Hi.

What is the fast and cheapest way of getting from Formula 1 Hotel to the Nec Center?

The hotel is on 3,
Bordesley Park Road
Small Heath Highway
B10 OPD Birmingham

many thanks

58 bus passes small heath and goes to nec,
it is probably the cheapest, shouldnt take more than about 20 mins??

The fastest way will be by taxi, but it won't be the cheapest (that will be the bus).

The journey planner on:

http://www.travelinemidlands.co.uk/JourneyPlanner.jsp?vm_Reset_str=true

suggests that you will need to change buses, whether you search for departures from 'bordesley green road' or 'small heath highway'. The journeyplanner doesn't recognise the postcode, for some reason. The hotel staff should be able to tell you where to catch the 58 bus, if that's the direct option (might involve a walk).

Hi,

Bus 58 stops around the corner from the hotel near the Aldi Supermarket on Coventry Road and runs every 30mins throughout the day.

Faster is Bus 900 but the stop isn't close to the hotel, it travels past the hotel on the Dual Carriageway but doesn't stop so you'll have to walk towards the City Centre for about 10mins to the bus stop it uses.
