Liverpool's heart is the Mersey River, and so the city is strung out along the river. The Airport is just on 7 miles (11kms) up river at Speke, and that makes some careful planning necessary if you mean to overnight in Liverpool, before flying out from the newly rebuilt and renamed "Liverpool John Lennon Airport".
Pre booking a hotel through our booking service is probably the most convenient way to ensure you get accommodation that understands the needs of air travellers, and provides airport transfers as a matter of course. A night's stay in a good hotel , and a fresh and bright start at the check in next morning is a great way to travel. So, take advantage of our hotel booking service, and next morning let us deliver you right to the terminal. You can phone us, or fill in the form (just above) and book in.
The Hillcrest at Widnes, within easy reach and offers comfortable traditional
hospitality.
The Campanile at Runcorn, comfortable and a quick run to the airport
A night's stay in one of our fine airport hotels is quite cheap, and will ensure that you take off at your best next morning. You'll arrive feeling in good form, that way, too.
The expense of a night's stay near the airport is easily justified for business travellers. The opportunity to go over plans for the next day's meetings, and catch up on last minute details is worth every penny. Talk to your CFO now about short term accommodation . . . then talk to us. We'll get it organized for you. Our booking line number is 0870 737 7678.
People travelling in a family group can get a real boost from a short term accommodation package. Flying with the family can be a drain, especially with little ones. A night's break to regroup before the ordeals of check in and embarkation can make all the difference. Our short term packages at good hotels in the Liverpool area all use proven hoteliers. You'll get a great deal, a welcome break at a top quality hotel, and valuable rest before you fly.
There are some hotels pictured on this page. They are a sample of the many international standard hotels we have on our books. Experienced hotel staff can help you straighten out booking and ticketing problems as well as ensure a great night's rest . . . this has to be the only way to travel!
