The UK’s Best City Hotel

Hope Street Hotel was named the UK's Best City Hotel in the annual The Times and The Sunday Times Best Places to Stay guide.

'The annual Sunday Times Best Places to Stay guide, featuring the very best British hotels, has become the gold standard of the industry over the past decade... Our reviewers have selected Hope Street Hotel as one of the best hotels in the country.' Duncan Craig, Travel Editor, The Times and The Sunday Times. As an independent, local business that has been operating since 2004, and now employs more than 100 staff, we are absolutely committed to finding ways of ensuring that we remain sustainable and successful - alongside colleagues across the hospitality sector and beyond - and we have worked tirelessly to introduce Covid-safe measures to ensure that the safety of all our guests and staff remains of paramount importance.

Government guidance says that if you are within a Tier 3 area, you may travel to hotels and other guest accommodation in that area. We look forward to welcoming local guests - to help support the hospitality sector and the wider Liverpool City Region economy.'

Dave Brewitt, owner and Chief Executive says:

'For Hope Street Hotel to be named the UK's best city hotel is a great accolade for Liverpool, and should be a time of celebration for the Hope Street Hotel team. However, the impact of Tier 3 restrictions has overshadowed this. The restrictions have already had a seriously damaging effect on the business, with hotel occupancy levels and restaurant bookings at an all-time low. Of course, the Tier 3 restrictions do not just affect the hotel - they affect all of our suppliers and everyone we work with, and have a huge impact on many other sectors in the local economy.
