On the last day of check out I was locked out of the room before 10am.

Had a problem at check-in as they had no trace of my booking. Arranged stay through booking.com and I had printed confirmation. The problem was identified as an issue with the hotel computer system not receiving the booking from booking.com. For a while it looked like I would not have a room, but the hotel manager (Joy) was determined to resolve the issue and a room was provided.

Reviewed Aug 19, 2026As always, an excellent stay here. A good room, clean bathroom, comfy bed, easy parking and no hassles. Particularly, I'd also like to sing the praises of Joy, one of the staff there. She really is exceptional. I had a minor issue connecting to the Wi-Fi and Joy sorted it in no time. I was really impressed because she was extremely pro-active about everything and always two steps ahead of the problem with a solution and a backup solution! She also helped me arrange a late check-out that I needed and - again - just went above and beyond with it. I checked out at the time I needed to with no issues. These might sound like minor things but I've certainly stayed in hotels where both have given me insurmountable problems before. Here, they were sorted in no time by a really friendly, resourceful and helpful person. Like, I felt like she genuinely cared, which is so rare these days.

Reviewed Aug 12, 2026I have to give the staff a special mention. They're always so cheery and welcoming, as well as being efficient. Honestly, so few hotels actually make you feel like a "guest" but Redwings does. It's a little thing but lovely to get a warm greeting after a long journey. Also, the room I stayed in yesterday seemed to have been redecorated recently. Some of the rooms are older than others but this had a very fancy new shower (which I enjoyed) and an excellent bed.

Needed air con, even just in a few rooms. Ours was past a fire door which trapped heat in the corridor & rooms, so it was pretty close to unbearable. We had 4 fans but there weren’t any plug sockets close enough to the beds, so they didn’t help. I did ask if there were any extension leads but unfortunately, there weren’t. I ended up having to sleep on a wet towel to try to cool down.

Reviewed Jul 14, 2026I love the staff and Redwings - lots of people can work a hotel reception and be pleasant - Redwings Solihull staff are uniquely genuine and warm. They had thoughtfully closed curtains to keep the heat out and remembered us from previous stays.
A tiny fridge in the rooms would be helpful. Like many people, I am not a fan of UHT, and this would easily solve that. I'll even provide the milk! Tiny thing really, and would never stop me staying there.

Reviewed Jul 10, 2026I can only leave a good review, even though I have been asked not to return. In June, I stayed here, which was about my 5th annual visit, and made a mistake by blaming the hotel for something they were not responsible for. On my return home, I realised my error. I immediately called reception and called back after the weekend to speak to the Manager. I sent an apology card and a large bunch of flowers and fell on my sword to no avail. I have a profile picture on social media that my late wife took in the car park of this hotel several years ago, before she was diagnosed. Although I don't blame them, because this was 100% my fault, I do feel very sad that I am unable to return in 2027. Life is far too short for grudges, and anyone reading this who needs a perfect location for the NEC will find it a great place to stay.

Reviewed Jul 5, 2026It’s located 20-30 minutes away from all major attractions we planned on visiting. The staff were very pleasant.
Where to start? The rooms were at an awful hygiene/cleanliness state. There were hairs in the bath, dust caked across the room including the fans used to cool us down. The rooms were boiling hot making it challenging to sleep. We requested a cot bed which ended up being a smaller and less supportive single bed with no additional protection for my child. Finally my other child with mobility difficulties due to disability was required to climb multiple flights of stairs to get to or from the hotel room despite the hotel being made aware of this.
