Old-fashioned elegance meets modern luxury at the Renaissance Hotel, which will charm you as soon as you step through the door. The vast, newly-refurbished reception area, with its chandeliers, grand piano, huge white pillars and leather sofas, whisks you back to the 1970s, when the hotel was built. But don't be fooled - there's nothing retro about the first-class facilities, which include a health club, a sophisticated restaurant and air-conditioned, soundproofed rooms. And the amazing views of the runway, right behind the hotel, ensure you'll never forget you're in the 21st century. f

Dining

Watch the action on the runway through the giant windows in the light and airy Duo restaurant, which is open for breakfast and dinner.
Breakfast is served from 6am to 10am, with dinner from 6pm to 10pm - and the chef might even cook your food in front of you in the open kitchen.
For dinner, you can choose from the international buffet or order a la carte. The fresh, seasonal menu changes, but a typical meal could be hand-made potato gnocchi with wild mushrooms and sage, followed by shepherd's pie with carrots, with English custard tart with strawberries and cream to finish.
Bar food is served in the sophisticated Duo bar, with its subdued, coloured lighting, leather booths and wall-mounted widescreen TV. Food is available from 10am until midnight or later. The hotel also has a branch of Starbucks.
