The three-pearl Arden Hotel & Leisure Club is a dated property with nice perks, well-located near Birmingham National Exhibition Centre, Resorts World, and Genting Arena. A little isolated amid highways serving the nearby airport, it's the region's largest independent hotel, and offers several amenities for those happy to forego an up-to-date look. The 216 rooms are functional, with desks, flat-screen TVs, and electric kettles, but guests find them noisy. Solid drinking and dining in three venues accompanies a great leisure club with indoor pool, plus meeting facilities are extensive. Less remote, the downtown The St John's Hotel is less shabby, but pricier.
