Back in October, many Liverpool hotels sold out almost immediately after the huge news the city would be hosting this year's Eurovision Song Contest.
The huge event, which falls on the second week in May, will take place in the city as the UK hosts on behalf of last year's winners, Ukraine. Liverpool had been whittled down to the final two potential host cities along with Glasgow, beating off competition from the likes of Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham earlier in the process.
A number of hotels and apartments pushed their prices up for the weekend, with some one-night stays on May 13 (the day of the Eurovision final) jumping to more than £1,000.
