Overview

• Chloe Haynes, 21, was found dead in her room at the Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool on September 10, 2022, after a heavy wardrobe fell on her following a night out.
• Police initially arrested three men on suspicion of murder but later ruled her death an accident and released them without charge.
• Liverpool Council’s Environmental Health department launched an investigation and issued prohibition notices over the safety of wardrobes and windows in the hotel room.
• Britannia Hotels withdrew its appeals against the notices after providing evidence that it had carried out required safety improvements.
• A pre-inquest review originally scheduled for early June 2025 has been postponed, leaving the investigation without a timeframe and Chloe’s family still awaiting answers.
