The hotel seems a good fit and would work well with the conferencing & banqueting facilities already in place at the stadium. What size of hotel would they be thinking of though? The footprint in the NE corner doesn't seem all that big...?'"
I think if they do the hotel idea it will be built outwards to wear the disability parking currently is. You never know they may relocate that parking or Tesco may allocate some of theirs to them since that carpark is never full. In that case the hotel can stretch the entire way around that area; it also may be built over the East stand so the hotel forms part of the second tier etc. I reckon yo could fit a 100 rooms easy in there and you already have the conference rooms and hospitality to be used as the food and drinks areas of the hotel as it is.
BIG MONEY!
