Edgbaston and Hagley Road, around 15 minutes on foot from New Street. What follows is the practical detail: distances, parking, who it suits and where it does not.
You will find Hampton by Hilton Birmingham Broad Street on Broad St, Edgbaston and Hagley Road, 0.66 miles from New Street. New Street is around 15 minutes on foot and the Bullring around 20 minutes on foot, so the centre is walkable without planning transport.
Arriving by train, it is around 15 minutes on foot from the platforms. For an arena night it is around 10 minutes on foot.
Within about fifteen minutes on foot: Broad Street (5 min), the ICC and Symphony Hall (8 min), Utilita Arena Birmingham (10 min) and Birmingham New Street Station (15 min). That combination is what you are really booking here.
It holds 8.1 out of 10 on Booking from 8,802 reviews, an unusually large sample. That sits almost exactly on the average of 8.2 across the other 9 rated properties we compare in Edgbaston and Hagley Road.
In the pricing snapshot behind this guide it listed at around £75 a night. That is about £29 below the £104 median across the other 9 priced properties we compare in Edgbaston and Hagley Road. It is a snapshot rather than a live rate, and it will not match your dates.
Its closest neighbour in our selection is Premier Inn Birmingham City Centre Broad Street hotel, 100 metres away, and the two are close enough on price and rating that the deciding factor is whichever is cheaper on your dates.
It qualifies for our cheap hotels and last-minute hotels comparisons, which is a reasonable shorthand for what it is good at.
Where it is weaker: there is no hotel car park, so a driver needs one of the public garages around Broad St and the walk that comes with it.
Practical details checked: September 2026
No hotel car park. No car park of its own. Guests report several nearby garages at roughly half the hotel's own rate.
Parking is one of the most searched questions about this hotel, which is why it has its own section rather than a line in a facilities list.

Distances are straight-line, calculated from each property's own coordinates. Walking times are derived from those distances with an allowance for street routing, so treat them as indicative for comparing hotels against each other rather than as measured route times.
Booking’s own amenity list for this property, recorded as published. It is not part of what we verified above.
A facility missing from this list means we did not establish it, not that the hotel lacks it. We do not fill gaps with assumptions.
In context
Positions are worked out across all 85 properties we compare, using straight-line distance from coordinates and the price band each property normally sits in.
