Children of any age can stay at the York Street Studios as long as they are accompanied by an adult. An adult is considered to be those aged 21 years and above. However, the York Street Studios have been designed especially for adults looking for a fun filled stay in Liverpool so this may not be the most appropriate environment for those underage – why not try one of our other properties nearby.

Our properties offer additional services which you can add-on to your stay should you require. You can do so when making your booking online or upon arrival at the property. Please see the specific property website for which Add-Ons are available and their associated costs.

It is possible to simply turn up at a Town property on the day and book online if we have rooms available for that night. However, it’s much less risky and you will get the best price for your stay if you book in advance.

Please contact the property in advance of your visit to see if we are able to accommodate your ‘little’ friend. Please note, we can only consider accommodating domestic pets so all you highwaymen and lion tamers will have to look elsewhere.

We are happy for our customers to have guests in their studio but they need to be accompanied by the registered guest at all times for security purposes and they must not spoil the enjoyment of the studios for other guests or our neighbours.

Yes, we provide normal hotel housekeeping services on a daily basis (except Sundays and Bank Holidays) and all studios are completely cleaned (new bed linen and bathroom amenities) prior to new guests occupying them.

A Studio consists of at least two bedroom (with double beds), living room, bathroom(s) and kitchen. The studios can accommodate up to 10 guests. Of particular note is the lounge in each studio with a fully functioning bar, 70 inch HDTV and web cam (press the button and let the world see what you are up to).

We do not have bar or restaurant facilities within the York Street Studios. We like to focus on the core function of a hospitality venue which is to provide comfortable rooms at a competitive price. Also, we carefully select the locations for our hotels and serviced apartments to be within very easy walking distance of a huge range bars and restaurants – York Street Studios is no exception to this rule.

We do not offer breakfast at the York Street Studios at the moment. However, you can rustle up your own breakfast of choice in your fully fitted kitchen (provisions can be bought at the nearby Tesco on Hanover Street) or you could support one of our local, independent cafes, many of which produce splendid breakfasts catering to all tastes, shapes, sizes and budgets.

Open Key serviced apartment rooms are sold on the basis of the earlier you book, the less you pay and periods of high demand cost more than less popular periods. Prices will generally increase, as you get closer to your date of stay.

We cannot accept cash payments, all payments must be made by debit or credit card.
