“Great apartment, great service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

Looked after very well by onsite team, offered a free upgrade to the penthouse immediately on arrival which was just as good as photos suggest. Great apartment with amazing views and all mod cons. iPod player, coffee machine, juicer were all great touches. Staff were friendly and helpful at all times

Hi Megan We are delighted that your weekend was a "Blaze of Glory" (Sorry we couldn’t resist a little Bon Jovi reference). Thank you for your lovely comments. We'd love to see you again whether it be the next time the band are in town or just for another chance to hit the shops! Best wishes Simon More

Stayed in the Cabriolet for four nights for a very intensive course for work. The apartment made the whole week a joy. It was so nice to come back each evening to somewhere that I actually got rather attached to!!

“Best place in Brum”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2013

Terrific location and service at Staying Cool. Loved the views and making freshly squeezed OJ for breakfast! Pleasant surprise to see a Gaggia espresso maker in the room, which I know from my own research is one of the top brands available. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Birmingham.

Hi Pancake_girl, We are thrilled you are such an advocate of Staying Cool. Thank you for your short but sweet review. We love our coffee, so much so that our local store supplies us with our own signature blend and we only use Gaggia or Francis & Francis espresso machines. We would love to have you with us again.

“Brilliant Apartment”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2013

The location is second to none... right at the entrance to the Bull Ring centre and 5 mins walk from New St station. The apartment was stylish with an excellent kitchen and great views. The kitchen meant that I didn't eat out but went to M&S next door and ate in the apartment. Much better than a hotel!

Hi Craig, We are thrilled that you loved your stay with us and our central location- after all there is nothing worse than having to lug a case for miles. It seems from our recent reviews that staying in is the new going out. We hope to see you again. Best Wishes, Simon. More

“Perfect location for our special 60's birthday - unforgettable.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2013

Perfect location for our special 60's birthday. Excellent decor, facilities and staff made our stay unforgettable. Out 18th floor apartment was perfect for us to relax and we spent ages spotting landmarks. My husband came to Birmingham in 1960 from Ireland and spent 40 years there. We returned to celebrate his birthday in style and had a wonderful time.
