Interesting hotel The positives - SUPERB location (on New St and clearly an old Railway Co hotel). Wonderful reception, marble halls and stairways. Staff superb too. In nice condition too. Bar was good (if a touch pricey) but i am nitpicking... Room was well decorated and nice bathroom, but stupidly warm with a very noisy radiator - again perhaps nitpicking.. For £170 a night though I would expect more than a standard double bed. Sure it was comfortable, but the bed was lost in the size of the room which could easily have had a bigger bed. I mean, come on, you get a bigger bed in a Travelodge.. We are both 6 foot to 6 foot four and the nights sleep was terrible due to the small bed.. oh, and also bad because of....... ROOM NOISE - we were on floor two facing New Street Station. I had TERRIBLE sleep due to trams, station announcements, delivery mopeds buzzing with deliveroo food, people shouting outside - I used to live in central London and have stayed in cities all over the UK with work.. I KNOW that city hotels can be noisy - but this was crazy - in fact the worst I can remember. At one point in the night I had to check if a window was open. Double glazing badly needed. Breakfast... very nice - but very slow. And charging £3 extra for eggs benedict which was a third of the size of my (included) full breakfast plate is cynical. Checkout - was told we had a discount code for the Grand Central car park at New Street - a nice touch.. got to the car park, went to pay - car park fee for 24 hours is £10.00 (to be expected in a city).. but hey - no worries.. we have a DISCOUNT CODE!!! (the new price? £9.50... Oh how we both laughed...) Still. Nice location. Not worth the asking price though. Nowhere near.
