Fodor's Expert Review Aloft Liverpool

No. 1 North John St., Liverpool, Liverpool, L2 5QW, England

The architecture and the original features are the real star of this hotel in the city's landmark Victorian Royal Insurance Building, including green-marble wall tiles, sleek dark-wood paneling, and a grand staircase winding up to a domed rotunda. The loft-style rooms and suites themselves are contemporary and high-tech without being jarring; features include giant beanbags and super-comfortable platform beds. The communal spaces are welcoming, too: WXYZ Bar, NYL Restaurant & Bar, and Re-Fuel café with snacks and light bites.

PROS

  • central location near city's main attractions
  • good snack bar
  • hip Bliss Spa toiletries

CONS

  • noise from the bar can transfer to rooms
  • some rooms have odd layout due to historic building
  • some rooms are in the basement
