Reason Travelodge has named a floor after every Beatle except Ringo

Every floor at a Merseyside Travelodge has been named after a member of the Beatles - except Ringo.

The hotel, located at Liverpool's John Lennon Airport, has floors named after John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, Cilla Black and Paul O'Grady- some of Merseyside's biggest names.

Despite this, Ringo Starr is not given a floor. The ECHO contacted Travelodge for some clarification on why the legendary drummer has been left out.

The hotel chain claims the names are a result of a survey carried out across the UK in 2018, in which they asked for Britain's favourite Scousers. Cilla Black came out on top, followed by Macca, John Lennon, George Harrison and Paul O'Grady.

Coming in at sixth was Ringo, who was instead given a meeting room named after him. A Travelodge spokesperson said: "The company surveyed the nation to seek their favourite Scousers and has paid homage to the top Scousers by naming each hotel floor at Liverpool John Lennon Airport and the three meeting rooms after them."

Also on the list of favourite Scousers was Steven Gerrard, and Sir Ken Dodd.
