It's on the site of a filming location for Captain America: The First Avenger - and it's a marvel of a place to stay. Ted said of his room, pictured: 'As well as the dimensions, I'm also happy to firmly endorse the statement floorstanding lamps standing sentry in the top left and right corners, the smart ensuite with its rain shower and standalone tub, the sumptuous beds, the studded-metal bar complete with a duo of stools – and the transfixing links to the liner the hotel is named after' The DNA of the historical Grade II listed Victorian North Warehouse that houses Titanic Hotel Liverpool 'has been beautifully preserved outside and inside', says Ted This scene for Captain America: The First Avenger was filmed on Regent Road, which is next to the Stanley Dock location of Titanic Hotel Liverpool Captain America is pictured above in Liverpool's Stanley Dock, startled by his transformation My partner, six-year-old daughter and I were in a split-level dock-view superior double room with a huge double bed swathed in Egyptian cotton and a sofa bed on an elevated section at one end. The 153-room four-star Titanic Hotel Liverpool seduces with lashings of exposed brickwork, steel columns and alluring black-and-grey hues Pictured above is Stanley's Bar & Grill, where Ted enjoyed 'excellent fish and chips and a fine bottle of Chablis ' We learned this on a Liverpool City Sights bus tour that doesn't earn you any cool points, but does stitch some of the most interesting parts of the city together for you, with amazing facts revealed by a knowledgeable guide at every gear change. Ted writes: 'These days the Victorian North Warehouse looks almost unrecognisable from its screen appearances thanks to a £36million regeneration project that has put Titanic Hotel Liverpool centre stage on the site since it opened in 2014' Ted takes a bus tour of Liverpool, learning along the way that Liverpool Cathedral is the longest church in the UK at 188 metres in length Pictured above is Liverpool's Lime Street station - the oldest still-operating railway terminus in the world. And went on to perform there another 291 times Ted and his family hopped on a Mersey ferry cruise and learned that Birkenhead Park was the first public park in the world Back at the hotel, we snapped more photos in the epic corridor outside our bedroom – surely the widest in the hospitality industry – and then descended to the hotel's Stanley's Bar & Grill for excellent fish and chips and a fine bottle of Chablis, delivered by well-drilled and chirpy staff, who thoughtfully handed our daughter a little Titanic activity booklet.
