I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The room had a perfect view to watch the fireworks, and the large spa bath with a shower overhead was a great addition. The staff were amazing, especially the one who made a special juice for my sick grandson. The quiet location near the Docks was ideal, and I enjoyed the superb views of the city during dining. However, the breakfast could have been warmer and served on warmer plates.

This hotel is a gem! The rooms are spacious and modern with a double jacuzzi, 2 double beds, a kitchenette, and a jacuzzi bath, but it could use a dressing table. The staff is incredibly friendly and goes the extra mile to ensure a great stay. The location is perfect, right next to Liverpool underground station and across the road from Albert Docs, making it super convenient. The dining experience offers spectacular views over the dock and the city. However, the only downside is the lack of a dressing table in the room.
