I phoned called to be asked if I can check in 30 mins early and they let me which was super useful as had a quick turn around to get out again
When we came back we weekend allows to sit at the bar seats as they were shut… but could Order drinks from reception so the staff moved the bar stool chairs from the bar are 3 meters to reception. Seemed a little weird as we were allows a drink and to stay in the reception.
De ligging van het hotel
Kleine kamer, niet te proper en gedateerd. De parking vlakbij is altijd vol.
Easy check in, close to the Utilita arena
Just needs a little maintenance, shower door handle was loose, showers door did not close properly. Couple of bathroom tiles were loose, tv remote wasn’t great.
Clean and good location
24 bar
Fantastic location and great hosts made us feel very welcome
Nothing it was great, we will come again
Location is good, staff are friendly, rooms well Equipped
Walls are thin!
The staff were really nice and helpful. That was definitely the highlight of the stay. The bed was comfy.
The photos are not showing the real state of the room. It is very dated and there were stains on the sofa. The floor was very dirty, my daughter was crawling on the floor and her clothes and hands ended up being black. Not great. We told them up front we have a baby, however they have given us a room on the floor where there was several rooms partying, yelling, slamming the doors,… Nothing wrong with partying in general, just don’t put people with babies and children on the same floor. We didn’t sleep well. The shower only had a little shower gel dispenser, no shampoo.
Very clean and spacious apartment.
Specious and a telly in all big rooms
Nothing
Great location, has everything you need
The car park was full when I arrived but there is a ncp just round the corner
Great location. Well stocked kitchen, dishwasher tablet and tea towel, spare coffee pods, milk for drinks. Big fluffy towels and a full length mirror. Great having a 24hr bar and pizza. Reception staff and security helpful and friendly. Considering how busy it was the room was very quiet. Apartment was simple but suited for our needs. Coop round the corner.
Very clean and modern
Nothing
The facilities and the really good location. Also, a special mention to the person who takes care of breakfast—amazing energy! Don’t change anything!
Staff really friendly and great location for the price we paid!
Bathroom could have been a bit more up to date as flush on toilet was a bit temperamental.
Perfect location for the arena, lovely rooms with very comfortable beds
Shower leaked a lot, but we mentioned it to staff when we checked out and they said they’d get it sorted
Great location, friendly staff and spotless apartment
The staff were super friendly and a very quiet night.
Very close to so many things including Sealife, High Street and the Utilita Arena. The staff are so supportive and helpful, and have security in the later hours which makes it feel a lot safer. The beds are actually so comfy as well which is always a plus.
Genuinely nothing. I stay here everytime I have a concert in the arena and I love it every-time.
Luxury apartment, very clean and cosy. We had an amazing time here
Nothing. Everything was amazing and exceeding
Good location. Simple and comfortable
The breakfast was quite poor
Everyone was lovely. The room was so nice, clean, tidy, comfortable beds
Nothing
I would stay here again its new chic. Rooms are cozy and spacious
Nothing
Everything was fine in terms of cleanliness and facilities.
Twice I was walked in on my maintenance men who claimed they needed to fix something in the room and didn’t know it was occupied. TWICE in an overnight stay. The first was just an hour after I checked in and then again in the morning a different maintenance man walked in on me while I was naked. They didn’t even knock beforehand to double check, just opened the room and walked straight in. Both said they weren’t aware it was occupied. This is extremely concerning and made me feel very unsafe, imagine if I had been travelling solo. Spoke to the team at reception and were told they’d look into it. Should not have happened in the first place, not the first time but especially not the second time.

The room apartment was as advertised. The bed linen needs to be clean - no nasty stains from previous guests
Clean bed linen
Le personnel ultra accueillant et petit déjeuner top
It was alright
Facilities are too old and it needs a revamp
Central to where we wanted to be. Welcoming and helpful staff.
1st room was very smelly, a strong smell of previous occupants dinner. Sheets to both beds were covered in hairs! Yukkkk! Floors were sticky and paintwork could definitely of done with a clean. We asked to be moved to another room. Reception staff were happy to arrange this. New room was somewhat cleaner, but I’m glad I was only there for one night.
