Plans to build a Beatles themed hotel at the heart of Liverpool city centre are finally on track 13 years after the scheme was first mooted, the Daily Post can reveal.

Bowdena yesterday revealed it has signed a £10m deal with Cavern City Tours to refurbish the derelict Grade II-listed Central Buildings next to the Cavern Club, on the corner of Mathew Street.

It means the 120-bed Hard Days Night Hotel will take its first guests in December, 2006, as tentatively proposed in January when the scheme was awarded £2.3m European Objective 1 funding.

The Bowdena deal represents a dream come true for Bill Heckle and his Cavern City tours teammates, who first conceived the plan more than a decade ago.http://iccheshireonline.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0100regionalnews/tm_objectid=15499193&method=full&siteid=50020&headline=beatles-themed-hotel-set-to-be-mecca-for-fab-four-fans-name_page.html

This hotel sounds like some cheesy Elvis place in Memphis that also has theme rooms. I think I saw this place on the Travel Channel. Anyway, you couldn't watch regular old TV in your room, it was Elvis movies or nothing. Me thinks room service probably only delivers fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches too.

It looks like a cool hangout, but I think my hostel was right across from Strawberry Fields.

Strawberry fields. That's a salad at my cafe too...I don't like the dressing.

Today might be an awesome day to be in Liverpool. Champions League is later and it's the Reds v. Milan.
