.

This venue is located in a city renowned for its historic and leisure attractions however, the hotel site is located some distance from these areas and has minimal impact on the venueís business proposition.

To attract the weekend leisure market this venue may promote their facilities and nearby activities. These supplement its business services, which can stand alone and are only modestly impacted by facilities and activities aimed toward weekend guests.

The hotel's significant leisure facilities are on the ground floor but a 3 minute walk away from the meeting spaces so do not distract delegates attending meetings here.
