed in a small bed and breakfast for £30 a night ...

Review of Hyatt Regency, Birmingham

Meetings at the Mal - not what I expected

Advantages: Comfortable stay in a large, clean room
Disadvantages: Meetings were not thought out properly

I stayed in Malmaison for a four day training course last week and I wasn’t going to write a review because it is so similar to the one I wrote on Malmaison London, I would have just repeated myself. However, there were quite a few little things that could have been improved with the meeting facilities and I thought I had to air my views! The Room Ok, so briefly I will write about the room. As we booked through work I assume we only had a ...
...the one we had in London. The bed was huge and there was a lot of walk round space in the bedroom. There was a large desk with broadband internet access – either from a cable or wireless, a large TV, CD player and a really big wardrobe. It was really comfortable and was air conditioned. The only thing was that the window was quite small and overlooked the Mailbox, but this was a minor fault. The Bathroom The bathroom had everything I would ...

Review of Malmaison, Birmingham

Good budget hotel

Advantages: modern
Disadvantages: lack of restauarant at weekend

...have recently been refurbished, standard holiday inn express feel and design and very clean which for me is the most important thing. The bathroom was clean with a shower and shampoo and liquid soap. Tea and coffee facilities as is usual and a decent sized television with a good reception. One of the things that I like about the Holiday Inn express brand is that a free breakfast is standard meaning you get one even when you pay on points which is ...
...yoghurt, tea, coffee, orange juice etc. The hotels location really is only convenient if you have a car, please don't be fooled by the "Birmingham" title, as this hotel isn't in the city centre. I'd recommend this hotel, although only if you can get a good value rate (under £50.00, especially on a weekend when the hotel appears to run on limited service with no restaurant etc). I did notice in the reception area though that there is a microwave that ...

Review of Holiday Inn Express Birmingham-Oldbury M5 Jct.2, Birmingham

A FAIR OLD TIME AT THE FAIRLAWNS

Advantages: Delicious food, friendly staff & a overall nice enviroment to be in
Disadvantages: Some spa treatments could be improved

INTRODUCTION Due to the dark and dingy weather and lack of time my boyfriend and me decided to have a night at a spa to try and cheer us up. We always seem to decide to go away at the last minute so leave ourselves very little to choice in where to go as most places are booked up. However we have since come across a good booking website that seems to be able to get us availability last minute where ever we want. On this occasion we didn’t want to ...
...West Midlands for a change. The one that seemed the nicest was The Fairlawn’s Hotel and Spa which has sounded nice because it is privately owned, been around since 1984 and is set in 9 acres of pretty grounds perfect! I emailed for availability on the Wednesday night for Saturday night as you usual arrive have your spa treatments on that day and leave the following day but as they didn’t have any availability they said we could arrive Friday evening ...
