Ignore the bad reviews - this is a great hotel
Pros:

After reading some of the reviews on here I was worried about staying here. I usually stay elsewhere in Liverpool but needed somewhere close to Liverpool Lime Street. I give it 10 because my experience exceeded all expectations.

Cons:

The elevators but everything else was brilliant.

Mattress dilemma at the Adelphi
Pros:

Very central for our needs. Great to see the ongoing improvement ie carpets and new bathrooms. Lovely to see original features in parts of the hotel.

Cons:

Really would like to stay again but the mattresses are like sleeping on pebbles. Had to pad the mattress with towels to sleep. It's a huge downside for me and I have now stayed three times in different rooms. Having said that it is great value for the money.

There are more modern places to stay in Liverpool city centre. I don’t mind paying a little bit more for a more comforta
Pros:

Highlights the history of this building.

Cons:

Rooms were uncomfortable, no plug socket near the bed, not enough lights, having lumps with shades is not the solution
