If you’re looking for a bargain place to stay with a bed and a shower, then this is the place for you. It literally is budget, but clean, neat, tidy, friendly, convenient and cosy. We love staying here as we literally cross the road and get our flight. The bar and restaurant are also very smart, friendly, and prices for the menu are reasonable too. If you want luxury go round the corner to Novotel but you’ll be paying a lot more too. Things that could be improved: The Toilet flush and the plug sockets are in awkward places.

perfect for a 1 nıght stay

The fire alarm went off around 22.30. Very poor that no staff came upto the floor to tell us what was going on or to evacuate. After 5 minutes of it going off and no staff to be seen I got dressed and made my way to the stairs- only to meet the staircase full of people. Eventually people came up from the bottom saying it was a false alarm and we could go back to our rooms. Really wasn’t handled very well by the staff who could have done a lot better of coming to each floor to say what was going on .

We have stopped here before several times so are very happy with the Ibis experience.

We usually have an evening meal in the Restaurant and this occasion was no exception, however despite the Staff always doing their best someone managed to make a complete mess of my Wife's food order, and she was given something that was not even on the menu! As there was little option as far as a food substitute went she had to settle for something she did not really like(sweet pepper soup), which i ended up eating(very nice by the way but besides the point), so left a bad taste in the mouth, literally. Disappointing. Probably wont eat there in future, get sandwiches from M&S or Greggs in the Terminal next time. Cheaper option in actual fact.

The Ibis is right across the parking lot from BHX. I had a lot of luggage so I took a cab for ease, but with one suitcase less I could well have reached it by train :) Staff was great, I ended up adding late check out some twenty minutes before the original time because my travel plans changed and the front desk was very helpful with that. My room was on the 8th floor facing the sky shuttle, but I had no problem sleeping, and breakfast is served in a pretty generous time window (6:30 to 10) so even with a late start in the morning, I still had plenty of time to eat. The room was snug, but perfectly serviceable, and the facilities spotless.

I am pleased to report that my stay at the hotel was entirely satisfactory and met all expected standards of accommodation. The room was adequately furnished and maintained in accordance with proper socialist principles. The staff performed their duties diligently, as befits workers dedicated to serving the people. Meals were provided punctually and contained sufficient nutritional value. All facilities functioned as intended, demonstrating the reliability of our nation's infrastructure. Overall, I found no cause for complaint, as everything was precisely as it should be in our great society. The experience reinforced my conviction in the superiority of our system in providing for the needs of the proletariat.

While our glorious socialist system ensures the highest standards of hospitality, I must report two minor deviations from perfection, purely in the spirit of constructive criticism to further enhance our collective experience: The absence of cups in the communal coffee area, undoubtedly a temporary oversight, slightly hindered the efficient distribution of caffeinated sustenance to hardworking guests. The shower's water pressure, when set to an appropriately warm temperature, exhibited a degree of weakness uncharacteristic of our robust plumbing infrastructure. These trivial matters, I am certain, will be swiftly addressed by our dedicated comrades in hotel management, ever vigilant in their pursuit of utmost guest satisfaction in line with Party directives.

Room was very comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was very good with an excellent buffet. Staff very friendly and efficient. Great location for the terminal building - just a five minute walk - and easy to find.

Nothing. However, just be careful when stepping out of the shower. The shower is a separate cubicle within the room and on stepping out of the shower, I had assumed the floor area in front of the shower would have a non-slip surface. My fault for not stepping on to the shower mat but, as a result, I slipped as the floor when wet turned out to be like an ice rink. Fortunately, apart from finding myself on the floor, no damage was done.

We we staying overnight before we traveled back to wales so was perfect, the gentleman on the desk was very patient with us as my bank card was stolen abroad and my partner lost his on the plane but we managed to add my bank card to my wallet and the gentleman was so lovely very professional and just all round a happy chappy thank you. Room perfect for an overnight stay.

My partner went down to get a coke as we just landed so was thirsty and with everything about lost bank cards asked if the bar was open when there were 2 females drinking in bar it was around 2.30am she rolled her eyes and said no when he asked, was full of attitude and clearly didn't want to be on shift. She needs a lesson in manners. But as stated before the gentleman was FANTASTIC

The receptionist was so wonderful when I explained that I was really anxious and have an autism diagnosis. She immediately reassured me and was patient and kind. Her approach to me as an individual is the most perfect I have ever experienced. She made me feel valued and that how I was feeling, especially being rain soaked, was how most people would feel as well. I find reflecting normalisation of my experience rather than exceptionism helps me be at my best and most confident. A brilliant start to my holiday. Thank you. The bed was comfy and shower a delight.

The room was basic as I expected. I was surprised by the lack of a kettle. The kitchenette on the first floor was an okay replacement. Paper cups and wooden stirers; not sure that these are an environmentally friendly option versus mugs and cutlery. Surely near the airport not many people will take home (steal) 'freebies'. The 'teaspoon' safety strategy is an important one for girls and teenagers and I guess others could benefit from this too.

It's the ideal location for an early morning flight, just a 2 minute walk from the hotel into the airport terminal. The staff were friendly & helpful & the room had everything I needed for just one night. I had two very heavy suitcases & was a bit concerned about how I was going to manage to drag them both to the terminal in the morning. The receptionist suggested grabbing one of the airport trolleys & just keep it in my room overnight ...a perfect solution! 😁

A very small thing but it would have been handy to have a plug point near the mirror to plug my hairdryer into 😁

It suited my purpose perfectly as I had booked the cheapest budget airline flight out of Birmingham Airport that day for which I had to check in around 4 in the morning. The location is perfect for this, being only a 5-minute level walk from the terminal building. I have stayed in Ibis Budget before, so I knew what to expect and was not disappointed with the facilities. The blackout blinds and soundproofing are effective, and the bed is comfortable. The shower is excellent. Everything was spotlessly clean. There is a lift to the upper floors, and the staff are welcoming and pleasant. The reception is staffed 24/7, so there are no problems with checking in or out at any time. I have no complaints about my stay and would use this hotel again for a similar situation.

There are some drawbacks to this type of accommodation, which is to be expected for the price. There is no kettle or hairdryer provided, but I do have my own travel versions to bring. The room is relatively cramped, and although the beds would do for a family of three people, I was using up all the space just being in there on my own. The furniture and decor are very plain, with hard floors and a lack of cushioning on the plastic stool provided to sit at the table. The electric socket, although a double socket, did not seem to allow plugging in two chargers side by side, as half of the socket would stop working. These are only minor issues, and overall, I was content with my stay
