The Titanic is one of Liverpool’s most luxury hotels and over the years it has played host to A-List popstars, Premier League legends and high profile visitors to the city. Last night, The Titanic Hotel was awarded Bronze in the VisitEngland Awards for Excellence 2025, in the large hotel of the year category.
The waterfront hotel is often where footballers first stay in the region immediately after they join one of the city’s two Premier League clubs. The ECHO reviewed the hotel in 2023 and potentially got a look inside one of the rooms pop star Taylor Swift, or members of her team, stayed in.
Rooms on the top floor of the four star hotel boast large bay windows which enable you to soak in a panoramic view of the city’s waterfront.
If your room is on the left of the corridor, guests are able to take in Liverpool’s storied history as you can enjoy views of the Grade II listed Tobacco Warehouse. If your room is on the other side then you get a glimpse of Everton FC’s Bramley Moore stadium.

The Presidential Suite is the most luxurious room available and rates start from £384 if you book in advance. The rooms at the Titanic boast a nod to to the hotel’s theme with a rotary dial phone and 1920s-style ship paintings adorning the walls.
The hotel also features the Maya Blue Wellness Spa, which gives guests the opportunity to unwind. The Maya Blue Wellness Spa boasts a hydrotherapy pool, foot baths, saunas and a steam room.
