Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre by IHG
Hotel states it has on site parking which is true, however, only offers 6 parking spaces and therefore you will need to park in the multi storey car park which costs £17.50 per day. Breakfast options are very limited, I would recommend avoiding breakfast in the hotel and getting something in Birmingham ...
