The hype
Travelers rave about the immaculate cleanliness and the 'best sleep ever' in the windowless rooms, but often struggle with the lack of storage space.
Bloc Hotel Birmingham
$60-110/คืน
จองหาก You want a high-tech, razor-sharp sleep pod in Birmingham's coolest neighborhood without paying for fluff you won't use.
ทำไมคนถึงชอบ
- Unbeatable Jewellery Quarter location near St Paul's Square
- Japanese-style efficiency with high-end finishes (drench showers, pocket-sprung beds)
- Dead-silent 'Sleep' rooms with no windows for total blackout rest
สรุปด่วน: It's basically a luxury prison cell—in the best possible way—where you trade square footage for a perfect mattress and a great price.
รีวิวโดย @riarockyexplores: I couldn't believe we snagged this stay for just £50! We even got upgraded to a massive apartment. The room felt super luxe, though the high-tech controls were a bit temperamental for us. Just keep your phone charged for the door keys and you'll love the value.
ผู้เข้าพักบอกว่า
Reality check
The 'compact' description is not a joke—you will be stepping over your suitcase in the standard rooms.
- You are a solo traveler or close couple who just needs a crash pad
- You value a high-pressure shower and fast Wi-Fi over a lobby bar
- You want to be steps away from Birmingham's best indie cafes and bars
ความสะอาดและการบำรุงรักษา
9
- Housekeeping: Daily service is thorough; rooms are small so they are easy to keep spotless.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Grout is usually white and mold-free due to the wet-room design drying quickly.
- Maintenance: Modern build means little wear and tear; everything feels new and functional.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, white Egyptian cotton sheets. Towels are fluffy but you only get two.
- Odors & scents: Neutral, fresh scent. No musty carpets (floors are hard/laminate).

“I would love a room on a higher floor (3rd or 4th) to minimize street noise. If available, a corner Vista room would be amazing.”
คำถามที่พบบ่อย & เคล็ดลับที่ซ่อนอยู่
ทุกสิ่งที่คุณต้องการรู้จริงๆ ก่อนที่จะจอง
Is there parking?
No on-site parking. The hotel offers a discount for the nearby NCP Newhall Street (approx. £15/24h), but street parking is cheaper if you time it right.
Does the hotel have a gym?
No. Your best bet is a day pass at 'The Gym Group' or 'Ultra Fit' nearby.
Are the windowless rooms terrible?
Actually, no. They are the quietest rooms in the hotel and perfect for deep sleep, provided you don't need a view.
Is breakfast included?
No, and don't bother with the lobby vending machines. You are in the Jewellery Quarter—go to Hylton Café or Urban for a real breakfast.
Can I bring my dog?
No, the hotel is strictly no-pets allowed.
What is the check-out time?
11:00 AM. Late check-out (12:00 PM or 1:00 PM) can sometimes be purchased for a fee.

Join the 'Bloc VIP' program on their website for free before booking—it often unlocks a 10-15% discount and free late check-out.

The 'Apartment' rooms are often only £15-20 more than a standard room but double the size—always check the upgrade cost.

Ask for a 'Vista' room facing away from the street if you want natural light but are a light sleeper.
5 สิ่งที่ต้องรู้ก่อนเดินทาง
💡The bathroom is a 'wet room'—the whole floor gets soaked when you shower, so move your toilet paper.
💡The air conditioning is controlled centrally but can be tweaked via the smart panel; it's known to be very effective (cold).
💡There is literally no wardrobe. Just three knobs on the wall. Live out of your suitcase.
💡The 'Smart Room Control' lets you change the mood lighting color—turn your room purple or red for vibes.
💡You can check in and go straight to your room using your phone without ever speaking to a human.
