伯明翰度微酒店 (Hotel du Vin Birmingham)

I recently stayed at Hotel du Vin Birmingham for one night, mainly because the location was very convenient for an event nearby. Unfortunately, the stay didn’t start well. When my partner arrived first, he noticed the room didn’t seem properly cleaned. We raised this with staff and were moved to another room on the third floor. Although this room felt cleaner, it still wasn’t spotless — the carpet on the stairs down to the bathroom clearly needed vacuuming, and there were two oil radiators switched on that made noise during the night. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable, the room was spacious, and we appreciated the welcome drink vouchers for the bar downstairs. Overall, the stay was okay, but the beginning was disappointing. If we hadn’t had enough time before our New Year’s Eve party, moving rooms would have made us late, which added unnecessary stress.

Birthday night away. Very grand lounge and smart staff. Had some good martinis and lovely cup of tea. Spent the late afternoon and evening in the bar. Cosy and warm. Nice room, very spacious but felt odd like furniture missing! Bathroom dated. Good bed and bedding :-) Breakfast was terrible, let’s the hotel down. Asked for cream cheese bagels and was given what tasted like whipped cream - defo not cream cheese. Continental was very poor for such a lovey hotel. Really dissatisfied.
