Lovely staff, very friendly and helpful in pointing out places for eating and drinking. Tidy and clean and very reasonably priced. The lift wasn't working while we were there which was only an issue when carrying cases.

We stayed as a large group for a Stag Weekend, we found the rooms perfectly adequate for our requirements. My room was a double, it was clean and comfortable and had tea/coffee making facilities. The only concern I had was that the shower door contacted the shower head when the door was opened which might have been a problem if I had been "heavy handed". The major plus of the whole establishment was the staff, they could not have been any friendlier or more helpful, top class.

Found a last minute cancellation, for the price it was well worth it. Staff pleasant, smooth check in experience, wouldn’t let me friend through to the room although I understand it may be for security reasons. Comfy beds, nice en-suite, the only downside was the air-con that makes a noise and couldn’t turn it off. All in all for the price I thought it was very good and worth it- would stay again!

It was perfect for what we needed. It is next to a pub that was packed in garden when we stayed so that was loud but didn't bother us. There was no dishcloth or tea towel so was tricky to wash up. Great location was about 10 minutes from station, lots of food places and pubs nearby.

Only two issues. Both minor. Kettle wouldn't switch off automatically. Wouldn't pass a pat test. Unexpected fire alarm sounding at 5 am. Luckily it was canned immediately so not real but could have done without it.

It was clean but the TV was not working and the toilet seat was loose. There was a pub/restaurant nextdoor. The location is good, near a number of good restaurants, close to the two cathedrals and the Uni campus.

i received a lovely warm welcome to cocoon. it is a little walk from the city centre which is not too bad however the final stretch can feel like uncomfortable especially late at night and as a female walking alone. the hotel itself was as to be expected for the price. i opted for a room with no window. i was preparing myself for it to be really warm through my stay but actually it was really well ventilated. i ended up cold through the night which is very unusual for me! there’s also a desk fan provided. the room was basic but comfortable. it is definitely rough around the edges and upon closer inspection, needs a deep clean but for the price paid i really cannot complain! if i find myself in liverpool again i will be checking availability here again!
