Liverpool - hotels and tours

For a hotel then in terms of location it would be hard to beat the Premier Inn Liverpool City Centre (Lime Street). It could hardly be closer to the Railway Station.

As regards sightseeing you should visit both the Anglican and the Metropolitan Cathedrals (Roman Catholic). The Met. Cathedral is very modern, however there was a pre war scheme for a much grander RC Cathedral (which would have rivalled the Anglican Cathedral)- that can now be visited- it is the Lutyen's Crypt and Treasury (at the Cathedral)- https://liverpoolmetrocathedral.org.uk/visit-us/the-lutyens-crypt-treasury/

At the Anglican Cathedral then as you would in London (at St Paul's or Westminster Abbey) try to get to Evensong.

It sounds hackneyed but you must get down to Pier Head and see the 'Three Graces' (the Royal Liver Building, The Cunard Building and the Port of Liverpool Building)- https://www.visitliverpool.com/listing/pier-head-%26-the-three-graces/1774701/ then take a Mersey Ferries Cruise and then walk along the riverfront to the museums etc at the Albert Dock.

The St Luke's Bombed out Church is another suggestion- https://www.slboc.com/

A HoHo bus tour (there are at least two companies doing them) would also give you a good overview of the city. Both leave from Pier Head (and other stops).

The Albert Dock has lots of places to eat. In the City Centre (and not far from Lime Street) you could also think about the Philharmonic Dining Rooms

I stayed at The Resident Liverpool which is about a 10 minute walk from the Lime St station.

The highlight for me was the Beatles Childhood homes tour. You have to book in advance.

I didn't go to Liverpool for the Beatles-related sights, but I found much to do in the city.

The Western Approaches HQ is a sort of northern equivalent of London's Churchill War Rooms, without the Churchill Museum component. I found this a very interesting place, with good explanatory material. It was still under development at the time of my 2022 visit, but still very worthwhile.

The Tate Liverpool, down at Albert Dock, exhibits modern art.

I found the International Slavery Museum, also at Albert Dock, very well done.

Much closer to Lime Street Station are the Walker Art Gallery and the World Museum.

Another vote for the Resident Liverpool.

I stayed at the A Hard Day's Night Hotel and loved it. It was in the center of the city and walkable to all the sights,

Also, definitely book the childhood homes tour of the Beatles by the National Trust if you like the Beatles. It was stunning.

The Slavery Museum and associated Maritime Museum are both fascinating, but unfortunately have just closed for a few years for a major refurbishment. The Museum of Liverpool is close by and the Beatles Museum is in Albert Doack, close to the Tate.
Good to see that someone has chosen to visit the blue side of Liverpool’s sporting venues. Make sure you drive by the new Everton stadium at Bramley Moor dock, opening next season - a taxi could easily do that to or from Goodison Park.

I've stayed at the Liner hotel. It's right next to Lime St station.
