Hotels near Birmingham Airport - BHX, Birmingham

more specifically Xclusive property on 34 White croft Road, Sheldon - It was a pleasant enough suburban area with plenty of restaurants. The property was only fair - clean enough but several things not working, poor lighting in Kitchen and no instructions for tv or oven. A good location for our reason - near the NEC, and adequate. Could use a tidy up outside full of weeks and bramble. We were grateful for off street parking. As it was for business reasons it was okay.

As a Hotel Manager myself. There should be no excuse for shortage of Stock. The Menu only had 5 Meals available as they did not have the items in From Ralking to the Morning Staff they were upset that the overnight staff did not do their job. This is all stuff Good management should be able to spot and resolve.The Staff looked Miserable and were not the best for politeness.

Solihull is a well-to-do town close to Birmingham, its airport and Conference Centre. Excellent shopping, it even has a John Lewis in the main shopping Centre, Torchwood! Plenty of restaurants and pubs and all within walking distance of the Hotel.

Marston Green Hotel is 3* hotel that met my expectations. I stayed only one night, as next day I had to attend event and after that travelling back to home. The location of the hotel is nearby Birmingham International Station and it was within 5-10 mins by taxi. Overall I'm satisfied and happy with my accommodation for one night. Only I'm not sure if someone would like to book room for longer duration of stay. I find the place reasonable and excellent for short stay, but not any more. Also, I observed that the cleanness of the room wasn't the best expected. I noticed in the shower floor some dirt and dark spots same as the fossettes. They could be cleaned much better. Their free WiFi frankly speaking was better than in London, which pleasantly surprised me and I was able overnight to complete my task for next day event, which was appreciated. Unfortunately I'm not able to provide photos from inside as I deleted the two of them from the shower. I don't have any other photos from the surroundings as I went only for take away food in the evening to buy my dinner from the nearby restaurant and the weather this evening wasn't the best (light drizzle and damp/humidity from the season).

The charming village was a great place to stay for the course I was on. The digs were within a few hundred yards of the station to Birmingham, which was only 3 stops away and has a free car park. I would not have known, however, when I booked, that it was so readily accessible by train from the centre Birmingham. I think they should advertise that feature. I was busy on a course, and it was bitterly cold out, so I did not visit any tourist sites as I had no free time until the morning I left, when I took a quick and easy trip to the town centre by train to see the famous Museum of Art.......which was closed for a refurb! (Jan 2022) A good excuse to visit again!

Once inside it was clean and comfortable, the area was not great and difficult to find after dark as a door between shops, whose shutters were down. First impressions when opening the door from the street weren’t great but up the first staircase to another door that opened to a much nicer interior.
