Best Western Plough & Harrow Hotel

About

The Best Western Plough & Harrow Hotel is one of Birmingham's most distinctive conference and meeting venues, combining the character and elegance of a Victorian country house with the convenience of an excellent city location. Situated in the prestigious Edgbaston district, just minutes from Birmingham City Centre, Broad Street, the ICC, Utilita Arena Birmingham and major motorway networks including the M5, M6 and M42, the hotel provides an ideal setting for conferences, meetings, training courses, corporate events and residential programmes. Offering complimentary on-site parking for up to 90 vehicles, the hotel removes many of the logistical challenges associated with city centre venues while remaining within easy reach of Birmingham's commercial districts and transport links. The hotel offers six flexible meeting and event spaces accommodating everything from private board meetings for 8 delegates through to conferences, exhibitions and dinners for up to 120 delegates. Every meeting room benefits from natural daylight, complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, modern presentation facilities and flexible layouts including theatre, cabaret, classroom, boardroom and U-shape configurations. Our experienced events team works closely with organisers throughout the planning process to ensure every event runs smoothly from enquiry through to departure. The impressive Calthorpe Suite is ideal for conferences, presentations and larger corporate events, while the elegant Library provides an inspiring environment for seminars, workshops and private dining. A selection of smaller meeting rooms offers excellent breakout facilities, interview rooms and executive boardrooms, allowing the hotel to accommodate multi-room conferences and training events with ease. Beyond the meeting rooms, delegates can enjoy the hotel's attractive landscaped gardens and terrace, providing an ideal space for networking, outdoor refreshments, informal meetings or team-building activities during warmer months. Inside, guests benefit from a relaxed lounge bar, restaurant and welcoming public areas, creating an environment that encourages productive meetings and informal collaboration. The hotel features 44 comfortable bedrooms, making it an excellent choice for residential conferences, training courses and multi-day meetings. Guest rooms include complimentary Wi-Fi, workspaces, flat-screen televisions and everything required for a comfortable business stay. Delegates can enjoy freshly prepared meals in the restaurant or unwind in Beauforts Bar after a productive day. Flexible day delegate packages, residential conference packages and bespoke event menus are available, with dedicated conference coordinators on hand to tailor every event to individual requirements. Whether hosting a small management meeting, a regional sales conference, an exhibition, recruitment day or corporate dinner, the Plough & Harrow Hotel delivers professional service in a unique setting that offers something refreshingly different from the standard corporate venue. Combining historic character, flexible event facilities, complimentary parking, comfortable accommodation and a highly accessible location, the Best Western Plough & Harrow Hotel remains one of Birmingham's most individual and welcoming venues for meetings, conferences and business travel.
