Hotel prices soar in Liverpool city centre for Barcelona second leg

This coming Tuesday Barcelona will be in town for the second leg of their highly-anticipated Champions League clash with Liverpool.

Tens of thousands of football fans will flock to Anfield to watch the game - which will decide the tie after tonight's first leg in the Catalan city.

But for those who haven’t yet booked their hotel , the ECHO researched how much a last minute booking will set travellers back - here’s what we found…

Travelodge Liverpool Central

Located minutes away from the city’s best bars and eateries, the Liverpool Central Travelodge is a prime spot for newcomers to the city.

For two organised travellers, booking a three night stay in a double room , a month in advance, will normally set you back around £168.

However for those hoping to stay in the hotel from this Tuesday evening onwards, the price is £327.

The same can be said of high end hotels Aloft Liverpool and Liverpool Marriott Hotel City Centre, both of which have no rooms available on the evening of May 7.

Anyone looking for a bargain at the Holiday Inn will also have to get their skates on.

While prices for a three night stay in a double bed are on the cheaper end of the scale at £348, rooms are going thick and fast.

As the holiday season approaches, prices don’t seem to be dropping either, with a three night stay in June also costing around £390.

easyHotel, Liverpool

For guests hoping for a short and sweet stay at the three star easyHotel , on Castle Street , double bed rooms are available on Tuesday night for £194.99.

Like many other hotels, last minute reservations on a busy day for the city, have driven up demand, and prices at easyHotel are considerably cheaper later in the month.

For example, a one night stay on Tuesday 14th May will set travellers back just £44.99.
