10/10

If you are looking for a hotel with charm and an old world feel, this is it. While it's not one of those chain hotels, it's got a comfy, cozy feeling with lots of history (Tolkien stayed here). The rooms are very comfortable with lots of charm & character. I can't say enough about how nice & welcoming the staff is either. Top notch. Order the morning breakfast, well worth the cost. Very close to Uni of Birmingham & about 2 miles from Bull Ring, downtown area. Right on transit routes, so no need for a car. Very close by a grocery store. Honestly, couldn't be happier with my choice. If you are looking for a chain hotel, this isn't it, but if you are looking for something different, this is the place for you. 6 out of 5 stars. AMAZING

Disappointed to learn there is no restaurant available at the weekend, and the breakfast service was very poor. The parking was an expensive addition for those not booking direct with the hotel.

It's an older property but it checks out. Had some issues with the toilet and in order for the power to stay on in the room you have to leave key card inserted in slot near door, but otherwise a generally pleasant stay. Great restaurant/bar, good food, great staff.
1-night trip

The property is an old beautiful building and full of charakter. Its got hystory, the famous author J R Tolken (Lord of the Rings) Stayed there. Very friendly and helpful staff and a very comfortable stay.

6/10

I’m normally a fan of Best Western hotels, they’re usually in some old, interesting and quirky buildings. Although the frontage of this hotel is quite appealing the main accommodation is somewhat soulless and rundown 60’s vibe. However the main concern was the cleanliness of the room, especially the bathroom. It looked as though it hadn’t had anything more than a cursory wipe over in years. The toilet was constantly running, the plastic bath panel was damaged and there was mould around the edges of the floor. The whole place needs a good clean and uplift. Which is a shame as it’s in a fairly convenient location close to Edgbaston and a short tram ride into town. The staff were helpful and the breakfast enjoyable.

They really need to up their customer experience by providing aome basics, like bottled water, instead of assuming that everyone would take water from the tap.

The iron was not good at all and was a bit cold, otherwise everything else was good. I like the old style of the hotel. There was no pastries at breakfast.
