It was good
Clean. Safe. Central location.
My TV didn’t work.
Location , cleanliness and friendly staff
Nothing
Cama confortável, limpeza perfeita. Funcionários muito simpáticos e disponíveis.
Everything is sorted
Lift are not good. They shakes the make sounds
Very good location
The parking lots fee was still expensive though it was available of some voucher.
Location is however perfect
Breakfast was not quite good for me, same menu all the time, would have liked at least boiled eggs in the menu Also I ordered some food and was quite disappointed by what I was served, the hotel need to invest in a good chef
Normally a good hotel but on this occasion the smell of damp in the room was so bad my bags and clothes needed to be washed before using them again. I’m not sure what happened in the room previously
Quality, clean, great staff,free breakfast
Scrambled eggs were a bit mediocre but that’s a very small point…everything else was great
Free breakfast was great and definitely makes the stay a good value for money! Staff checking us in were friendly and helpful. View from 19th floor was great.
Only thing was the room had a double bed rather than two singles but was still great.
Camera spaziosa
Nulla
The staff were not helpful or friendly on checking inn didn’t explain anything to me
Decent room. You get what you pay for.
The lifts were sometimes not taking me to the right floor.
Friendly staff at check in. Scott was so helpful. Nice clean and well sized room. Breakfast included was a real bonus.
There staff customers service, facilitate me like my home

Super lovely reception staff (especially the night receptionist who was there at 3am) good location, clean and great breakfast selection
The location is central
Excellent location for our visit to the show we were going to. Very near train station. Staff were VERY friendly, pleasant and helpful. Room very quiet. Breakfast was great.
Location was excellent, only a 12 minute walk from New Street Station. Staff were all very friendly. Beds were comfy.
Breakfast was just ok, very busy so certain foods were running out. Coffee wasn't great either.
Η ευγένεια και η εξυπηρέτηση της reception ήταν απίθανα υπέροχη! Πρόθυμοι για να βοηθήσουν σε όλα ! Thank you!
Θα μπορούσαν κάποια πράγματα να είναι λιγκ πιο καθαρά,όπως η μοκέτα αλλά δεν ήταν άσχημα . Λίγο βελτίωση!
Établissement proche du centre, propre, bon petit déjeuner.
Best experience in cheap price
All thing was good
Emplacement
Petit déjeuner. Trop de monde: une véritable usine!!!
El desayuno muy completo, la habitación en general muy bien
Pedimos un piso alto por las vistas y no pudo ser. Por lo demás genial
Very hard pillows led to poor nights sleep and hard bed otherwise all good
Zentrale Lage
beim Frühstück gab es leider keine grosse Auswahl,nur das übliche Englische ,keine Wurst, kein Käse , kein Obst Lichtschalter bei der Leselampe am Bett gab es nicht( war abgebrochen ), Badtüre lies sich nur mit Gewalt schliessen, da das untere Schanier ausgerissen war.
Good location, comfortable bed, clean room & great mirror.
It’s such a tiny thing but the doorstop was in ann awkward place and I kept catching my foot on there as it was near the mirror.
Staff are nice
I hope there is a bath in our room for my son who have special Needs and gym
Very easy to locate the hotel, breakfast was very good.
The breakfast was decent and the location was good
Staff couldn’t help me with tv and room had a bit open space like something was missing
The staff are fantastic.
The hotel needs tlc as it’s looking very tired and rough round the edges.
Plenty of choice for breakfast
Limited seating and tables at busy times
Not very much other than bed was comfortable
Being given a room that was already occupied to start which frighten not only us but the people inside. That was in the 4th floor then was had to go back down and then be given a room that was on the 9th floor and it was not worth the money paid for it. Curtain was not on properly..... floor clearly had not been hovered,, furniture was ripped and walled been filled in and touched up and also smelt funny ...... to me that is disgusting for what we paid especially for such a branded hotel chain
Location and value for money , good breakfast
No fridge inside the room
Sehr gut ausgestattete Zimmer, die Lift Steuerung ist hervorragend, man musste kaum warten. Das Personal beim Frühstück ist rasch und aufmerksam.
Das Frühstück ist nicht sehr abwechslungsreich. Und die Qualität gerade noch passabel.

