Bloc Hotel Birmingham

The location is excellent being in the Jewellery Quarter and close to the City Centre. Although the basic rooms are very small, they are well fitted, clean and comfortable with great technology and good sound insulation. Therefore I slept well and found the climate control to be very easy to use and responsive. The staff are friendly and helpful. However, if you want breakfast, a kettle and the usual trappings of a luxury hotel, this isn’t for you, but then you should expect to pay about twice times as much!

Stayed here for a week for work. Great location, nice rooms, the staff were friendly and helpful, what more can you want?I thought the app to control your room was pretty cool. I could turn on the air con 10 mins before I got back!

We really like the Bloc, nice and handy when stopping in the Jewellery Quarter. The room was nice and clean and staff very pleasant and helpful. There are several discounts available with local businesses, we ate in the Italian restaurant around the corner and received a discount there.

Great concept and works just as advertised. Easy to check-in/out, the room was immaculate, the bed was comfortable and a lovely finish to the bathroom. It isn't the biggest room I've stayed in. But definitely makes the most of the space and is ideal for a short trip away for a few days. I would recommend it if you're looking for a great modern place to stay in the Jewelry Quarter of Birmingham.

Pluses: very comfy bed, large fluffy towels, very clean, very quiet. Pleasant staff. Cost effective.Negatives: Juggling luggage while trying to use an app to access room/lift was tricky. I also found the app not very responsive when adjusting volume on tv. Set the aircon using the app to 18 degrees for a cool sleep, however it kicked back in shortly after and started heating the room again! Disappointed that for all its tech, the hotel's small rooms don't have a USB, so I had to borrow a plug from reception. I'm not keen on monsoon showers, so I used the hand held, husband used the monsoon, but everything in the bathroom still gets a soaking whichever you use. toilet and loo roll included. Floor stays wet so if you get up for the loo in the night you get wet feet. Glass door to bathroom is not sufficiently etched for privacy.

The rooms are small, especially their wetroom (combined toilet and shower area). It's not very well thought out as you are guaranteed to get wet feet if you go to the loo after showering.It was clean and comfortable otherwise. I'm all for innovations such as room key and controls on their website link you are sent. However this is not appropriate as the only light switch control (short of the sneaky bedside switches).

The location of the hotel is great. Tha staff is really helpfull and smiling all the time. Rooms are clean and provided with good equipment but as can be seen through photos on the hotel website, rooms are small, specially bathrooms. Shower space and toilet space crushed. Thus, if you had a shower, do not put socks on till you leave the room. Because wet socks suck;)

My husband had booked us a stay here in the city and everything about it was perfect. Luca was polite, well mannered and mirrored that of a 5 star Luxury establishment. Will be returning.

An Amazing find!I stayed here whilst on a work trip and will be returning.The rooms were very clean, felt airy, and all items within (bedding, TV, toiletries) were to a high spec. The staff were friendly and accomodatingI had a great nights sleep!I literally cannot fault this hotel!

This is my second time staying at a Bloc Hotel and I must say, they are fantastic. The service is always great, the rooms are modern, clean, comfortable with some great tech. Overall, excellent value for money and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bloc to others.
