Have just arrived back from having a weekend in Birmingham with friends. Didn't want to be constrained by hotel times, so decided to stay in the Burne Jones House. I was unsure of what to expect as a result of the mixed reviews on this site, but it was only for a weekend so we thought it would be ok.... More

Stayed here a few times and was mixed - cleanliness not good and facilities/fixtures dated. First visit was so bad had to complain, and then subsequent visits were mixed. Great old building, but with it comes some difficulties. Although I probably won't stay there again I would like to say that the customer service staff/duty manager were great and the... More

Plumbing made long whining, clanging noise everytime toilet was flushed. Kept awake all... More

Location was excellent for the city centre and for access to the New Street railway station. The apartments do not have reception staff, but the code entry system to... More

I like the concept here, but they have a lot to do to improve on it. I'm not the target audience, either, but that doesn't mean they can't take some of my criticisms. The rooms themselves are quite nice and clean. The kitchens are well appointed. The immediate area is quite nice with plenty of shops. Once you get out... More

I originally wanted to book a room at this apartment through booking.com, but the room me and my partner wanted to stay in was sold out, so instead we booked a room at the city quarters shaftesbury apartment in which this apartment and Burne jones house are under the same company. A few days before we were due to check... More
