HS2 Accommodation — Birmingham, Solihull & Coventry

HS2 Accommodation for Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry & Warwickshire

HS2 Phase 1 is the largest infrastructure project in Europe — and the West Midlands is its beating heart. Whether you're working on the Birmingham Interchange Station at Solihull, the Curzon Street terminus in central Birmingham, the Long Itchington Wood tunnel in Warwickshire, or the Delta Junction at Water Orton, your team needs a base that's close enough to cut commute times — but cheaper than staying in Birmingham city centre. That base is Coventry. Maine Stays provides fully serviced houses just off the M6/A45 — the perfect launchpad for HS2 crews working anywhere across Birmingham, Solihull, Warwickshire and the wider West Midlands corridor.

Unlike cramped hotel rooms or unreliable last-minute Airbnb listings, our properties give your team an entire house with separate bedrooms, shared living spaces, a full kitchen, and free parking for work vehicles. It is the kind of accommodation that keeps your team rested, fed, and ready for the demands of a construction schedule.

Why HS2 Workers Choose Maine Stays

• Group bookings — 3-bed and 4-bed houses accommodate entire crews under one roof
• Long-stay discounts — significant savings on weekly and monthly rates for extended contracts
• Self-catering — full kitchens mean your team can cook their own meals and save £30+ per person per day on food
• Free off-road parking — space for vans, pickups, and work vehicles at no extra charge
• High-speed WiFi — stay connected for project management, reporting, and evening downtime
• Washing machine — essential for keeping PPE and workwear clean on long placements
• Self check-in — key safe access means early starts and late finishes are no problem

Why Coventry Is the Smart Base for HS2 Birmingham & Solihull Work

Most HS2 contractors instinctively look for accommodation in Birmingham city centre — but Birmingham hotel and apartment prices have climbed sharply since HS2 ramped up, and parking is a nightmare. Coventry sits just 18 miles down the M6/A45 from Birmingham Interchange and the NEC, giving your crew the same access at a fraction of the cost. Here's what makes Coventry the better base for HS2 contractors working anywhere from Birmingham to Warwickshire:

• Birmingham Interchange Station (Solihull) — ~22 minutes via M6/A45, the heart of HS2 Phase 1
• Curzon Street Terminus (Birmingham city centre) — around 30 minutes via the M6
• Delta Junction & Bromford Tunnel (East Birmingham) — 26–30 minutes via M6
• Long Itchington Wood & South Warwickshire tunnel works — ~22 minutes via A45/A423
• Balsall Common viaduct (A452 corridor) — ~18 minutes via A45
• Lower accommodation costs — significantly cheaper than equivalent Birmingham, Solihull or Warwick stays
• Free parking for vans and work vehicles — not something you'll find at most Birmingham city-centre hotels
• Supermarkets, takeaways, and amenities — all within easy reach of our properties
