You could always bunk up at AtW's place........if you don't mind a squirrel infestation and the interminable squeaking of his bedsprings. He makes a mean Beetroot Soup allegedly.

I will be near Fiveways train station, but still not far from New Street.

Fiveways is right at the end of Broadstreet which is kind of the main street for pubs, clubs etc - New Street is indeed not too far from it, so is Snow Hill but I am not sure this would be best street for hotel staying since I think hotels there more used to drunk Friday night outgoers looking for a room

Does anyone have any experience of staying over in Birmingham or the general Birmingham area? Can you recommend anything? Any tips? Anything to avoid?

I start a new contract next week and will need something decent. My preference is a hotel, and I will be in the car so it can be a few miles out if needs be.

Please resisit the temptation to say, for example, that 'the best hotel in Birmingham is in Leeds...' or something.
