In more recent years there has been a move away from the usual seaside vacation in favour of something a little bit more unusual, such as a city break in an industrial town. During this time of economic downturn it is important to try to save cash where we can so many tourists are choosing to arrange their own vacations rather than going with a package deal. Visiting a city is often far cheaper than visiting a highly popular resort as it is often possible to find budget hotels not too far from first class five star hotels. Another way to save some cash is to visit a country where your local currency is stronger and with this in mind I wish to introduce you to the wonderful city of Birmingham in England, in the United Kingdom. The British pound is still rather weak against such currencies as the Euro and the Dollar so it makes it viable, now more than ever, to take a vacation in the UK and Birmingham is one of the most fascinating cities in England.
The city of Birmingham has a superb collection of things to do and places to visit including a few interesting museums and art galleries, for example the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery, Museum of the Jewellery Quarter, Barber Institute of Fine Arts and the new museum called Thinktank in the Eastside. The city also possesses a large number of square miles of parkland and woodland, Sutton Park being the largest with 2,400 acres making it the very largest urban nature reserve in the whole of Europe.
Some Interesting Places To Stay In Birmingham
Macdonald Burlington Hotel
The Macdonald Burlington is located in the heart of Birmingham and it is only a couple of minutes from New Street station (and adjacent to a 2,000 space NCP car park). The price is extremely reasonable especially when you consider that this is a 4 star rated hotel offering a whole host of modern facilities and first class, friendly, service.
The Holiday Inn
Another city centre hotel offering superb accommodation at a very reasonable price is the Holiday Inn. This 3 star establishment is a little further away from New Street station (roughly a five minute walk away) but is maybe more suited for those visiting Birmingham on business.
Staying Cool at The Rotunda
The studio serviced apartments of Staying Cool at The Rotunda are in an incredible style and will appeal strongly to those who like to stay in boutique hotels. Rather than being expensive Staying Cool at The Rotunda offers four and five star accommodation at a surprisingly low price.
Birmingham has plenty more hotels than the three mentioned above. There is a massive variety in choice ranging from some of the most luxurious hotels in England to small guest houses, all offering superb service and many facilities. Whether you are visiting the city for business or pleasure you can be sure to find a most suitable place to stay at a very reasonable cost.
