ibis Styles Birmingham Hagley Road 3 étoiles

A smile from the young ladies on Reception would have made me feel more welcome! The room, though small, was adequate, but the only 2 power points in the room were next to the bed. So I had to move the hospitality tray from the shelf where I found it (nowhere there to plug in the kettle!) In the bathroom the mirror light didn't work nor did the plug in the washbasin. My room 123 on the first floor overlooked the car park at the front and the very busy Hagley Road. I didn't have the continental breakfast at the Ibis, but went down the road for a full English at the Duck Beefeater.

I stayed here because it was less costly than city centre on a Saturday. The bus ride was short and cost about £2.00 for a single. Check in was great and staff and service were lovely and all smiles. The room was OK. Although I was on the side facing the road the window worked well to block the sound. I thought ibis styles was somehow better than Ibis but I'm not sure of the difference. Rooms are small and I was very glad I was on my own trying to navigate around my bed. The shower is also small but everything worked. The bus was also quite frequent.

Les chambres sont minus, les draps pas très propres (des cheveux sur les oreillers) le matelas devait avoir 10 ans et était enfoncé au milieu… Restaurant fermé alors que l’hôtel est au milieu de nulle part

I was impressed with the checking in service and cleanliness of the room! The shower was spot on too! More powerful than other high street hotels! Unfortunately no fridges in the room but for the price you pay it’s excellent for an overnight stay

The hotel staff were very good and went out of their way to accommodate me in a twin room. When I was unwell they even got me some honey. The hotel was clean and beds comfortable. It was nice and warm and cozy. The continental breakfast was good. There was free on site parking which was very convenient.
