However, the commercial district has shifted towards Old Hall Street and St Paul’s Square. A number of properties in Water Street have been converted to residential while Castle Street has become a thriving hub of bars and restaurants.
Tom Cunningham, director in the hotel capital market team at Savills Manchester, said: “This is a prime hotel opportunity for an incoming buyer with the opportunity to rebrand and add value.
“Tune is in a fantastic location, with Liverpool city centre currently undergoing a huge amount of regeneration. We expect there to be a lot of interest coming forward.”
