‘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 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.

Beatle Along To Liverpool’s Waterfront Attractions

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Liverpool has an amazing array of attractions to recommend: the Beatles connection (obviously); the football stadiums; the historic buildings, the docks and, of course, the vibrant nightlife. Bringing this to the attention of the public, via its 2008 European Capital of Culture award, has secured its position as one of Europe’s top cities for leisure and commerce. Little wonder, then, that we at Serviced City Pads have so many serviced apartments in Liverpool – over 440 in all.

One of the city’s main attractions has to be The Beatles Story, one of numerous reasons to rent luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool’s Albert Dock district. It chronicles every highlight of the Fab Four’s career, as well as exploring some little known facts. For example, did you know that in 1995 Paul McCartney opened the Liverpool Institute for the Performing Arts (LIPA)? Or that Yoko Ono is a world-renowned artist? The two are connected as during 2008 the centre showcased an exhibition of murals by Hollywood set designer Gidon Bar-oz – one of LIPA’s first students.

The city has an impressive maritime heritage, as well. It was the starting point for the Tall Ships’ Race (in 2008), and every year hosts numerous exhibitions with a nautical feel. The Maritime Museum is worth a visit, amongst other compelling attractions. A ferry across the Mersey is essential to see the majestic waterfront in all its glory. To complete the experience, book luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool’s redeveloped dockland quarter. We at Serviced City Pads recommend our Liverpool serviced Trafalgar Apartments, located in a historic Georgian warehouse, as being among the best.

Liverpool’s Football Legacy

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Liverpool is not only famous for the “Fab Four”; it has a stunning soccer history, too. Even if you don’t support either of the clubs, renting accommodation in Liverpool is essential if you’re a “footie” fan. The modern, state-of-the-art stadiums for Liverpool and Everton have not yet materialised – meaning Premier League matches still take place in the iconic stadiums of Anfield and Goodison.

No disrespect to Everton fans, but one of the best ways to explore Liverpool’s football heritage is by visiting the Anfield museum, which tells you the full history of the club. Until 1892 it was the home of Everton. The empty premises got a new manager, and Liverpool FC was born.

You can extend your football experience further, by booking a stadium tour. When matches aren’t playing, you have the opportunity to walk down the hallowed tunnel onto the pitch itself – complete with a crowd roar, played at full volume!

Liverpool serviced apartments are booked for both business and pleasure – so why not combine both? The stadium tours and LFC Legends events are bookable throughout the year, and either are an excellent way to entertain delegates and staff.  Accommmodation in Liverpool allows you to go about your professional business as well as indulge in a bit of footie history.

Alternatively, why not book tickets for the next league game, with an executive box in the refurbished Kemlyn Road stand? With swish dining boxes and executive bars, it’s the perfect way to finish off a successful corporate event.

Luckily, we at Serviced City Pads have luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool that will allow you to appreciate the unique culture, history and football of one of the friendliest cities in Britain.

Renting Luxury Serviced Apartments In Liverpool’s Heritage Area

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

Liverpool’s heritage has not always been worthy of praise. The city was once the centre of Britain’s slave trade, and what is now the fashionable Rope Walks area can be viewed with modern eyes through heritage walks, reflecting solemnly on the city’s past.

The area became synonymous with inner city decay. However, in the 1990s an ambitious regeneration project took place. Today, there are almost 100 listed buildings, among them Georgian town houses and old warehouses renovated into luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool. In Liverpool, heritage has been embraced rather than destroyed, and renting serviced apartments in Liverpool by the city centre places you right at the heart of it.

History students and culture vultures alike rent serviced apartments in Liverpool by the Ropes Walk quarter (named after the ropes that were once woven here, rather than the slaves being ferried off the ships) and “walk the walk” of British slaving history.

The walk starts at Pier Head, which was originally the site of the 18th Century George’s Dock. Here, great sailing ships would have berthed three deep before setting off for Africa, America and the West Indies. It continues past St Nicholas church – where slave manacles were once auctioned – to the Exchange Flags piazza, which is bordered by Grade II listed buildings on one side, and Liverpool’s historic Town Hall on the other.

The walk takes you past numerous smart Georgian homes, many now serving as luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool.

We at Serviced City Pads have numerous luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool, allowing you to study this fascinating area for yourself.

Liverpool is a set apart from the rest

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

The Beatles did so much for the exportation of Liverpool as a name and as place to visit. The Fab Four conquered the world of music, changing popular culture forever. They paved the way for so many bands, comedians, actors and all kinds of entertainers to be accepted into the mainstream of British and world entertainment.

Liverpool also has two major football teams which are constantly at the top of the Premier league table with full houses and rousing atmospheres. The rivalry is intense but Liverpool FC has the pedigree and bragging rights because of the amount of trophies they have won.

A beautiful, modern city is best seen from the luxury of serviced apartments in Liverpool. At Serviced City Pads we offer a variety of accommodation that can be easily booked over the Internet and challenges the stuffiness associated with hotel bedrooms. You won’t experience that staid feel you can often get at a B&B either.

Space, modernity and comfort are there for all who stay in luxury serviced apartments in Liverpool. There’s no getting away from the fact that experiencing Liverpool from a Serviced City Pads apartment enriches your experience, giving you the most memorable stay.

Staying in Liverpool for a conference or business trip will be all the more comfortable in a serviced apartment, and for a similar price to many of the hotels in region. The flexible nature of your accommodation gives you the chance to explore without feeling restricted. You can entertain guests or chill out on your own relaxing in our welcoming serviced apartments in Liverpool.
