Weekend in Bromsgrove
Pros:

The reception area was cluttet free and felt inviting and staff at the desk were very nice. The rooms we spacious and well appointed. Breakfast was lovely, we especially liked the sausages and bacon.

Cons:

The drive way needs some urgent attention, and the associated area for parking. Several large potholes and with the rain at the time of our visit, there was a large pooling of water on the main driveway.

Highly dissapointed
Pros:

Clean functional ideal for an overnight stay

Cons:

I emailed 3 days before arriving to ask if dogs cost extra. I did not receive a reply and assumed no charge would be made. The cost charged for 2 dogs was expensive. I am very upset and will not use Holiday Inn again.

Great stay! Would come again.
Pros:

The hotel was easy to find. Reception was welcoming. The staff were welcoming. We went to our room to find there was no air con. The window opened onto the noise of traffic. We were given another room with no issue whatsoever. The second room was better the air con worked and the road noise was less but we didn’t need to open the window. The bedroom was lovely and spacious. All the amenities you would need. The bathroom the same. Both rooms clean. The corridors spelt clean. The bar area was welcoming. My partner wanted to book breakfast so did the night before for a reduced rate. The next day we used the wellness facilities. They were on the smaller side but no complaints. Breakfast was a huge spread with lots of options. Would highly recommend and would stay again. Staff were all friendly.

Cons:

TV didn’t connect to the internet so we couldn’t stream shows. Not that everyone would want to do that.

Generally, very good.

It looked really rough from the outside but inside was very nice, thankfully.

The look of the hotel outside and the potholes in the car park were shocking.

Not worth the price
Pros:

Staff were nice, although understaffed at bar with long waits due to a booking in one of the conference rooms

Cons:

- forgot my toothbrush so asked reception for one but was told it was for premium members only; same goes for request for hot chocolate sachet
- bed not comfortable; could feel the springs and only one towel in the room despite booking for 2 people
- swimming pool very tired and dated, grotty surroundings
- general smell of cigarette smoke in the reception and bar areas.

We will definitely stay here again.
Pros:

The room was quiet, the evening meal was fine, and the staff even accomodated my change request 👍. We were late for breakfast so the bacon was a bit dried but everything else was great.
