From its powerful industrial heritage, Birmingham has evolved and transformed to become one of the UK’s most dynamic – and Europe’s youngest - cities.
Contemporary new architecture and art including the new Selfridges at Bullring, Thinktank at Millennium Point and the Ikon Gallery at Brindleyplace, sit alongside historic city squares, while the canal network – a masterpiece of the industrial revolution - brings together waterside bars, shops and offices.
The Jewellery Quarter, with its specialist workshops and galleries, is also where you’ll find some of the newest, coolest bars in the city.
Mailbox is a must for retail therapy, with glamorous shopping from Harvey Nichs to Emporio Armani or visit the funky independent shops, which sit alongside the city’s retail core.
A cultural tour will take in the Electric Cinema, the oldest working cinema in the UK, for independent and intelligent mainstream films, a range of venues including The Rep and Crescent theatres, the Hippodrome for the Birmingham Royal Ballet, Symphony Hall, The Drum, St Paul’s Gallery with its album artwork, the £35 million newly renovated Town Hall and Birmingham’s arts and media focal point, the Custard Factory.
Birmingham has taken its very best and reinvented itself. Come and stay in one of our Birmingham serviced apartments to see for yourself. To find out more on the city’s culture, nightlife, shopping, sport and entertainment visit www.visitbirmingham.co.uk
Staying Cool's apartments are on the top two floors of the Rotunda - the city's iconic 60's landmark that has been wonderfully restored by Urban Splash.