Very clean and spacious with all the amenities available
Nothing
We loved everything- even before we arrived and I called to ask about parking, the staff were friendly and helpful. On check in they were smiley and gave us free upgrade. The apartment was perfect - immaculate and great facilities. We slept so well! Opted for breakfast and didn't regret it - great coffee and wide selection of items. Great area to explore - lots of bars/ cafes close by but felt safe and quiet. Thanks especially to Celia 😊
Nothing - it was exceptional
Large rooms
Property is in the city centre.
Lifts didn’t work numerous times, which means we were charged for an Uber we didn’t actually take as we couldn’t get downstairs for ages as loft wouldn’t allow us to go down to 0. Places like bathroom need an extra look at when being cleaned and ensuring choking hazards for babies/toddlers are removed
I had a great stay at StayCity Aparthotels in Birmingham! I previously stayed in the one in Greenwich London and both times it has exceeded my expectations, the staff were lovely and very accommodating. I will definitely be staying here again
Modern hotel, facilities were great with kettle and toaster really useful. Beds really comfy and excellent central location. Staff super helpful! Gym great added bonus although didn’t use it this time.
Could hear every door on floor closing in the night. Soft close would make the facilities perfect!
Quiet comfortable well laid out rooms Good location Super friendly reception staff Great value
Nothing . Really enjoyed the stay. Exceeded my expectations
Excellent value for money! The hotel room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated with lots of amenities such as a dishwasher and coffee machine! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and the reception had a reasonably priced bar and shop for essentials. I believe there was even a gym but we didn’t get chance to see it.
Nothing much! It wasn’t walkable to the bullring/new street but taxis only cost £5-£10 so not a major issue.
I like the rooms, good location. Very close to train station. Laundry room avail
Expensive to use the washer and dryer. I pay more to book this hotel compared to other good options cause there’s a laundry room, don’t feel like I should have to pay £10 to wash and dry self service
I loved everything about the property, and the front desk team was exceptional. I would particularly like to commend Celia, Yasmine, Dheminy, Magda, and Michelle for providing outstanding customer service and attentively catering to my every need. Their warm and welcoming demeanour created a genuinely inviting atmosphere that will undoubtedly draw me back whenever I visit Birmingham. While the accommodations and facilities were superb, it is truly the staff who elevate the experience—management at Staycity Aparthotels should be proud to have such a dedicated team. The suite was immaculate, well-maintained, and thoughtfully stocked with additional linens. I could not fault a single detail. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Nothing.
Everything
I wanted prices for long term stay.they didnt come back to me
The location was good. It was very close to where we needed to be.
The place was presentable and clean it’s was worth it the and staff members did a great job
I know it policies but the place need to be clean every day even if you stay there for few days but paying for them to do cleaning I found it a be to much
La posizione strategica
Camere molto umide e un po' piccole
It was clean
We had an upgrade and that made such a difference
The extractor fan was broken
Big, comfy bed, good location between the city centre and the jewellery quarter. Very helpful and friendly staff. Kitchen had everything we needed.
Slightly musty smell in the room and bathroom was a bit worn. Only 2-3 of many things in kitchen (e.g. mugs, spoons)
Really good and in a good area, good parking
Heating wasn’t working, it was quite cold.
The ac was not working , I had paid for the parking in advance was not informed at the reception that the parking was a public parking and it would not be available if the car park was full
That we had two toilets & showers Made easy for kids
I wasn’t pleased with the breakfast It could do with improving
I always book Staycity anytime I'm in Birmingham.... Always neat with all the needed facilities available The staffs are readily available and helpful 😀 ✨️ 👍 👌🏻 😊 Value for money
Watching ordinary YouTube was complicated with all the codes and stuff needed to watch television 😏😏😏😏seem ridiculous 🙄 😑 😒 coming to relax in hotel should be more relaxing and not tasking 🙄🙄🙄😒😒
I unloaded my luggage, from the road, and was directed to the car park. Unfortunately, I wasn't given the voucher code and paid FULL for the car park. I was only told about the voucher after I had checked in.
I loved how convenient it was and clean and just eveything you need , just there . I stayed in another place the day before paid double the amount and in comparison this one I had much better sleep and didn’t feel restless it was very cosy and staff were very nice and welcoming which helps
Didn’t dislike anything
Room was spacious clean and great for a family stay
the staff were rude, the breakfast was awful, cold and not much selection and very small seating area which made it difficult to have breakfast.
