Birmingham City Centre, a neighbourhood in Birmingham, is home to this guesthouse. Bullring & Grand Central and Broad Street are worth checking out if shopping is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's popular attractions can visit Cadbury World. Looking to enjoy an event or a game? See what's going on at Utilita Arena Birmingham or Villa Park. Fishing offers a great chance to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with rock climbing and cycling nearby.
A large family room, with a double bed, two single beds and ensuite bathroom. The Old Crown is a striking building, rich in history and character and is one of a few remaining examples of Birmingham's medieval past. The building is a Grade II listed building and was built circa 1368. It is believed that every room has a tale to tell and it is said that the Old Crown is haunted by not one but two ghosts! Ask our staff for some of the building's spooky tales.
The Old Crown is located only half a mile from the city centre, making it perfect for anyone travelling for work, wanting to visit the Bullring (our proud shopping complex), see our sights or just for a break. There are good transport links with buses and trains running in the local area.
Although we do not have on-site parking, there are a number of local car parks (2 located on the High Street, visible from the hotel), feel free to enquire with us for more details or directions. We are located in the heart of Digbeth, which is a lively area filled with culture and a hospitable community.
The Old Crown is well known for it's events, such as Oktoberfest, 12 Weeks of Summer, takeovers and many more. Due to the fact the building is Grade II listed, some noise does travel around the building from our garden, and the surrounding roads. However, if you are looking for somewhere steeped in history and character, The Old Crown is the perfect place.
We have a kitchen on-site providing freshly made food and pub classics.

Friendly staff. We were allowed to drop off our suitcases early because we were attending a football match. After the match, check-in was very smooth. We were also allowed to leave our suitcases for free after check-out and pick them up later. Beautiful old inn with a pleasant atmosphere where you can enjoy a drink after your return in the evening.

Lovely, atmospheric accommodation
Staff were excellent, room was amazing - I so enjoyed how obviously historical the building was. Floors and stairs are a bit uneven, so not for people with limited mobility.

Great Cultural Experiance!
As a Canadian band that stays many hotels in a year, the Olde Crown offers a really memorable experience. Being the oldest Inn in Birmingham the slanted floors, old skeleton key and creaky floors added to the excitement we had staying in such a historic place. This can't be said for many hotels but here it works. Excellent staff and delicious food at the pub downstairs.
Called prior to staying and found management very helpful. Checked in and was given key and instructions how to enter property outside hours etc. It was a short taxi ride to our venue. Or about 25 min walk. Only one thing to mention, the towels were like cardboard. But otherwise very good.
