Delta Hotels by Marriott Birmingham

Good base for a stay near the city centre. Well run, would definitely stay again.

The hotel could do with a bit of an uplift. Rooms were quite old fashioned. Room was so warm and the air con wasn’t working and we only had three working plugs in a room for four people. The breakfast was also mediocre. The bacon was grey so I didn’t trust the rest of the meat being left out.

Perfect hotel, beautiful and elegant and affordable.

Fresh breakfast

The staff at check in were very friendly. Upon checking into our room it was clear that the air didn't work - the central air had a flashing warning light and the room had been equipped with a plug in fan and a plug in radiator. Luckily we didn't need to use either as we were travelling with a child and the radiator would have been burning hot to the touch and the fan was incredibly noisy so she'd have never slept. Not an issue for us but in hotter or colder weather I'd have wanted a room change. On top of this, when the shower was running water leaked from the ceiling onto you, as if a pipe above had burst, dripping water that had filtered through dirty ceiling and plaster onto the person showering. Again, if our daughter hadn't been asleep when we'd noticed this we'd have asked for a different room. We did inform reception of this in the morning and they did apologise. There were also silverfish in the bathroom. Overall, the hotel is fine, and we didn't pay a lot for our stay. It is a very convenient location but it just felt like the room needed quite a bit of general maintenance.
