Young woman, 22, found dead in famous Adelphi Hotel was killed in 'accident' cops reveal

A young woman whose body was found in an iconic Liverpool hotel yesterday died in an accident, police have announced.

Officers from Merseyside Police were called to the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool city centre at around 6.37am on Saturday.

There were concerns for the woman's safety prompting the call-out to the Britannia-owned business, the Liverpool Echo reports.

Officers arriving at the scene found the body of a 22-year-old woman in one of the hotel’s rooms.

Police also attempted to track down the woman’s next of kin as enquiries continued.

Three men, a 26-year-old, a 46-year-old and 49-year-old, were arrested on suspicion of murder following her death.

But cops said today they have now all been released with no further action.

The Mirror reported on the incident yesterday, which prompted cordons to be erected outside the front door of the hotel.

A Merseyside Police spokesperson said: "A file is being prepared for the coroner after a post-mortem concluded that a 22-year-old (correct) woman, who died at the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool city centre, died as a result of accidental death.

"Three men who were arrested on suspicion of murder during the investigation into the unexplained death have been released with no further action."

Cops appealed for information about the incident and urged anyone with further information to come forward.

Detective Chief Inspector Lynsay Armbruster then said: “We are in the very early stages of the investigation, and are trying to determine the circumstances around the young woman's death.

“I would appeal to anyone who was in the hotel in the early hours of this morning who may have seen, or heard anything, at all to come forward.

The hotel became incredibly popular in the early 20th century with wealthy passengers who set to cross the Atlantic on ocean liners such as the Titanic.

Over the years famous guests have included Sir Winston Churchill, Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland and Bob Dylan.
