    Really being picky the only things I could criticise is lack of milk in the room for the tea/coffee and the TV in our room being in an odd place. But these really are very minor points

    The hotel is ideally situated both being above Witherspoons and being the centre of Birmingham. Also despite the location the room was very quite.

    Luxury room 110 looks nothing like the photo, no sofa for example. Also the street noise from the pub /club goes on until at least 2am, I'm surprised these rooms aren't on the higher floors. Also to mirror some other comments the plumbing is noisy. Just felt like the place was in need of refurbishment unlike some other wetherspoons hotels.

    Staff member on reception. WiFi. Size of the room.

    Aircon would have been a nice to have. Had a lead under the bath tub when using the shower too, but nothing that would put me off coming back.

    First time staying in a spoons hotel, pleasantly surprised. It gave an older style hotel vibe, but it was well maintained, comfortable, cosy and clean. Went that little bit further on your room hot drink options, with hot chocolate sachets and oat milk. You could take your mugs down for refills at any point too. Lady on reception gave a through overview of everything too.

    Unfortunately woken at 5am whilst they were changing barrels (I assume) I couldn't see. But it didn't stop me from turning over once they had finished.

    Excellent location so close to the station. Very easy for food and drink especially as I was travelling alone until joined by family. Very helpful staff and I enjoyed my stay if only for one night. All facilities you want, including an iron and ironing board, hairdryer etc. And a bonus of free tea or coffee with your cups from the room in the restaurant. Every little helps.

    The bed was a little too hard for a really comfy sleep!

    The location is great - a few minutes from New Street Station. Plus. I like the historical details - telling us about Edward Burne Jones, the Pre Raphaelite artist.

    Perfect for attending concerts at Birmingham Town Hall.

    Plumbing needs a little attention. Slow water drainage from sink and bath tap very difficult to fully turn off.

    We were within a spit of Birmingham Town Hall where we were attending a music concert and a short walk from New Street Railway Station. Plenty of local shops to purchase whatever, comfortable room and downstairs in the well stocked and extremely popular bar a choice of superb food that can be consumed in the comfort of one's own hotel room. Very well laid out hotel room, comfortable bed. A lift to the floors made things very much easier too.
