Well, this was our second stay at Awentsbury which itself tells you something. It's certainly not great but we don't find it nearly as awful as some reviews describe. The main advantage is it's pleasant residential location close to Uni and our son's place in Selly Oak. Yes, the room fittings and furnishings are on the old side and it... More

The house is quaint, the rooms - well my room - spartan but perfectly adequate. Breakfast is traditional but very good and consistently so. The Wifi service is iffy at best, practically non existent in individual rooms. The location is good if you're at the university; otherwise, a car is a must. About 25-30 pounds to airport in taxi.

We had travelled from Hastings to Nottingham at 4.00 that morning and then after being at Nottingham University Open Day all day, we then travelled down to Birmingham to book into the Awentsbury Hotel. Imagine my distress, when, tired, hungry and extremely tense from having to do hundreds of miles of driving in one day, I discovered that although we... More

I have just come back after a night stay in this horror hotel if you could call it that . Dirt, old shabby decor, old dirty brown bed linen, dirty crockery and the list goes on ... Breakfast was horrible disguting fried to death cheap And nasty ingredients and the decor was shambles. Can not believe they call it a... More

DO NOT stay here it is the most horrible, dirty "hotel" I have ever styed in. Booked one night for a wedding and after we were shown the room by the cleaner, I was horrified to see the separate shower /toilet room . Dirty carpets, dirty brown horrible bed linen, shabby old crockery, Old Tv and the list goes on... More

Single en-suite clean, comfortable. Hotel 10 mins walk from bus and University. Staff very helpful with local knowledge. Quiet location away from main roads. Food very good. More

I booked this hotel after 'Google-ing' hotels in the area I needed to stay in. They have a good website, almost giving the image of a classy place to stay, but now I look back at the website there are actually no interior photos shown. The room was a twin ensuite. Very dated decor/furniture and a truly appalling, old threadbare... More

I booked a room for my husband on a business trip based on the pictures they had posted on their website. My husband arrived to a shabby, unkempt, unwelcoming B&B. The kettle in the room didnt work, the tv was an old 17" tv with only 5 channels and the connection to the wifi was too low to stay online.... More

We stayed for one night only at this hotel with our daughter who needed to be at Birmingham University first thing the following morning. The location was excellent for the university - within walking distance. There was an AA 3 star sign on the outside window and an AA 2 star sign in the porch window. When the owner answered... More
