Crowne Plaza Liverpool City Centre
Crowne Plaza Liverpool City Centre stands on St Nicholas Place at Pier Head, right on the Mersey waterfront beside the Royal Liver Building. Most rooms look over the river, there is an indoor pool and leisure club, and the Albert Dock, museums and ferry terminal are all within walking distance.

Location
Few Liverpool hotels sit closer to the river. The Royal Liver Building is next door, the Mersey Ferries terminal and Museum of Liverpool are a short stroll along the waterfront, and the Albert Dock is under a mile away. Liverpool James Street station is about five minutes' walk, which makes arriving by train straightforward.
Rooms and facilities
Most rooms face the river. The Harbour Leisure Club has an indoor pool, gym, whirlpool, sauna and steam room, plus a beauty therapy suite. The Plaza Brasserie serves modern international food and The Lounge cocktail bar does lighter meals, with 24-hour room service if you arrive late.
Who it suits
It is a good base for a first visit focused on the waterfront and the Beatles and maritime sights, and the pool is a bonus for families. Business travellers and those in town for events at the arena will find it convenient too. The Royal Liver Building 360 tour and the waterfront memorials are steps from the door, so you can sightsee before breakfast and be back in the pool by late afternoon. The river views come into their own at sunset.
