Travelling for bleisure? Eat and stay at the Fox Connaught
Travelling for business? Or for leisure? Or maybe for bleisure!
Whatever your reason, come and stay with us at the Fox Connaught in the heart of London’s Docklands.
Have you ever heard of the term bleisure? It was a new one for us but it describes a practice that most of us have done at one time or another. Bleisure describes atrip that combines both business and leisure. Typically it involves adding extra days to a business trip in order to relax and explore a new area. That makes the Fox Connaught the perfect place to stay as there is so much to do and see around here - and we’re very close to the ExCeL Centre, Canary Wharf, the City of London, and London City airport for overseas visitors.
Visit the Fox Connaught - a traditional Docklands pub
The Fox Connaught is a family-owned, independently run traditional public house in the heart of London’s Docklands. The bar has retained its original charm and is the perfect place to eat and drink or stay the night.
The Fox Connaught is a little bit special. It delivers 'real' London, with all its quirks in the heart of the historical Docklands. We offer free parking to all guests in a secure carpark or you can find us on the DLR or via the Elizabeth Line from the West End.
Bleisure in the Docklands
From the City of London and Canary Wharf for business to the ExCeL centre for conferences and exhibitions - the Docklands is close to some of the greatest business locations in the world. We’re also only a stone’s throwaway from brilliant entertainment in the West End, at the O2, and in the Docklands itself. There is always something going on!
We’re also only minutes from City Airport, so the perfect choice for visitors to our great city or for those passing through on their way to an adventure.
Watch your favourite sports whilst you’re away on a business trip
When away on business, you still want your home comforts including watching your favourite sporting games. From football to rugby, including league, international games and the Six Nations, we show the most popular games in our comfortable lounge. Join with other fans and benefit from our very special £15 burger and beer deal that’s on during any sporting event.