Very clean, modern hotel with great value for money and a convenient location. Service dogs are very welcome, and they also offer service if needed.
The breakfast plate is dead cold. When I put hot food on it, it goes cold quickly. So you need a plate warmer—limited fruit choice: only apples and oranges.
Good location. Room was clean and comfy. Breakfast was good. Amenities in the room were good. Supplied body/hair wash(Dove) Good TV. Friendly staff.
Breakfast to stay open later. Better pillows.
Perfectly located for our needs. Friendly staff. Good sized room very clean lovely bathroom / shower. Fantastic price for a weekend in the city centre.
I appreciated the breakfast being free but as a coeliac with a lactose intolerance the choices were very poor. I could only have toast, jam and the schar cornflakes. I appreciate it’s an express hotel and so at the budget end of the IHG chain of hotels but I get more choice in a premier inn which I would consider being in the same bracket. The staff member I spoke to apologised but it’s not her fault. Also as a coeliac I would appreciate it if the gluten free items were clearly marked and in a separate area as I have experienced in other hotels because otherwise other people don’t always realise and take the items meaning people such as myself are possibly left without.
Loved the beds, they were really comfortable. The staff was really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also good. Location was amazing, especially for the price. Would book again if needed. :)
The only downside was that their system was down when we came to check in. However, we got complimentary drinks, so it was a win for us.
Great location for all train stations, we used two. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Clean comfy bed in our spacious room with everything we needed for a two night stay. Free breakfast with a good selection.
The dining area has a small amount of tables for the amount of rooms, so breakfast was very busy and people in larger groups were struggling to find seats. Some areas looked a little tired/worn, but it is a busy hotel.
Super Lage, für den Preis vollkommen in Ordnung. Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit.
Das Frühstück ist ausbaufähig.
Horrible bubble pillows. Cold food. No beans no sausage
I personally found the mattress to hard and one pillow not enough but two was too many
The mattress and pillows
Vriendelijk personeel en goed schoon
Geen balkon en geen koelkast
Reception at the reception Excellent service
The breakfast is a little meagre, little to choose from, I expected more!!
Air con and lovely bathroom

Breakfast was lovely everything you could want
ontvangst was hartelijk, prima kamer, goed geslapen, prachtig uitzicht over de stad.
We hebben er heel lang over gedaan om de parkeerplaats te vinden, en de locatie. Het hotel hadden we last minute geboekt omdat een ander verblijf plotseling was afgezegd. We hadden niet goed gekeken naar de locatie. Als Nederlander in Engeland, links rijden, in donker in een stad als Birmingham was dat heel stressvol. Uiteindelijk zijn we wel goed geholpen door de receptie van het hotel. En hebben we het goed kunnen afronden. Het ontbijt was heel erg engels, en er was weinig voor ons, geen beleg enz.
Breakfast was very good, location was not the best for us but public transport is good, housekeeping staff are excellent nothing was too much trouble and the reception staff are very friendly and willing to help out with anything they are asked, I would highly recommend holiday inn express we never stay with anyone else.
There was nothing to dislike, my husband is physically disabled and they even allowed me to take his meals to him in the room.
La habitación es muy grande, el personal fue súper agradable y amable, está muy cerca del centro (a unos 10 minutos a pie). El desayuno es muy correcto y completo. La habitación está habilitada para minusválidos.
El wifi va muy bien en las zonas comunes, pero fatal en las habitaciones. La entrada está medio escondida tras un muro. Los desagües del lavabo huelen a veces.
Friendly welcome and we were offered a drink on the house which really made it feel special.
Breakfast could be improved, long waits and the food wasn't amazing.
The room was very pleasant. I slept well, very comfortable. Also thebsize was great, feeling cool and fresh.
It would be nice to provide with bottled water in the rooms or a common fountain in each floor outside by the lifts. The protein options in the breakfast were minimal. Too high in carbohydrates to fill the tummy.
Nice rooms. Fair price
Location next to main road but it's in city center so expect that
Location. Walkable distance to the city centre and other major attractions
Walls are not sound proof. You can hear the loud noises from next door room and people talking in the corridor . So i couldnt sleep very well
Breakfast. Quiet room. Cool
Other guests who pile their table up with centre plates of food and waste it....
Room was excellent. Great location. Great price and great ease of parking and get discount as well. Did not try the breakfast
Air con was slightly noisy
Top
We stayed at this hotel before and no issues. Friendly staff
I have put not for baby cot but during checking in, she didn’t noticed that. I have ask for baby cot and said some one will bring it. But no one brought any cot . We have to asked again in the night time. Also no tissue paper in the toilet. Room was very noisy and dusty
Clean facilities Good ambience
No youtube, Netflix, except free to air Tv
The breakfast was great and the location. The beds were very comfortable. It's a 3 minute walk to Birmingham children's hospital and offers a discount on parking.
The room was very dusty. Carpets need a good clean. Room cleaning needs attention.