De fijne douche 🚿!!
Each aparthotel room was nicely decorated and fitted out with all necessary appliances. The bar downstairs was cosy yet spacious. Staff were welcoming and accommodating - we were given an extra fan for our room. The local recommendations on request were a nice touch!
One lift was broken during our stay.
Convenient location
Mattress wasn’t comfy
Cute place
We was above the main entrance door and we could here it opening and shutting late at night, plus so noisy
Clean, great check in service at 3am
Clean location was perfect central
Nothing
Location and the staff, was the best part of the experience
I thought the would clean during daytime, but only after we left. During the stay the cleaning service was on us.
It was clean Tidy and comfortable I think I’d love to be able to live there in your place more prominently
Nothing
I like that the amenities provided is just like being at home but with the feel of being on holiday. You have the option to cook have food delivered. The staff members are friendly, cordial and very helpful.
Nothing.
The staff were lovely, I had mentioned on my booking my accessibility requirements and also the fact it was a trip for my friends birthday and not only was out room right next to the lift the staff had a happy birthday chocolate bar and card set up in our room was such a nice surprise
Didnt eat breakfast
Staycity could try to partner with attractions like Sealife, Cadbury world, legoland to give a more budget friendly paxkage.
The staff was really nice and kind and very helpful. Felt like they actually cared rather than trying to take more money
The room had a few issues with it
Off street parking
It wasn’t clean. Fixings came off the wall. The sofa bed was stained and not comfy at all. The access hatch in the bedroom made awful banging noises. A child was above us and just ran back and forth for hours. There was no cover over the fuse box. It came across as cheap but has 4 star so we hoped for a bit better. The toilet was hard to flush. Very bright lights outside the windows at night.
Perfect location, short walk anywhere you wanted to be.
Atención
The location was ideal for getting to the occasion we were attending and the railway station. It was in a quiet street but in the city centre. Our room was quiet - no noise from other rooms, the corridor or outside, so we got a good night’s sleep. The staff were friendly and efficient throughout. The room was clean, tidy and well equipped. The bed was huge and very comfortable. There is a lovely canal walk nearby and easy access to cafes and restaurants.
Unfortunately the shower drain struggled to cope with the power shower and the soap/shampoo container in the shower area hadn’t been refilled. But I still enjoyed it.
I was happy my whole family stayed in one apartment
The smell in the corridor, the parking wasn’t well explained by the staff and we got a ticket for parking on the road. I wasn’t happy with this overall.
Clean, comfortable, open space and was an amazing experience
The apartment was really nice inside. Had complimentary tea and coffee. Everything we needed for our little break away.
The only thing I would maybe say is that it would have been nice to have a bedside table either side of the main bed.
Room was spotless, plenty of space with a family bathroom and a bathroom off the bedroom, fully kitted out kitchen, loads of spare towels and bedding, helpful staff on the front desk. Fantastic value for money.
NA
The location was good, and staff were lovely, especially to my daughter who was celebrating her 5th birthday. Staff were quick to help with issues.
Some facilities could be improved - my mum went to change the toilet roll and the board behind it fell clean off. We also had a broken lamp and a dirty bed sheet.
It’s a very spacious and quite clean accommodation for staying in birmingham. my room came with living space, bathroom, kitchenette two tvs and a bed. I would 100% recommend. Security at night hours and 24 hrs reception, I came back to the place late and asked to extend check out time which was easily applicable at reception. The bed was clean and comfortable.
Only issue is that although my bathroom was clean, the toilet had some issues with the flush.
Posizione centrale e camera famigliare spaziosa. Parcheggio pubblico a fianco dell’albergo
La pulizia era buona ma migliorabile
Facilities such as a kettle, microwave, coffee machine, washing machine (if needed). Location is very close to the city centre.
Bathroom is a bit small and tight.
This was the second time I have stayed at the Staycity Apartments and once again it all worked out. The staff were brilliant on arrival and made a special notice of our children, offered them Ice Cream and had some colouring for them. We used the room for a central location for shopping ahead of the Gladiators experience at the NEC the following morning. I have also re-booked to go again later in the year when we attend a concert at the Utilita Arena.

