Great value, great location, and a great, full English breakfast is included in the price. My room is small, as is the bathroom (I think I have the smallest room in the hotel), but the rooms are clean and comfortable (and who wants to spend their day in their hotel room?), the staff is great and helpful, and the location by Lime Street and Central stations is conveniently central to anywhere you might want to go in Liverpool for the most part. Overall a great value.

This hotel was so friendly and the food was great! Everything about it was good. It was central to everything too.
I go to Liverpool quite a bit and this is the only place I will stay from now on.
Very reasonable in price, spotless and like i said EVERYONE was friendly toward myself and my friend.

For me, a single visitor on my first time 4-day trip to Liverpool, wanting to see all the various amazing exhibitions for the Biennial celebrations, this hotel is ideal. Warm and friendly from the moment I arrived. Had single occupancy in a compact comfy room (fab double bed - slept better than I do at home!) was made to feel very welcome. I cannot begin to describe the breakfast - bring loose clothing!! Such lovely ladies one and all (though opening a jar of Marmite was the giggle at breakfast-time - "need a strong man, love? No, a strong woman"!!!) About sums it up for me - lovely hotel, lovely city and being originally from London incredibly warm-hearted...with people who are genuine. Thank you Aachen, Thanks Liverpool - I will certainly be back.

Imagine you were the owner of a hotel that needed refurbishment. Imagine that you couldn't raise the capital to carry out the changes you wanted. The result might be something like the Aachen.

The stairs up to the rooms felt very old and dated but my room was pretty good for a three star hotel. It was a reasonable size and was equipped like a mini apartment - worktop area, sink, even a wine cooler(!)… however no cooking facilities apart from a microwave, so it didn't really feel like an apartment. The bathroom furniture was as stylish as anything I've seen in four and five star hotels and yet the bathroom walls looked like the walls you'd find on a cross channel ferry.

Aside from these quirks, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the breakfast was excellent. I went for a full English breakfast - fried eggs, bacon, black pudding, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried bread etc… a cholesterol packed, artery clogging start to the day and I loved it. The ladies running the place were very friendly and I enjoyed my stay. It's not a luxurious hotel by any means but is worth the money if you're on a budget.
