The hotel has a polished, modern exterior, and inside it feels spacious and well organised from the moment you arrive. The lobby area is open and calm, offering space to meet, plan or unwind. Communal areas are designed for ease, helping you move through your stay without unnecessary effort or disruption.

There is also an indoor pool, which provides a useful option for low-impact recovery or gentle movement after the event. The space is practical and easy to access, helping you fit sessions around your schedule. Being centrally located also means you can step outside for short walks to stay loose, without needing to plan additional travel.
