And don't think they'll be taking a break after that, either. Oh no. CEO Mark Lankester told <a href="http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2012/1/3/business/10176868&sec=">The Star</a> that though the Olympics is good for business, "we are in [it] for the long term." What this means is rapid expansion throughout the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2010/3/15/0044/77051/hotels/Tune_Hotels_Takes_Over_the_World_Plans_15_London_Hotels_and_More">rest of the UK</a>. And now we've gotten a few more details on the upcoming hotels, the first of which Lankester confirmed would pop up in Edinburgh and Liverpool (the city, not the London street) by 2013.

You almost can't avoid it, since the hotel sits at the entrance to the famous "Cavern Quarter," down which alley-like street you'll find the various underground music clubs that nurtured the young Beatles, The Who, and basically name any famous British musician from the 1950s through 1970s.

If you're an American traveling up to Liverpool, there's a pretty healthy chance that at least a portion of the trip is going to be The Beatles-related. And you know what? That's perfectly okay. There's pop music history all over the place in that city and they embrace it quite well, partially evidenced in the existence of The Beatles Story museum at Albert Dock.

And, if you're really serious about hitting all The Beatles hot spots, you'll probably either be staying at the Beatles-themed Hard Day's Night Hotel or as close to The Beatles Story experience as possible. For the latter, that means the Premier Inn Albert Dock. ]]> JetSetCD 2011-07-25T17:35:01-05:00 What Would Ringo Order from Room Service? http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/7/18/195655/696

The answer: not this! Despite the fact that both Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are vegetarians, the Liverpool Beatles-themed Hard Day's Night Hotel proudly features the "Hard Day's Night Burger" on their room service menu, ringing up at a cool 13.75 GBP. That, with the current exchange rate, is a $22.18 burger, a cost made up for by the giant potato wedges qualifying as gourmet chips on the side.

If it weren't for Ringo's history of stomach issues, maybe he would have ordered it. But you know what? We're still sticking with not, since the hotel features a Lennon Suite and a McCartney Suite, but no Starr Suite...yet.

The Hard Day's Night, or HDN as we'll call it for short, is an extremely new hotel for the areaopened in 2008situated in a striking historical building with a serious presence in the Cavern district. Every bit of the hotel is named for something Beatles-related; there's Blake's Restaurant (for Sir Peter Blake, illustrator of the Sergeant Pepper album cover), Bar Four (for the Fab Four themselves), and the Paul McCartney JetSetCD 2011-07-18T16:52:20-05:00 Search HotelChatter Search HotelChatter string http://www.hotelchatter.com/search/
