Please note the Sefton Hotel will be carrying out works to the front of the building which requires scaffolding between 1st January 2024 - 1st April 2024. The work carried out will be during the day and we expect little to no disruption to guests staying in our Atrium rooms, Standard rooms or Suites. Guest can still utilise the rest of the building. Sir Norman's Bar and Bonzai Restaurant will operate as normal.
