Birmingham Great Barr Hotel

Amazing Spacious and Lovely Hotel

Liked: The room was spacious and clean, and the breakfast was delicious. Very nice hotel and the restaurant served a very good burger. The bed was soft, large and comfortable. The bathroom was also spacious and clean. A very pleasant stay, the only thing that was missing was a mini bar.
Disliked: The shower handles were difficult to turn as they didn't really have any grip, also perhaps a handle on the shower slide door on the inside would be great.

Good

Disappointing

Exceptional

Liked: Every where was very clean, the staff were very helpful, the only thing I would change would be the choice of music at breakfast time, I'm happy to have music on but I would have liked something more gentle, but if the need to stay there again I would not hesitate to do so.
Disliked: The toast machine, and the music played at breakfast time, but that is just my opinion.

Superb

Passable

Disappointing

Disliked: Walls were made of tracing paper, floorboards very creaky and bed was very hard and uncomfortable, booked for work so just an overnight stay. The downstairs is nice the rest just very old and could do with major updating

Very good

Liked: Lovely hotel and a great location for us visiting family in the area. Lovely breakfast.
Disliked: No plug sockets near the bed and shower pressure wasn't great

Should be cheaper

Liked: It looks ok from the outside, the immediate foyer is nice
Disliked: It’s very outdated and I think this could be reflected in the price. It smells very strongly of damp from the corridors to the rooms. My room smelt of damp and stale alcohol. ButIt was clean. The breakfast was ok but I was abit nervous to touch most things as it’s pretty dead and I wasn’t sure how long food had just been sitting there. Also it took me a moment to realise that no locks on the doors however you cannot enter with a key however just really didn’t feel very secure.
