This states that it is a four star but, I believe that this is due to facilities and "boxes ticked" really... Like another recent review, my company made booking "went missing" upon arriving and I actually had to stand my ground to get a room! They then found my booking....sounds like work required on their booking system required! The lift... More

This is not a 4 star hotel: a spacious lobby, a small gym, a trouserpress and some conferencing facilities do not, in my view, make a 4 star hotel. First out the hotel couldn’t find my reservation. When they did it was without any hint of apology or contrition. Indeed, throughout the stay the staff were pretty charmless (much like... More

We stayed here for 2 nights during a research trip at the University of Birmingham. Lots of business-types noted at breakfast--which, by the way, was fresh, abundant and impressive. One negative was that we could smell other people's bathroom scents wafting in through our window, which faced towards the centre of the building/vents. If you're staying on the interior side...

I secured a really fantastic internet deal for bed and breakfast, so my stay was very good value for money, and it's an ideal hotel for a short business trip. Staff are really great, without exception. They really give the impression that they genuinely want to help. Room was very small for a double. For two people, it would have... More

We bought a Groupon deal for 1 night with afternoon tea, evening meal and breakfast. The hotel wasn't as good as other 4* venues we'd stayed at before. The afternoon tea wasn't great - it was all a bit stale. The room was ok, comfy and clean but again nothing special. The food was good and overall the deal we... More

Reception staff always remenbered our names specially the indian man on the desk was exceptional in his job and most... More

Firstly, don't be put off by negative comments in other reviews. My boyfriend and I booked a 3 night stay at Menzies, Strathallan, Birmingham. It was a Friday to Monday stay. We were pleased as we got a good deal, 3 nights plus breakfast each morning and dinner on one night, all for less than £170 on laterooms. My boyfriend... More

The Strathallan looks like much of Birmingham's concrete architecture of the 70's. It is far better on the inside. There is a pleasant reception and bar/lounge area. There is a small gym but no pool. Reception staff were helpful and attentive. Restaurant staff were fun while being professional. The hotel is circular so rooms are slice shaped with the inside... More

Excellent Hotel. Check in and Checkout were a breeze. Good location, with bus stops just outside. Comfortable room, very clean. Excellent breakfast included in price. Comfortable lounge in Lobby. Tea /Coffee tray and ironing board provided in room. And free WiFi. What more can you ask for.
