Lisa fantastic, freshly cooked breakfast
Pros:

Premier Inn room and bed was as reliably good as ever.

Two things made this location stand out.

Firstly rather than a buffet style cooked breakfast our order was taken (we could order as much as we wanted) and it arrived freshly cooked and hot - yummy!

Secondly Lisa was fantastically helpful. We required unusual assistance and Lisa provided the perfect solutions all with a friendly, smiling face. Thank you so much!

Another great stay in Birmingham
Pros:

Just spent two nights in this premier inn in Great Barr , Birmingham ( 3rd stay in 2 years ) and as previous visits we have had a brilliant time. The staff cannot do enough for you and Lisa on reception looked after us like we had known her forever, despite being very busy herself every time we approached her for help or advice 😊 The rooms are spotless and breakfast beautiful cooked and filled you up for the day ( so much choice and value for money). Really helps to make your stay memorable.We are going back in January and can't wait to be honest

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Another Lovely Stay!
Pros:

We had yet another lovely stay at the Premier Inn. I regularly stay here when I travel down to see my partner, and this is by far the best Premier Inn I’ve stayed at. It’s a smaller hotel, which makes it so peaceful, always spotless, and the beds are extremely comfortable.

One of the biggest reasons we keep coming back is the amazing hospitality from Lisa. She’s so friendly and welcoming, and always goes out of her way to make our stay special each time — even managing to squeeze us in for breakfast after we were a few minutes late down!

Thank you again for another great stay, we’ll definitely be back! ☺️

Overall comfortable stay
Pros:

Very comfortable bed, clean and tidy, had plenty of towels. Room was little cold but soon heated up with the heaters available, good Tv channels
Parking was good ample space and location is neatly tucked away from main road. Good customer service at the front desk.
Kettle didn’t work so couldn’t have hot drinks, bathroom was tidy but toilet wasn’t cleaned properly as there was stains on it.

Clean, comfortable, and great customer service from Lisa.
Pros:

We stayed here with our two young children for one night. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable.

The real highlight, however, was their ‘front of house’ staff member, Lisa. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and was a real pleasure to deal with. She was polite and friendly, and our daughters came away feeling very special.

We would definitely stay here again.

Awful smell!
Pros:

Checked in last night for a single night stay. Was given room 106. The room smelt a bit stale when we went in, but it was late so we went straight to bed. By the morning the smell was terrible! It was coming from the bathroom and seemed to be the drains. We couldn't bring ourselves to use the facilities, it was so bad. The room should never have been given to guests - there is no way anyone could have missed it. Won't be returning.

Premier Inn Hotel- Birmingham (Great Barr/ M6 J7)
Pros:

Recently stopped at the Premier Inn Hotel in Birmingham (Great Barr/M6 J7) and the experience was nothing but positive.

The room we stayed in was lovely and clean and fully catered for our needs for the duration of our stay.

The breakfast was lovely with plenty of variety for all of us and the cooked breakfast was cooked to order meaning it was hot and fresh.

From our arrival the staff were amazing, friendly, cheerful and always happy to help.

Lisa the deputy manager could not do enough to assist me and my two boys during breakfast to ensure our needs were catered for. Friendly, cheerful and super helpful she is an absolute credit to Premier Inn. Thank you Lisa!
