From the M62, finding the LMI is straightforward. At the end of the M62 follow the signs for the City Centre, Cathedrals and Universities (approx 3 miles).
Pass the Metropolitan Cathedral (‘the wigwam’) and at the T-junction you will see LIVMOVE opposite. The entrance to the LMI is at the rear of the building off Arrad Street, immediately behind LIVMOVE.
The nearest main line railway station is Liverpool Lime Street, which is 0.4 miles from LMI, a 5 minute taxi ride or a 10-15 minute walk up Mount Pleasant.
Please see below a list of nearby hotels compiled by the LMI.
