Fodor's Expert Review Aloft Liverpool

No. 1 North John St., Liverpool, Liverpool, L2 5QW, England

It's a lot about the architecture and the original features at this hotel in the landmark Victorian Royal Insurance Building, with green-marble wall tiles, sleek dark-wood paneling, and a grand staircase winding up to a domed rotunda. Meanwhile, the loft-style rooms and suites are contemporary and high-tech without being jarring; features include giant beanbags and super-comfortable platform beds. The communal spaces are welcoming, too, with live music in the WXYZ Bar on weekends, a pool table and booths in re:mix lounge, and good food in the NYL Restaurant.
