HOW TO GET TO US
Based in the heart of Birmingham, we’re easy to reach
YOUR BIRMINGHAM CITY CENTRE HOTEL
The Hotel and Conference Centre is located on the green, landscaped campus of Aston University, right at the heart of Birmingham City Centre, easy to get to by road, rail and air. Here you'll find handy guidance on how to get here, however you're travelling.
A City Centre location means a location with exceptional public transport, from three mainline train stations to the Midland Metro tram service, the first choice to get here is often the most sustainable choice. Taking the train can help you reduce your carbon footprint over taking a standard family petrol or diesel car.
From your front door, to ours... What3Words is a great way to get exactly where you need to be!

When you book car parking, you'll receive the What3Words links for our car park entrances in your confirmation email, and additional locations are included on our downloadable guide.
