Castle Bromwich Hall, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western

We were very happy with our stay at Castle Bromwich Hall the accommodation was warm and clean, the bed was very comfortable, the towels were spotless, parking was easy, but the shower didn't work properly as the controls were loose and the water was only lukewarm, the plug in the sink didn't work, and the bathroom window was rotted and needed to be replaced as the mold was bad, cleaning it would not have made much difference. We only stayed one night so that was fine. Attention should be paid to these points as it is off-putting as it should only need a good plumber to put the bathroom right and a new window, otherwise, Fabulous,

Amazing old building, nice decor lovely grounds. Room was nice but small. Bed was comfortable but small and shower was lovely.

Such a lovely hotel! The family room was fantastic as had a twin bedroom off the main bedroom. So nice to be able to watch TV while kids are going to sleep in their own room, rather than be stuck sitting in the dark when all 4 of us are sharing one bedroom. The hotel and grounds are very well kept, with a feeling of grandeur. We all slept well in really comfy beds and enjoyed a great buffet breakfast and stroll around the grounds in the morning. A credit to the owners and friendly staff. The hotel is well located and we stayed after visiting Winter Funland at the NEC. In the evening, we and had a short trip to Star City a few miles up the road, for a meal and game of indoor golf.

Staff and service was excellent, the only bad thing was the people in the room above us were very noisy till about 3 in the morning. It was a shame. They spoilt our stay.

I didn't want a city hotel and wanted easy secure parking. Nice and quiet. Grounds look nice but as on business, no chance to look around.

some staff were friendly, other's were not . when my wife sat down for breakfast, there was broken glass right where she sat under the table .if someone was wearing flip flops they would have cut there feet as the table cloth cover the glass . obviously they didn't do there cleaning there properly...

We stayed for 2 nights. The room was comfortable and clean, but the stairs to our room were not so. The stairs to room 304 had obviously not been hoovered for a very long time and the spindles on the stairway were really thick with dust. We were shocked that no one from staff or management had noticed! We ate in the restaurant on both nights , the food the first night we excellent, but not so the second night. We had goat cheese for starters the first night which was beautifully presented and delicious so decided to have it again the second night, however whoever presented it obviously could not be bothered with presentation but it was still tasty. The Chicken Tikka contained 5 pieces of chicken was thick and too creamy, not like a Tikka at all - tasteless, so for dessert Chocolate Fondant was ordered for it to be just an overcooked hard chocolate sponge, no chocolate sauce in the middle- we returned it. The waitress in the restaurant was Courtney and we have to say she is an asset to you, very pleasant and obliging. The breakfasts were excellent and the rest of the hotel was very clean and pleasing as were the staff. We loved the hotel but felt this needed mentioning as it was let down by this.

Everything could have been perfect, however one major issue in the auxiliary building where I stayed the room has very bad damp , I suspect hidden damp/mould. The reason for this I suspect is two, one carpeted throughout without sufficient area for shoes to dry while walking into lobby areas, two and the worst is the bathrooms have fans that either do not operate or dont operate enough, so there is a awful smell in what is a very clean looking bathroom. If they get the bathroom fans changed to ones that go on immediately as entering a bathroom and also stay on for a lenghty period after wards there will be better air circulation. Two remove carpets as I suspect damn has turned to unseen mould which gives the poor smell and three have areas lengthen for shoes to dry while entering lobbies - matts; laminate flooring etc. Doing this will allow the property to breathe sufficiently. I explained the smell and was given a different room, the other room had the same smell but not as bad. When I spoke to reception they explained the smell is due to the building being 400 years old, although there is a smell due to the buildings age, the smell is not the same as the smell from prolonged wet areas which dry slowly and allow for hidden mould, Apart from this the service was excellent. I had a 4 night stay and managed to go elsewhere for 2 nights instead.
