Birmingham Hotel Guide - Aston Hall hotels in Birmingham, United Kingdom.

One of Birmingham's most majestic historic landmarks, Aston Hall is a remarkable Jacobean house that is around four centuries old. In fact it's one of the oldest houses in the city, although it was largely surrounded by countryside until the rapid growth of Birmingham during the Industrial Revolution. Today, it's close to many affordable and luxury hotels in the centre of the city and its leafy suburbs.

A History Of Aston Hall

The hall was designed by the prominent English architect John Thorpe, who designed many other famous landmarks across the country, including the impressive mansion of Charlton House in London. Although it suffered damage during the English Civil War, much of the original building still survives, and the site is now an important community museum with various textiles artefacts and paintings. Despite its proximity to the city centre, Aston Hall has a surprisingly rural feel, and overlooks delightful landscaped gardens that are idyllic for a slow summer stroll before you return to your hotel
