Found the hotel eventually after first stopping at the other Ramada... However by around 6.30pm their parking garage was full and the overflow parking area belongs to another store opposite. Apparently they have permission to use it at weekends, there was no charge - but it was quite a squeeze to get the car in! Short walk to the city... More

If you like a rock hard bed and an extractor fan in the bathroom that comes on at random times, including in the middle of the night, (apparently this is hotel policy) then this is the hotel for you. The beds were made up with just 2 pillows, looking in the hotel information leaflet provided in each room it states... More

The hotel was very modern looking. the rooms were clean and quite. There wasnt much space to hang our clothes but it wasnt a real issue. The parking as a problem, they had a carpark around the back but it was expensive. we did mangage to park five mins away on a road. Its your standard large company hotel, nothing... More

We stayed one night on a Cadbury World break; for the price the hotel is very clean, very central, and considering the location we found it extremely quiet. The breakfast buffet is good, a wide choice and good quality. Our room didn't have a very nice outlook, but it is central Birmingham and we weren't expecting it to! The room... More

Stayed here for one night over the May bank holiday weekend as part of their Murder Mystery night package. Room on 4th floor did not have the most eye catching views of Birmingham and was smaller than expected. TV only had basic channels and only one regular tea bag was provided. Had to go down to reception to request extra... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your stay at the Hotel. I am sorry that it was not as pleasurable for you as it could have been. I am also disappointed that you will not return and will look elsewhere. It is a good point you make about the 50p for pillows - it is... More

A very clean and tidy hotel within reach of all Birmingham city centre has to offer. Rooms are spotless, we asked for extra pillows and these were on our bed when we returned to our room in the evening. As floors are laminated the noise levels are slightly higher than in a carpeted hotel however far more hygienic. Soap and... More

We needed a place to stay in Birmingham. The Ramada Encore offered a reasonably priced solution but of course not comparable to the standards of RAMADA Worldwide. Clearly there is a Huge gap between the two. No complains though, simple, clean and cheap !
