Construction work has started in Liverpool on the new £20million Times Hotel by Vincent in the city’s historic Ropewalks district. 

The new 15-storey Times Hotel will overlook Queen’s Dock in the centre of Liverpool and will include a rooftop restaurant and lounge.

The hotel will feature a spa, gym and outdoor circuit training terrace. It is scheduled to open spring 2018.

Times Hotel by Vincent will join its sister hotel - the 4-star, 59-bedroom Vincent Hotel just up the coast in Southport.
