We stayed overnight on our return from Dublin; we couldn't get a room at the hotel we wanted. Immediate impressions - cold, impersonal, empty, no life. The rooms have no decor whatsover, the floors are laminate, but a rug in the lounge and bedroom may have made a difference. The 'on-suite' bedroom came with a rather unusual bathroom - there... More

We were looking forward to out stay at The Block as online it looked like a really cool place to stay. We were not let down when we saw the apartment as it was very close to the pics online. However, the first evening of our stay was soon marred by the realisation that we had no Tv reception and... More

After much research I decided on The Block for a hen weekend for 17 girls. Close to the places we needed to go and with nice views of the city through the floor to ceiling windows and very affordable on a tight budget. Both the booking staff and reception staff were very friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean and... More

Spent a week at the block! 5 adults and 1 infant! When we arrived, we had no tv and no hot water in our room! We had the manager and head house keeper in and out until they eventually changed out room! VERY NICE PEOPLE!! Heating is excellent, Wifi is available all round, even though signal is not too strong!... More

We stayed for 2 nights and were very happy with our choice. The car park is a couple of minutes walk to reception and there's a 25% discount for guests, which made it £7.50 per 24 hours. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The outside of the building is very drab and we did wonder what we'd let ourselves... More

Just returned from a three night stay at the Block Liverpool, attending the RCN Congress, the apartment was ideally situated one minutes walk from the arena! Helpful staff on arrival, and a lovely apartment with views over the dock to the two cathedrals! The apartment had everything I needed, and even got a change of towels on the second day!... More

Was impressed by the website, price and location of this apartment block for a three night business trip to an event based at the Echo Arena. Location for this (2 minute walk), Albert Dock (5 minute walk) and Liverpool One shopping centre (10 minute walk) was excellent. The apartment block itself is very new but sadly uncared for in many... More

A group of 6 of us stayed at The Block April 11th. We were pleasantly surprised by the apartments. They were spacious and very clean. 2 bedroom, with bathroom and ensuite. They are right on the docks with a 10-15 minutes walk into the centre. I go to Liverpool on a regular basis and would most definitely stay there again

Stayed here for 2 nights while going to a gig in the city centre. The location is perfect and is only a 10 minute walk away from Liverpool 1. Plus there's a lovely steak house about 3 minutes away! The apartment was just what you need for a trip away from home. This is the 3rd time we've stayed here... More
