Room was spotless... lovely and spacious..staff friendly and helpful...close to amenities
The Holiday Inn is always a safe choice if you want to travel in comfort. Spacious rooms, amazing breakfast options. Good location and staff always friendly and professional
Staff very welcoming and helpful.
Hotel/room very clean, bed very comfortable, room a bit smaller than expected
Great that it was only a short walk to the Albert Docks area.
Reception staff were polite, helpful and friendly. The whole place was spotless.
I particularly liked the linen which was really sumptuous and the bed was lovely.
The breakfast offered a variety of foods and was tasty, but the only drawback to the whole stay was that I would have enjoyed breakfast more if the "hot" dishes had actually been hot!
Nevertheless, I will certainly return.

Very clean and modern and the staff were very friendly and helpful
Great welcome from reception staff, we were only going to drop our bags off as check in was another 3 hours however our room was ready so we were able to check in and start our weekend. The whole hotel smelt nice and clean, all staff were friendly, room was lovely and clean. No view but we didnt need one as we had no intention of staying in. Breakfast was great with plenty of choice. Hotel is in a great central spot with Duke St Food Market just up the street with loads of food choices.
Hotel is in walking distance of Liverpool One, the Anglican and the Catholic Cathedrals and restaurants. It is clean, comfortable and the breakfasts are full English breakfasts!
Excellent place to stay in Liverpool city centre. Great facilities, spotlessly clean, fabulous breakfast, and wonderful staff. Highly recommend Holiday Inn Express on Duke Street!
