Aloft Birmingham Eastside

This could be such an amazing place. But the rooms, whilst really nice, are pricey. Bar prices really put you off. But biggest issue whilst we were there were the lifts. Three lifts for guests, two of which weren't working when we arrived. The following morning, the third lift was taken out of use, leaving guests to either walk 5/6 floors up/down the stairs, or use the 'staff' lift; cleaners trying to use this lift, and a complete circus trying to get in/get out. I'd really love this place to put everything right, but wouldn't book again until they have. Sorry!

Liked: The rooms, the layout and 'vibe'. Restaurant/breakfast also very clean and sharp - food very tasty.
Disliked: Snack bar and main bar prices completely extortionate - £25 for a bog-standard bottle of house white being one of many examples. Biggest issue - the lifts!

Superb

Handy for Birmingham Conservatoire

Liked: Great location for seeing concert at Birmingham Conservatoire. Comfortable room, excellent bed. Advised on pre concert meal by helpful staff- sharing platter which was excellent.
Disliked: Maybe could do with more than 2 tea bags for a couple staying?

We had a lovely experience...

Liked: Friendly staff. Late check out. Excellent room ambiance and amenities. Tasty food.
Disliked: We ordered a sharer platter in the evening, it seem that the chicken wings were either re-fried or overcooked but other food items in the platter were tasty.

Worked just fine

Liked: Clean , modern
Disliked: Instant Coffee

Disliked: The only issue we had was someone was banging at 8 o’clock in the morning , I usually sleep with rain sounds and that would of avoided being woken up