The location was good
The floors were filthy, the beds were very uncomfortable, both lifts were broken, the breakfast was chaos and very poor choice
Loved our short two night stay at Staycity! The location was quite central and the rooms were clean and comfortable. I will definitely stay here again with hesitation
Nothing
it's very clean and located at city center where we can go China Town and Brimingham Musume so easy. Moreover, the room is very well-lit and parking space is good enough.
the toliet is a bit small, but enough for used. Besides, the head shower is fixed and we can't take it out for shower.
I "Liked" that the request for 2x single beds + 2x sofa beds was met however there was no guarantee of this; the room was booked months in advance and it was entirely "subject to availability" which is weird. Staff members were friendly and the overall presentation for the lobby etc is nice
They claim that Parking is provided as part of the services this stay offers, it does not. It's incredibly predatory and StayCity will claim no ownership of this as the parking space is a third party who will act like you haven't paid the full amount for your stay when you have and try to claim more money from you. After a Google search on the company, a 1 star review makes a lot of sense as many people seem to have this issue and it's clearly not being addressed by StayCity or even fore-warned. The rooms themselves are tiny, with the bathroom as well being incredibly small. I personally found the beds uncomfortable but my roommates for the weekend didn't share that sentiment so I'll put that one on me. It pains me to talk so poorly about this because I believe the staff members there did what they could and it isn't really their fault with the issues we had
I like the bedrooms and the space. My stay was very memorable

Appartamento pulito e fornito di tutto in necessario. Staff gentile e disponibile. Posizione centrale.
Spazio un po piccolo per 4 persone.
The gentleman on reception was delightful 😊. The appartment was super clean and had everything we needed for a very comfortable overnightstay. Thankyou x
It was all fabulous 👌
Firstly the front of house staff were excellent.The beds were amazing. The apartment was super equipped and spacious
The floors were not very clean. The breakfast was awful!! There was only one lady on and she was very busy. The food was not topped up quickly. The omelette looked rubbery and the sausages over cooked. Just very disappointing
Get what you pay for, very basic accommodation.
Bathroom was very basic, and a little run down
Tolles City Hotel. Ein perfekter Startpunkt für uns. Bars, Restaurants und Shops alles fußläufig erreichbar. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, sauber und sehr gut ausgestattet. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.
Very helpful and polite staffs
Friendly staff, comfortable beds, great apartment.
Not enough plugs near to a mirror so no where to do hair in front of a mirror.
The comfort that was given.
The toilet flush didn't work properly.
Location and staff
We liked the friendly staff. We liked the pancake machine.
Coffee machine not working. No jam/marmalade available.
Very welcoming staff. Clean rooms although the plumbing did smell a little. Breakfast was limited but was fine. Very good location next to the Utilita. The room was big. Would stay here again.
The location was very central and accessible. Good staff
It was very basic for the price and quite overpriced. There was an odd smell in the room throughout the weekend
Great little contained area, kitchen and facilities great
The door between the living area and the rest of the room shut then was jammed from one side. The handle had come loose and was not opening the door. This was a safety risk but I don’t think that was taken seriously, just ‘someone can open it from the other side’
Location, friendly staff, apartment very clean and modern
Friendly staff. Fairly quick (same day) response to issues raised with the room. 'Gym' room to enable some cardio training (bike, cross trainer, rower and treadmill) cable machine for weights. Plenty of space in apartment if you aren't needing to use sofa beds in living space.
Significant wear and tear in rooms, tired looking finishings. Kitchen space very small so proper cooking not easy. The 'gym' is a plus point over many other accommodation options, would be better if there was more space and more weight training options.
Excellent location and very helpful staff Facilities were excellent Easy check in and check out
Parking issues
really good location, we arrived early and they said our room wasn’t quite ready which wasn’t a problem, the receptionist then came and found us in the car park and said they could accommodate our early arrival and helped us in with our bags. car park which is adjacent to the hotel they give you a discount code so it’s £17.50 a day to park, really spacious in the apartment with all amenities you need, beds were super comfortable! 15 mins walk into the centre, with lots of shops, restaurants on route.
