Waterford Hotel

Looking for a decent, no-frills hotel right in Southport town centre? The Waterford Hotel might be your spot. It’s adults-only, which is good if you're after a bit of peace and quiet. They get a cracking 4.9 stars on Google from 14 reviews, so they must be doing something right! It's a solid choice if you're coming for the golf, especially with The Open back at Birkdale in 2026 – book early, mind.

It's not a massive place, but the rooms are clean and you get free Wi-Fi and breakfast thrown in, which is a bonus. Ideal for couples wanting a getaway. I wouldn't recommend it for families, though, given the adults-only thing.

They're open from 7 in the morning until 11 at night, seven days a week, so you can always give them a ring on 01704 530559 if you have any questions. Their website is http://www.waterford-hotel.co.uk/ if you want to have a look at the rooms.

Just a heads up, parking in that area can be a pain, especially on weekends, so factor that in.
