Taking Vacations In Birmingham And Where To Stay

November 22, 2009 | Leave a Comment

Sadly, in recent times, it has been forced upon us to try to save money wherever we can and often first to go are the little luxuries in life. Where many folk place their annual vacation in with their list of luxuries others regard their break as a necessity and cancelling it is not a viable option. However it is possible to save a great deal of cash simply by planning carefully ahead making small savings wherever you can. One of the best ways to cut the costs of your annual vacation is to plan it yourself, booking your own hotel and planning which places to visit (rather than paying a ridiculous amount of cash for an all inclusive package vacation). You can save yourself a small fortune by doing this as many places to visit are often free to enter. While it is possible to book cheap hotels it is often surprising how little it costs to stay in a luxury hotel. In the following article I wish to introduce you to the English city of Birmingham as a vacation destination. Not only are their bargains to be had but the British pound is still rather weak against other currencies meaning that those who live there find foreign vacations expensive and those visiting from abroad find it cheaper now than in previous years. All in all Birmingham is a great place to take a city break.

Birmingham has a healthy number of places to visit and things to do which include some fine museums and art galleries, for example the Museum of the Jewellery Quarter and the Thinktank, a new museum in the Eastside. Birmingham also has an incredible number of hectares of parks, open spaces and woodland, Sutton Park being the largest with 2,400 acres it is also the largest urban nature reserve in the United Kingdom and Europe.

The Macdonald Burlington Hotel

The Macdonald Burlington is located in the heart of Birmingham and it is only a couple of minutes from New Street station (and adjacent to a 2,000 space NCP car park).

Apartments need not be as expensive as they sound and the Staying Cool at The Rotunda offers both 4 star and 5 star accommodation at a surprisingly reasonable price. If you like boutique hotels you will love the style of these fascinating apartments.
