Unbelievable location - right in the middle of the shops but high enough up no disturbance to sleep! Great arrangement with easy parking, apartment well equipped and ideal for shopping weekend or girls or city break with family. Short walk to train station and then only a few stops to lg arena - stress free and relaxing break!

Had a couple of nights here on business and whilst I had a pleasant stay, I was not as awe-struck with this place as some of the previous reviewers. Maybe the monthly draw for a free stay for those who have made favorable reviews sways it for some.
The views from the 19th floor are unarguably breathtaking and the memory foam mattress was very comfortable but you can get good wi-fi and other convenient features in lots of places these days. Memory foam pillows would be an improvement on the soggy offerings that are currently in place. The numerous light switches and dimmers were a pain in the backside and difficult to get set right. Got back to a cold room and had to switch the heaters on - several hours later had to get out of bed in the middle of the.night to turn them down. The coffee machine was over complicated and despite the provision of a manual, the thought of microwaving milk and faffing about when there was a Starbucks two minutes away was pointless. More user friendly versions do exist. The provision of oranges to juice was novel but realistically who wants to get up ten minutes earlier to make their own juice??? Shower was ok but the open plan arrangement meant that it flooded the floor and didn't drain away which was annoying. Was woken up one morning to the sound of running water as the shower seemed to burst on temporarily - possibly when a neighbouring room used their shower. Couldn't quite believe that the floor to ceiling patio windows could be opened on the 19th floor - something i didn't muster the courage to do!!! The restaurant and takeaway information in the manual needs updating after finding one place had closed down - very annoying to have been left out of date information. Maid service on second day extended to slinging the duvet cover over the bed but little else - would rather they hadn't bothered. Novel place to try if money no object and you don't mind ignoring some issues.

Me and my girlfriend stayed on the 19th floor of this amazingly cool apartement complex on a thursday evening, on the 19th floor. Living in Birmingham all of my life, I had made trips into the city probably hundreds of times, and had always looked over the rotunda as this big waste of space building that seemed to tower over the developing areas of the city, i.e the new bullring. After speaking with the parents, I realised that this building had actually served a purpose as offices. Nonetheless, after hearing glowing reviews on the internet about peoples stays in the apartements, I decided to book the Thursday evening. All I could say as we first entered the building was wow. The room we stayed in/clubman was immaculately clean and furnished to a high standard. The views were intense, and upon realising that the huge glass floor to ceiling windows standing 19 stories up actually slid all the way open, I cant say I had to stand back for a while. Dont worry though there is a guard rail! Throughout our stay here, the views ceased to amaze, with birmingham city looking like an array of stars beneath the moonlight. Everything else was equally as impressive, including the ever so comfy king size bed and the large bathroom with a bath bigger than mine at home!
Upon checkout we both wished we could have stayed for longer. Being students however our budget was rather limited and our uni grants didnt stretch as far for two nights! We are hoping to return in the summer however and we honestly cannot wait. Thanks Guys for an awesome time.

A romantic weekend booked in the romantic hotspot that is the West Midlands. Took the short drive from our city to this one where we spend a lot of our time. We prefer Birmingham to where we live.

Parked up in a nearby car park which we found to be cheaper than the one offered in the deal.


Walked up and checked in very smoothly. Got up to the room via one of the fastest lifts/elevators ever lol. 19th floor i think. A view on the opposite side of the Bull Ring looking towards the Mailbox.

We had booked through another site and a free bottle of wine was on offer. The site said we should tick our preference of red or white so we did and we ticked red but we got white. Oh well, the mum in law can have it.

There were supposed to be two boxes of cereals but they were missing. We popped out to do a bit of shopping and a meal and so we told the girl on the reception about it and she said she would get them put in which she did. Thanks. We probably were not even that bothered about the cereal but when you pay a good price for a whole package, if something is supposed to be there, it is supposed to be there. Simples.

After some food at the nearby restaurant Jamie's, we headed back and swiped in and got back up to the room. The room is simply efficiently modern (or something).
We were happy with the room and the view was good. i spent a lot of the time looking out of the windows and we didn't close the curtains at all during the stay. It was more fun that way.

Enjoyed the SKY tv and the books and there are a few board games and some music and toiletries.
Did not notice any spectacular night's sleep as some others have previously mentioned.
Then again, I felt lively and refreshed and had not one ache or pain so maybe it was better than I realised.

In the morning, I was going to make some coffee but guess what? There was no coffee. We were chilling out in pyjamas and were due to check out in two hours so we didnt want to bother getting some sent up. I have noticed on the previous review that the management had replied to a reviewer who had stated that a frying pan was not in their room by saying that an inventory check was done every time so it would have been there. Well, I am guessing the same checks were done in our room but we had the wrong wine, no cereal and no coffee. But we are all human or at least most of use are even in Birmingham so it was no massive deal to us. I just thought I should mention it in my review so i can give a fair review.

And...we had tea instead of coffee and the tea was lovely.

To round this review off, we had a fantastic weekend, it worked wonders for the two of us and a lot of thanks goes to the people who put this set up together. We would definitely return here. In my own opinion, I could get a more plush hotel experience for a similar price or even lower with breakfast included etc but the whole experience of being up there and the exclusivity of it makes it a winner.

I know my review may sound a little picky but believe me, we had a wonderful time here and it was a great experience and we are very happy we did it and we would return. :)
