Holiday Inn Express Birmingham - Snow Hill by IHG
Birmingham city centre, around 15 minutes on foot from New Street. What follows is the practical detail: distances, parking, who it suits and where it does not.
Our verdict
Holiday Inn Express Birmingham - Snow Hill by IHG sits on Snow Hill Plaza in Birmingham city centre, which puts it 0.50 miles from New Street. New Street is around 15 minutes on foot and the Bullring around 15 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 20 minutes on foot.
On sleeping configuration: larger family rooms.. That comes from guest reports rather than the operator, so confirm it when you book.
Within about fifteen minutes on foot: Birmingham Children's Hospital (5 min), Birmingham New Street Station (15 min) and the Bullring (15 min). That combination is what you are really booking here.
It holds 8 out of 10 on Booking from 7,922 reviews, an unusually large sample. That is 0.3 below the 8.3 average across the other 22 rated properties we compare in Birmingham city centre.
In the pricing snapshot behind this guide it listed at around £73 a night. That is about £30 below the £103 median across the other 23 priced properties we compare in Birmingham city centre. It is a snapshot rather than a live rate, and it will not match your dates.
Its closest neighbour in our selection is Aparthotel Birmingham (Snowhill), 50 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, family hotels and best city centre hotels comparisons, which is a reasonable shorthand for what it is good at.
The main trade-off is that there is no hotel car park, so a driver needs one of the public garages around Snow Hill Plaza and the walk that comes with it.
