Crowne Plaza Birmingham City Centre by IHG
Spotlessly clean, great location. The price is very reasonable for the comfort and level of attentiveness at the hotel. We ate on site and the food was excellent, we ordered late night room service as well which was prompt and high quality.

Clayton Hotel Birmingham
Room was clean. A little small for 3 people but we made do as 1 night. Could have done with another chair or 2 - there was just one at the desk. Parking is nearby 5-8min walk. Would be good if hotel provided clear directions for walking from the car park to the hotel.
