Pet Friendly Hotels And Accommodation In Birmingham, England

Birmingham, England’s second largest city by population, is becoming an incredibly popular vacation destination. With a wealth of industrial heritage, numerous museums, art galleries and the likes, together with countless top class visitor attractions and some of the best venues for live music, the arts and large scale meetings it is not surprising that so many folk take vacations and short city breaks here.

It may surprise you to learn, or you may not have even considered the fact, that increasing numbers of people now take their pets along with them when they take a vacation. It can be very stressful for both the pet and your family to be parted for even a brief time but this is not the only reason for the increase. As with everything else these days, boarding for your pet, while away, has become incredibly expensive. The expense is often so great that you can make a substantial saving even if your chosen hotel charges you for the privilege of having your pet in your room.

You may not have previously considered either a vacation in Birmingham or taking your pet with you. Sadly, if you do decide to take your pet, then you will immediately notice that hardly any accommodation allows pets. It is a sad fact that often fewer than one in a hundred guest houses, hotels and other accommodation allow pets.

You will quickly discover what a thoroughly depressing task it is to find pet friendly Birmingham accommodation. Imagine finding the perfect hotel out of say, seventy only to scroll down to the hotel policies and discover those dreaded words, no pets allowed. Understanding this I wish to introduce a few places in Birmingham which specifically say “pets allowed”.

The Macdonald Burlington Hotel The huge Macdonald Burlington is a 4 star city centre establishment, which is a couple of minutes from New Street Rail Station, conveniently situated next door to a large NCP car park.

The Crowne Plaza Hotel The absolutely enormous Crowne Plaza is a 4 star pet friendly hotel located on Holliday Street right in the very centre of the city.

The Radisson Sas The Radisson Sas is an enormous 3 star Birmingham city centre hotel which is situated about five hundred metres from the New Street Rail Station.

One of the problems with the hotels mentioned above is that they all have over 150 rooms and many folk prefer to stay in smaller more intimate hotels. As pet friendly hotels in Birmingham are pretty few and far between it will not surprise you to learn that if you are in search of a city centre hotel that has a much lesser number of rooms there is only the 51 room Ibis Holloway Circus which states that pets are allowed.
