The 171-guestroom Hilton Hotel overlooks the The Ageas Bowl
RB Sport & Leisure Holdings plc (parent company of Hampshire Cricket Ltd.) are delighted to announce the completion of the Hilton at The Ageas Bowl, Southampton.
Featuring stunning architecture and design, the 171-guestroom Hilton Hotel overlooks the home of Hampshire Cricket. The hotel introduces a range of dining options including the Spa Café, the Lakeview Sports Bar and all-day dining restaurant BEEFY’S, serving English cuisine, and providing a relaxing setting for business lunches, sport breaks, drinks or special events.
This is a momentous day for the The Ageas Bowl and the culmination of more than 10 years of blood, sweat and the odd tear. I am immensely proud of the dedication and commitment of all of those who have stuck with the project and seen it over the line, including Eastleigh Borough Council. This is now, undoubtedly one of the best cricket grounds in the world and we look forward to the next phase of our exciting journey.
