The B&B is situated in a quiet residential area near Birmingham airport, making it convenient for travelers attending events at NEC or concerts. The rooms offer a comfortable stay, though some cleanliness issues were noted in the bathrooms. Service could be improved to address maintenance issues promptly.

My room at Arden House was not only decent in size but also had wonderful little touches like a free 'minibar' with soft drinks and snacks, homemade biscuits, and fair trade tea. The comfort level was spot on, although having to open both windows in our bedrooms could be inconvenient at times.
Service

The service here truly went over and above, especially when the host offered to drive me to the airport after a taxi mishap the night before. Despite living far away, the staff remained hospitable and even catered to my girlfriend's requirements. A true highlight of my stay.

The location of Arden House on the edge of a modern estate with parkland nearby provided a quiet and pleasant stay. It was convenient for my visit to NEC and the Birmingham area, with easy access to the airport and attractions like the Motorbike Museum. The peaceful surroundings added to the appeal of the place.

The dining experience offered a mix of fantastic and mediocre moments. While the food quality was fantastic, with a great selection made to order, there were some disappointments like the lack of fresh ingredients that affected the overall enjoyment. However, the seriously yummy Pork Belly dish was a standout.
