Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the development upon the character and appearance of the area including the special interest of Southgate Circus Conservation Area
  • the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers with particular regard to light, outlook and privacy
  • the highway network

What decided it

The principle of a hotel use had already been established through the prior grant of planning permission for a 66-bed hotel on the same site, and the proposed development would not introduce a new use or result in an over-concentration of hotel uses in the locality.
