Fantastic wedding anniversary, Everything was brilliant from walking into the hotel, the receptionist, Kiki ? Was so warm, friendly, and helpful . The room was huge with fantastic views and the food in the restaurant was lovely, the chef went out of his way to make sure I had vegetarian sausages with my breakfast each morning. When we left, the other receptionist, Martin, was helpful with our cases

“Modern hotel, well located for Liverpool's attractions.”

This was booked as a last-minute break on myhotelbreak.com, a company that I’ve used previously with mixed success, but this time is was a good deal. Arriving by car, the hotel is easy to get to, just off New Quay, one of the roads running parallel to the Mersey. It is well located for the dockside attractions, as well as the main shopping areas, both just a few minutes’ walk away. I should have checked directions for the car park in advance, which isn’t obviously marked (it is in Rumford Place - first left uphill from reception and then on the right, through the archway for Bulloch House), and ended up in the NCP behind the hotel on Fazakerley Street (£17.50/24 hours). We were checked in by Daniel, who was very friendly and helpful. When he heard it was our first visit to Liverpool he provided a map and marked on various places to visit, knowing we only had enough time to get a flavour of the city, which turned out to be some excellent recommendations. We were upgraded to a Premier room, which was L-shaped and had a panoramic window view out to the Mersey, with a partial view of the Royal Liver Building. The room itself was large and the first thing that was noticeable on entry was great air conditioning (it was hitting 30 degrees when we arrived). The bed was large and comfortable. There was a fridge (empty). Plenty of storage space. Plenty of power sockets to charge devices, including beside the bed. Large television with plenty of channels. Coffee machine with 4 coffee pods. The bathroom was quite small by comparison. A deep bath with overhead shower and secondary handheld shower. Plenty space to sit toiletries and mist-free mirror. Most importantly, it was very clean with no mould, which I always think is a sign of good maintenance. The hotel was very quiet, probably due to it being a Sunday, so breakfast was a combination of continental buffet and cooked to order, which I much prefer. Plenty variety and no portion scrimping. Staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the stay. Note that if you are staying for more than a night, the room is only serviced every 3rd day, unless you ask for it (there is a QR code to scan in the bathroom). There are spare towels in the wardrobe. There were a few parts of the stay that have dropped my review from 5 stars to 4. Some parts of the hotel look like they are a bit tired, but it does look as if there has been a revamp that is ongoing. There were 3 lifts, however only one was working during our stay, which wouldn’t normally be enough for a hotel with (I think) 12 floors – just as well it was a quiet Sunday. Not every pillow had a protective cover on under the pillow slip. This could be an oversight, seeing as they are clearly in use. I prefer a walk-in shower to a bath and found this one really difficult getting into due a combination of it being very deep and a limited space due to the shower screen. Overall, I was very happy with the stay, particularly taking the price into account. It meets the criteria that I set to measure any hotel stay – would I stay again and would I recommend it? Yes, to both.
