What guests think

Across reviews of Hilton Birmingham Metropole, travellers highlight its convenient location for the NEC, Resorts World and the airport, generally friendly staff, and a well-liked breakfast, while also noting mixed experiences with facilities, rooms and value.

Facilities draw mixed feedback: the pool and gym are appreciated but can be closed or require paid, pre-booked sessions, lifts are sometimes out of service, and parking and bar prices feel high. Service sees recurring reports of very busy check-ins, long queues, and occasional rudeness or room allocation errors. Rooms vary in size and modernity, with multiple mentions of ineffective heating or air conditioning and weaker soundproofing near lifts or external areas. Overall, expect an event-focused base with lively crowds and some inconsistencies.

Great location, rooms at a decent price, and everything else is super expensive. A pint of beer, a single Bailey's, and a coke was 50p shy of £20! Parking was £14 per 24 hours And this was the first hotel I can recall where residents of the hotel had to pay extra to use the pool. £10 per person £20 family) for 90 mins. While the rooms, decor etc were good, the cost of everything else seemed a little over the top.

Check was fine. Arrived in our room and no water which is a given in most hotels. Just a basic couple of tea bags and coffee sachets. They did send two cans of water when advised. Also disappointing to have to pay a further £10 each to use the pool facilities. Pretty poor when we had paid £170 for one night

Really disappointed that hotel guests have to pay extra to use the pool. We stayed as a family of four and it would have cost an additional £40 to use the pool! We weren’t made aware of this before booking and felt completely ripped off.

Lifts regularly break down, feels old and run down, keys stop working if you have a charge on your room (they don't tell you this at check in), the bar feels understaffed at times, the rooms are always warm as the aircon is sketchy. The staff are all super friendly, and easy to talk to. The breakfast is AMAZING. Good location for the NEC.

There was no warmth to the hotel. The front of house staff just seemed very transactional. The room itself was fine but it could have done with a thorough clean. There was a dust web above our bed on the ceiling for the two nights we stayed showing that the cleanliness wasn’t really up to scratch. The pool was okay but the changing rooms were horrid. Would class it more as a 3 star.

Checked in here to go to the NEC. We stayed here before and it was very nice - not this time. The corridors were very tired, damaged peeling paint, generally very shabby overall. Our bathroom stank of stale urine so we asked to be moved. Housekeeping was sent to clean the bathroom but I still wanted to be moved as if it had been cleaned so badly initially what else was dirty? We were eventually moved to another room which had been sprayed so heavily with air freshener that it gave me a splitting headache and started to trigger an asthma attack in my husband. Rang again for another room and was told all rooms would smell like that, apparently not, the first one stank of old pee! The woman on the phone was less than helpful, I told her if the air freshener in every room was the case then we couldn’t stay there as their products were making us ill and I demanded a refund, which was agreed. We booked into the Crowne Plaza over the road and had a very pleasant stay.

I've stayed here before but this time I was allocated a corner room with very little wardrobe space. No fridge again. The air conditioning didn't work to warm the room up but supplied with an electric fan heater. The problem was that the heater and the kettle tripped out the electrics plunging the room into darkness. Maintenance man came an told us about the problem. An unsatisfactory stay.

The hotel seems a bit old (lift slow, pool not very clean), but yet it is still very good compared to the average ones. The beds are comfortable, the room was very clean overall. The breakfast is good but lack a little bit of sweet choices. The people were nice. Overall it was a good stay but I was hoping a little something more from an Hilton, probably mainly because the building feels old.

The hotel was clean and had everything you needed. Good location for walking to the BP Pulse arena. The room was comfortable, well maintained and clean. It was nice and quiet considering it is a big hotel and busy, we didn't hear any noise from other rooms. The bathroom fixtures were a little old and cranky e.g. the taps on the bath were difficult to use and the toilet made a noise for about 5 minutes after flushing. The breakfast was exceptional with a lot of choice.

The room was OK, large bed albeit quite firm, no mini bar or fridge in the room which was disappointing. The shower cubicle was small, I struggled to turn around in there!! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good but the quality of some food items could have been better. The bar was disappointing, we'd have been here every night, however the service was very slow and the fact that they stop serving cocktails at 8 pm meant that we went elsewhere for drinks, there appeared to be no management at the bar and a significant lack of experience, I ended up paying £37 for 2 G&T's which were the first and last drinks that we had there!! Overall OK.

