A HOTEL has unveiled the ultimate getaway for Jeremy Clarkson fans – a suite with the presenter’s face staring down at your bed.
The £90-a-night Clarkson Suite has been unveiled at Mexborough’s Empress Building – and is just one of a number of rooms devoted to local celebrities, including the Doncaster-born Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Clarkson’s Farm and Top Gear host.
There is also a Kevin Keegan room.
The black and white image also features cheeky quotes, entitled Clarkson’s Rules of Life, which read: “Always go faster than strictly necessary, never apologise for having fun and laugh loudly, drive hard and live even harder.”
A spokesperson for the hotel said: “The suite is in honour of Jeremy Clarkson, the outspoken motoring journalist, television presenter, and writer who redefined automotive entertainment with wit, irreverence, and undeniable charisma.
“Best known for his tenure on Top Gear and later The Grand Tour, Clarkson has taken audiences on wild, globe-trotting adventures, combining horsepower with humour.
“Beyond cars, he’s made a mark in British broadcasting through his sharp commentary and, more recently, his unexpectedly heartfelt take on rural life in Clarkson’s Farm, earning him admiration from a new generation of viewers.
“The Clarkson Suite captures his bold spirit and unapologetic style in a spacious, characterful suite perfect for those who appreciate horsepower, hearty laughs, and a touch of countryside grit with their luxury.
“Relax in a luxurious super king-size bed, or opt for two comfortable single beds and rejuvenate in your private en-suite, featuring a spacious double rainfall shower with premium fittings.”
The room also includes a 60 inch digital TV, Wi-Fi, full-length mirror, wardrobe, office desk and dressing table, a mini bar and fridge, safe, iron and ironing board and a tea maker and coffee machine.
The room spec adds: “With modern comforts and solar-powered energy, The Clarkson Suite is an accelerated choice for a stylish stay.”
Housed within the town’s Empress Building, the apartments are designed to preserve the architectural beauty of a bygone era while incorporating modern comforts that discerning travellers expect, a spokesperson added.
“Each suite has been thoughtfully named after notable local figures, from actors to athletes, creating a meaningful connection to the town’s storied past.”
