The reception staff were ok, but the room was very small, shabby and sparse. I booked a single room and had a single bed (which is unusual from previous experience). Only 2 teabags, the cold water tap didn't work properly, a big gap under the door let in all noise and light from the corridor. Breakfast was adequate I found... more

The hotel hosted a Family 40th birthday bash on the 12th in a private room approx 22 adults and 10 children.. The evening was a success and this was mainly due to the Hotel staff on the night , in particular Kamal, all of the staff were pleasant, efficient, patient and couldnt do enough for us despite hosting a tribute... more

Staff at reception helpfull. Found way though maze of corridors to my room. Would question if this hotel would meet modern fire regulations. Room dirty. Pubic hair in bath and sink! Double bed against wall. Only two tea bags in welcome tray. Bar atmosphere non-existent. Food in resturant diabolical along with service. Breakfast not bad and service much improved. Would... more

Got booked in at very short notice because another (full) hotel had lost a couple's booking (who were part of a party) and I let them have my room. Receptionist was friendly but a bit rushed when I arrived, trying to cope with 4 people at once. Decor of the hotel is a bit worn, although freshly pained. Small bedroom... more

We had our wedding reception here at the Great Barr Hotel and it was excellent! Not one guest had any problems during the night and a great time was had by all. On our arrival we were met by a member of staff who looked after us all the way through from the welcome drinks until the last person had... more

The purpose of our 2 night stay in July was to attend an Athletics Meeting at the Alexander Stadium. What a great choice location wise this hotel was. Approx 8 minutes drive, almost along one straight road to the stadium. We booked through Gtahotels on the web and paid £22.00 per person per night including breakfast. The booking service was... more

My husband and I stayed here for 1 night as part of a short break in England. We felt this place is a real mixed bag with good and bad points. On the good side, theres a big car park and the lobby area looks like its been refurbished and is clean and bright. Our room was a decent size... more