The best part of £200 for what is essentially Hilton's basic-tier room is very steep. The room was simple, but modern. Kingsize bed, 'balcony' overlooking the carpark (lake to the right). TV remote wasn't the easiest to use. Bathroom looked dated - with just a basic, fixed shower head in a bath, and there seemed to be no way of adjusting the temperature. As it's near the airport it is normal for guests to be walking the corridors during the early hours - yet the doors offer zero level of soundproofing. We heard guests talking with staff, and greeting each other from around 5am.

Good hotel, but very poor check-in experience Our stay at this otherwise nice hotel began with a very disappointing check-in. Despite arriving at 3:30 p.m., our room was still not ready. Nadia at the front desk was rude and dismissive, telling us to wait 10 minutes with no apology. When we returned after 10–15 minutes, she again responded rudely, saying it had only been eight minutes. A few minutes later, she refused to serve us altogether, forcing us to rejoin another queue and wait an additional 20 minutes. As a Hotels.com Gold member and frequent business traveller, I have NEVER experienced such unprofessional behaviour, especially at a Hilton property. Fortunately, Abud at the second desk was courteous, apologised and offered us three drink vouchers as compensation. Aside from the check-in issue, the rest of our stay was pleasant. The breakfast and pool staff were friendly and professional, and the facilities were good. Overall, I can recommend this hotel—but I strongly hope management addresses the behaviour of certain front desk staff to ensure all guests are treated with respect.

We arrived at 3.30pm - to then stand in a queue for nearly 2 hours to get checked in - to then be told our room wasnt ready! We were going out for Dinner at 6pm. Eventually we were allocated a different room to the one we booked - with a lot less space for the 2 days. Outside our room for a whole day was a pile of dirty laundry - a duvet in the corridor etc -

Unfortunately i felt that this hotel did not live up to the Hilton standard. We arrived late afternoon and found that we needed to wait 20 minutes to check in, the line of people wanting to check in was long. On check in, we were not informed that the restaurant was closed due to a private function, and found that we could only eat at the bar together with 200 other guests. This automatically brings the standard down, as the staff could not professionally cope. We ended up leaving and walking 500m down to another hotel to eat. The rooms were large and comfortable, but the bathroom was ridiculously small (talk about swinging a cat here you couldn't even swing a toothbrush). The shower had old difficult to align taps, meaning that the shower was either to hot or to cold. Overall a very average stay, quite disappointing for a Hilton

Awful check in experience - they did not believe that I had already paid for the room. As it was busy, I felt rushed to pay and then had to be refunded when I showed my bank statement. Another guest was allocated the same room by the hotel and entered while I changing. Our room key then didn't work and staff hadn't noted my car registration or that I'd paid for parking.

We were very disappointed that The Hilton Metropole had no reservation for us despite us having an email confirmation from Hotels.com showing our room had been paid for a year ago. Several staff looked at their monitors but could not find the reservation we then had to move around the corner to speak to someone else which was quite embarrassing. They did assure us that they would be able to find us a room but it was a bit uncomfortable.

Most of it was fine but the dining was awful. The restaurant was closed for a private function (unknown/unmentioned at time of booking) so I had room service. I tried to ring down for it but there was no menu and the phone didn't work. There was a QR code stuck on the mirror instead. I paid £48 for a salad, a chicken curry dish and sparkling water. There as a £6 tray charge. However the food arrived in paper boxes, in a carrier bag. No tray, no plate, no service really. The delivery man was brusque. It would be much more in keeping with the hotel to have a proper room service menu, on real paper not a QR code. Please present the food on real crockery.

Took over an hour to check in then was given the wrong room so had to be relocated took another 30 mins. The bathroom was extremely old fashioned with a shower over a bath. A massive crack in the sink, the plug didnt work, you cant see it in the photo but the crack is ALL the way along from the top of the sink to the plug hole. the bath had patches of repair all over it so much so it did not make you want to use it. We ordered room service as we were just so knackered. Both ordered fish and chips came to £48, arrived in cardboard boxes and nothing to really write home about, 5/10 Id say. The pool last timing was 9.00pm. We were looking forward to a swim but it took us so long to check in and then move we didnt have time! We paid £219 and were so looking forward to an upper class overnight stay, it is The Hilton afterall, we would of be better off staying in the Premier Inn for less than half the price. Very very disappointed!
