Corus Hotel Solihull

“Would use again”

We were looking for a reasonably priced hotel for an overnight stay near family. The room was a good size and clean/comfortable. The reception staff were pleasant on both arrival and departure. There was some noise during the night but this was one inconsiderate guest which can happen anywhere. We didn't bother with breakfast as we thought it was overpriced and we could have breakfast with family.

“Good value for money”

We have always been satisfied with our stays at the Corus. Staff courteous, hotel comfortable and a fun bar in the evenings. My only complaint is that the bar food is poor quality.

“Corus Solihull”

Service of the bar and reception staff was excellent and made up for the fact that the hotel is a little tired and definitely in need of the refurbishment that it is undergoing.

“So in need of upgrading...”

We checked in after 2200hrs hence too tired to do an overall close inspection. We had to check out early next day : 1/ Requested Double bed but given a family room of double and 2 single bed. (a bonus I guess) 2/ Curtain track came off easily hence need upgrading 3/ stained carpet - wished I brought my slipper ! 4/ iron board - very well used/stained conditioned (not tested) 5/ bath tub - enamel came off hence a few patches of black marked. 6/Ugly plasters repairs on the wall - very unsightly. A typical budget room. Externally the hotel looks presentable perhaps had its glorious moment. The swimming pool, sauna and steam room are all very well used. I might return if condition improves.

“There's a holiday in express down the street that is 100 times better!”

Staff was not good, neither was the hotel condition in general. After a few days, I needed to spend the night again in Birmingham and I found a Holiday Inn Express down the street on Stratford road for the same price that was excellent. That Holiday Inn Express is not listed in Expedia though :(

“CORUS HOTEL SOLIHULL”

Hotel vétuste, acceuil déplorable. Ne surtout pas y aller.

“You should list this hotel, it is appalling zand damages your reputation”

Appalling reception and poorly furnished rooms , a dump
