Britannia Hotel Coventry

Classic Comfort Just Steps from Coventry's Cultural Heart

A traditional hotel with unbeatable location, the Britannia Hotel Coventry sits right next to Coventry Cathedral and a short walk from the city’s best shops, theatres, and restaurants. This budget-friendly stay offers no-frills comfort with private en-suite rooms, free Wi-Fi, and cathedral views from the on-site restaurant.

Why Concert-goers love it

With the Belgrade Theatre and other local music venues just a 10-minute walk away, you’ll be soaking up the atmosphere in no time. After the show, the short stroll back to the hotel means no waiting for taxis or late-night buses. While it’s right in the city center, guests say it's surprisingly quiet at night – perfect for winding down. The 4:00 PM check-in and central location make it easy to arrive and head straight out to explore.

Who this Hotel is great for

Food and Drink Options

Start your day with a hearty full English breakfast at Bentley's Restaurant, which also serves traditional British and international dishes. The restaurant overlooks Cathedral Square, adding a scenic touch to your morning after a late night. Daimlers Bar offers light meals and snacks—great for a quick bite before heading out. While there’s no 24/7 room service or late-night menu, the central location puts you within walking distance of cafes and eateries that stay open late.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, you’re just a short walk from Coventry’s top nightlife spots. Whether it’s a pre-show drink or a post-concert pint, nearby bars and pubs offer plenty of atmosphere. For something more relaxed, Daimlers Bar is a convenient spot for a quiet nightcap.

What People Say

Guests love the central location, with many noting how easy it is to get to theatres, concerts, and local attractions. The cathedral views and proximity to transport hubs like Coventry Train Station make it a top pick for out-of-town visitors. Reviews also highlight the good value for money, especially for those spending more time out enjoying the city than inside the hotel.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention the hotel is a bit dated, and rooms could use a refresh. Don’t expect ultra-modern décor or luxury extras—but if you’re mainly here to sleep, it does the job. Breakfast can get busy, especially after big events, so plan ahead if you're on a tight schedule.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for an affordable, centrally located hotel with easy access to Coventry's concert venues, the Britannia Hotel Coventry hits all the right notes.
