A budget-friendly hotel can sometimes be challenging to find these days, with many options lacking comfort or being inconveniently located. However, a hotel in Liverpool is defying the norm by offering centrally situated, modern, and cozy accommodation starting at just £62 per night.
The Resident in Liverpool has secured the top spot in TripAdvisor’s ranking of the 10 Best Affordable Hotels in the UK for 2026. It is also deemed the finest hotel in Liverpool among 623 establishments and was honored with a Traveller Choice Award from TripAdvisor in May for its consistently outstanding reviews.
Housed in a historic 1800s warehouse, The Resident boasts a contemporary interior while preserving the charm of the original building with its red brick exterior and expansive windows.
Instead of overwhelming guests with unnecessary amenities like gyms and restaurants, the hotel focuses on providing comfortable rooms designed to blend pure comfort with luxurious British style and design. Despite being a budget choice, the rooms exceed expectations with crisp linens, plush cushions, simple yet inviting decor, and additional comforts such as toiletries and a Nespresso machine. Guests also appreciate the convenience of mini kitchens equipped with a fridge, microwave, and tea/coffee facilities for in-room snacking.
Although the hotel lacks an on-site restaurant, its prime location in Liverpool’s bustling Ropewalk neighborhood offers a plethora of dining options. Guests can enjoy local cuisine or have a breakfast delivered via Deliveroo. Nearby, the Duke Street Food & Drink Market provides an indoor street food experience with global culinary offerings.
Just a brief stroll away lies the Royal Albert Dock, home to various cultural attractions like the Tate Liverpool, Maritime Museum, and Beatles Story Museum. The hotel’s proximity to Liverpool Central station (a five-minute walk) makes it convenient for travelers to explore the city without the need for a car.
During the evening, the Ropewalk area comes alive with vibrant nightlife, yet guests can retreat to their tranquil rooms, shielded from the noise. Nearby establishments like Heebie Jeebies and the themed Alcotraz cocktail bar offer diverse entertainment options, from live music to immersive cocktail experiences.
