Flexible meeting rooms provide a polished setting for collaboration or events. In a short stroll, explore the shops and entertainment of Resorts World, catch a concert at bp pulse live, or visit the NEC convention halls. Birmingham International station is just minutes away on foot, with direct trains to central Birmingham, London and beyond, and a free Air-Rail Link to the airport operating daily from 03:30 to 00:30.
