The best thing about The Lansdowne are the Concierge team. They are all really friendly and welcoming! The facilities are great with plenty shared space. The only thing I would change is the finger print entry system – it can make it slightly more difficult for guests, but the concierge team are always willing to help.

The location is ideal for exploring birmingham. Brindley Place & The Mailbox are a short walk away with options for dining & drinks. The canals are close by for walking as well as Edgbaston Reservoir. Transport links are great with Five Ways a short walk away.

amazing apartment
very good！The building is very good, but sometimes the fingerprint unlocking is slow; Sometimes things go wrong. Sometimes it’s painful when you can’t unlock the fingerprint with a heavy object. The staff in the apartment were also very good. Last time the dishwasher couldn’t work, the staff quickly came to solve the problem.

It just works!
The Lansdowne is always very clean and is incredibly well managed. Any little problems or questions get solved within minutes. The gym is very good, communal areas are also great, very comfortable. The flats are very high quality so you feel like you are living in a hotel. The sound proofing is also really good. We just don’t hear our neighbours.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There are bike racks in the basement so you don’t need to pay for bike storage. Also, dogs are not allowed in the communal lounges and I wish I had known that from the inset. It’s not really a problem but it would have been nice.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Immediately. No problems at all with getting repairs.

A satisfying experience and highly recommended
The design, facilities, building management and property management are all extremely satisfactory. In particular, the 24-hours concierge, the swipe-and-collect parcel lockers and the proper rubbish storage. It is very safe and convenient to live here.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
There is no doubt that this is the best apartment I have ever rented, perfect for my quiet and security needs. Five minutes walk to the Morrisons, Nandos and Five guys, and ten minutes walk to Bridleyplace and bar street. Separate rubbish collection is good for the environment.

Fingerprint-unlocked access to the property for security and convenience.

Extremely efficient! They have an online report system and any problem with the flat can be solved. My blocked toilet was fixed within two hours. The concierge offered to check on the delivery when I could not find it.

The Lansdowne – a great place to live
The building is well constructed and well insulated (I haven’t had to put my heating on in the 3+ years I have been there). There is no noise within the building which can’t be said for other developments I have lived in.
The facilities for residence are very good and well thought through as they look to create a community.
The building management team are always helpful and respond when you contact them as are the concierge.

Living in The Lansdowne for 3 years
The Lansdowne has all I need in a apartment building security, good gym, and other amazing facilities. For a 1 bed the room is a bit small for me but totally fine, however I wish the cabinet would be bigger and doesn’t break when I put heavy clothes.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
Living in five ways is the best of both worlds not crowded as the city center but has everything i need.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
