Celebrate in Style

Friday, April 2nd, 2010

One of the most famous dates on the racing calendar is the Grand National at Aintree in Liverpool. This race first took place in 1847 and is part of a three day racing event. Millions of people all over the world tune in to their televisions to watch the race which is renowned for the courage and stamina required to complete this arduous course. On the day itself, in April each year thousands of visitors flock to the course to watch the Grand National. One famous horse who won the Grand National three times in the nineteen seventies is Red Rum, who is now buried by Aintree’s winning post; a horse loved by the nation.

In April each year hotels near Liverpool airport are fully booked with visitors flocking to Aintree for the three day racing event of the year. It can be difficult to find a hotel that will be able to accommodate all the members of your racing party which can result in groups using more than one hotel. At busy times of year such as this, hotels near Liverpool airport are very busy, which can result in less than pleasant dining experiences as well as noise at night when you are trying to sleep.

An alternative is to book a serviced apartment in Liverpool with a company such as Serviced City Pads, as we are able to accommodate all party sizes. With our apartments you will receive clean towels and bedding for your use, as well as plenty of space and a peaceful night’s sleep.

Opt for serviced apartments in Liverpool over hotels this year for a guaranteed high quality experience.

‘Bespook’ Corporate Entertainment in the Centre of Liverpool

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Booking luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool gives you the perfect opportunity to put a corporate hospitality or team building package together. Released from the confines of hotel hospitality suites, you have an enormous range of alternatives. The city is brimming with organisations supplying entertainment to both recreational and corporate visitors.

Shiverpool Ghost Tours is one such company. Formed in 2004, this enterprise runs entertaining ghost tours around Liverpool’s most haunted areas. The nightly excursions can accommodate up to 40 guests, and operate around several themes. For example, you can book a Hope Street tour, ‘Auld City Shivers’ tour, Docklands and Mariners tour and so on.

Despite one tour being called the Horror at St George’s Hall, the emphasis is more on light-hearted fun than being scared witless. Costumed guides bring history alive by regaling you with stories of the city’s dark past, and a few hidden surprises. Some are laid on – others are not. It’s up to you to decide which is which.

There is also a bespoke – or rather, bespook – service for groups of 15 or more, engineered to your specific requirements. Shiverpool Tours are keen to point out that all the tours are based on research and fact. All they add is a touch of theatricality. Combined with our luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool, it is perfect corporate entertainment.

We at Serviced City Pads would like to reassure you that, while our serviced apartments in Liverpool are conveniently located for Shiverpool tours, none of them are haunted!

The Mersey Ferry fleet is still going strong

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

No matter what your reason for renting luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool, you’re sure to start whistling the famous song the moment you see your first ferry crossing the Mersey. It’s an iconic image that hasn’t changed since the 1960s, when Gerry Marsden first penned those famous words.

There have been ferries crossing the Mersey since Mediaeval times – they were recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. In the 14th century, Birkenhead Priory ran the service to the tiny village of Liverpool. Following the dissolution of the monasteries, the ferries were run as privately owned, fully rigged sailing ships. Not a good idea, on a foggy river with little wind!

Literally hundreds of ferries have come and gone over the years – including fully rigged sailing ships. Not a good idea in a narrow shipping channel with heavy fogs and little wind!  In 1914, the SS Iris and Daffodil served as troop ships, resulting in the word “Royal” being added to their names. The Royal naming tradition continued until 1960, when a new generation of “super modern” diesel ferries were launched. Their grand titles – Woodchurch, Mountwood and Overchurch – were names of post-war housing developments! Given a total refit in the 1990s, they were renamed Snowdrop, Royal Daffodil and Royal Iris  – the latest generation of “Royal Flowers” on the Mersey.

We at Serviced City Pads have a number of serviced apartments in Liverpool’s waterfront district, where you can watch these historic vessels chugging away to your heart’s content. To learn more, book accommodation in Liverpool and head for the fascinating maritime museum.

The Mersey Adventure

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Many people book accommodation in Liverpool to explore the water. It does have rather more than its fair share, with both the Mersey river and the Manchester Ship Canal to choose from. Both offer cruises and excursions – a fascinating way to explore the Wirral’s industrial and natural heritage.

Even if you aren’t a fan of the water, you can’t book into serviced apartments in Liverpool without taking a Ferry across the Mersey. No other river crossing has attracted so much attention – it even had a song written about it. As well as regular crossings to and from the Wirral Peninsula, the Mersey Ferry company (operating under Mersey Travel) offers the Big Mersey Adventure, River Explorer cruises, Manchester Ship Canal cruises and Special Cruises with live bands. If you regularly book luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool for business purposes, check out Mersey Ferry boat chartering – a much more original venue for a corporate function than the usual tired conference room.

The Mersey has been running a ferry service since the 12th century or earlier, and over the years has seen hundreds of vessels come and go. The current fleet dates from the 1960s, and it’s thrilling to think you can stand on the same hallowed decks the Beatles used. Most cities would have scrapped their fleet long before, replacing it with modern vessels.

Whether you are renting serviced apartments in Liverpool for business or pleasure, we at Serviced City Pads guarantee you’ll be crossing the Mersey again and again.

Retail Therapy In Liverpool One

Monday, January 11th, 2010

People rent accommodation in Liverpool One for both business and pleasure. Previously called The Paradise Project, work was started in 2004 and finished in 2009. The aim of the project was to redevelop 42 acres of underused land in Liverpool’s city centre, to create a major retail, residential and leisure park.

When people rent luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool One, their minds immediately turn to shopping. And it’s true that despite the leisure centre, offices and residential premises (some of which are rented out as serviced apartments in Liverpool) Liverpool One is first and foremost a shopping centre. It is anchored by the department stores of John Lewis and Debenhams, and incorporates a multi-screen Odeon cinema.

Liverpool One was built to give Liverpool’s economy a boost by creating jobs and lifting its retail profile. It has done this admirably – Liverpool One is one of the largest and busiest shopping centres in Europe and we’re delighted to be able to offer apartments in Liverpool right at its heart.

The gleaming glass and steel covers hundreds of years of history but, to be fair, the real vandalism was already done in the 1940s, when the Liverpool blitz destroyed the old buildings standing on the site. During initial excavations in Chavasse Park, archaeological investigations were undertaken, as the park covered these ruins. There was some excitement in 2008 when Channel 4 filmed a Time Team Special, excavating the Old Dock now covered by Canning Street car park.

We at Serviced City Pads have luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool One, that put you right in the centre of one of the UK’s top retail districts. A visit to the city museum will tell you all about the history that lies buried under it. Visit our site to see some of the apartments in Liverpool we have on offer.

The Liverpool Empire is the largest two-tier theatre in Britain, and regularly hosts top name productions, plays and musical events. With Lime Street Station next door and the Royal Court, Liverpool Playhouse and Liverpool Academy close by, this is the centre of Liverpool’s arts scene. When heading out from your hotels in Liverpool, restaurants assume you are there for a show and treat you accordingly.

Whatever the occasion, we at Serviced City Pads guarantee we have the perfect serviced apartments in Liverpool for you.
