Holiday Inn 范堡罗

A grand, 1902 Farnborough hotel with a restaurant, a garden and a health club with an indoor pool

Four miles from the M3 motorway and two miles from central Farnborough, Holiday Inn® Farnborough hotel is a great base for exploring Hampshire and Surrey. Leave your car in the free car park and head to North Camp station, a mile and a half away, for connections to Gatwick Airport (LGW). A direct train to London from Farnborough Main station, five minutes away by car, takes around 35 minutes.

You can meet penguins, parrots and toucans at Birdworld, nine miles away, or have a flutter at Ascot Racecourse, 20 minutes' drive from the hotel. For a real adrenaline buzz, the thrill rides at both Legoland® Windsor Resort and Thorpe Park Resort are 30 minutes away by car.

The hotel's 10 meeting and function rooms are great for hosting business meetings, events or weddings. The largest has space for up to 200 guests. In warm weather, your party can spill out into the large garden and patio. The FIVE exhibition centre is only half a mile away.

Work out in the Fitness Centre, or take a dip in the heated indoor pool. Lie back in the steam room, or let the bubbles do the work in the Jacuzzi. Relax with a glass of wine in the bar, or enjoy a hearty British dinner in the airy conservatory restaurant. There's free WiFi, and kids stay and eat free.
