You won’t find a better spot in Birmingham than the Leonardo Royal Hotel. It’s set down roots on Broad Street, right in the heart of the UK’s second city. It means you’re five minutes’ walk from the SEA Life Centre or LEGOLAND Discovery Centre, as well as the Utilita Arena. You’ve got the bars, restaurants and clubs of Broad Street on your doorstep. Plus, you’re walking distance from Birmingham New Street Station and the Bullring shopping centre.

But it doesn’t just let its location do the talking. The Leonardo Royal Hotel Birmingham is a seriously stylish customer, with slick rooms and public areas. The rooms all come with a flat-screen TV with Chromecast, so you can stream your favourite programmes. They also line up mini-fridges, Nespresso machines and free Wi-Fi.

As for food, Leo’s puts on a buffet breakfast with Continental and hot options. Or, you can order big plates, salads and sandwiches for lunch or dinner. There’s a chic-looking bar serving wine, beer, cocktails and soft drinks. And if you’re pooped after a day of shopping, meetings or socialising, then just order from the 24-hour room service menu.
