2nd trip to Birmingham. First time stayed at Park Hyatt. That was a forgettable experience, no different to any other Hyatt. Could just as well been in any number of cities around the world. Rotunda by comparison was fantastic. Upgraded to top floor room.Great location, great views and so much more space. Enjoyed centrality and making own breakfasts. Bed was... More

Stayed in the Cabriolet for four nights for a very intensive course for work. The apartment made the whole week a joy. It was so nice to come back each evening to somewhere that I actually got rather attached to!! The outdoor space was brilliant for a country bumpkin 'like what I is', the staff were really friendly (and genuine... More

Terrific location and service at Staying Cool. Loved the views and making freshly squeezed OJ for breakfast! Pleasant surprise to see a Gaggia espresso maker in the room, which I know from my own research is one of the top brands available. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Birmingham.

The location is second to none... right at the entrance to the Bull Ring centre and 5 mins walk from New St station. The apartment was stylish with an excellent kitchen and great views. The kitchen meant that I didn't eat out but went to M&S next door and ate in the apartment. Much better than a hotel!

Hi Craig, We are thrilled that you loved your stay with us and our central location- after all there is nothing worse than having to lug a case for miles. It seems from our recent reviews that staying in is the new going out. We hope to see you again. Best Wishes, Simon. More

Perfect location for our special 60's birthday. Excellent decor, facilities and staff made our stay unforgettable. Out 18th floor apartment was perfect for us to relax and we spent ages spotting landmarks. My husband came to Birmingham in 1960 from Ireland and spent 40 years there. We returned to celebrate his birthday in style and had a wonderful time.

It's great to hear that you and your husband love Birmingham and chose to spend his birthday with us. P.S. Thank you again for the Black Forest gateau. Best Wishes, Simon. More

We had a great stay at the Rotunda in a Roadster Penthouse apartment. Great views made even better due to the sunshine. Great location for shopping at the Bullring. We are looking forward to returning.

I've not stayed in serviced apartments before, so it was slightly strange to begin with as it was all so informal and unlike anything I've been to before. You couldnt top the location - it's right in the middle of the city centre. We were on the 19th floor and I can honestly say its the best view I've had... More
