We booked with hotels.com when it was the ibis styles. We booked with breakfast. When we arrived, the hotel was now run by Marriot as AC Hotels but the breakfast option had not been transferred along with tge booking. However the staff/management allowed us to have breakfast once we showed then the itinerary on the hotels app. Other than that the stay was very good.

Lovely clean hotel conveniently located for the NEC and train station. Large firm bed. Comfy pillows. Air conditioning was great. Ironing board in room. Generally peaceful stay- only downside was some doors weren't soft closing.

Clean, functional hotel. Average food in the bar/restaurant. Buffet breakfast disappointing. Bed very firm and uncomfortable, feather duvet/pillows inappropriate for allergy sufferers. Booked for 2 nights with breakfast, only stayed for 1 night. Staff tried their best.

Hotel had changed to an AC Marriott and undergone renovation - family room was large (2 doubles and a single sofa bed) and in immaculate condition. Whole place looked clean and modern. Bar was a bit overwhelmed by the number of gamers staying the whole weekend (could do with some soft drinks on pump instead of cans) but bar staff were very good. Really grateful to the team for arranging to return some shirts we accidentally left in the room too, a very kind gesture!
