"I've stayed at Old Silk Appartments twice so far in apartments 8 and 9. Both I found spotless, white soft towels, comfy beds, tastefully decorated well maintained and adequately appointed. Large fridge freezer, 4 ring hob oven and microwave, basic set of kitchen utensils and a couple of pans adequate to cook something simple.
Large TV with Netflix etc WiFi etc
It's better than a hotel room in terms of space and comfort at considerably less cost.
There are lots of late night food places in...

"It was very cheap done the job with breakfast included. Just could do with a repaint and a decent bar and sound proofing as you can hear what’s going on in the rooms next to you. "
"I am going to leave an honest as possible review.
Firstly, the staff at the hotel were friendly, and welcoming - especially the front of house.
They welcomed me and my two kids with warmth and friendliness. They also did their absolute best to give us a high floor (as I wanted to impress the kids). The room itself was nice, with great views.
However, for the price of this hotel, there are a few niggly complaints.
1. The AirCon didn't work. The lowest temperature they allow is 19 c. That's for sustainability, I understand, but it's useless when it doesn't work. The glass fronted building also allows a great deal of heat in, which can only be countered by closing the blackout curtains. This is fine, but if you want to be able to appreciate the view in the day time, you'll need A/C to be working.
2. The breakfast staff seemed to just be two people. This meant that they were absolutely run off their feet trying to fix things like the coffee machine, pancake maker (didn't work), refill food, help guests, clean tables, etc. Perhaps they were just missing a staff member (or two?) but, in reality, a hotel like this should be able to compensate for a person down by bringing in staff from elsewhere to support.
3. This might seem a small first world thing but the TVs in the room are not smart, as advertised - the casting doesn't work. Kids disappointed as they don't get TV in hotels much.
Positives:
Clean
Beautiful main bathroom in Suite
Very close to a Londis
Great view"
"I had an absolutely amazing stay at the Crowne Plaza Birmingham City Centre. From start to finish, everything exceeded my expectations.
A special mention goes to Ash at reception, who was incredibly pleasant, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. He kindly arranged an early check-in and even offered me a late check-out free of charge, which made a huge difference to my trip.
The hotel itself was spotless, with a very clean and comfortable environment. The breakfast was excellent—varied, delicious, and very family-friendly.
The location is perfect, especially if you’re visiting for events. I stayed during the Birmingham Half Marathon, and the hotel was ideally situated—just about a minute from Centenary Square and around a five-minute walk to New Street Station, making everything easily accessible.
Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be returning in the future!"
"We had a lovely stay and overall a fantastic experience. The hotel was clean, well presented, and had a really welcoming atmosphere. Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
The breakfast buffet was amazing, with a great variety of fresh options to suit everyone – a perfect start to the day. The staff throughout the hotel were warm, friendly, and always happy to help, which really made a difference.
The location is excellent, right by the NEC and very close to Birmingham Airport. We visited the Gladiator Experience at the NEC, which was so easy to reach on foot in under 10 minutes – super convenient.
A special mention to Karisma, who served us food and drinks at the bar on Friday evening, even towards the end of her shift. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. Her positive attitude and excellent service really stood out.
Thank you to the whole team – we would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to others!"
