Liverpool Try the hop-on, hop-off bus tour. It is the best way to get around town. The Docks is a cool place to visit.
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool This hostel felt like more of a hippie commune than a hostel. The staff was very welcoming, and it was a joy to hang around. The TV room has movies to watch, and there's a pool table downstairs with the kitchen. It's a very cool place to stay. It is a bit far from the city center, about a 15 or 20 minute walk. But everyone knows the hostel, and it is very easy to find.
Liverpool International Inn in Liverpool Brilliant stay. This place has very friendly and helpful staff, free flowing tea and coffee, pool table, clean and comfortable rooms, no curfew, and it's close enough to the center to stagger home at all hours. It's got good security, new and cheerful decor, and it's generally excellent. Good vibes. Though there was only one pool cue and it was a kid-sized one. But with all the rest of it in there, we weren't too bothered about the pool cue!
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool It's a great place to stay; I recommend it to anyone. I've been there a few times and every time is the same — chilled out atmosphere with great people to have conversations with.
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool I stayed at the Embassie in August, 2003, during Beatlesweek. The staff was so friendly, and I got to know lots of wonderful people there. I really recommend staying there. It's very simple, and not so exclusive, but who needs that? I will definitely live there in August, when I will return to the great city of Liverpool.
Liverpool International Inn in Liverpool This hostel is great. Everything is really clean, the beds are VERY comfortable, there is a bathroom in every room, the common room is really nice, the staff are friendly and you can have toast, tea and coffee all day.
Liverpool International Inn in Liverpool It's surely no seven-star hotel, but neither is the price. Very good location, from where its only walking distance pretty much to anywhere. Friendly stuff and very good social rooms (kitchen with everything, living room with billiard table, TV). Special thanks from free toast and tea. Surprised positively to notice that hostels prefers fair trade trademarks. We highly recommend!
Inn Comfort in Liverpool staff were great and very helpful! Rooms were really nice and big and facilities great. will be coming back!
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool This is the best hostel ever! The place isn't perfect but the atmosphere is so friendly that you just forget about little imperfections. This is the right place to be if you want to meet new people and talk about everything with people from all around the world, hear Andy's endless speeches, and listen to Kevin's stories. This is a great place!
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool I stayed here in July of 2005.. I was backpacking for 3 months, and while this for sure wasnt the cleanest or the swankiest hostel I stayed in (nor was it the worst), it was by far my favorite.
The staff was unbelievably friendly, as were all the other guests. Everyone hung out together, I was never at a loss for something to do or someone to do it with. By the time I left, this place felt like home & I was sad to go.
The first night I was there I got in late and without a reservation.. the staff set up a bed for me in the common room without acting like it was the least bit of trouble for them, and then kicked out everyone who was there to the other common room in the basement.
It was an easy walk from the hostel to the center of the downtown (10 minutes)
Next time I am in Liverpool I will definitely be staying here again!!
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool I am about to return for my third stay at the Embassie!!! I can honestly say that the warmth of welcome from the Kevins and staff is better than anywhere I have ever been before. I cannot imagine a better place to spend a few days. Fellow travelers, company, stories shared over a drink or a coffee, sing-a-longs, joke-telling sessions (all long into the night) — the list is endless. The Embassie has provided me with a home away from home and no shortage of stories when I get back home! I recommend it thoroughly. If you are in Liverpool and stay anywhere else, you are clearly mad!!!
Liverpool International Inn in Liverpool Excellent hostel. I have stayed in hostels, both YHA and independent, and this knocks the socks off them all. Staff are excellent and friendly (even though Miss Silcock is a Liverpool supporter, but hey, we all have our problems). The hostel is well run and I can't commend it highly enough.
Embassie Independent Hostel in Liverpool I have stayed at the Embassie many times, It is a wonderful place. The Embassie is a beautiful georgian house. It is clean, although rustic, not filled with plastic and mdf. I love it and have been twelve times over the past ten years, its a home away from home.