Facilities and breakfast
Family parent put away from their children this can be worrying specila jojnf flats would be more suitable for large family than separate rooms.This not great for us away from our kids.
Can have variety. Having same menu was bit tough on who stay for more than two says
Nothing
Clean and accessible room
The double bed was so hard and the sofa bed was tiny and noisy. Not a comfortable night's sleep.
Good location for where we needed to be, staff very friendly
Mattress in room very hard which made it very difficult to get a good nights sleep, hash browns and sausages at breakfast not the best as very dry
Amazing comfortable
Das Zimmer war sauber und groß genug Parkhaus direkt nebenan mit 55% Rabatt auf den Normalpreis Personal ist freundlich
Frühstück war nicht genießbar
The hospitality! The breakfast!! The rooms!! The customer service was top notch! I would stay here again and again!!
Nothing!
Very functional hotel and exceeded expectations based on price paid (£49). Breakfast was fine and amazed it was included based on price. Very centrally based but be careful you don’t go to the other holiday inn express which is a common problem based on receptionist feedback when I made this mistake.
No real complaints and as I just needed a bed for the night. Don’t set high expectations around the coffee for breakfast
Good buffet brekkie amd reception staff cheerful and helpful
TV didn't work .Hallway fecor is need of attention ,Plaster from a repaired ceiling in bathroom still on rear of door ,noisy air con although it was switched off
Clean. Friendly staff who were very helpful
Good value for money Very pleasant and accommodating staff Good location
Nothing specifically
Loved the breakfast and the staff were extra friendly ❤️
The location and staff
Too much noise and got woken up middle of night by noise - flushing toilet of the next room
Facility and location is good.
The staff appeared to require more training, particularly in hospitality and guest engagement. Their approach felt highly transactional, more suited to a back-office or administrative role rather than a customer-facing hospitality environment. They came across as front desk executives focused solely on processing transactions, rather than hospitality professionals dedicated to delivering a welcoming guest experience. Additionally, there were several issues with the room itself. Although the booking specified a king-size bed, the room was equipped with a queen-size bed instead. The sofa appeared worn out and in poor condition, as though it had outlived its useful life. The bed placement was also uncomfortable, being positioned directly beneath the air conditioning unit. Lowering the temperature made the airflow unbearable, while increasing it left the room uncomfortably warm. Overall, the stay did not meet my expectations and was far from a pleasant experience.
Great location.
Ubicación muy buena en el centro de la ciudad pero sin estar en la zona de bares masificada. Desayuno incluido para todos
La cama no es cómoda ni las almohadas. Colchón muy blando y almohada muy baja
Very well
Restaurant not big enough for number of guests resulting in queues and delays.

The bathroom ceiling was leaking so it was a puddle on the floor. My child wet their pyjamas
Il quartiere
La moquette
Staff were great except for the first and second night, we were disturbed by banging from the floor above us, but they checked out and we were okay with the rest of the stay. Breakfast was great as well. Thank you.
Some kids were banging from the floor above us, we hope there is some changes like some rules. Some children were banging , forgetting that they were in the hotel. As some guests and children need a good sleep when they are staying in the hotel, the hotel should have a rule where after 10 pm, there shouldn’t be any distractions as it distracts other guests and children.
Central. Clean. Great staff. Nice breakfast
