Aparthotel Adagio Birmingham City Centre
The room had everything I needed. Large comfortable bed, good bathroom facilities, and a very useful kitchen area. It was secure and spacious, with good lighting and temperature control. Its close proximity to the coach station suited my needs, and I had a comfortable two night stay.

The Moseley Arms
Too noisy, whole room vibrated with loud music from below, think warning or ear plugs should have been provided

Malmaison Birmingham
Hotels.com offered an upgrade to a suite which I accepted and was confirmed in writing. Upon check-in was told that Hotels.com frequently do this even if the property is fully booked. Very disappointing. Room was ok. Quiet. Awful smell emanating from the toilet though.

Genting Hotel & Spa at Resorts World Birmingham
From the parking, to reception staff, the room cleanliness and overall facilities, we had an outstanding stay. Thankyou. It was a great quick getaway for not wanting to travel far in the midlands.
