"The overall aspect of the property was misleading, the property wasn't of a standard that I would expect from a Vrbo property or any rental property, the cleanliness was far from acceptable, massive cobwebs in a few rooms, stains on carpets, rugs that we really a bad trip hazards, the one at the top of the stairs which we moved, sofa bed not fit for purpose, stains on bedding, dishwasher didn't clean properly, no welcome pack, lights in the small bedroom wasn't working, mold and grime build up...

Top Liverpool Hotel Reviews

The Liner Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location"

Hotel Indigo Liverpool City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"The reception staff were very welcoming, but don’t look happy in their jobs. The restaurant/ bar staff were very helpful and polite, only fault was they let people vape while sitting at the bar. We had breakfast and evening meal the food was 10/10 something for everyone, best porridge I have had in a hotel. The room was nice comfortable beds, they need a little bit more of a clean, dust on the door frames was thick and bathroom door on the inside was sticky and dirty. Room 215 Overall the stay was nice, I would recommend and stay again."

Adelphi Hotel

8/10 Good

"Thank God my wife wasn’t with me. We would have had to change hotels. Since it was my son and I, we stayed. Here is a short list of the issues: no air conditioning, water stains on the ceiling and the floor, dirty shower curtain that clings to your body, no housekeeping or fresh towels, it smelled of mothballs and rotting fruit. The only redeeming things were the International BeatleWeek festivities. The event was well-run and a ton of fun."

Waterfront Southport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The waterfront is a man made lake and not the sea. The sea was a long way off in the distance over estuary sand. Beach is a car ride away. So not a beach holiday place. Posher, with pleasant promenade on the lakeside and also seafront overlooking very long promenade - currently closed. FantasticVictorian street with boulevard, canopied independent shops, statues and old buildings. Hotel is central and resort is lovely."

Pullman Liverpool

8/10 Good

"Location of the hotel, and staff. There was a delay in our room being ready after the normal check in time for which we were upgraded. Much appreciated."

Hard Days Night Hotel Liverpool

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, clean and tidy, everything you need in a hotel. Friendly staff and very helpful"

Atlantic Tower Hotel Liverpool By Sunday

8/10 Good

"Stunning view from the room."
