Furthermore, those arriving at the hotel late in the evening can also enjoy the 24-hour lounge bar – Bar 303 – which offers an extensive wine menu and exclusive champagnes and whose intimate feel, set around an open fire, are certain to appeal.
As an added extra, the hotel provides the use of 168 parking spaces for hotel guests and restaurant diners free of charge. This offer is available seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
