Nice place, small rooms

It's well located, in queens dock, they have a restaurant, the personal is really nice, the view from the hotel and the room is amazing. What i didn't like was the size of the room, so small that my luggage i coundn't put it anywhere, the bathroom was really small, uncomfortable.

The manager here was a delight! As were the rest of the staff but he provided plenty of suggestions for things to do in Liverpool and further afield for the rest of my travels. Location is great, easy to get to by bus or car with easy free parking. Can easily walk into city centre and explore the docks. On site restaurant was okay - didn’t have much of a range though. Rooms are a bit on the smaller side but perfect for a night or two!

Fabulous place on the dockside with an easy walk to Pier Head, about ten to fifteen minutes. Excellent parking on site and a lovely bar serving very reasonably priced drinks. The room was spotless and great for a short city stay with all you need. Above all, the staff were absolutely brilliant, friendly, helpful and professional. I would definitely stay here again.

Simple rooms but clean and functional for a good price in a good location. Staff were all lovely and helpful. Only slight issue for me was the tiny shower but could put up with it for a night or two.

The hotel is a great location for shopping and events at the docks. The staff are amazing, friendly and nothing was too much trouble if we asked. The hotel isn’t all Bells and whistles (no aircon and the world’s smallest bathroom) but at its price point you can’t argue. Another hotel a short distance away is 50% dearer
