The Halyard at Ropewalks, Liverpool,
a Vignette Collection

A new territory in hospitality for Liverpool. A space which encourages intertwining of guests and locals through considered and experiences that connect.

The Halyard is a space which feels refined, sophisticated but not in a way that negates the past and the multicultural neighbourhood in which it resides in.

Our concept comes from the merchants of our city, those that were known as “The Life, Spring, and Motion of the Trading World’ and where we became the life, spring and motion of Liverpool.

Our hotel not only sits in Liverpool’s most exciting quarters; Ropewalks, but an international world heritage site, due to the outstanding testimony the city had on Mercantile culture. Our hotel is influenced by the merchants that made Liverpool an engine of globalisation but also the rich multi-cultural community it brought to the city.

Or lobby, restaurant and bar is beautifully crafted. Once you dig deeper, enter the corridors or the bedrooms you get to know the real Vignette Liverpool. Vibrant, colourful, all embracing and anticipating just what you need. An open space, where you feel right at home, a local in an everchanging melting pot of culture. Looks can be deceiving. This is a place with good looks and humble charm. Good, honest, Grandeur.

Vignette Collection Brand Pillars

The Halyard is part of IHG’s newest collection brand that gives guests an inspiring new choice. A family of one-off hotels where guests can indulge a growing passion for stays that are authentic, experiential and considerate. They are designed for those seeking both discovery and purpose.

It is proud to be here for the next generation of luxury & lifestyle travellers – the “thoughtful venturers”. Those who want to make positive choices, even while they’re away from home. With a discerning eye for both style and substance, and an eagerness to discover something new, they’re looking for experiences to share.

Each Vignette is proud to provide three differentiators.

One-Of-A-Kind Stays

No two stays are the same.

Every time you arrive at one of our hotels, you’ll be met with its own distinct style and character.

Memorable Rituals

The Halyard offers each guest the taste of the past. Liverpool has always been known for importing goods into it’s busy dockyards. The cocoa bean was introduced to Europe from Mexico in 1528 and was first imported to the UK in the 17th Century.  Surprisingly Liverpool still imports nearly 65,000 tonnes of cocoa beans. The majority of cocoa still comes from South America. 

To celebrate this rich history the Halyard is delighted to offer all guests its very own Champurrado short, an exotic Mexican chocolate made into a velvety hot drink, served in an authentic style eathernware clay cup. You can add a tot of the local lost Dock Rum to spice it up.

A Means For Good

The Vignette brand is committed to making positive change for people, place, and planet, by partnering with companies and charities that align with IHG’s Journey to Tomorrow.

The Halyard is honoured to support a very worthwhile local charity, Mytime. The charity evolved from their work supporting and consulting with carers at Liverpool Carers Centre. The Halyard is delighted to recognise the hard work and selfless commitment of these upaid carers and is proud to provide these carers with complimentary breaks away. Providing a short respite to these well deserving carers.
