How about:

\usepackage{multirow}
\begin{document}

\begin{table}[h]
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline
X                  & xx & x & x & x \\ \hline
\multirow{4}{*}{A} & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \hline
\multirow{4}{*}{B} & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \cline{2-5} 
                   & x  & x & x & x \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

\end{document}

enter image description here

Edit: If you don't like the lines:

\begin{table}[h]
\begin{tabular}{lllll}
X                  & xx & x & x & x \\ \hline
\multirow{4}{*}{A} & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x \\[1ex]
\multirow{4}{*}{B} & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x \\
                   & x  & x & x & x
\end{tabular}
\end{table}

  • Is the OP asking for all those horizontal and vertical lines?

  • Well, they can be very easily removed from the code provided (see my edit above). I thought the focus of the question was more about having "A and B in the middle of four rows".

    In my view, all those extra lines simply create clutter and thus actually make it harder to find the two crucial parts, which are the \multirow instructions.

    Much better... :-) I've taken the liberty of editing your second example to make it approximate the OP's sketch more closely.
