Village Hotel Dudley
Dudley, 7.6 miles from New Street. What follows is the practical detail: distances, parking, who it suits and where it does not.
Our verdict
Village Hotel Dudley stands on Castlegate Dr in Dudley, 7.6 miles from New Street. The spa and the grounds are the reason to come, and neither exists at this scale inside the city.
On parking, own car park.
On the pool: a pool and gym, with day passes available.. That comes from guest reports rather than the operator, so confirm it when you book. On the spa: yes. That comes from guest reports rather than the operator, so confirm it when you book.
None of the Birmingham destinations we measure is walkable from here, so plan the car, the train or a taxi into the trip rather than treating this as a base you can step out of.
It holds 7.8 out of 10 on Booking from 1,968 reviews, a normal sample for the city. That sits almost exactly on the average of 8.0 across the other 11 rated properties we compare in the wider West Midlands.
In the pricing snapshot behind this guide it listed at around £81 a night. That is close to the £85 median across the other 13 priced properties we compare in the wider West Midlands. It is a snapshot rather than a live rate, and it will not match your dates.
Its closest neighbour in our selection is Mercure Birmingham West Hotel, 3.9 miles away. Against that one, this hotel has a pool it does not.
It lines up against the Bromsgrove Hotel on almost every field, and two things separate them. This one holds a markedly better guest rating, 4.1 against 3.6, and it comes with a pool and gym that sell day passes. Bromsgrove is cheaper and further south, which only helps if the M42 corridor is where you need to be.
It qualifies for our hotels with parking, cheap hotels and hotels with hot tubs comparisons, which is a reasonable shorthand for what it is good at.
It is not the right answer for everyone, because it is well outside Birmingham, so anything in the city centre means a drive of twenty minutes or more in each direction.
