Edgbaston Park Hotel & Conference Centre partners with West Midlands Trains to offer discounted train tickets. University Station is a ten-minute walk from the hotel, and a two-minute walk from the centre of University of Birmingham’s campus.

The easiest way to get to the conference centre is to walk past the University’s Main Library and Teaching and Learning Building (Ring Road North), up the hill towards North Gate on Pritchatts Road. Turn right and cross at the pedestrian crossing – the University’s iconic clocktower should be behind you.

Continue walking on Pritchatts Road until you see the entrance of the multi-storey North East Car Park. Turn left here and walk past the Centre for Human Brain Health (CHBH). Edgbaston Park Hotel & Conference Centre will be on your left.

There are taxi ranks at Birmingham New Street Station (Grand Central) and throughout the city centre. Hail a cab or use the Uber and Ola apps.

The journey to the hotel from the city centre takes around 15 minutes, depending on traffic.

If you’re approaching from the M6, leave at Junction 6 (signposted Birmingham Central) to join the A38 (M). Continue on the A48, then take the B4127. Turn left onto Wheeley’s Lane then continue straight until you reach the hotel (on your right).

Approaching from M42 north? Leave at Junction 8 to join the M6 northbound and follow the instructions above. If you’re approaching from the southwest, leave the M5 at Junction 4 (signposted Birmingham SW) to join the A38. And, if you’re approaching from the M40, head west on the M42 from Junction 3A. At Junction 3 take the A435 exit (Birmingham South).

When you arrive, you’ll find complimentary parking right outside the hotel, including Blue Badge-only bays. Spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. If no spaces are available, you can also park for free on the ground floor of the University’s multi-storey North East Car Park (a two-minute walk from the hotel).

To claim your free parking, make sure to enter your car registration details into the system at reception upon arrival. If you don’t do this, you may be fined.
