Edgbaston Park Hotel and Conference Centre is B Corp Certified and part of the University of Birmingham Group. Just two miles from the city centre, it’s a six-minute train ride from Birmingham New Street to the new University station, then a 10-minute walk through leafy Edgbaston. Free on-site parking is available. The modern hotel and conference centre are framed by two beautifully restored historic buildings: Garth House, a Grade II-listed luxury venue, and Hornton Grange, a charming 1928 boutique venue. Both offer unique character and bespoke interiors. With stylish rooms, varied dining options, and flexible event spaces, the venue is ideal for conferences, meetings, and special occasions. As a B Corp, we’re part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact.
Edgbaston Park Hotel has joined Innocent Drinks, Patagonia and Tony’s Chocolonely in a global community of British businesses celebrated for achieving high social and environmental standards.
The team has earned B Corp certification, confirming its excellent performance, transparency, and accountability to our team as well as customers. The auditing process is rigorous, with companies required to provide evidence while legally embedding their commitment to purpose as well as profit in their governance. Around 2,500 UK companies are certified B Corps and over 9,700 globally – and just seven of those UK companies are hotel groups.
CEO Richard Metcalfe said: ‘We couldn’t be more delighted. I’m grateful to my fantastic team for always going the extra mile to ensure we not only give customers excellent service, but we do the right thing by the planet, our community and our team too.
‘We’re very proud to be recognised as a force for good, and excited to continue our journey together with other B Corporations to benefit communities, people and the planet as a whole.
‘We’ve won numerous awards over the last year, including Midlands Food, Drink and Hospitality Hotel of the Year Award, Greater Birmingham Chamber of Commerce’s Excellence in Sustainability Award and the miaList Sales and Marketing Team of the Year. This really is the cherry on the cake.’

We introduced menus that clearly display CO2e ratings to promote climate-conscious choices. We reviewed all of our business suppliers and credited those who are local and UK based. As part of our sustainability initiatives, we source British Red Tractor meats, MSC sourced fish, and British produce wherever possible. Valuing our team, with our own awards night, recognition scheme, outstanding benefits – including two paid volunteering days a year – and development opportunities. We’re Hive Employee Voice Certified. Being a force for good in the community. All our profits go back to the University, funding research and education. This year’s charity of the year is St Basils homeless charity. We offer discounts for graduands and their families at University graduations. And we sponsor two beehives! Working with local businesses we believe in and who share similar sustainability values, like Birmingham Brewing CompanyOur commitment to team wellbeing is reflected in a high percentage of the team receiving performance-based bonus and other internal reward initiatives. We are also proud of our diverse and inclusive workforce. With a strong representation of women in leadership roles we’re championing equality in an industry where female leadership remains underrepresented globally.
