A very well run friendly place to stay. The free parking and easy walking distance to the centre of Liverpool make this hotel perfect for a visit to this fantastic city. The rooms are small but adequate and if you are lucky you’ll get a room with a view of the water.

There’s lots to like about this hotel - free parking, friendly welcoming staff, tea/coffee in the bar that you don’t need to pay for because it’s the same as those provides in the rooms, ear plugs but we couldn’t hear any road noise, clean rooms, and walkable to the centre and docks. The bathroom is compact but it does its job! Would definitely stay here again.

Good breakfast in nice surroundings overlooking the river. It wasn’t free and cost just under £12 per person. Room was comfortable, clean and quiet and easy walking distance to Albert Docks etc. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Room isn’t massive but does the job. My only issue is that you have a step out of the bathroom. Bit of a tripping hazard especially if you need to go during the night.
