Premier Inn Birmingham City Centre (New St Station)

Location is perfect. It is in the city center. Next door is Grand Central shopping mall and Bullring. And the New Street Train station is below Bullring. Chinatown is only 10 mins walk away. We have booked a 2 single-bed room and the beds are very narrow and soft mattresses. However the room is clean. You are required to inform the reception to have the room clean up which is a bit strange. And the reception doesn't usually have someone attend. You will need to ring the service bell in order to have someone to help. The key cards sometimes is a problem. The reception could only issue one key card when we checked in. And we only be able to issue the 2nd card the next day. I think it might be the problem with the system.

Birmingham Premier Inn (New Street Station) is located above the Birmingham New Street Station, next to the McDonalds. It might be a bit confusing to locate the hotel when you reached the station. After you exited from the gantry at the Birmingham New Street station, you will be able to see escalators located in front of the Tickets station. Go up the escalator and you will see a lot of shops e.g. Jo Malone, Tesco Express and restaurants such as Pho, Mrs Chew Kitchen. Once you are at the 2nd level (New Street Station), locate the Jo Malone shop. When you are outside the Jo Malone shop, you shall be able to se a clothes boutique known as Fat Face. Walk towards Fat Face and on your left, you should be able to see a walkway leading outside. Walk towards the walkway and you shall see Mini Sou on your right side. Once you are outside of the building, you will see McDonald on your right. Premier Inn hotel's entrance is just next to McDonald's entrance. Location of Birmingham Premier Inn (New Street) is fantastic. Despite there were reviewers that there might be some beggars but they did not bother me when I was there. Taxis are a bit tricky and right outside the hotel, there are tram railways and that means that most of the times, cars will generally not be around that area. If you want to get a taxi, you will need to walk to the main street where the major deparmental stores are, e.g. BullRing Birmingham. I would stay at Premier Inn again if I am in Birmingham area.

Location is very convenient which is good for travelling via trains in the nearby Birmingham New Street station

Good location. It's just next to the train station and close to shopping area. Lots of restaurants nearby. Good breakfast.
