"There are some places where history quietly lingers..."

Long before becoming one of the world's most celebrated authors, a young J.R.R. Tolkien spent time at the Best Western Plough & Harrow Hotel.

Today, a blue plaque marks this fascinating connection, offering visitors a glimpse into Birmingham's rich literary heritage.

For book lovers, history enthusiasts and curious travellers alike, the Plough & Harrow provides the perfect starting point for exploring Birmingham's Tolkien connections before returning to relax with a drink in the garden or a meal in our lounge.

A century may have passed, but some stories never lose their magic.

Book your stay and discover Birmingham's literary heritage for yourself.
