  • Parking on Centre City, Hinckley Street, B5

    Easy to find, clean and tidy and felt secure. Entrance and exit are a tight for a bigger car

  • Parking on Brindleyplace, B1

    Entry and exit from the car park could not have been easier. I was concerned that, having seen other reviews, there might be issues when leaving the car park but I need not have worried. Spaces are not large but fine if care is taken. The cost was very reasonable given the central location with easy access to local attractions. I will definitely use this car park again.

  • Parking on Brindleyplace, B1

    Thank you so much for making our overnight visit to Birmingham great! Our car was safe and the operator was warm, polite and helpful when we needed to exit, we’ll definitely be using this car park again.

    Angelina
  • Parking at Mailbox Car Park, B1

    Get ticket on entry. Leaving, Go to exit barrier and press help button. We waited several minutes to be answered and caused a build up of cars behind us. Couldn't find our booking (as booking ID is not the same as access code, which we didn't have) after another 5 minutes he raised the barrier, seemingly using our reg plate as confirmation? Would use again as its a lot cheaper and a perfect location.

    Nice and easy. Really good place to park.

    Adrian
  • Parking on Hampton Hilton Hotel, B15

    Excellent car spaces, easy access in and out plenty of spaces

    Scott
  • Parking on Hyatt Regency Hotel, B1

    It was really good parking right by the hotel. For 2 older ladies having the car outside it’s amazing thank you. The only problem was I paid for 3 days and we went on a little drive one day and when I came back there was no space. The Hyatt hotel had kindly put a cone out in my space however it was moved and a car parked in it. So if you can pay for 3 days you should be able to reserve your space. Otherwise amazing and very easy app to book and pay thank you

    Melanie
  • Parking on Colbrand Grove, B15

    Fab location. Edgbaston cricket ground is around 25 minutes walk away, and the city centre isn't too far either. I arrived a little earlier than expected but that wasn't an issue for the owners of the space, who were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely use again if needed.
