Love the quality of the rooms, bit of a noisy road and a bit lonely as there are no public areas or facilities, be nice if cutlery were available in the room as I had to eat an Uber with two teaspoons! Would like wider gates too, almost impossible to get a Range Rover in!

Wonderful property, beautiful room, stylish and comfortable Only thing I would say, maybe couples better staying on the ground floor as the sound from above can be a little noisy but absolutely no issues or complaints about the property at all and the staff very helpful and efficient

We had an amazing night away here - I've wanted to visit for ages and finally got the opportunity on my birthday this year. We were given room 16 which is huge and has a gorgeous free standing bath. The room had been decorated with petals and towel swans!! Felt totally spoilt. Appreciated the Cafetiere and ground coffee on the tea tray. Fresh milk in the fridge would've been a nice touch but that's my only quibble.

The hotel was safe and nicely done out. Had a ground floor room, so there was some noise from people walking around upstairs and as I was right by the front door, also got all the noise from people coming and going. My daughter's room was at the back, so would suggest asking for a back room for quiet, although she too said she could hear noise from people above. It's not clearly signposted where to park, so that's easy to miss. But overall, we thought it was good.

A short stay for my fiances birthday, was very nice and cosy, price was very reasonable for what we got, only issue we had was the WiFi wasn’t so great for streaming but we made do with our mobile hotspot. Bathtub in the room was a very nice touch and the large waterfall shower was very enjoyable. Would appreciate if there was a deadbolt on the door, for added sense of security.

Disappointing
Disappointed by the damp/mold smell in the room. One of the lights in the bathroom didn’t work. I expect more for this price. There was one chair in the room- two or a sofa would have been nice. The room felt bare.

The room was very clean and the bathtub was lovely but there is no food at the hotel. There are a few nice places around. The fire alarm went off at 7.30am on Sunday morning so scuppered any chance of a lie in which was why I was staying there in the first place. There was no staff on site to switch it off and it went on for over 30mins. Eventually we switched it off ourselves. I have tried contacting the hotel by email but it is not working. It is a shame as the room was nice.

Excellent hotel
A very nice hotel in Edgbaston near to city centre, lovely old style building and room is very nice with high ceilings, lots of space a nice bath and bathroom. Very minor issue was I couldn’t find a way to get fresh air into the room at night - probably as the room is ground floor so opening a window isn’t secure - but it felt a touch stuffy at night. Breakfast v nice.
