The Beatles-Themed Hard Days Night Hotel opened last week and thanks to Stefano at Epoque Hotels, we were able to get our hands on some great snapshots by of the hotel's rooms, suites and public areas.

Just check out this killer shot of the John Lennon Suite which comes complete with a white piano. While the Times UK reviewer had some issues with the public spaces, you can't say this hotel won't make a Beatles fan very happy.

Check out more photos below.

Last week HotelChatter reported the opening of the long-awaited (oft-delayed) Hard Day's Night hotel in Liverpool, a Beatles-themed extravaganza of a hotel experience.

We haven't stayed there so we won't pretend we have, unlike the writers of the bizarre mixture of faux-reviews that search engines come up with. Anything from "clever touches of decadence throughout, as well as exclusive works of art by the famous Beatles artist Shannon" to The Times newspaper's damning remark that Shannon's work is "mediocre."

But we can put the hotel in context.]]> femmefatale 2008-02-05T09:00:02-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/1/29/1562/03733 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/3873/BeatlesHotelRoom.jpg" class="imgborder"><p><a href="http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/travel/holiday_type/music_and_travel/article3265843.ece?token=null&offset=0">The Times UK</a> got a sneak peek at the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Hard+Day%27s+Night+Hotel/local/1089"><b>Hard Day's Night Hotel</b></a> which is opening this Friday and will be the first Beatles-themed hotel to open (although certainly <a href="http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/travel/holiday_type/music_and_travel/article3265843.ece">not the last.</a>)<p>Initially, we thought this would be some sort of hack hotel, but it sounds rather cool.<blockquote><p>When the doors open on February 1 guests will be greeted by four statues of the Beatles over the cathedral-like arched main door. <p>A gold banister lined staircase leads up to the Brasserie and reception, where hundreds of sheets of Beatles' music hang from the ceiling and a frieze of black and white stills of the Fab Four runs like a film reel across the top of the entrance juliana 2008-01-29T15:14:33-05:00 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/10/25/143919/24

While the Hard Days Night Hotel was the first Beatles-themed hotel on the scene in Liverpool, it might not open in time to be the first Beatles-themed hotel taking guests.

That's because an 18-room Beatles hotel is planned to open soon. The owner is Sarah de Fermor who already owns the Lennon's Bar in town. The hotel will be named after one of the Beatles' song--Eleanor Rigby and is expected to open in two months. Meanwhile the Hard Days Night is set for a January opening.
