Liverpool City Council says it has shortlisted three leading hotel companies - Accor, Hilton and IHG - to deliver the Knowledge Quarter project. A decision on the preferred operator and design is expected in late summer 2018.
The council says the creation of the mixed-use Paddington Village community will transform the former site of Archbishop Blanch School and forms part of the city's wider multi-billion pound Knowledge Quarter regeneration. Elsewhere in the Knowledge Quarter, it has been announced that the new £35 million northern headquarters of the Royal College of Physicians will be known officially as The Spine.

“For me, the most important thing is the networking. My business is in a small city and you need to be in an environment with people that are talking about ideas, giving you a new perspective. The workshops are also like having a family where you can talk about your main issues and they will understand.
