Cheap Hotels in Birmingham: What to Expect on a Budget
Birmingham is one of the UK's most visited cities, and the good news for budget travellers is that competition among hotels keeps prices relatively accessible compared to London. Nightly rates in the selections below range from roughly 45€ to 59€, covering well-known chains and independent properties spread across the city centre, the Jewellery Quarter and the Westside district. Staying close to New Street Station or in the Jewellery Quarter gives you walkable access to most major attractions without paying a premium for a postcode closer to Broad Street.
Tips for Paying Less in Birmingham
Flexibility is your best tool for cutting costs. Midweek nights, particularly Tuesday and Wednesday, tend to be cheaper than weekend rates when leisure travellers fill the city. Booking directly through a hotel's own site or through a price-comparison platform at least three to four weeks in advance often unlocks lower rates. If you are willing to stay slightly outside the absolute centre, areas like Solihull offer lower base prices with reasonable transport links back into Birmingham. Public transport on the West Midlands network is affordable, so a five or ten minute tram or bus ride rarely adds significant cost to your trip.

Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest hotel in Birmingham city centre?+
Based on current nightly rates, easyHotel Birmingham is the most affordable option on this list at around 45€ per night. It is a 3-star property rated 4 out of 5, offering a no-frills but clean and functional stay in a central location. If you need slightly more comfort for a small extra outlay, B&B HOTEL Birmingham Centre in the Westside district comes in at around 50€ per night with a 4.2 out of 5 rating.
Which Birmingham neighbourhood is best for budget travellers?+
The Jewellery Quarter stands out as a particularly good value area. It sits just northwest of the city centre, is well served by metro and bus links, and hosts competitive hotel options such as Four Points Flex by Sheraton and Hampton by Hilton, both priced under 60€ per night. The Westside district and the area around New Street Station are also strong choices, placing you within walking distance of the Bullring shopping centre, Brindleyplace and the main transport hubs.
Are budget hotels in Birmingham well rated by guests?+
Yes, several budget options on this list carry strong guest ratings. The Holiday Inn Express Birmingham City Centre holds a 4.6 out of 5 rating at 57€ per night, which represents excellent value for money. Four Points Flex by Sheraton in the Jewellery Quarter scores 4.3 out of 5 at 51€ per night. Even the more affordable easyHotel Birmingham scores 4 out of 5, suggesting that low price does not automatically mean a poor experience in this city.
Is it worth staying in Solihull instead of central Birmingham to save money?+
Solihull offers lower base prices and can suit travellers whose plans focus on the National Exhibition Centre or Birmingham Airport, both of which are nearby. RS Prime Homestay in Solihull appears on this list at 57€ per night. However, its guest rating of 3 out of 5 is the lowest in this selection, so weigh the cost saving against the trade-off in comfort and location. If your itinerary centres on Birmingham city centre attractions, the extra transport cost and journey time from Solihull can reduce the overall saving considerably.
