I stayed for 3 nights and found the flexibility of self-catering in the appartment a bonus. Excellent value for the spacious appartment - far more room than in a hotel. Well equiped kitchen area with more than enough utensils etc to produce a basic meal, although I only ate breakfast in the appartment. The rooms were clean and well appointed;... More

I stayed with my 2 sisters in a one bedroom apartment for 2 nights in May 2012. The apartment was clean and tidy and spacious. It was so much more flexible than staying in a hotel, and having the balcony to smoke on was a great bonus (instead of getting a lift down many floors to stand outside a hotel... More

Dear Guest Thank you for taking the time to post your review which I must say is totally unfounded. Firstly, can I confirm that both the sofa bed and shower work absolutely fine, and were subject to misuse during your stay, and should you have informed us you were unsure how to operate either, we would have been more than...

I've been staying here for weeks in a row during past year and can only say good things about it. Location is great, rooms are big, kitchen is nicely equipped (though dishwasher is missing) and internet is free, though somewhat restricted. Of course if you're not lucky and get the room that has windows to the Arc centre, your stay... More

I stayed here whilst visiting both Cadburys World and the Gadget Show Live with my daughter aged 20 and son aged 11and found it both convinient for rail and car travel. The location near the markets, Bull Ring and train station could not be improved on. This alongside the excellent reastaurants nearby makes it a perfect choice for a family... More

I stayed here for a month on business and found the staff excellent, and the rooms to be clean, modern and comfortable. The big downside to staying here is that at the weekends the hotel fills up with party animals. The hotel allow them to play loud music and srceam and shout and run up and down the hotel corridors.... More
