Staff are lovely, rooms are very clean and tidy. Asked for extra tea and coffee. I was given free hot chocolate as soon as we arrived. Ignore the bad reviews, car park is pay and display. Free for blue badge holders.
"Unacceptable in 2025" This hotel needs desperately bringing up to modern standards. Let's start with the good bits: The check in staff were great and the location is central. That's unfortunately where it ends. I was not expecting a state of the art room, but this really is below par. The room itself was small with an uncomfortable bed, pillows and an en-suite that needed upgrading. The bedding and carpet was clean but there were cobwebs and the remote was disgusting. It was poorly designed too with no lamps (only two bright spotlights other than the main light), no plug sockets by the bed and a heating system that looks like it belongs in the Black Country Living Museum. To top it all off, my room was noisy as it was next to the service yard. It's not even cheap! £90.75 for single occupancy with parking (no breakfast) on a Sunday night is top whack. It could be a good boutique hotel but it has been seriously neglected by Best Western. Only stay here if there are no other options.
Great location in the heart of Lichfield and with easy car parking off Bird St car park. The rooms are rather tired but what do you expect, it's a Best Western. If you want a hotel in Lichfield, you've got the George or the Premier Inn. Similar prices. George is better located, Premier is more modern.
Excellent location. Staff started off as uncaring but in a crisis, more accommodating. Food, at best, OK. Hotel I suggest can only be described as acceptable, but priced above it's class.
I was booked in here for a family wedding. My room was on the first floor facing onto Bird Street. The room smelled of damp. Opposite was a bar/club that didn't close until 2am and people arguing outside after that had closed, followed by a street cleaning machine, bin wagon and delivery trucks from 4.15am. I had hardly any sleep all weekend due to the external noise emitting into my room.
We didn't stay in the rooms,just popped in for a bite at lunchtime. Food was lovely and fresh and tasty. We had mushroom soup,steak sandwich with fries and nachos, absolutely delicious. We've been before and had sandwiches, which were also 10/10. Lovely atmosphere as well, nice and warm on a cold day,very clean and well decorated.
Good experience. Comfortable, large room and nice breakfast. It’s an older, traditional hotel so a bit more quirky than a box chain. Convenient for the town center. There is limited parking plus a larger public car park at the rear, which was safe and adequate for us.
This was a 1st visit. Our room was lovely and very clean. Our meal was good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lovely individual areas to sit with a drink. The only negative to this Hotel is parking, which is a lottery whether you will park or not! This makes the stay there very stressful if you need to leave your space to travel somewhere. Great Hotel to stay in if you are visiting Lichfield, lots of lovely shops within walking distance.
Only used the restaurant for Sunday carvery. Food is plentiful and good quality, although no Cauliflower cheese even though still an hour to closing! Parsnips seriously large, half the plate! I needed someone to carvery and had to ask for chef, he appeared and decided to hold each of the meat joints with his hand rather than a carving fork! I'm easy going so, whilst not right, I rolled with it. My wife and friends were aghast! Still, no ill effects! Waitress service poor. The coffee was good and served in large ceramic pots.
Very enjoyable bar meal experience this afternoon. The service was polite and friendly and the food thoroughly enjoyable. Considering the price of food has gone up in recent times, we felt the menu offered good value compared to other places we’ve been to. Thanks for creating happy memories for us.
