Reply To: Birmingham – best Hilton options?

The HGI at Brindley Place is good. The Hampton on Broad Street is fine for a Hampton, but a step down. The Hampton in the Jewellery Quarter is a tiny bit nicer, but there’s nothing around it so plan on taking the tram back into the centre for anything. (Tram stop is basically outside the hotel)

With Marriott, both the AC and the new Aloft are nice. The AC is at the mailbox, only a few minutes walk from New Street Station and with a bunch of restaurants and shops by it. The Aloft is a fair way out, 15 minutes walk from New Street with no decent restaurants of pubs nearby, so plan on long walks or a taxi.

The HIX on Holliday Street was excellent during the pandemic when it was super quiet. Prices have shot up and they don’t have enough staff for when it’s full, so I’ve stopped staying there.
