Hotel review - Hard Days Night central Liverpool

October 25th, 2011

So it’s been a while but I thought it was about time I had another cheap hotel review here on the blog, but to keep things interesting I wanted to review quite a quirky hotel. The hotel in question is the Hard day’s night in central Liverpool and as you should be able to tell from the name it’s a Beatles “themed” hotel. The Beatles are probably one of Liverpool’s best exports and millions of tourists flock to the city every year to get a taste of the city that produced them.

First I want to point out that the hotel isn’t just another cheap gimmick as it’s a quality establishment rated at 4 stars by the visit England group. It’s also situated in a great location on North John Street just about half a mile from the official city centre which is great. If you’re a fan of the Beatles you’ll also know that this is the same street as the famous Cavern club, so if you a fan staying in this area really will be the ultimate experience.

As far as amenities go you have all the usual ones you would expect from a quality 4 star hotel like 24 hour front desk, laundry service and wifi. But one of the other main benefits is the great restaurant “Blakes” and also cocktail bar situated right inside the hotel, so if you feel like a drink in a hurry there’s no need to rush out into Liverpool’s “sometimes” cold weather!

Pricewise I’m not sure if many of you would define this as a properly cheap hotel, as rooms are in the £100 per night range. But at the same time if you look at similar hotels in the centre of the city then Hard day’s night is quite good value for money even if it’s not in the true budget range. The only thing is you will have to book ahead as they do get very busy during weekends, which I suppose is the good sign too!

So that’s it for my first hotel review in a while, I hope to do more soon but it’s hard to know what type of accommodation people are looking for as everyone seems to want something different. For me it’s all about writing about hotels that interest me as well as finding cheap deals, when I’m on holiday it’s all part of the experience! Until next time.
