So I'll start on the positives. The hotel has had a recent refurbishment inside and is lovely and clean, the reception staff were all amazing during the 5 nights that we stayed and the breakfast menu was lovely and served hot.  …

Nicest premier inn we’ve stayed in and at a great price booked in advance!The outside of this hotel looks somewhat uninviting, building looks tatty and car park derelict.Once we had located reception it was obvious the inside had been recently refurbished, entrance was modern and fresh.The staff on reception were friendly and welcoming.The room was lovely, love the new layout and the two chairs with table. Much better than the previous desk arrangement.Full walk in shower was amazing compared to previous shower over bath design.Room felt fresh and modern, very clean with neat decor.Beds were extremely comfortable, all clean bedding and extra pillows provided.Tea and coffee provided , cups and kettle were all clean. Tv worked without a problem.No air conditioning but fan was provided.Had a great stay here and would definitely come back should we need to in the future.

Ok so the price seemed good for the area, and during our stay we found out why:-Food was only available for breakfast during our stay (which had been the case for weeks before our arrival) parking was 'interesting'.Our "Accessible Room" was 100 paces from reception. The whole place looked to have been recently refurbished, but in a hurry - carpenters pencil markings for drilling door lock screw holes still visible, around a 1/4 of the door locks I looked at were fitted at a slight angle, it was pretty shoddy.As another little shoddy touch - the extractor fan in our wet room (room 26 if maintenance ever read this) was connected to the main/bedroom light switch rather than the one for the wet room, so if we wanted the main room lights on we had to put up with the fan noise!

We came back recently from our stay at the Premier Inn at Solihull and wanted to say thank you for an excellent stay. We had one of the Premier Plus rooms and they were great, just a touch more luxury and topped off our stay to a tea. …

Saying this without a doubt, but this is by far the best PI we’ve ever stayed in. Just outside of Solihull Town Centre and Dorridge but still accessible by public transport, it’s quiet, like really quiet, you cannot hear the outside and we struggled to hear the rain over the night. It’s been fully refurbished which means the spaces were modern and brand new, and the reception team were amazing.Personally want to thank the bar team including Tracy, all of the management and staff (wish I got the rest of their names) for making this experience such a memorable one, they were polite, friendly and the vibe was just amazing overall! 😄Only let down was the restaurant was closed for a couple of weeks, We will be back, this is our new place to stay when staying in Solihull.

If you're looking for a hotel that will completely cut you off from the outside world, congratulations—you've found it! The Premier Inn Solihull Hockley Heath M42 is your one-stop shop for total digital isolation. …

For our purpose, the hotel was well located and easy to find. There was plenty of car parking available but it was not obvious where was most appropriate for leaving the car overnight.||The hotel was all we expected from a Premier Inn, which is the main reason we choose them. ||Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
