Hotels in Liverpool in general

Introduction I've had to go up to Liverpool for work on a couple of occasions this year. The first time, back in February, I stayed in the Premier Travel in on Vernon Street in the city centre, which was perfectly adequate for its three star rating, although the room was a little shabby. This time, our administrator at work couldn't get me in to the same hotel, but managed to find a booking at the Albert Dock Premier Travel Inn, which is still not too far from the city centre - I have walked it in about 15 minutes and taxi drivers seem to know it well. I was expecting an adequate stay, but was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the hotel and services for the ...  Read the complete review

Right, so you’ve read my review of Liverpool and have decided to spend a few days in this fantastic city but where are you going to stay? Care to have a little advice from someone who regularly visits the place? Clearly I must be in an increasingly painful financial situation because the price bracket of the hotels I have stayed in during my three most recent visits to Merseyside has dropped each time.

Of course this is handy but it also means that the denizens who hang around the station at night are your neighbours. At first glance the hotel looks dated. The building is a chocolate and cream affair that screams 1970's. This however belies the interior, which is very swish having ...  Read the complete review

Advantages: close to town and university Disadvantages: small The Aachen Hotel which is located at 89-91 Mount Pleasant in Liverpool is a small hotel with a rather strange name. It is the most unpleasant sounding hotel, I don't know why they don't change the name. However, its location is fairly central and it is only a five minute walk to town and the train station. it is especially close to the University if that is your purpose of visiting Liverpool. Although I am not up to date on current prices, it used to be priced around 25 - 30 pounds a night which included breakfast. It only has 17 rooms of ...  Read the complete review
