Rated 4.0 out of 5 by 19
reviewers.
Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by 53Gordon Staff were friendly and helpful we left unhappy.
The staff were the best part of our stay and were friendly and helpful.
Several factors spoilt our stay.
The entrance to the hotel is not clear. We missed the entrance twice.
Our room was situated on the 1st floor immediately below the recycling bins. Not a problem except bar staff emptied bottles late at night and early in the morning, waking us on both occassions.
The Fire Alarm went off very late one evening. We were told this was because someone used a shower without closing the door ???
The biggest gripe was the lack of bath towels. Only one was provided and despite being provided with a second after complaint only one was again provided on the second day.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Tom133 A good stay with a couple of pitfalls
We stayed at the Holiday Inn Star City in March 2013.
The hotel is situated very well, directly opposite (and within walking distance of) Star City, and has great road links to Birmingham city centre.
The staff at the hotel were friendly, and check-in was brief and welcoming.
We were informed that the lift in the hotel was out of order (rare that a hotel only has 1 lift), and our room was situated 3 floors up...this was the main qualm of the stay.
We had booked a twin room but when we got to the room it was instead a double...and after walking all the way to the room, we didn't fancy walking back down again to try and rectify the situation so made-do.
Breakfast was faultless considering it was covered in the price of the room which was already one of the most competitive rates available.
Overall a 4/5 from me...would happily stay again if I was in the area...just hope that the lift is working on our next visit! :-)

Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by Whistleblower OK... but feels dated/not up to HI Express standards
OK... but out-dated feel to rooms & dining area.
Needs updating!

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Indie great offer through O2 priority moments
I chose this hotel because as an O2 customer there was a limited time offer of 'buy one night get another night free'.
Ordinarily I don't think I would have paid the price.
The room was clean, the staff were pleasant, the breakfast was average. I would stay again should the rate be lower or on an offer again.

Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by Villafan Good luck with getting in at night!
Checking into this hotel, I knew the location having been raised in Birmingham so new it wasn't n a great area but that didn't put me off.
The reception staff were fantastic in helping me and were very quik to respnd when i discovered that the shower and hair dryer were broken.
I went out in the evening to catch up with some friends but when I returned, the gate was locked and the taxi couldn't get in. Another taxi pulled up with 2 women in it and all of us tried ringing the number we were signposted to call but to no avail. The number was constantly engaged. We let the taxis go as we were being charged the longer they waited and were left to try and get in. After about 30 minutes of trying, we were let in.
The night staff ( one bloke sitting on a chair in the office), didn't even get up out of his seat. I can only assume he was on the phone leaving guests unable to call to get in.
That night it was freezing and thank god I had signal, battery and credit on my phone. if not, how would i have got in? I didn't have a coat as I didn't think I needed one so was very cold and wet as it started to rain. It's lo not the kind of area you want to be stranded in!
I did tell reception when I checked out nd he said he would pass it on. No apology though. I won't be staying there again.
