B&B near B'ham Library
« on: Friday 25 June 10 16:51 BST (UK) »
Hello Rootschatters. Can anyone recommend a moderately priced B&B within walking distance (1/2 hour maximum) of the Birmingham Library and Archives? I'll be in Birmingham for several days in late July doing family history research.

Thanks.  :)  Dinosaur

There aren't any B & B's within walking distance,the library is in the centre of the city.
The nearest I can think of is the Premier Inn on the Hagley Rd. within walking distance of Broad St.The library is at the other end.

There is the Novotel in Broad Street, within walking distange of the library and the Jurys Inn in Broad Street.  Maybe not exactly what you were looking for but they are certainly fairly close.

There may be a couple of others.  If you search on google for hotels+Broad Street, Birmingham you will get the links for the above.
