    light switch off at bed could be better so all lights go off with one switch rather than having to go around room switching individual ones off. smokers from next door Wetherspoon stand in hotel doorway so you have to walk through smoke.

    welcoming engaging staff member on arrival. rooms spacious, clean and double bed as requested. bathroom and shower good. iron board etc in the room.

    There was no drawer space. Not a problem for me for a one-night stay but could be for a longer stay.

    Welcoming and efficient Reception, secure environment, good-sized single room, comfortable bed with two pillows available, quick lift (elevator), plentiful supply of tea/coffee items, great breakfast in attached restaurant. My Birmingham hotel of choice (4th stay).

    The slight thing was the curtains in my room seem to be missing a few hooks - having worked for family business dealing in upholstery and curtains it was noticeable

    The closeness to New Street. Easy to find The Symphony Hall and managed to walk round the Bullring and visited both cathedrals.

    Clean hotel that was perfect for a one night stay

    When using the shower it created a large thumping sound, which we mentioned as we checked out. The rooms were not very soundproof and we stayed on a Saturday night and got a room facing a very busy road. This meant that we got a complimentary DJ set playing the best hits of the 80's, 90's and today from the bars surrounding us. This didn't bother us too much, but it's worth considering if you're a bit more noise-conscious.

    This has a 24/7 check-in, meaning you can check in anytime. This was fantastic because we got in late on Saturday night (about 10:30pm) and was able to check in immediately. The hotel was clean and attached to the Briar Rose Wetherspoon itself, meaning you could pop down to the pub for breakfast in the morning. The twin rooms were good, and the beds were much more comfortable than I expected. The room also had all the amenities you'd expect, such as an iron and a kettle with a good selection of biscuits, tea, hot chocolate and coffee. The location is also perfect, being very close to both Birmingham stations. For a night stay, this was perfect for us.

    Little noisy on a Saturday night because it's in the city centre. A lot of clubs nearby with loud music. Not suitable for people with light sleep

    Nice big room, really clean and near to the station. Weatherspoon pub is a plus. Complimentary water, tea, coffee, cookies.

    Unfortunately we were on the first floor at the back of the building and got woken up at 6am by barrels being delivered etc!

    Location, location, location! Right in the centre of Birmingham, loads of restaurants and bars around (obviously including Spoons which is just downstairs). The room itself was comfortable and clean with everything you'd need for an overnight stay. Biccies, bottles of water, tea and coffee in the room. Lovely powerful over bath shower! I would definitely stay here again.

    The neighbourhood is dodgy at night but not the fault of the hotel.

    Very clean, nice building, excellent bed, lovely and cozy in the room. Be aware that the door doesn't lock from the inside due to fire constraints. Coffee, tea, water and biscuits in the room. Good wifi.

    There was no drawer space. As a single male travelling for one night this didn't really matter, but just mentioning it in case important to others.

    Excellent check in and room perfect. The bed was very comfortable and the tea/coffee making tray was well stocked. The complimentary bottle of water in the room was much appreciated. Good quick lift. This is now my hotel of choice for central Birmingham and I'm back next week.
