A luxurious city-centre classic
For pure city-centre theatre, this luxurious hotel is set on Colmore Row in a landmark building that’s been turning heads since 1879. Step outside and you’re in the thick of it: St Philip’s Cathedral and its gardens are minutes away, the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery is close for culture fixes, and the city’s arcades are perfect for indie-shopping detours. Want a bigger wander? Follow the canals for waterside strolls, book a show, or hop over to the Jewellery Quarter for bars and brilliant browsing. New Street Station’s nearby too, so day trips are always on the table.
Back at the hotel, luxury details do the heavy lifting. The showstopping Grand Ballroom brings old-school glamour by the bucketload, there’s a private gym you can book for quick workouts, and the team can help line up taxis, tickets and the kind of reservations that make you feel smug. Food and drink is a headline act: Isaac’s brasserie serves British comfort with French flair, while Madeleine Bar is your chandelier-lit spot for cocktails and afternoon tea (Wednesday to Sunday). Start with breakfast, spend the day exploring, then come back for a nightcap that becomes “just one more”. Birmingham’s buzzing. This is your elegant pause button.
