Getting from Your Hotel to Anfield

By Bus (Recommended)

The most reliable option for matchday travel:

• 917 Express: Runs from Commutation Row in the city centre directly to Anfield. Takes approximately 15 minutes. Single fare around £5, return £6.
• Bus 26: Departs from Liverpool ONE bus station
• Bus 17: Departs from Queen Square Bus Station

Buses run frequently on matchdays, with services starting around 3 hours before kick-off.

By Taxi

Taxis from the city centre to Anfield cost approximately £7-£9 and take around 10-15 minutes depending on traffic. Uber and local firms like Alpha, Delta, and A1 all operate in Liverpool.

Tip: Getting a taxi immediately after the match is difficult due to road closures. Consider walking towards the city centre and flagging one down, or use the bus.

On Foot

Walking from Liverpool city centre takes approximately 45-55 minutes. The route passes through residential areas and isn't particularly scenic, but it's a good option for saving money and avoiding crowds. Many fans walk back after evening matches.

By Train

There's no direct train to Anfield. The nearest stations are:

• Sandhills Station (Northern Line): 25-30 minute walk to the stadium. A Soccerbus service runs on matchdays.
• Kirkdale Station (Northern Line): Also about 30 minutes' walk

Tips for Booking Hotels Near Anfield

Book Early for Big Matches

Hotels near Anfield fill up quickly for high-profile fixtures — Premier League derbies, Champions League nights, and matches against top-six rivals. Book as soon as fixtures are announced.

Check Matchday Prices

Some hotels increase prices significantly on matchdays. Compare rates for matchday versus non-matchday stays to find the best value.

Consider Staying Two Nights

Liverpool has plenty to offer beyond football. Staying an extra night lets you explore the Albert Dock, Beatles attractions, and the city's famous nightlife without rushing.

Look for Free Parking

If you're driving, some hotels near Anfield offer free parking — valuable on matchdays when street parking is heavily restricted in the L4 area.

Read Recent Reviews

Hotel quality can change. Always check recent reviews from the past few months, particularly from other football fans who understand matchday needs.

Final Thoughts

Whether you choose to stay within walking distance of Anfield or base yourself in Liverpool city centre, you'll find accommodation to suit your budget and preferences. Hotels close to the stadium offer unbeatable convenience and matchday atmosphere, while city centre options provide more to do before and after the game.

For the best experience, book early, plan your transport in advance, and leave plenty of time to soak up the atmosphere before kick-off. There's nothing quite like walking up to Anfield with thousands of fellow supporters, hearing "You'll Never Walk Alone" echo around the ground, and experiencing one of football's most legendary stadiums.
