The Spotlight on ibis Styles Birmingham Centre

Central Birmingham Stay with Style and Convenience

Modern and budget-friendly, ibis Styles Birmingham Centre is perfectly located in the heart of Birmingham. Just a short stroll from the Bull Ring shopping centre and close to key music venues, this hotel offers an easy, stylish base for your concert night and beyond. Expect free WiFi, round-the-clock refreshments, and a relaxed, contemporary vibe – all wrapped up in a pet-friendly package.

Why Concert-goers love it

You're just a few minutes' walk from downtown Birmingham's top venues and nightlife. With late check-out at 12:00, you can sleep in after a long night of music. Public transport is easily accessible, and for a limited time (Dec 25–Jan 15), guests benefit from free parking – perfect if you're driving in for a show. The hotel’s central yet quiet location also makes it easy to wind down post-concert.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends hitting a gig together and wanting a central base
  • Solo travelers checking off their bucket-list artist
  • Couples making the most of a weekend escape
  • Fans who want to retreat to a quieter room after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort and location

Food and Drink Options

The hotel offers 24/7 refreshments, so snacks and drinks are always within reach. A buffet breakfast is available (for an extra charge), perfect for recharging the morning after. While there’s no on-site restaurant, you're only a 5-minute walk from countless restaurants, pubs, and late-night eateries.

Nightlife Options

While the ibis Styles doesn’t host live music itself, you're right near Birmingham’s buzzing nightlife. From cocktail lounges to craft beer spots and live music pubs, everything’s within walking distance. It's an ideal launchpad for both pre-show drinks and a nightcap after the encore.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, super central location, and good value for money. Many mention the clean, modern rooms and how easy it is to walk to shops, venues, and restaurants. The quiet atmosphere despite the central setting is a frequent highlight.

Areas for Improvement

The rooms are on the cosy side, which might not suit those looking for lots of space. Some guests note that the breakfast could offer more variety, especially for the price. Still, these are minor trade-offs for the location and vibe.

The Bottom Line

ibis Styles Birmingham Centre is a smart, well-located pick for concert-goers looking for comfort, convenience, and a wallet-friendly stay in the heart of Birmingham.

Room and staff great -...

Liked: Good location, clean and tidy.
Disliked: The breakfast. The breakfast was horrible. The coffee didn’t taste like coffee, the orange juice tasted like some concoction of industrial chemicals, the bacon looked like it had been boiled, the sausages - I can’t describe the sausages, and I don’t want to talk about the eggs.

Poor - 1.5 out of 5

Will look at other options...

Liked: The location is excellent, especially for the Utility Arena.
Disliked: I was disappointed that after stopping here for quite a few years now, for various events at the utility arena, that the hotel now charges £15 a night for parking. It was always free/included in cost of room. I can’t come by train, as I have a mobility limitations. Breakfast quality and choice has sadly lowered. Because of the above, we decided that we will look at other hotels for our future visits.
