Football Spoken Here

Liverpool loves its FOOTBALL!  There are two teams in Liverpool -  Everton Football Club which play at Goodison Park and Liverpool Football Club which play at Anfield Stadium.  The Embassie proudly makes it known that it is a blue house - they support Everton.  However, if Liverpool F.C. supporters (known locally and affectionately as ‘Koppites’) can handle a little good-natured ribbing, they are welcome to stay as well. 

This is a great city for attending a football match, whether you have attended many times before or this is your first match.  The staff will help you all they can in obtaining tickets to the matches and getting to the grounds.  Both stadiums are near each other and the staff will tell you how to get there by bus or taxi.  The taxi fare is about £5.00 but you will usually find that other hostellers are going as well so you can share the price of the fare.

Although reservations are not required at the Embassie, if you are coming to Liverpool for an important match there is a good chance that others are coming for the same reason.  You might want to ring in advance and make sure beds are available.
