What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
were it not for the portraits and the memorabilia ... this place would still be big news on the Liverpool hotel scene.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Mathew Street sits right around the corner, where the historic Cavern Club and neighboring pubs host live sets until late.
The rooms
Commissioned Fab Four paintings hang in every room, and deluxe doubles look out over a quiet courtyard garden.
At the table
North Sixty4 serves seasonal British fare beneath Sgt. Pepper artwork, and Bar Four mixes cocktails over green marble.
How it began

Local tour operators conceived the dedicated Beatles hotel in 1992, converting the 1884 mercantile building for Liverpool's 2008 Capital of Culture.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
