Hotel Accommodation near the show
Whilst a visit to the show can be enjoyed without a 'stay over', we really believe that to get the most from what this show has to offer, a hotel stay close to the site is a must. And compared to London prices it's also extremely good value. Here's a couple of good choices to whet the appetite:
Crowne Plaza Hotel Birmingham NEC
A good quality 4 star just a 5 minute walk from the National Exhibition Centre, and 5 minute drive to the airport and Birmingham International station. Current prices approx. £159 per room per night including full breakfast, 2 sharing a double room.

Novotel Birmingham Airport
Another fine 4 star, right opposite the terminal building at the international airport, and connected to the NEC by a complimentary airport 'skyrail' (journey time supposedly 90 seconds!).
As with the Crowne Plaza, this hotel is well reviewed on TripAdvisor, but currently also has some quite spectacular prices for a hotel of this calibre and location- from £59 for a queen sized double room if booked in advance on a non refundable rate, £69 on best available rate, and just £89 including full breakfast for two!

A good budget option, well reviewed, both convenient for the airport and the exhibition centre with a complimentary shuttle service. Prices start around £45 for a double or twin room only. An 'all you can eat' buffet breakfast is available for £7.95/adult too!
