Birmingham – best Hilton options?

The city is pretty poorly served by the brand. Where do you need to be and does it need to be Hilton? Mentioning St. George’s Park suggests you’re happy to be at least 45 mins away from the city.

Do your dates clash with any England football internationals? St. George’s park is a big place so unusual to be sold out unless it’s closed to the public because the England camp have moved in for the week.

Staybridge Suites is a good IHG option in the city. Indigo Stratford upon Avon is also very good if you are happy to travel a bit.

Voco St Johns.
Often as little as 12k points pn.
Walking distance to Solihull Station (Chiltern Railways into Marylebone) and within a stones throw of Creations offices should you wish to say hi to JDB.

I can also recommend the brindle place double tree.

If you tell me locations that you would be close too ill let you know. I know the city/surroundings really well.

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.
