A Liverpool City Council funded hotel development will cost the local authority around £43m according to initial estimates.
The council revealed plans for a new hotel on the edge of the Paddington Village development in 2018. The 16 storey building, which has been paid for by the council, is now thought to be the tallest hotel in the city.
The four star Novotel is set to open later this year. The ECHO has now seen information about the public cost of building the hotel.
