Inclusive Breakfast & Dining

Every room rate includes the Express Start Breakfast with warm dishes, fresh pastries, cheese, fruits, and juice. The on-site restaurant serves lunch and dinner, and the bar offers drinks throughout the day. Breakfast is served from 7am to 10am, with a "grab and go" option using provided bags.

Rooms & Workspaces

Each room has an ergonomically designed workspace, a flat-screen TV, and air conditioning. Guests can choose between soft and firm pillows, and the bathroom includes toiletries from the Australian brand Soak. The hotel provides a choice of queen, twin, or family rooms with private bathrooms.

Meeting & Business Facilities

A meeting room with views over the Royal Albert Dock is available for business events. The hotel offers direct access to public transport options within walking distance, including Liverpool Central Station. Business travellers can use the 24-hour front desk and luggage storage services.

Family & Pet Policies

Children under 12 eat free from the hotel's menu when accompanied by a paying adult. Dogs are allowed to stay for a fee, and the hotel provides pet-friendly rooms upon request. Families can request a room with a sofa bed or a street view for added space.

“This is a modern property that seems well-suited to visitors looking for a strategic base in Liverpool, particularly near the RopeWalks district. Breakfast is included, which is a definite plus, though reports suggest it can get crowded and self-service may not be for everyone. Still, the location and contemporary feel make it an appealing choice for those prioritizing convenience and access to the city's attractions.”

Really good Stay

helpful staff strategic location effective blackout super clean room
The staff displayed really good helpfulness and friendliness. I noted the strategic location, situated in a quiet area but very close to main attractions. I appreciated the very effective blackout curtains for a restful night. The room was spotlessly clean, contributing to an overall positive experience.
The absence of a wardrobe or luggage rack in the room made longer stays slightly inconvenient.
