La Beauté Hotel

Right, so La Beauté Hotel. It's smack bang in Southport town centre, which is handy for the shops and, let's be honest, the nightlife if you fancy a pint at the Windmill. Hotels in town can be a bit noisy on weekends, mind, so pack earplugs if you're a light sleeper. They've got a solid 4.1-star rating from over 200 reviews, so most people seem happy enough.

It's definitely more of a couples' place than for families with loads of kids running around. If you're coming for the Open at Birkdale in 2026 (July 12th-19th), it's a decent shout as you can get the train straight there, but book well in advance – everywhere gets rammed. I can't see any info on the phone number or opening hours, so check out online for contact information.

It’s not the fanciest place in town, but it’s clean and the location is spot-on if you want to be right in the middle of everything. Plus, you're only a ten-minute walk to the pier!

Just a heads-up: parking in town can be a nightmare, so either check if they have on-site parking or be prepared to use the pay-and-display car parks, they get pretty busy.
