'total bohemian , but loved it all the same.'
Male, 5th Sep 2008
Looking for a place to stay in Birmingham's city centre that is walking distance to Birmingham's famous sites, easy on your wallet, and a great place to meet new friends? Then search no further, the best place for you to stay is with us- at Birmingham Central Backpackers.

Ideally located thirty seconds from the National Express central coach station and a seven minute walk to New Street Station, we are your best choice for friendly budget accommodation in Birmingham's city centre.

**New from May 2008 is the creation of our ultra sleek looking POD room. Built and designed to purpose by an amazing local construction company, our POD beds are a self-contained unit based on the Japanese capsule design, only more spacious. They offer you more privacy than a traditional bunk because they are enclosed. Each POD bed has a comfy mattress, 360 degree moveable reading light and giant personal lockers running the length of the pod bed**

Staying at Birmingham Central Backpackers has its advantages! We are like a home away from home. Immediately upon arrival you will feel like part of the family and due to our intimate setting, it's a great place to meet fellow travellers.

*SAVE ON TRANSPORT-We are in the centre of Birmingham so you will save money by not needing to take taxis or buses to get to the main attractions in Birmingham.

*TOUGH TO BEAT FOR LOCATION-If you need to get to the NEC or Cadbury World, which are located outside the city centre, we are a short walk to the train station and one street away from the bus stop for the NEC and Birmingham Airport.

*BAR/COFFEE SHOP-We have a coffee/bar and travel shop at reception selling light snacks and refreshing drinks, as well as important travel items like adapter, shampoo, toothpaste, etc.

*SELF-CATERING FACILITIES
-There is a fully-fitted kitchen with an oven, stove, microwaves, griller, sandwich toaster and full of utensils-which saves you money on eating out.

*TOP NOTCH CINEMA AND MOVIE COLLECTION-Forget about going to the movies, we bring the cinema to you! Pick a movie from our huge video library and watch it on our enormous projection screen TV with surround sound and enjoy free popcorn during movies.

*OUTDOOR PATIO, GARDEN AND BBQ-Our outdoor garden is in full bloom and the colours are fabulous. Join us out back for our weekly guest BBQ and chill out while you meet other guests and get a free meal!

*HUGE CHILL OUT COMMON ROOM-Our common room/chill-out lounge is the best around. With bright colours, cool music, and a laid back atmosphere-you will feel right at home.

* FREE NIGHTLY SNACKS* We know you are on a budget, so we as a courtesy to our guests we offer a small nightly buffet in the common room as a way to say thanks for staying with us.

*GREAT STAFF-Our staff is the best around. They provide excellent customer service and understand that we are here to look after you and make sure your time in Birmingham is the best it can be. We offer free maps upon arrival and always try to help you get where you are going!

At Birmingham Central we offer 'dormitory-style' accommodation with 4-8 bed dorms. Most dorms have their own sink and shower, but toilet facilities are shared. There are luggage lockers in most dorms, so bring a lock or buy one at reception for a pound. If you need us to hold your luggage for a few hours after check out, it isn't a problem.

In addition to Birmingham Central, we also offer beds in our second building located 150 yards away. Our second building houses one private room, one four bed, one eight-bed and two six-bed dorms. If you book here with us you will have full access to the amenities at the main building.

Check-in time is 2pm-11pm. If you need to arrive outside these times, please contact us and let us know once you have booked just so we know to expect you late.

Please note, due to our guests being of adult age and the fact that we are licensed as a pub, we do not accept guests under the age of 16 or liquor brought in from outside. Alcohol consumed on our premises must be bought at the bar due to our licensing laws and consumed in the common area.

We accept debit and credit cards but debit cards will be charged an additional 40 p charge and credit cards will be charged 2% of the total charge. This is to off-set the cost of processing the transaction.

** Please note that most rooms are of equal value and are interchangeable **

**Photo ID is needed to check into this hostel.**

Come and join us at Birmingham Central Backpackers, you will be glad you stayed!
