About Awentsbury Hotel

The Awentsbury Hotel is a family-run guest house set in a converted Victorian townhouse in Selly Oak, a leafy suburb close to the University of Birmingham and Edgbaston cricket ground. It has operated for many years as a straightforward, well-kept alternative to the city's larger chain hotels.

Rooms are simply furnished but comfortable, with a traditional cooked breakfast included and a small garden for guests to use in warmer months. Parking is available on site, a genuine advantage over most city centre options.

It suits visitors attending university events, cricket matches at Edgbaston, or anyone who prefers a quieter, more personal stay outside the immediate city centre, with a regular bus service running into town.

Guests mention this aparthotel offers well-equipped, clean rooms with kitchenettes, including amenities like microwaves and dishwashers, and some even have air fryers available to borrow. They also highlight the excellent value for money and the convenient location near major attractions and transport links. Visitors consistently praise the staff for being exceptionally friendly, helpful, and professional.
