I stayed at Arden before a flight, it was close to the airport and suited my needs for somewhere to sleep. The check in staff were helpful and processed everything smoothly.
We chose this hotel, about a 30-minute drive from home, for a one-night stay so the kids could go swimming. They were so excited before we even left. After checking in, we rushed to the pool, only to be told that children weren't allowed after 6 PM and could only use it after 9 AM the next morning. However, check-out was at 11 AM, which left very little time.
So, I contacted Trip.com customer service to request a late check-out. During the first call, the hotel said they would charge £10 per hour for late check-out. We expressed our dissatisfaction, and thanks to Trip.com's proactive coordination, the hotel finally agreed to a free two-hour late check-out for both rooms. The kids had a fantastic time the next morning, which was a huge plus.
The hotel is newly renovated, and the overall facilities are quite good for a UK hotel. Dinner was also decent, though the steak was a bit disappointing. Luckily, the waitstaff were very friendly and didn't charge us for it. IHG's service philosophy was generally well-reflected.
However, the hotel seemed a bit understaffed. There were only two people at the front desk, so checking in required a bit of a wait. After check-in, no one showed us to our rooms, and the layout was a bit confusing, making it easy to get lost. I hope the hotel can improve in this area in the future. Also, it would be even more appealing if they could add some family-friendly room types.
Overall experience was good, I have been a few times but the room we was in wasn’t the best the WiFi was weak so we had to connect to our phone data and the shower curtains were dirty definitely needed replacing.
We had a fantastic stay overnight. fabulous staff willing to help very caring and understanding very helpful all the time we was there. breakfast was amazing. I’m very wonderfully presented those everything you wanted and all nicely displayed and absolutely wonderfully clean and the staff was great so Wood come back thank you. Thank you for everything bye-bye.
Reasonable room rates, room clean , water hot in bath/shower-food was extremely tasty, and excellent value for money for both evening meal and breakfast.
Weather was hot and only improvement would have been to keep complimentary water/juice in foyer topped up as no cool water or drinks available in room.
The hotel is conveniently located (on the way from London to Birmingham) and we found the staff to
all be very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable. And we had a really good breakfast too. My only slight criticism is that we didn't get our Doubletree warm cookie on arrival - but we check-in after midnight! We would definitely stay again.
I’ve been in this hotel for like 4-5 times, i would recommend, It’s quiet, comfy, the rooms are clean…however there’s been times where i asked to change rooms since the heating wasn’t working and cause one room had a slight broken window and this was during January…would’ve froze to death. There’s rooms with a large bed.. and other rooms have like the standard double size bed. I give this like 4/5.
This was my third stay and all was fine - there was a brief power cut and the manager got lights back on ASAP. Only down side was I was given a room on motorway side view three times in a row.
Very Good

JJeff & LynLovely overnight stay.
Hotel was really busy with a large party but the staff looked after us really well.
Not a reflection on the hotel but they booked a taxi to pick us up and the taxi firm were totally useless. Having waited twenty minutes past the scheduled time, we called an Uber which was there in five minutes.
Overall, this is a great hotel which we have stayed at previously and will do so again.
GGuest UserUnfortunately, this was a disappointing stay. The reception, bar and restaurant are the best part of this hotel. The lifts were slow, corridors outside the room smelt awful and room was poor. There was extensive water damage to the bottom of the bathroom door, dated furniture and one of the two beds was sat on the floor in the middle despite there being wheels underneath each side. There was pink/red staining on the curtains and we couldn’t see out of the window due to the condensation. The decoration, plug sockets were good and there was a hair dryer, iron and ironing board, mini fridge (empty) and a safe. The shower room was well presented, there were plenty of pillows and towels. The room temperature was comfortable. More bar staff were needed at busy times and all staff encountered were pleasant and friendly. Strange security late at night but understood why this was needed.
NNaiyoudangaojiabingjilingI was genuinely surprised by how convenient the hotel's location was. It's just 20-30 meters from the train station, making it incredibly easy to reach. We could walk to every attraction, completely eliminating the need for public transportation. Chinatown being right next door was fantastic, offering endless dining options to suit all our family's tastes. The hotel itself was very quiet and comfortable, and it felt incredibly secure. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with our stay!

GGuest UserMy stay was so convenient for my travel. The hotel staff were really nice and friendly, the room was great, clean and their shower was perfect! The breakfast I paid for was good too and overall if I was to come back to see a concert at the O2 I would happily stay there again. Thank you guys!
GGuest UserThe lady at the reception that was so so lovely, it was the hottest day of the year and we complained about the AC, she quickly changed our room, when we had further concerns and called reception, she came up speedily and provided warm assistance, sure value for my money.
GGuest UserGood location close to M42, free parking onsite, easy access to reception check in was straightforward lifts to all floors and the room was perfect clean and warm.
self service for buffet breakfast good variety for every taste. would recommend this hotel to friends and family.
SSfrixelReally unsatisfied with the cleanliness of the room, there was a huge amount of dust anywhere that I was sneezing continuously.
Also, the most disgusting thing were the bedsheets, stained with yellow spots! I asked for a new set of bedsheets and the reception gave them to me and I had to put them on, because there was no one of the cleaning team to do it.
Very very very unsatisfied.
JJSTWComfort Inn Location is great, just next to Birmingham New Street train station and within 3 mins walking distance to Birmingham China town, so plenty of restaurants and cafe surround this hotel.
The only downside is the shower area, the curtain was short and water spilling everywhere when take shower.
Overall I would rate 4.0 for Comfort Inn due to excellent location and reasonable price

HHangzhouwuyanzu1427The service attitude was great, but room service might not pick up the phone when called. The environment is also very good, the room is spacious, and the facilities are complete. The location is very easy to find. I recommend staying here; it's great value for money. Remember to ask the front desk for toothbrushes and slippers.
