Bromley Council has approved plans to build a new hotel at the Biggin Hill Airport in Kent.

Designed by EPR Architects, the four-star hotel will have 76 rooms, a number of meeting rooms and a brasserie style restaurant.

The hotel will be separated into two elements – an air-side public areas and a quieter bedroom wing.

The public areas will have terraces with uninterrupted views across the airfield to the terminal building and the neighbouring 'green belt' land.

Air crews staying at the hotel will have their own lounge, kitchen facilities and a health and fitness suite.

Biggin Hill airport is mainly used by private and corporate jets. The airport played a major role as an RAF base in the Battle Of Britain during WWII.
