Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was acceptable if you are looking for a place to sleep, but that’s about it. The floor was not hoovered as there was fur and excessive hairs on the floor. The couch in the room was stained and did not look too clean either. The receptionist was not too friendly and was staring at me which I found a bit rude…

The staff at The Great Barr Hotel were all so friendly, helpful and efficient. We stayed for a visit to Crufts and could not have been made more welcome with our 2 dogs. The hotel is very clean and well appointed and we were given a nice room (a suite in fact) which had a very comfy bed and good bathroom/shower facilities. Would recommend to anyone and may visit again one day.

Okay for a one night stay…. Very dated and old, weird smell in the room and a T.V with no Smart Apps. If you are after a comfortable mattress don’t expect one!
