Saint Pauls House

Great location for jewellery quarter

There was a wedding on when we stayed & we weren’t informed about it beforehand. When we turned up we were told that there was no use of the bar and we had to enter via the side door (which was always locked - so we had to jump up and knock on the window and wait in December for someone to come & open it). The music went on late (sounded great, but I am pregnant and was looking forward to a good nights sleep without the dog!), and the room was freezing - we couldn’t put the heating up any more than 24 on the thermostat and it was sooo cold, it just never heated. If we were 10 years younger & not expecting a baby, I probably could have accepted the situation, but unfortunately if we’d have known about the wedding, lack of use of the facilities & the music going on til 12ish, we’d have just booked elsewhere. Disappointed!

This is one of our favourite hotels in Birmingham. The staff are lovely and the facilities are lovely.

Now don’t get me wrong, we were put in room A2. Do NOT book this room, my advice is to contact the hotel first and ensure you are not in this room. Reason being that the single pane widows are quite drafty but the extractor fan outside the window runs ALL night and makes sleeping difficult.

Good sized room and bathroom. Some freebies in mini fridge. Nice ambience in bar snd restaurant area.

A tad slow in the restaurant,we had a concert to attend so some time constraints.

Nothing much

I was told via booking.com that the car parking would be arranged with no extra charge. A day later I was told via booking.com that the car parking was not guaranteed and would cost an extra £20. odd. Birmingham was a filthy city full of rubbish and road closures. The hotel lift was not working. The room was very small the window high up on the wall with a very sad view. Noise all night from an air con unit right outside. My drink at the bar that night was certainly not a gin and tonic but something which I returned, as it tasted very bad indeed. It was replaced free of charge. We did not risk breakfast. Overpriced and deceptive on parking.

Nice hotel and restaurant. Room simple but ok, comfortable bed. Good breakfast.

Window not isolating much.
