Reviews of Lord Nelson Hotel by Compass Hospitality describe a budget-friendly stay with very welcoming staff, but an aging building and rooms that vary in comfort, alongside mixed cleanliness and generally simple continental breakfasts.

The Nelson Hotel was perfectly located for us; minutes from Lime Street station, a short walk to the bus station, a short walk to the docks, plenty of restaurants and pubs in the area. The Walker Gallery and a Theatre are a stones throw away too. The staff at the hotel were all really friendly and helpful and we were made to feel very welcome. The room was clean and the beds comfortable. Breakfast was included - tea & coffee, fruit juice, toast, crumpets, yogurts, pre packed pastries, slices of ham and cheese and fruit. No cooked breakfast but I did see hard boiled eggs one morning. Fine for us. The hotel is quite tired looking from the outside and on the stairs and in the hallways but that wasn’t a problem for us. This is a budget hotel and it ticked the boxes. Would I stay again? Yes.

Ok for one night...noisy outside but was expected. Would have helped if the windows shut properly. Could be a good hotel if everything was updated. Bed was almost collapsed ...room was filthy & dusty behind the furniture. Water was dangerously scalding hot. Breakfast was OK & luckily our neighbours were quiet.

Hotel was well located and the staff did there best but were limited in what they could do. They had a hand written sign saying they only took cash payments on Friday and Saturday and I wasn't informed in advance so I only had card payment available. After a uncomfortable exchange I had to write all my card details down to get my room. Although breakfast is free my floor number meant it was pointless as I had to leave before the time allocated. A few broken parts in the bathroom but I could navigate around them. The bedroom was comfy and a had a kettle and TV and cost hangers and it was generally quiet which was nice.

The hotel is old and a bit worn-out, still clean and comfortable bed. All you need for a short stay in city centre for budget price. Continental breakfast is little more than continental. I could recommend to invest in a coffee machine to make the Continental breakfast + perfect. Nice staff.

I came up to Liverpool for a few days for the golf and this hotel was perfect for me. Don’t judge a book by its cover because inside it’s a comfortable and welcoming place to stay. Everyday when I was out, the staff would change the towels and was always on top of the cleaning. The free continental breakfast was great which filled me until lunchtime. If you are looking for a affordable place to stay In Liverpool next to Lime Street station, then this hotel is for you.

The staff couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful, but I really wish the floor had been hoovered in my room - there were crumbs/other unidentifiable bits of dirt on the carpet; also, the throw on the bed had stains, and the mattress was uncomfortable. Still, it was very cheap and close to the station.
