Hagley Otelleri

There were 8 of us. 5 adults and 3 children. We had a family room and 2 other rooms. It was only 10 minutes from the family party we were going to. The hotel had an event booked, with music. They did warn us in advance, and the music did go off at midnight as promised. Unfortunately the design of the hotel is that the family rooms are the closest to the function room. We went into the bar for food (nearly 3 hours in the car). The bar manager rearranged tables and furniture to accommodate us all together, nothing was too much trouble. Above and beyond. Totally understanding of hungry 1 and 5 year old, whilst not misbehaving, were loud. The gluten free option one of our party chose was not available, so they accommodated with another meal, and didn't charge the extra. Other staff were also great, offering to help on the corridor etc. Next time we visit family, this will be the first choice. The rooms were spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Only wish we had had the time to visit the spa.

We stayed here last night and I wasn’t impressed at all . Firstly we had phoned up to ask for a room with a bath , as I have fibromyalgia and we never stay anywhere without a bath as it helps me go to sleep easier . We was promised our room had one . When we arrived we realised our room had no bath . Asking to be swapped to a room that had one at reception, we was told the hotel was completely full , they had no staff to change the room and so we had to stay in the room we had been given . Down stairs in the reception area and bar is quite modern and nice . Our bedroom was we equipped with a fridge , kettle and iron board , but the decor was very dated … a room that looked to have been attempted to have been modernised on a low budget . Wood chip type walls were still a feature and the toilet , which was a separate room , was grubby and looked unclean . The room also smelt of cat wee , I have no idea why , but it did . The bar was extremely short staffed and we felt very sorry for the one bar staff that was rushed off his feet . We couldn’t even have a coffee before we’d went to our room , totally understandable from the bar staffs point as he was so busy he’d turned the machine off , but from a hotels point if view it was poor … you desperately need more staff to accommodate the large hotel you have . Not having a bath left me with a restless night , with little sleep . The breakfast was good though , definitely a plus point . I didn’t like that there was signs asking if you’d paid your parking as hotel staff wouldn’t inform you of the charges what happens to those who can’t read ? A nice £100 fine is what they’ll probably get … come on novoetel , you need to tell and warn your guests , you have that responsibility to look after them . This hotel is not very friendly for people with conditions , All in all I don’t think we’ll be staying in a novoetel anytime soon , it wasn’t the best .

Very clean relatively newly renovated rooms. The hotel is in a quiet green area which conveniently close to the city centre. The breakfast was very pleasent and good value. The staff are friendly and the room was very clean. Overall this was an excellent hotel.

I cant thank the staff enough from check in to check out the service was excellent. The ladies on check in were very efficient and helped with car park charges. The staff were accommodating to provide extra toilet roll finished in room and nothing was an inconvenience for the staff. I will most likely visit again.

The stay at Bromsgrove Hotel & Spar was a nice stay, receptionist was nice. The room was clean, big and comfortable had a nice tv and everything you need in the room. Only advice I would give to this hotel is prepare cups instead of paper ones. Apart from that everything was perfect. I would stay again.

I will not hold it against the hotel if other guests are making noises outside my door. The location is great, rooms are clean, well stocked with tea/coffee, staff is friendly and professional so what else can I ask for. It is not a spanking new hotel so do expect some inevitable wear and tear. As the weather turned hot the room was starting to get stuffy and I had to open the windows which looked out to a quiet alley. If I need to, I would stay here again as it is a pleasant place.

This apart-hotel is very centrally located, and it is easy to get around on foot for shopping, dining, bars, entertainment, and more. The property itself is in a pedestrianised area, which is great as you do not have to dodge traffic while getting back to your apartment in the dark! The reception area is very simple and minimalist, which is also great because you can head straight for the lift rather than having lots of distractions every step of the way. The reception team was always polite and professional. When we checked in, our room was not ready, but when we returned after lunch, they had already taken our cases up to the apartment for us. The apartment itself was lovely, very spacious and comfortable. We had a clubman apartment, which had the added bonus of a nice large bathtub. The bedroom was small but perfectly fine for our 4-night stay. The kitchen area had everything you need to cook for yourself if you wish, although we did not cook at all. There was a juicer and coffee machine but no instructions. As we are clueless about such things, we ended up using neither. The views from the apartment are stunning, particularly at night when everything is lit up. It was a lovely, relaxed stay and I would definitely stay at these apartments again for the comfort, convenience, and location.

I wrote the following email to the hotel upon check out, (14 days ago and no response) We booked a family room, as we had our little boy with us he is 4 and he could not reach the sink, you may like to consider in offering a child’s step when selling it as a family room so they can reach the sink and climb into bath. The shower curtain was not very clean and I didn’t feel comfortable when it was sticking to my skin whilst showering. See attached photo. There was no information given or provided in the room about the Wi-Fi. There was no TV guide on the television. No fridge in the room. One toilet roll for a family of three. No air conditioning We were notified that the swimming pool was closed which was disappointing but at least notified even though it didn’t reflect in the price. Breakfast was Luke warm buffet style so disappointing. The housekeeper knocked the door at 8.30am when we hadn’t checked out. I would like to mention we stayed at The Marriot in the centre of Birmingham on Tuesday night and this was a much better experience. All in all, it was a very disappointed stay.

There were no towels despite me having a booking for six people, and only one toilet roll but after asking I did get everything I needed. Also there’s no point checking in online as it’s still a very long wait at reception. Car park is pretty much non existent but overall I’m happy with my stay.

I stopped here one night with friends for my birthday. The hotel is easy to get to, and the location is excellent as it’s located on Broad Street, near Brindley Place which hosts a wide range of bars and pubs. So if you’re visiting Birmingham to have a drunken, night out or a special occasion then this hotel is perfect. There’s also parking on site behind the hotel which is very handy, unfortunately the car park isn’t discounted for guests stopping in the hotel. After waiting in a small queue, we attempted to check in at 14:30 (half hour earlier than check in ‘opens’) we were told the room wasn’t ready. Which wasn’t an issue as they had luggage storage available. We can back to check in at 16:00 and the queue was horrendous. I’ve never seen a queue as big as this to check in for a hotel before. We waited for 20 minutes until we checked in. The room was spacious, clean and well equipped. Although there were coffee cups left behind the curtains upon entry. The bathroom was very modern and had a walk in shower. The beds were unbelievably comfy and had plug sockets by the side of the bed which is a massive plus as not every hotel has this. Luckily, it was a quicker process checking out as you can just pop your keys in the ‘express checkout box’. Overall, a comfortable night stay in the heart of Birmingham, unfortunately the check in was horrific.
