Love is in the air everywhere I look around in Birmingham. Whether you’ve booked a romantic night at a hotel or a double-date activity designed to get the heart pumping, the whole city has fallen in love with Valentine’s Day. And why shouldn’t it? Because Birmingham is officially the most romantic city in England.
Analysing key date-night features such as the number of romantic hotels, art galleries, museums, 5-star restaurants and more, Suit Direct has revealed the top UK cities guaranteed to “spark connection and create lasting memories.” The top of that list is actually Glasgow, but coming in second is none other than Birmingham.
“With three Michelin-star restaurants in the centre and 246 5-star restaurants, Birmingham is the perfect city for foodie couples. Whether wanting to experience the luxury of two Michelin-star restaurant Opheem, or a romantic waterside view from Brightsmith on the Water, Birmingham is sure to satisfy those tastebuds.”
Birmingham’s incredible food scene makes it undeniably one of the most romantic cities in the country – with a plethora of romantic restaurants to pick from. We’d also like to offer up romantic dining options like the breathtaking skyline views of Orelle; or the gorgeous and quirky decor of Brum’s latest Italian hotspot, La Bellezza.
It’s not just romantic restaurants that this city can offer on date night, however. You could hire a canal boat and sail down Birmingham’s iconic waterways; enjoy a spa trip together and wash away those daily stresses; or take your partner out for a cool cocktail or two.
