My stay was at the standard Premier Inn, which was ideal for a family trip over the bank holiday weekend. The room was clean and comfortable, but it was slightly warm, possibly due to the long weekend. The staff were friendly and helpful, making our anniversary weekend away even more enjoyable. The location was perfect for our trade show visit at the NEC, just off the M6 and a short drive from central Birmingham. The dining experience was good, although breakfast was a bit busy, and the facilities met our needs during the stay.

The Premier Inn hotel exceeded my expectations in many ways. The rooms were modern, spacious, and spotlessly clean, providing everything we could have hoped for. The service was exceptional, with the staff being extremely warm, friendly, and even going the extra mile to chill some wine for me. The location was convenient for both the M6 connections and exploring central Birmingham easily. The dining experience, although with a few managerial inconsistencies, offered delicious dishes and friendly service. Overall, a great value for money stay with some minor room temperature issues.

My stay at this hotel was great! The rooms were modern, spacious, and clean, just what I expected from a recognized brand chain. However, there were some issues with the air conditioners in a few rooms due to high occupancy during the bank holiday weekend. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the location was convenient, just a short walk from the town center and near the NEC. The dining experience was lovely but a bit pricey, particularly the salads.
