The Grand Hotel Birmingham
Fantastic Hotel. Great location, Lovely room. A great Bar, but didn’t stay in there long as it was just way too expensive. Lovely staff. Such a shame about the guest prices, I can’t comment on the Breakfast, again it was extortionately priced, but no issue as there are amazing local dining options ...

Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre by IHG
Big spacious clean room. The foyer was decorated beautifully for Christmas and had a warm and cozy feeling. The bar staff were very warm and friendly. I was a woman travelling on my own, meeting girlfriends for a night out, and I felt very safe within the hotel.
