The Spotlight on Station Approach

Simple, Central, and Steps from the Station

Station Approach is a no-fuss, comfortable bed and breakfast in central Solihull, just a 5-minute stroll from both the rail station and the town center. With clean, neutrally decorated rooms, this spot is more about great location and convenience than flashy extras—perfect for music fans who need a solid base before and after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being just minutes from Solihull Rail Station means you can zip into Birmingham or the NEC for gigs without the hassle. After the show, it's an easy late-night journey back, and the quiet residential area offers the peace you’ll crave after a loud night. With check-in from 13:00 and a continental breakfast available until 11am, Station Approach works well for flexible schedules.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for simple, shared accommodations near transport
  • Solo travelers heading to a bucket-list show and needing a quiet space
  • Couples making a low-key music weekend of it
  • Fans needing a quieter space to crash and recover post-concert
  • Budget-conscious travelers who want location over luxury

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’re just a short walk from Solihull’s town center, packed with restaurants, cafes, and late-night bites. The continental breakfast served until 11am is a definite win for late risers. No 24/7 room service, but plenty of eateries are nearby.

Nightlife Options

Solihull may be more chill than Birmingham, but there are local pubs, wine bars, and lounges within walking distance for a pre- or post-show drink. For more vibrant nightlife, hop on a quick train to Birmingham or the NEC area.

What People Say

Guests love the quiet atmosphere, friendly service, and the unbeatable location near shops, bars, and the station. Many note it's great value for money and ideal for short stays around events or gigs.

Areas for Improvement

Some find the decor a little basic and suggest the parking fees could be clearer upfront. There’s also no lift, so carrying bags upstairs might be a factor for some.

The Bottom Line

If you want a well-located, affordable base near transport and post-show essentials, Station Approach is a solid pick for concert nights in Solihull or Birmingham.

Good value for money

Liked: Station Approach B and B is well located, only 5 minutes from the station and buses and in easy walking distance to Solihull centre.The facilities are good. It is spotlessly clean.Breakfast was self service and free teas and coffees are available at any time in the breakfasting area. Reasonably priced. We would stay here again. Thank youOnly quibble: Continental breakfast was a little limited- the addition of some brown as well as white bread and plain as well as fruit yoghurt and maybe fruit would improve it greatly
