Facilities

The Elite Athlete Centre and Hotel is the first and only hotel designed specifically with athletes in mind.

Whether its removing those annoying standby lights that illuminate most hotel rooms; having open storage and wardrobes to accommodate large sports luggage; a relaxation room with special ergonomic seating/furniture for athletes to kick back and recuperate; or having every space designed to be accessible for our para athlete guests, our facilities are unparalleled in the UK.

Add to that our inspiring and aspirational location at the heart of Loughborough University's world leading sports facilities, and overlooking the running track and field that started the careers of our most celebrated sports people such as Sebastian Coe, Paula Radcliffe, Tanni Grey-Thompson, Clive Woodward, and you'll appreciate how our facilities will inspire elite athletes to be the best they can be.

Did you know?

Our strong association with elite performance sport is boosted by the number of students, alumni and Loughborough-based athletes that choose the campus as their training base; the number of national sport governing bodies that house their main headquarters here; and the decision in 2012 to use Loughborough as the official preparation camp for Team GB ahead of the Olympics.
