Pullman opens first UK new build hotel in Liverpool

Pullman, the upscale international hotel brand of AccorHotels, has welcomed the opening of Pullman Liverpool, the brand’s first ever UK new build.

Situated at King’s Dock on Liverpool’s world-famous waterfront and adjoining ACC Liverpool, the newly-built hotel will open as one of the city’s most stylish hotels, featuring 216 rooms, an all-day dining restaurant called Dukes and a bar and lounge with views of the River Mersey.

The hotel offers a range of en-suite room types including Superior, Deluxe and Executive, one Executive Suite and one Junior Suite.

All room types offer guests a range of amenities including mini bar, 40” flat screen TV with free movies on demand, complimentary Wi-Fi, indulgent Co. Bigelow toiletries, tea and coffee making facilities, spacious wardrobe and safe.

It will be operated by Branded Hotel Management under a franchisee agreement from Accor Hotels & Resorts.

Thomas Dubaere, managing director, AccorHotels UK & Ireland commented: “We are very pleased to be opening our second Pullman hotel in the UK.

“It shows the growth of our upscale brand and strengthens our portfolio in the city.”

As the ‘headquarters’ hotel for conferences and exhibitions taking place at the arena, convention and exhibition centre, Pullman Liverpool has been designed with the business executive in mind.

The hotel boasts three meeting rooms, a Connectivity Lounge, Fit Lounge with state-of-the-art fitness equipment, dedicated Executive floor with access corridor to the exhibition centre, a sleek Executive Lounge with seating for 35 people, and a multi-function room, that can be divided into two smaller rooms, with capacity for up to 100.

From the striking glass-fronted façade through to the rooms and public areas, the hotel design reflects the rich marine influence of the city.

The palette of materials used within the hotel is inspired by Liverpool’s iconic docks through the use of brushed copper, timber and stone.
