Click for travel directions Ricoh Arena is a name that will be known to many football fans, as it is the home ground of Coventry City football club. This massive modern stadium can seat over 32,000 people. In addition to the football pitch, the Ricoh Arena development contains a spacious exhibition hall, a casino, a shopping centre and even a hotel: the De Vere Ricoh Arena. This makes it a very diverse destination, regardless of whether you are a football fan or not. In addition to sporting events, several huge bands have played gigs at the arena. The hotel is a De Vere ‘Venue’, meaning that it is a great choice for business delegates and guests looking to hold an event here. However, it has the facilities to accommodate for a comfortable leisure stay.

The De Vere Ricoh Arena Hotel Coventry lies a couple of miles off Junction 3 of the M6 motorway, so it is easy to access and a convenient location for a stopover on a long journey. Coventry city centre is roughly three miles from the venue, and nearby attractions include Warwick Castle, Cadbury World and the historic town of Stratford upon Avon. The hotel has an acclaimed modern design, one that some may find lacking in atmosphere but that others will love. This West Midlands hotel has 80 bedrooms, over half of which have inimitable views towards the pitch. Thanks to an innovative use of space, pitch rooms can be transformed into Executive Boxes during football matches, as well as syndicate rooms for meetings.

There are 54 meeting rooms at the De Vere Ricoh Arena Hotel Coventry, including the executive syndicate rooms. Conference spaces with natural light are available, and the hotel can provide all the necessary presentation equipment on request. Unfortunately, as a result of its location, the De Vere Ricoh Arena has charged wireless internet access, unlike the complimentary connection provided in most De Vere Venues. If you find yourself with some free time the hotel offers a gym, sauna and steam room, as well as a youth gym for the under 16s. The arena also contains a casino.
