Even up until the 1970s the Adelphi had a little touch of class. Although I have never stayed there. When I was young my mates and I would wear our best clothes to go there for a couple of drinks before we went to one of the clubs. How times have changed.

My husband and I really love it that you love Liverpool as much as we do. We come from the south of England but we feel more at home in Liverpool. Liverpool is very welcoming and we love it that everywhere you go there's a pub buzzing and we've never seen any trouble with drunk people. If we bump into you up there one day we will definitely say hi! ❤

Me and my partner love Liverpool. We stayed in the Adelphi once and loved it. We had a massive room with hallway 4 poster bed lounge area. Did feel a bit spooky but that just added extra to the extra I would definitely stay there again. The lounge area is beautiful we sat on the leather sofa chilling and people watching whilst having a few drinks. And watching the football in the bar area. Just perfect. Plus every member of staff was lovely

I stayed at the Adelphi in December. It was an emergency booking made online at an hour's notice after a disaster with another accommodation I had booked and I arrived at 9.00 pm. My room was fine. It was clean and comfortable although the windows were very draughty. The breakfast was fine and it was cheap and in a great location as I was departing from Lime Street that morning. While it did not compare with the Leonardo where I had spent the previous night it was good value for money.

I stayed there 5 or 6 years ago. I, like an idiot, left a cash bag containing around £4000 from a church collection when we left and drove on to Bangor, North Wales. I didn't discover this until next morning. I rang the hotel to find that a member of the cleaning staff had handed the bag in immediately. I couldn't be giving away church money, so when I drove straight back to collect the bag, I left the cleaner £50 out of my own pocket. Can't complain about the honesty of the staff. Not the best place to stay, and the breakfast experience was like a cattle market, awful. But some things make up for a lot in other ways.

My parents met whilst both working at The Adelphi in the early 1960’s. Three decades later we visited Liverpool for a familyreunion and stayed at The Adelphi in a suite (with jacuzzi) on an upper floor for the weekend and it was lovely. However we used to go to a cafe around corner for breakfast as it was good value then. Nowadays if we visit family in Liverpool we prefer to stay at The Premier Inn at Albert Dock - lovely staff and great service. Great city with friendly people. 😊

I LOVE staying at the Adelphi and the fact that it is not modernised and like every other hotel. The dated bathrooms fill me with joy. And I'm not being sarcastic, I love it there. If they changed it so that it looked like every other boring hotel, I would stop going.

I agree. I cannot stand the homogenisation of the hotels, bars and restaurants in UK cities, so I seek out the so-called 'neglected' or 'dated' examples of each before they're taken over and get the life sucked out of them with bling.

Zorba’s restaurant looked fabulous! Great food, a great atmosphere and lovely staff. I sense that Liverpool is now your new favourite destination 😂 I must just say that Helen looked particularly glamorous. I know she does the curly girl method with her hair, as I try to, and her hair looked absolutely amazing 😍

Thank you so much Remony. I went to a salon in Barnsley in the morning that specialise in curly hair! Met a hair dresser called Jemima. The salon is called Studio Barnsley 😁 Helen xx

I used to get the bus home from Lewis’s dept store ,the big grey building caddy cornered to the Adelphi in the 1960s .It was very posh then ,I always wanted to go in but there were always doormen in the front.I eventually went in the reception area in the 1980s it was looking shabby then .Did you happen to see the men’s toilets ? I hear the room is all done in marble .havnt been in there myself.

Lovely……..but staying there why just why 😂 I stayed there when I was invited to the Hillsboro charity gig ( my friend was involved)me and my daughter were so excited to be staying in Liverpool and wanted to go to a club mainly the Cavern but after dinner the first night we wasn’t allowed 😮😂, we come from London 🤷‍♀️but my mates hubby said it was too dangerous for us to go alone , we were right peed off !!! Me and my grown up daughters went back for a weekend for my 50th and had a great time…the people were very friendly……..what shocked me was the fact that men held doors for us not like at home when they let the door slam in your face 😂🙄 Plus the Cavern was magical and they sang Hey Jude for me (embarrassing ) We didn’t stay at your hotel but in a Travelodge by the Mersey …..bloody lovely to go to the Beatles museum ect ect…..

You stayed in arguably the worse hotel in Liverpool City Centre! On a positive note though, you also visited one of the best Restaurants in Liverpool City Centre, Zorbas 👍👍 Welcome to our City, you just need another 40 years to understand how us Liverpudlians tick 👍👍

I had an ambition as a kid in Liverpool to stay at the Adelphi for a night. When I did many years later it was a huge disappointment. Also coincidentally, I used to go to Zorbas for a kebab after a night out locally - usually in the old Cabin Club across the road (sadly now closed down). Also visit the Phil whenever I am back in Liverpool - a wonderful place!! Your video brought back many memories for me.
