Victorian dock warehouse

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
the atmosphere is not only decidedly contemporary, but somewhat restrained as well — presumably late Edwardian pomp is not the vibe the Liverpudlians are crying out for.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Stanley Dock sits along the northern waterfront, ten minutes by taxi from Royal Albert Dock and the city centre.
The rooms
Loft bedrooms are cavernous, with exposed brick walls, tall casement windows, and bathrooms fitted with separate tubs and drench showers.
The hydrotherapy pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated indoor hydrotherapy pool uses air and water pressure jets, lit by floor lanterns beside rough brick pillars.
The spa
Ten subterranean treatment rooms use ESPA products, and daybeds sit under low brick arches in the relaxation lounge.
Thermal suite and gym
The thermal suite includes a sauna and steam room. Nearby, strength machines and free weights sit beneath arched brickwork.
Restaurant
Stanley's Bar & Grill
An open kitchen turns out modern British dishes under cast-iron columns, and tables spill onto the dockside colonnade.
At the table
The Rum Bar pours rums from Barbados and Guyana beneath vintage White Star Line graphics and warehouse brick.
How it began
The North Warehouse stored imported rum from 1855, surviving wartime air raids and decades of abandonment before its 2014 restoration.
