Hotel berhampiran The National Motorcycle Museum di Marston Green

It's a chain hotel close to a busy airport, so: A/ You should expect a noisy night from aircraft and a busy road outside or B/ Ibis should have spent a bit more on noise insulation. Whichever your view, it was a night disturbed by noise from outside. My view was A, up until 1am and I veered towards B thereafter. That said, it was immaculately clean and the staff I encountered were polite, helpful and cheerful. It is, as I say, close to the airport and I booked it with the idea that I could walk from Birmingham International railway station to the Ibis. And I could walk from Ibis to the departure gate. In theory, yes I could have done that, but given the types of roads I would have had to walk along, I would have been in mortal peril if I had tried. A £6 Bolt fare each way should be added on to the cost of your stay as the nearest bus stop is almost as far away from the hotel as the airport itself and requires a similar walk along dangerous roads for pedestrians. To be fair, all of this was fine. I would have liked to know beforehand, though. Of all the budget chains I think Ibis is, generally, my favourite.

As soon as you go into the revolving door you are hit by a clean fresh sent. The hotel downstairs feels modern and clean. Check in was quick and easy and we got a free complementary cocktail each as it was our first time staying at Moxy. Our room was brilliant with motion lighting under the bed and switches at the bed side for other soft lights. The view of the lake and fountain was great. Perfect location to the NEC Birmingham and across the lake you have lots of eateries. We would stay here again if ever going to the NEC.

The hotel is spending a lot of money on re carpeting and room refurbishment which makes the stay more enjoyable but for me the food needs to improve. Bar meal last visit was served on a cold plate, so a cold meal. Breakfast is unappetising so I eat elsewhere. 3 night stay with no room service means the 4 tea bags and milk doesn’t last. But the hotel has improved greatly from where it was and does some great room rate deals.

We booked this hotel last minute after having to make changes to our trip to the NEC. Not fancying a glamping pod, we booked a room and were allocated the honeymoon suite. The hotel was very clean throughout and you could smell the cleaning products as soon as you walked in, indicating the cleaners had been in doing a thorough job. Staff were lovely and friendly and let us check in an hour early as the room was ready when we arrived at 2pm. Free parking is provided and I could see my car from the window of our room. The location is good and site was nice and quiet, despite having an events centre next door. There isn’t much within walking distance however there’s a bar and restaurant on site to cater for your needs. There’s also free wifi however our mobile signals were absolutely fine so we had no reason to make use of it on this occasion. Jacuzzi in the room was a nice touch and big enough to fit two people in. Was delighted to find out that a complimentary breakfast was included the following morning, and not too early either, starting at 9am. Sunday check out at 11am was ideal without us having to rush. As pleasant as the hotel is, it needs a fair bit of work. It’s very dated and tired looking. It’s creaky and old and is in need of a bit of a restoration, more than just a lick of paint here and there. The walls are paper thin, as I was lying in bed I could hear the person in the next room using the toilet - I won’t get graphic but let me just say I could hear everything as though I was in the room with them. One of the windows in our room wouldn’t shut at all, which wasn’t a massive issue as the weather wasn’t too bad, but during colder months this would’ve been impossible to sleep through. The old wooden frames were warped and you couldn’t even put it on the latch as the metal lever had snapped. There was no hot water for the shower so we were forced to take a cool shower. Not the end of the world but a bit inconvenient. My wife also pointed out that there was nowhere for her to get ready and do her makeup. The room is more than big enough to fit a dressing table in and this would’ve saved her sitting on the floor in front of the mirror to do her hair and makeup. It’s also pricey compared to local competitors. Breakfast was okay but lacking a few basics - no hash brown or black pudding. It would also benefit from a variety of options such as fresh fruit and yogurt. On the whole it was a nice experience but I’d only stay here again if I couldn’t get in anywhere else OR if it was modernised and updated throughout.

Very comfortable beds, spacious room and clean. Pleasant staff. Good noise isolation.

The location of the hotel was okay, good nearby links to the train station and attractions. There's no food or drink other than vending machines in the hotel but there is a Sainsbury's local opposite. Bed was comfy and the temperature of the room was controlled. TV was very small and in an awkward position to watch from laying in bed. No hand soap in the dispenser and there was also a leak from the toilet/sink area.

Blocked sink and nobody came to fix it

Yes, it is very worn and dated but it does have a retro 70's charm and provides very good value. Reception was polite and professional but could have been more supportive. We had a issue as our hotel booking site had not paid the hotel. The receptionist ask us to phone them to solve the issue. At better hotels, the reception would have offered to do provide this service. A lack of training? The location is excellent being in the centre of the city, across from the bus station and the transport museum. The views of the ruins of the old in the background and new in the foreground among other ancient and contemporary buildings is wonderful from the rooms at the rear of the hotel are wonderful. The balcony that some of the rooms to the rear have would be a very pleasant place to relax in good weather. The beds are very large and reasonably comfortable with clean beading. The carpet of our room was new, and others were being replaced as we were there. The state of the decor was adequate and past ready for a make-over. However, for the price and location, it was acceptable. The breakfast, which was included, was a pleasant surprise. The buffet breakfast room had a was cosy feel, there was a good selection of cereals, preserved fruits and yogurt. The full English breakfast was very well prepared and of good quality ingredients. The tea and coffee were also of a good standard. Service was professional and efficient, clearly aiming to provide their clients with a very pleasant start to their day.

easyHotel was in a nice location and less than 5-minute walk from the train station if you exit Birmingham New Street.We was welcomed by Eliza at reception, and she was lovely and polite. Made us feel very welcome and really helped us with other things. Our room was clean, and the layout was quite nice compared to other holiday inns.
