The Gables Hotel, Birmingham Airport – Hotel near airport in Bickenhill

For my very short stay of 8 hours, the hotel was surprisingly quiet despite its location near the airport runway. The next door restaurant was a great find with friendly staff and reasonably priced food. The portable heaters in the room didn't help much with the temperature. The service was pleasant and helpful, but there was confusion about the payment. Overall, a decent choice for quick stays close to the airport for the price.

The hotel was a bit overpriced for room-only accommodation and lacked basic amenities in the rooms like a kettle, cups, or even a glass for water. The vertical blinds didn't block out early morning light effectively. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and very helpful, even taking guests to their family's restaurant after a festive night. The location was a bit confusing to find the bus stop to the airport, but it was close to the NEC, which was convenient. The dining options were pricey for what was offered, and the possibility of food upon arrival was misleading. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel provided a fantastic price for late check-ins and early departures with lovely, accommodating staff.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were cozy but had some issues, while the service was top-notch. The location was convenient but not ideal due to noise. Dining options were limited but reflected in the price. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel offers a very clean stay with modern decor, although some room maintenance is needed. The service was polite and accommodating, located conveniently near the airport and conference venues. Dining was basic but adequate, and the location was central to attractions and restaurants, despite being tricky to find initially.

I stayed at a hotel that, despite being on a road with heavy traffic all night, offered a warm, tidy, and very clean room, although basic and lacking some essential items like a hairdryer and bedside light. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The location was good for my needs, close to the NEC arena, but the noise from the nearby dual carriageway was a drawback. The dining experience, although adequate, required an extra payment for breakfast. Overall, a budget-friendly option with some minor drawbacks.
