[Sport] Real Madrid flee from superstitions: they stay in Liverpool at the Titanic Hotel, on the 109th anniversary of the sinking

For those who believe in superstitions, the choice of the Real Madrid hotel in Liverpool must sound terrible. The white team, who play this Tuesday at Anfield Road the return of the quarterfinals of the Champions League, have selected the 'Titanic Hotel' in the city of The Beatles to stay during their trip. And tomorrow, April 14, marks the 109th anniversary of the sinking of the famous ship.

 

An anniversary that will surely give goose bumps to more than one madridista, aware that a 2-0 gives the 'reds' a pass. A merengue fans whose closest memories of Liverpool are the joy of the 2018 Champions League final, with a 3-1 victory, and the 4-0 defeat in 2009 at Anfield itself.

 

Beyond superstition, the Madridista hotel in Liverpool is a museum. It has been awarded as the 'Best Historic Hotel in UK'. It was formerly a rum factory and has been rebuilt after a significant investment of more than 40 million pounds. It is part of the remodeling of the historic Stanley Dock and is located in what was the North Warehouse, whose walls were damaged during World War II and which housed products such as rubber and tobacco.

 

In fact, the hotel rooms retain many original features of the old warehouse, such as exposed brick walls and vaulted ceilings. You can get the cheapest room for 100 euros.

 

Despite the fact that the Titanic left Southampton and most of its passengers had deep roots in the British Isles, the 'Titanic Hotels' have Turkish capital. They were built first in Antalya, Bodrum and Istanbul and later they reached Belfast, London and Liverpool.

 

The one in the capital of Northern Ireland is the most charismatic hotel, because it is built on the former headquarters of the Harland & Wolff shipyards, where the Titanic was built.

 

The Titanic hotel in London, also remodeled in recent years, is built on the building designed by Charles Fitzroy Doll, who also created the ship's dining room.
