We stayed in this hotel for two nights on a weekend in Dec 2012. We had booked the room via frequent flyer points and wanted something close to the station as was travelling with my 11 month old. The location of the hotel is great as it is walkable from the train station and very close to the main market... More

A cheap trip with a freind, room large,and comfy, food OK, staff fine, though packed in like sardines alongside coach loads. Spa nice and reasonable though some local members were rude. Location really handy. Because of the age of the building it was not really suitable for people with walking problems. Lots of small staircases, a wheelchair lift into the... More

I stayed two nights and I can guarantee the hotel isn't value for money! the staff were very rude and as far as I am concerned the pictures were very deceiving as the hotel wasn't clean, bed was uncomfortable, the TV was bad, I came across trays of dirty mugs by the lifts on various floors, the room was old...

Where do you start? The junkies on the stairs. The toilets that don't flush. The noise. Really it's a glorified knocking shop. You can probably rent rooms by the hour. Dante's inferno has nothing on the Adelphi. Sleep in a doorway, it's probably a cleaner experience.

The grand exterior, location, and photos on the net all sell this 3 star hotel. However, the experience was somewhat different to expectations. Some of the points being BEDROOM Dust on all furniture, tv, lamps etc A very small old TV but more importantly the plug had no back on it so the electric wires were all the open and... More

Oh God, its a wornout place. And dirty rooms, one can not clean the rooms more, because its stuck. The dirt is stuck. I am only here because its a venue for a congress, but next time in Liverpool, I will take a newer hotel. Its full of elderly, no business men, probably, because its too f***ed up. The staff... More

You know the rest. This is a grand hotel, the public areas of which are lovely. I understand they have been used for films and TV etc. Check in was good, staff were nice and friendly. No fault there at all. My room was, well, weird. A weird door opened into a room with bedroom and separate bathroom. The bathroom... More

We have stayed at the Adelphi on more than one occasion. It's old - there's no doubt about that - but it's the history of the place that's part of it's charm. Yes - it needs updating but you get a real sense of the glamour this old hotel used to have. Unfortunately the three women in the main bar... More

It's the third time in this hotel as this year I've joined for the third time the Liverpool Tattoo Convention as tattoist. I am sure it will be the last one. Every year is worse and the hygiene is the main complaint. Rooms dusty, dated, no lighted up enough and cold. The central heating was not working. Washbasin and wc... More

I knew I was booking one of the most charismatic and oldest hotels in Liverpool, but I did not know it would be such a piece of art. Do no expect the most comfortable hotel on earth, but still the beds are absoluetly fantastic. Wifi connection was quite poor, so I would think twice before booking for several days in... More
