Westbourne Lodge Birmingham

The owner and staff are very friendly.

The price is on the high side. Also it varies between the lodgers. Ours was on the most expensive side

Norma was great! Neighborhood was nice. Went for a walk and felt safe — though I was advised to walk before 9 pm. Kitchen is great. Backyard is splendid.

Friendly staff, facilities were good, lovely garden

It felt like a home from home, thanks to the lovely Norma.

Norma is a wonderful hostess. She is so friendly and helpful and always has the residents’ best interests in mind. Along with her staff, the Westbourne Lodge gives a homey vibe to travellers, especially to long time solo travellers who are homesick. Norma welcomed me at the door when I arrived, and has been so helpful during my stay. Norma’s kitchen is spacious and very well equipped, full of electrical appliances you can name. There is a lovely garden in the Lodge as well, where you can spend a great time with yourself and your dog if you have one. The Lodge is well located in a quiet neighbourhood. I could hear bird songs all day long. There is a big window in my room with a nice view of the greenery nearby. It is close to bus stops where you can travel to different areas of the city easily. I cannot speak enough about the good things about Norma and the Lodge.

I haven’t used the launderette, so I cannot comment on that.

Nice comfy bed. Friendly staff and.a nice kitchen I was too lazy to use.

The owner and the staff at this Lodge were amazing always asking if everything was okay if we needed something. They arranged for a cab when we needed one no problem at all. Beds were comfy room was large. We booked 5 weeks before we travelled so unfortunately no main floor room was available there is no lift so if mobility is a problem might not be for you. Ask them tho if they have it they will do what they can for you.

The location was ideal. Very close to frequent bus routes but off the main road enough to make it quieter. The host, Norma, was absolutely lovely; as were the others I met in my two week stay. The room was nice and warm and the shower was ok. The bed was comfortable.

The coin-operated laundry facilities were not good. I wish I'd used a launderette instead; it certainly would have been cheaper and more controllable.
