Each room features antique furnishings, local artwork, Freeview TV, and either a walk-in shower or roll-top bath. The ground-floor Ziba Restaurant, known for sourcing ingredients from the family's organic farm, operates in a light-filled space with large arched windows. A full-length pewter bar serves an extensive whisky and gin selection, complemented by free Wi-Fi and cozy seating areas. The Liverpool hotel provides fitness center access and squash courts for active guests. Business travelers benefit from multiple meeting spaces accommodating both intimate gatherings and conferences for up to 130 people.

Pros

Historic naval connections with the Western Command provide unique character

Family-run establishment with personalized service approach

Eclectic art collection featuring local artists from the 1960s to present

Flexible event spaces suitable for both intimate gatherings and large functions

Cons

Limited to 8 rooms, which may affect availability

Located 9.5 miles from Liverpool John Lennon Airport

“This address strikes me as a particularly appealing option for smaller wedding parties and corporate gatherings. I especially appreciate its advantageous location near Liverpool's vibrant cultural heart, including the Western Approaches Museum and Albert Dock. The opportunity to dine at the award-winning Ziba Restaurant certainly sweetens the deal.”
